Miss Wasterlain's last visit to
Tacoma was in the summer of
1899 She emphasized that she
was most happy to be back and
that both she and her accompanist,
Hungarian-born Laszlo Bartal, are
looking forward to seeing the
Narrows bridge, or what's left of
il, McChord Field and the noun
tain.
Tell everyone to hold a good
thought 80 that we may be able
to see the mountain" Miss Waster-
lain said.
Miss Wasterlain's musical tri-
umphs have been many since her
debut in Town Hall In 1887. Since
that time she has had two other
concerts in Town Hall, has had the
honor to play for the President
and First Lady and has appeared
at the Waldorf-Astoria on the
candlelight concert series.
But music does not alone hold
her interest She is an enthusiast

fencing to her list of accomplish
ments. studying under the famed
Hungarian International ch M
pions.
Laszlo Bartal has been with the
Tacoma artist as accompanist
since last February. He came to
this country in 1887 after COM
pleting his studies at the Royal
Academy of Music in Budapest.
Among his teachers were famed
Zoltan kodally and Ernst Dohn-
anyi. Mr.. Bartal has also spent
some time in England and in India
and the Far East. having appeared

Defense Of Democratic Principle
Is Base Of F. D. INAUGURAL Address

upon this continent a new iife-a
life that should Be new In freedom.
Its vitality WAS written into
our Nayfiouer compact. into
the declaration Of independ-
ence, into the constitution Of
the United States. Into the
Gettysburg address.
Those who first came here to
csrry out the iongings Of their
spirit. and the millions who fol-
lowed. and the stock that srrsnr
from them-sii have moved for
ward constantly and consistently
toward an ideal which in Itself has
gained stature and clarity with
each generation.
The hopes Of the republic can
not forever tolerate either unde-
served poverty or self : serving
wealth.
We know that we still have
far to 60: that we must more
greatly build the security and the
opportunity and the knowledge of
every citizen. in the measure Jus
titled by the resources and the
capacity Of the land.
But II h not enough to
achieve these purposes alone.
Il Ia not enough TO ciothe and
feed the body Of this nation.
and instruct and inform ita
mind. For there h ALSO the
spirit. And Of the three, the
greatest IL the spirit.
without the body and the mind.
as all men know. the nation could
not live.
But II the spirit of America
were killed. even though the ma
tons body and mind. constructed
in an alien world. lived on. the
America we know would have per-
ished.
That spirit-that speaks
to us in our daily lives in ways
often unnoticed. because they seem
30 obvious. 1t speaks to us here
in the capital of the nation. II
speaks to us through the processes
of governing In the sovereignties
of As states. II speaks to us In
our counties, in our cities. in our
towns. and in our villages. II
speaks to us from the other nations
Of the hemisphere, and from those
across the seas-the enslaved, as
well as the free. Sometimes we
fail TO hear or to heed these voices
of freedqH because to us the priv
ilege OF our freedom Is such an
old. old story.
The destiny Of America WAS
proclaimed In words of proph-
ecy spoken by our first presi-
dent In his first inaugural of
1588-words almost directed, II
would seem. TO this year of
1S4l: The reservation Of the
sacred fire Of liberty and the
destiny Of the republican mod
81 Of government are justly
considered :. deeply -. final
~. staked on the experiment
intrusted to the hands Of the
American people.
IF we lose that sacred fire-if
we let IL be smothered with doubt
and fear-then we shall reject the
destiny which Washington strove
20 valiantly and so triumphantly
to establish. The preservation OF
the spirit and faith of the nation
does. and will. furnish the highest
justification of every sacrifice that
we may make in the cause of ma
tional defense.
''In the face Of great perils
never before encountered. our
strong purpose Ia to protect
and TO perpetuate the integrity
of democracy.
For this we muster the sirit of
America. and the faith of America.
We do not retreat. We are not
content TO stand still. As Ameri-
cans, we go forward. in the service
Of our country. by the will Of God"
