Washington, March 4.-President
Harding's inaugural address was as
follows:
My countrymen-When one surveys
the world about him after the great
storm, noting the marks Of destruction
and yet rejoicing in the ~ruggedness of
the things which withstood 1t, If he Is
an American he breathes the clarified
atmosphere with a strange mingling
of regret and new hope. We have seen
a world passion spend Its fury, but we
contemplate our republic mistaken,
and hold our civilization secure. Liber-
tty-liberty within the law-and CIV
~ilization are inseperable, and though
both were threatened, We find them
now secure. and there comes to Amer
leans the profound assurance that our
representative government Is the high
est expression and sures guaranty Of
both.
Of the sOlemnity Of this occasion, feel
ing the emotions which no one may
know until he senses the great weight
Of responsibility for himself, / must
utter my belief In the divine insplra-
ton of the founding fathers. Surely
there must have been Gods intent In
the making Of this e world republic.
Ours is an organic law which had but
one ambiguity and we saw that effaced
in a baptism of sacrifice and blood.
with union maintained, the nation su-
preme and its concord inspiring. We
have een the world rivet Its hopeful
gaze on the great truths on which the
founders wrought. We have seen civil,
human and religious liberty verified
and glorifed. In the beginning, the
world scoffed at our experiment,
today our foundations Of political
and social belief stand mistaken, a
precious Inheritance to ourselves, an
inspiring example Of freedom and CIV
~jlization to all mankind. Let us ex-
press renewed and strengthened de-
votion, In grateful reverence for the
immortal beginning, and utter our con-
fidence In the supreme fulfllment.
Progress Proves Wisdom.
The recorded progress Of our re-
