WILSON TALKS a. MINUTES
Gull Text OF the Fourth OF July Ad-
dress OF thee President Dcliy-
cred by -Four Minute Men.

The following message from
President Wilson to the people of
the United States was delivered in
every theater in Tulsa last night
and elsewhere throughout h g
United States by four minute-men
who appeared as the presidents
spokesmen for that purpose:
You are met, my fellow citizens,
10 commemorate the signing OF
that Declaration of Independence
which marked the awakening of
new spirit in the lives of nations.
Since the birth of our republic. we
have seen this spirib grow. We have
heard the demand and watched the
struggle for self-government spread
and triumph among many peoples.
We have come 10 regard the right
TO political liberty as the common
right of humankind. Year after
year, within the security of our
borders, we have continued to re-
1o!ee in the peaceful increase OF
freedom and democracy throughout
the world. And yet now, suddenly,
we are confronted with a menace
which endangers everything that we

have won and everything that the
world has won.
An Old Insolcncc.
In all its old insolence. with all its
ancient cruelty and injustice. milf
tary autocracy has again armed it.
self against tho pacific >~hopes OF
men. Having suppressed self-gov-
rernment among Its own people by
an organization maintained in part
by falsehood and treachery. It has
set out TO impose its will upon its
neighbors and upon u.s. One by
one, II has compelled every civilized
nation In the world either 10 fore
go its aspirations or to declare war
in their defense We find ourselves
fighting again for our national ex-
istence. We are face TO face with
the necessity OF asserting anew the
fundamental right OF free men to
make their own laws and choose
their own allegiance, or else permit
humanity to become the victim or
ruthless ambition that Is deter
mined to destroy what II can not
master
Against its threat the llberty-lov
ing people OF the world have risen
and allied themselves. No fear has
deferred them, and no bribe OF ma
terial well-b being has held them
back. They have made sacrifices
such as the world has never known
.before. and their resistance in the
face OF death and suffering has
proved that the aim which animates
the German effort can never hope
to rule the spirit of mankind.
Against the horror OF military con-
quest. against the emptiness OF liv-
ing in mere bodily contentment.
against the desolation of becoming
part of state that knows neither
truth nor honor, the world has so
revolted that even people long DOM
mated and suppressed by force have
