could discuss with you some phases Of
the international situation with which
the government at Washington has
had to deal since the world war began.
| wish that all you and all Americans
could know as l have been privileged
to know with what infinite patience
and skillful hand the heavy laden man
who but few years ago served YOU
as governor has guided the destiny Of
the republic.
NO man can realize what he has
done and is doing for the United
States of America, for the world. for
-
great thing to be secretary to the
president. but it is a wonderful thing
to be associated with a president like
Woodrow Wilson. Some day, great
historian will tell the story of what he
has endured, of the problems he has
met, of the scrupulous care and pa
thence he has taken to preserve the
rights Of America and to keep free
and open the processes Of liberty. Chill
dren in the schools and young men In
the colleges will read in the text

high ideals Of practical statesman
