being your reward is the gratitude OF
the people as whole. 1t may have
been poorly expressed at times, but
this nation of more than a hundred
millions of people is grateful to you.
We are all grateful to you. We wish
you could always be with us, but you
cannot, nor would you care to, per-
haps. One by one you will go, until
finally at that last Great Day, by the
order of the Great Captain of us all.
the roll will be called on the other
side and every man of you will an
swer "Here" and the Grand Army of
the Republic will be united once more.
But the memories of your deeds will
ever remain, emblazoned on the pag-
es of history and cherished in the
hearts of the people of this republic.
And now, you men of the American
Legion, and you veterans of the
World war, who for some reason have
not joined the Legion, what of you?
And let me say right here / cannot
see how any man eligible to this great
democratic fraternity can fail to de-
sire to join it. You veterans of this
war should unite in one great band,
rot for personal gain or advance
ment, nor from mere mercenary mo-
tives, but for the purpose of seeing
to it that the fruits of the victory
which you helped to win for the world
shall not be wasted as it were in riot
Gus living.
You men, four millions of you, the
| pick of the nations manhood, do you
realize the tremendous force you can
be for the good of the United States
of America? Do you realize how, If
/ you do not watch out, your great pow
er will be abused, how designing poll
ticians will try to buy you with finan-
cial rewards, to cloud your vision with
dust clouds of fiattery and warp your
judgment by personal appeals based
on the ties of comradeship. You will
be more likely to be deceived by men
of your own number than by outsid-
ers, for you will be on your guard as
to the others. But men whom the
Huns could not deceive ought to be
able to take care of themselves here.
Your experiences in this war were
greatly varied. Some of you got no
further than an army camp on this
side, while others run the gauntlet of
the submarines and put in months
and years in the fighting areas in
Europe.
Some of you were at Chateau
/ Thierry, some in the Argonne Wood,
some on sea chasing submarines, but
you all came home men, even though
you left US as boys.
| Some of your comrades never will
return from France, but their MEM
cries will serve to keep you and the
whole nation united for the future
/ The hardships and dangers and tor
ments you endured were such that
few of you would care to undergo
them again, but still I am confident
that the memories of your experiences
in this, your great adventure, viii be
cherished by you as priceless.
/ 1t is for you to take up the burdens
of citizenship that these men of the
Civil war are laying down. Your
Iproblems are largely the same as
theirs. You will meet them as did
they Neither autocracy nor anarchy
will find many supporters in your
ranks You have not risked your
lives for your country, to have the life
blood of the republic Slapped by trail
tors, whether they be of high or low
lestate.

ed in cooking! How the people en-
dured food control and railroad con-
troll and every other imaginable con-
troll as long as they believed 1T was
for the real good of the soldiers or
for winning the war.
i am Just old fashioned enough to
believe that this remarkable demon
stration by the American people was
because the people were convinced
that the safety of America depended
on winning the war for the side of
France and Great Britain. 1t was
our fight to a great extent before we
entered it and America tried to make
UP for lost time.
Can it be that a nation which so
gloriously threw itself into the tray
to win will sit back and let the forces
of disorder and Bolshevism undo the
work of our forefathers, of these Civil
war veterans and of this great world
war? I do not believe 1t. When the
people get their second wind this
country will be Strengthened out. We
will soon get out of the stage OF re-
action to that of action once more and
then the force of public opinion Will
Ido what statutes cannot do.
You know some people always want
to try to beat the other fellow by get
ltin@ statute enacted. This is folly
unless public opinion is behind 1t.
At the risk of taking too much time

ideas. War begun when the union
itself was directly involved and not
before. The war with Spain came
only when the great heart OF the
American people could no longer en-
dure conditions almost at our doors
The sinking of the Maine may nave
been the spark that caused the ex-
pIosion, but it was the calm, cool, I'M
vanished statement of fact by Red
field Proctor of Vermont, I'm the Unit,
ed States senate that really convinced
the nation that conditions were unen-
durable.
So in this World war, no fair-mlnd-
ed person can say that we entered the
conflict until a continuance OF our
self respect as a nation demanded IL.
Many of US thought we waited zoo
long, but be that as it may, Wnen we
did finally admit officially that tne
conflict across the sea was our war,
this great nation was united as never
before for war. 1t is lamentabie tnat
at that late day we were no peteer
