President Appeals To Amer
leans In An Address
NEED OF THE HOUR
Nations Executive Opens An
Nations Executive Opens An
nual Session National Citi-
zenship Council
LAssoci.ted Press pispatch.l

Washington, May 24.-An appeal
for re dedication of the American
people of the aims and purposes of
their government as set forth in the
preamble of the constitution. was
made by President Harding today,
in an address at the opening ses.
sion here of the national American
council, an organization recently
formed to encourage better Ameri-
can 4citizenshipy
Such rededication.. the president
said, would furnish to the nation "a
commanding and dominating ma
sionaI interest" which. he said. had
been lacking since the end of the
world war; Quoting the preamble
MIR. Harding said it constituted the
complete statement of our nations
and the inspiration to every effort to
make one and all of us better citi-
zens."
Democracy Is On Trial.
While deploring the lack of de-
finite common purpose. such as was
set up by the war, the president
said that he had misgivings with
respect to the common observation
nowadays, sometimes altogether TOO
easily and lightly made. that democ :
acy is on trial"
I'VE will be quite safe in admit ;
ting" he added. that many of the
institutions which have been set UP
in the hope that through them the
st aims of democracy might be
realized, are on trial. We will make
no mistake if we confess that the
attitudes and conduct of many peo-
pie who profess devotion to demo-
tic institutions, are on trial But
u this may be admitted without
implying that any important part oil
society is seeking an alternative OF
democracy.
Facing Complex Situation.
There is much questioning OF
avs and MEANS and institutions. but
as to the fundamentals 1t certainly
can be said that never was our
country more firmly committed to
the board ideals and purposes of
democracy and never before were so
many other countries and peoples
seeking to establish like commit
ments.
Human society has never faced
a more complex or difficult situa-
ton; and il is therefore of first inn
portance that all Americans be
rought to understand the underly-
ing purposes of this commonwealth.
and to fix firmly in their hearts the
determination to maintain institu-
tons capable of progressive evolu-
ton and development. along the
lines of our fundamental principles.
