Is it possible they do not realize

Members of the Senate and men,
bers of the House of Representa-
tives: I'll turn for one thought
more from the turmoil and convul-
sions of the present to the broader
spaces of the future. Here we are
together, facing group of mighty
foes who seek our ruin. Here We are
together. defending all that to free
men are dear. Twice In q single
generation the catastrophe of world
war has fallen upon us. Twice in
our lifetime the long arm Of fate has
reached out across the ocean to bring
the United States into the forefront

gether after the last war. if we took
common measures for our safety.
this renewal of the curse need never
have fallen upon us.
Precautions for Future.
Do We not owe it to ourselves, TO
our children. to tormented mankind,

Five or six years ago it would
have been easy, without shedding

Germany signed after the great war,
