United States. the preamble to the
Declaration OF Independence by
Thomas jefferson.
Such was the passion Of these
philosophers for liberty. Others
coming after them praised or de-
Tended liberty. doubtless with no
less ardor: Vergniaud, Mirabeau
and Nine. de Stael. who exclaimed
Head and heart unite in love of
liberty, as in love of the Supreme
Being; Lamartine exalted the
liberal ideas of the revolution;
Michelet called the eighteenth CEN
fury "le Grand Steele: Gambetts
loved France. crushed, because she
was the liberator of nations; and
finally Hugo. at the very hour of
oppressed liberty. sent forth in his
"Chatiments" his terrible and aveng-
ming voice:
Debout, vous Gui dormez!-car
celui qui me suit Car celui qui
m'envoie en- avant la Premiere
C'est ronge Libcrte, c'2st lie geant
Lumiere!"
II I am especially fond Of the
philosophers of France of the
eighteenth century, it is because the
idea Of liberty was more fecund
with them. France has made her
own their love of liberty so ardently
expressed. France took the way
which they pointed out to her.
France abolished inequality. every
sign OF servitude, and established
republic whose motto gave to all
the supreme ideal: Liberty
equality" And then our generous
nation. moved by the sentiment
formerly uttered by Jesus, Love
one another" generous nation
of ours, for which peoples are men
above everything. and which. as
Hugo said. besides visible frontiers
has invisible ones which are only
laid down where the human race
does not speak It's tongue. that Is to
say. at the very limits of the civil
li7ed world: this nation continued
its march across Europe. spreading
new ideals thst had just brought
to 1t such happy victories. These
new peoples saw in France liberia

smitten. like France, with independ-
ence and destined to become the
perpetual ally of France in all
struggles for the universal triumph
of liberty, her companion in sacri-
Ace, her glorious sister in victory.
These are the dement's which lib
erty, ideal of French thought. has
given to the world. am proud to be
able to lift up in praise before you
the cause of France which has done
so much for liberty.
IF one would heap up whatever
each nation has given In blood. In
gold and in efforts of all kinds for
those things which would only serve
the world. the pyramid of France
would go mounting sky-high."
In conclusion, ladies and gentle
men. may I complete this beautiful
symbol of Michelet by saying: II
such a pyramid could be raised one
would have to place at its summit
the torch of liberty whose fame. in
termingling with thai of American
liberty. would il)umine the world
pointing out to humanity the way

BY RENE PoNTH1EU OF PARIS.

If you will glance at the works Of
our great poets, historians and phi
losophers. you will frequently find
praise Of liberty, speeches in defense
of liberty. odes to liberty What bet
ter proof to show the important place
which the idea of liberty holds in
French thought? We are, it is said,
the sons of Athens. never hesitating
to cast out a talented citizen who
mcnaces liberty: and of Rome as
we'll. where even the all-powerful
Caesar did not dare to take the title
Of king. because it meant to Romans
tho complete suppression OF liberty.
How can one then fail to understand
that not only has liberty for us great
charm and attraction. but that it is
really the goal of all our efforts. Is
rerllv our ideal?
When Voltaire placed his hanSs
on the grandson OF your illustrious
Franklin. he uttered these words,
God and liberty" thus indicating to
the child the two stars which were
to guide him through life. This star
of liberty which shines SO radiantly
in the skv of France by other Magi
before and since the time of Voltaire,
has been pointed cut to our nation,

Of those French philosophers Of tn,
eighteenth century. who gaze ell
their power in the service OF liberty.
Prior to their TIM, European gov
ernments and organized society, with
the exception of England. rested
upon the principles of desnotisn. Po-
liticallv. the King wes absolute and
disposed of his subjects as he saw
fit: socially. the classes possessed
different rights and duties; eco
non1ically. commerce and industry
we're stifled by regulations and re-
strictions. Our philosophers then
appeared. Their powerful voices
beat down in sonorous waves the old
edifice which soon b-gsn to break
no. Monte1quieu praised free Eng
land. spoke for the abolition OF s'av-
cry. and may we never forget 1t,

good IS thus understood: Liberty
consists in being able to do what
you should wish to do and in not
being compelled to do what you
should not wish TO do"
After Montesouieu, Voltaire came
to struggle all his life against intol-
erance. Then cams Diderot and
d'Alembort, who gave popular express
in the Encyclopedia to their belief
in progress toward an ideal of polit-
ical and intellectual liberty. And
finally Rousseau. convinced Of our
deep-seated goodness. became the
fierce defender of our liberty. 1t was
Rousseau who disclosed in his so
