Woodrow Wilson, president of the
United States of America,
"A proclamation to the people of
the United States:
ut becomes my sad duty TO an
nounce officially the death of Theo-
dore Roosevelt, president of the Unit
ed States from September IA. 1901, to
March 4, 1909, which occurred at his
home at Sycamore HILL Oyster Bay,
N. j., at AIS o'clock in the morning
of January 6, 1918. In his death the
United States has lost one of its most
distinguished and patriotic citizens,
who has endeared himself to the peo-
pie by his strenuous devotion to their
interests and to the public interests
of his country.
"As president of the police board
of his native city, as member of the,
legislature and governor of his state,
as civil service commissioner, as as
sistant secretary of the navy, as vice
president, and as president of the
United States, he displayed admins

conducted the affairs of these various
offices with a concentration of effort
and a watchful care which permitted

he had definitely set for himself
in the war with Spain he display
ed singular initiative and energy and
distinguished himself among the COM
manders of the army in the field. AS
president he awoke the nation to the
dangers of private control which
lurked in our financial and industrial
systems 1t was by thus arresting the
attention and stimulating the purpose
of the country that he opened the
way for subsequent necessary and
beneficient reforms.
His private life was characterized
by simplicity, a virtue and an af-
lection worthy of all admiration ana
emulation by the people of America.
'In testimony of the respect in
which his memory is held by the gov
eminent and people of the United
States, | do hereby direct that the
flags of the White House and the sew
eral departmental buildings be dis
played at half mast for period of 30
days. and that suitable military and
naval honOrs under the orders of the
secretaries of war and navy be rem
