THAT NO WAR PLEDGE

A quotation which has become familiar,
with the Presidential campaign, only IN its
early stages, is the pledge voiced by President
Roosevelt in a speech at Boston on October 30,
1910. 1t is credited by many observers with go
ing far to clinch his victory over Wendell
Willkie in the balloting a few days later 1t
reads
"While | am talking to you fathers and
mothers give you one more assurance. | have
said this before, but shall say it again and
again and again. Your boys are not going to be
sent into any foreign wars, They are going into
training to form force so strong that by its
very existence it will keep the threat Of war far
away from our shores. eS, the purpose OF our
defense is Defense"
Internationally it will be noted that there
is no qualifying phrase unless we are at
tackled" in this statement. A similar statement
made earlier at Philadelphia was 50 qualified,
but in the Boston speech it was not)
Those with long memories will have no
difficulty in recalling that this was not the first
no war" pledge made by Mr.. Roosevelt in the
midst of a drive for reelection. On August IA,
1896, in an address at Chautauqua, n. Y, the
president-candidate then running for his sec
ond term, said:
IF war should break out in another CONT
nent let us not blink the fact that we would
find in this country thousands Of Americans
who, seeking immediate r'cheS-fOOiS gold
trality We can keep out Of war if those who
watch and decide make certain that the small
decisions of each day DO not lead toward war
and if, at the same time, they possess the cOul-
age to say NO to those who seltshly or unWiSe-
~ would let us go to war
Predictions are heard that in the coming
campaign, Mr.. Roosevelt will return to this
theme and base a part of his plea for a fourth
term on the promise that he is better qualified
than his opponent to negotiate a peace on
America IS behalf that will assure our immunity
from future wars.
This is logical forecast based on Mr.
RooSeVelt's past utterance. Promises of con-
tinued peace have been his specialty-especiaIly
at times when they would promote his popu-
larity with the electorate.
His record Of pledge fulfilIment however,
is not so impressive Voters will do we'll to pom
der this difference between promise and per
Torrance when they decide as to his qualifca-
lions to represent the United States at the most
crltlca! peace negotiations the world yet has
seen.

l. "An early example of rotation in an

1886 ACCEPTANCE SPEECH

Delivered in Philadelphia Pa, June 81, 1896:
THE brave and clear platform adopted by
this convention, to which | heartily subscribe,
sets forth that government in modern civili-
cation has certain unacceptable obligations to
its citizens, among which are protection of The
family and home, the establishment of de-
mocracy of opportunity. We are poor indeed
il this Nation cannot afTord to lift from every
recess of American life the dread fear of the
unemployed that they are not needed in the
world

poycd.

MR.. ROOSEVELT SAID

"The credit of the family depends chiefly
on whether that family is living within its in
come. And that is equally true Of the nation. If
the nation is living within its income, its credit
is good. IT, in some crisis it lives beyond its in
come for year or two, it can usually borrow
temporarily at reasonable rates. But if, like a
spendthrift, it throws discretion to the winds,
and is willing to make no sacrifice at all in
spending; if it extends its taxing to the limit of
the peoples power to pay and continues to pile
up deficits then it is on the road to bank
ruptcy. That was back in 1892.
