follows:
MY lord mayor, Indies and gentle
men;
you have made me feel IN n way
that Is deeply delightful the generous
welcome which YOU ave accorded me
and back OF IL | know there lies The
same sort OF feeling for the great peo-
pie whom / have h privilege OF rep
rescnting.
There Is feeling Of cordially, fra
ternity and friendship between the two
great nations, and ms ! have gone
from place 20 place and been made
everywhere 10 feel the pulse of sym
pathy that Is now beating between Us,
! have been led 10 some very serious
thoughts as 10 what the basis OF u
all IL.
Friendship BASED ON Principle.
For I think YOU will agree with me
h a friendship Is not "A mere senti-
ment. Patriotism IN not n mere sem
timent. II ~ based upon n principle
upon the principle that leads a man
to give more than he demands. sim
Harry friendship " based not merely
upon affection. hut upon common ser
vice. Tho mar IN not your friend VINO
IL not willing 10 serve YOU, and YOU
are not his friend unless you are VIII
ing TO serve him, And out OF that
impulse of common Interest and de-
sire OF common service arises mat mo-
BILE feeling which we consecrate ah
friendship.
And 50 10 does seem To me that
the theme hat we must nave In n
minds now In this great day OF settle
ment IL the theme OF common interest
n TIE determination OF what II ~
hat Is our common Interest You
know that heretofore. the world has
beer governed, OF at any rate me at
tempt has been made to govern il. by
partnership of interest, and that they
have broken down.
Interest Does Not Hind.
Interest does not bind men to-
gether. Interest separates mon. For
the there IN the slightest de-
interests, the joaldusies begin 60
spring up. There Is only the thing
hat can bind peoples together ana
hat Is common devotion TO right.
Ever since thc history OF liberty
began men have talked about their
right and IL has taken several hun
| dred years 10 make them perceive thht
tho principal condition of right ~ dn-
" and that unless a man performs nv
ANN hhNL ~ - w.
IL rs a fine correlation OF the influ-
ence OF duty that right is the epui-
poiae m balance OF society.
{ Ae3 so when We anaiyze the pres
/ ans situstion and tho future That We
! now h,;ve Co mould and control u
! seeasa 10 mo there In no other Thought
: than that that can guide us. You
hnew that tho United States has al
ways felt from the very beginning Q,
I her story that she must keep herself
separate from any kind Of connection
with European politics.
Il wan 10 say very frankly 10 YOU
that she IL not now Interested IN Flu.
ropean politics, but she ~ interested
in the partnership OF right hetwcer
America and Europe. IL the futur'
had nothing Tor IA but a now attempt
Ia keep the world al "A right polse by q
balance OF power the United state'
would take no interest, because she
will toin no combination OF power
witch Is not "A combination az all OF
us. She IN not interested merely Ia
tho peace OF Europe. but IN the peace
OF tho world,
A Difficult settlement.
Therefore. IL seems 10 me that ~
tho settlement which Is just ahead OF
