Grafton, the American people reached
the only decision which was possible
from the standpoint of their own ma
tional safety. Congress declared that
state of war existed between the
United States and the Imperial Gov
ernment of Germany, and this coun-
try united with the other liberal ma
tons of the earth to crush the power
which sought to erect on the ruins of
democracy world1empire greater
than that of Greece or Rome or the
Califs.
The President has said, with the
wonderful ability which he has to ex-
press aptly a great thought in alsingle
phrase, that "the world must be made
safe for democracy" In that thought
there is. more than the establishment
of liberty and sclf-governmentf for all
nations,- there is in it the hope of an
enduring peace.
T lido not know in the annals of his
tory an instance where people, with
truly democratic institutions, permit
ed their government to wage war
of aggression. a war of conquest.
Faithful to their treaties, sympathct-
ic with others seeking self-govern-
ment, real democracics, whether mon
archial or Republican in their. forms
