martial air and put every one in tune
with the spirit Of the occasion.

Dempsey and Fulton have furnished
proof that they are the two best heavy

essarily be accepted as the logical chal-
longer for the championship. Willard
could not evade a challenge from the vic

would place himself in position more
embarrassing IL possible than the one in

Public opinion unquestionably would
force the title holder to fight or retire.

''This is therefore the war of all
wars which labor should support and
support with all its concentrated power.
The world cannot be safe mems lives
cannot be secure no man IS rights can
be confidently and successfully assert
ed against the rule and mastery of arbi-
trary groups and special interests, so
long as governments like that which,
after long generalization, drew Austria
and Germany into this war are permit
ted to control the destinies and the
daily fortunes of men and nations, plot
ting while honest men work, laying the
fires of which innocent men, women and
children are to be the fuel.
"You know the nature of this wal,
1t is a war which industry must sus-
tain. The army of laborers at home is
as important, as essential, as the army
of fighting men in the far fields Of
actual battle. And the laborer is not
only needed as much as the soldier; it
is his war. The soldier is his cham
pton and representative.
"To fail to win would be to imperil
everything that the laborer has striv'
en- fer and held dear since freedom
first held its dawn and his struggle
for justice began. The soldiers at the
front know this. 1t steels their mus
cles to think of it. They are crusad-
ers. They are fighting for no selfish
advantage for their own nation. They
would despise anyone who fought for
the selfish advantage of any nation.
They are giving their lives that homes
everywhere, as well as the homes they
low in America, may be kept sacred
and safe, and men everywhere be free
as thy insist upon being free. They
are fighting for the ideals, Of their
own land; great ideals, immortal
ideals, ideals which shall light the
way for all men to the places where
~iustics is done and men live with lifted
heads and emancipated spirits, That
is the reason they fight with solemn
joy and are invincible.
"Let us make this, therefore, a day
Of fresh comprehension, not only of
what We are about, and of renewed and
clear-eypd resolution, but a day of con
sccration also, in which we devote our
selves without pause or limit to the
great task of setting our country and
the whole world free to render justice
to all and of making ii impossible for
small groups of political rulers any
where to disturb our peace or the peace
of the world or in any way to make
tools and puppets of those upon whose
consent and upon whose power thei.
own authority and their own very ex-
%istenee depend.
