with which we take up the task, let
me repeat for our nation, we shall
give no people just cause to make war
upon US. We hold no national pre-

venge, we do not hate, we do not
covet; we dream of no conquest nor
boast OF armed progress.

inherently wrong, something out OF
accord with the ideals of representa-

our citizenship turns it's activity to
private gain amid defensive war while
another Is fighting, sacrificing or dy-
ing for national preservation.
Out of such universal service will
pose. new confidence and consecra-

With the nationwide induction OF

light, the city being transformed into
Americas brightest star on the night
of Armistice Day. In honor of that
historic anniversary and in welcome
to the conference on limitation Of

lights and flood lights will be trained
upon many other spots.

yond imagination" say members OF
the committee arranging for the illu.
