was the ever impelling question; How
can humanity justify or God forgive?
Human hate demands no such toll;
ambition and greed must be denied
it. If misunderstanding must take the
blame, then let us Danish it, and let
understanding rule and make good
will regnant everywhere. All OF us
demand liberty and justice. There
cannot be one without the other, and
they mnst be held the unquestioned
possession of all peoples. Inherent
rights are of God; and the tragedies
of the world originate in their at
tempted denial. the world today is
infringing their enjoyment by arminS
to defend or deny, when simple sani-
ty calls for their recognition through
common understandings.
War Makes Changes
Out of the cataclysm of the world
war came new fellOwships, new con-
viCtions, new aspirations. 1t is ours
to make the most of them. A world
staggering with debt needs its bur
den lifted. Humanity which has
been shocked by wanton destruction
would minimize the agencies of that
destruction. Contemplating the meas
ureless cost of war and the contlnu-
ing burden of armament, all thought
full peoples wish for real limitation of
armament and would like war outlaw
ed. In soberest reflection the worlds
hundreds of millions who pay in
peace ana die in war wish their
statesmen to turn the expenditures
for destruction into means of con-

for those who live and fellow after.
1T is not alone that the world can
not readjust itself and cast aside the
excess burdens without relief from
/ the leaders of men. War has grown
progressively cruel and more de-
structive from the first recorded con-
| flict to this pregnant day, and the
reverse order would more become our
| boosted civilization.
Gentlemen of the conference, the
| United States welcomes you with I'M
selfish hands. We harbor no fears;
we have no sordid ends to serve; we
suspect no enemy; we contemplate or
apprehend no conquest. Content with
what we have, we seek nothing which
| is another's. We only wish to do
with you that finer, rooIer thing
which no nation can do alone. Z :
Need Net, Humble Prids
/ I'VE wisfilito sit with you at the
table of international understanding
and good will. In good conscience we
are eager to meet you frankly and
invite and offer cooperation. The

of the existing order and the realiza-

out sacrifice, not by one of us, but
by all of us.
Il do not mean surrendered rights,
or narrowed freedom, or denied as
pirations, or ignored national neces-
stiles. Our republic would no more
ask for these than it would give. No
pride need be humbled, no nationali-
| ty submerged, but would nave a
mergence of minds committing all of
us to less preparation for war
more enjoyment of fortunate peace.
The higher hopes come of the
spirit of our coming together. 1t is
but just to recognize varying neeus
and peculiar positions. Nothing can
be accomplished in regard to nation
al apprehensions.
Rather we should act together &c
