Americas Pledge to the World
We went into the war and ended
it. In any material sense, we had
nothing to gain. We fought to
make the world better place for
mankind. Nm proclaiming our pur-
pose, we held up our country and
its institutions as the hope of hui

be redeemed AS our Holy Father,

on the principles of reasonable lib
erty, and of Christian civilization,
are destined to have the chief role
in the restoration of peace and or

ciples, when the violence of these
tempestuous days shall have pass

Our Present Situation
Though the war is ended, our
country is not yet restored to its
normal condition. On every side,
there is unrest and agitation. The
conflict of class with class makes
progress impossible 1t threatens
TO undo the splendid things which
the union of all our people accom-
plished. 1t is importing into our
country the very evils which brought
disaster on Europe. If America is
to be preserved, for its own sake
and for the sake of humanity,
remedy must be found for our pres
ent situation.
Need of a Solid Foundation \
This is not time for make
shifts. The facts are before us,

be set aside with mere expedients or
formalities that smooth the surface
OF things, but leave the virus be-
