should understand not only her own
Ideals, but be ready to put them Into
action at any cost. It is one thing to
entertain fine principles and another
thing to make them work. It is one
thing to entertain them in the form of
words, like the splendid words which
were uttered and give distinction to
this ancient and historic building be
hind me. but It Is another thing to
know that those same men did make
those words live in the action of their
lives. And America Is summoned In
each new generation to renew not only
the pledges that those men made, but to
renew the example which they gave
to the world.
Self-interest Denied.
"I am not interested, and I beg that
you will believe me when I say that I
never have been Interested, in fighting
for myself, but I am Immensely inter
ested in fighting for the things that 1
believe in, and so far as they are con
cerned I am a challenger to all comers.
It Is Important, therefore, since I am
In fighting mood, to let you know what
are some of the things that I do be
lieve In.
"In the first place. I believe, and I
summon you to show your belief in the
same thing, that It Is the duty of every
American in everything that he does.
In his business and out of It, to think
first, not of himself or of any interest
which he may be called upon t.o sacri
fice because of the country which we
serve. 'America first' means nothing
until you translate it In what you do.
So I believe most profoundly in the
duty of every American to exalt the
National consciousness by purifying his
own motives and exhibiting bis own
devotion.
"I believe. In the second place, that
America, the country that we put first
in our thoughts, should be ready In
every point of policy and of action to
vindicate at whatever cost the prin
ciples of liberty, of justice and of
humanity, to which we have been de
voted from the first. You cheer the
sentiment, but do you realize what It
means? It means that you have only
got to be just to other nations.
Right to Jnstloe Vpheld.
"It comes high. It is not an easy
thing to do. It is easy to think first of
the material Interest of America: but It
is not easy to think first of what Amer
ica, if she loves justice, ought to do In
the field of International affairs. I
believe that, at whatever cost. America
should be just to other peoples and
treat other peoples as she demands that
they should treat her. She has a right
to demand that they treat ber with jus
tice and respect, and she has a right
to Insist that they treat her In that
fashion; but she cannot with dignity
or self-respect insist upon that unless
she is willing to act In the same fash
ion toward them. That I am ready to
fight for. at any cost to myself.
Rule by Few Opposed.
"Then In the third place, touching
iiUnaaV UUU lUiiaAiSlTf BiX. Xsjlfiw
citizens, this Is what I believe: If 1
understand the life of America, the
central principle of It Is that no small
body of persons, no matter how influ
ential, shall be trusted to determine
the policy and development of America.
"You know what you want in your
business. Y'ou want fair field and no
favor. Y'ou want to be given the same
opportunity that other men have, not
only to make known what you have
to sell, but to sell it under as favor
able conditions as anybody else, and
the principle of the life of America
is that she draws her vitality, not from
small bodies of men who may wish
to assume the responsibility of guid
ing and controlling her. but from the
body of thinking and tolling and plan
ning men from whom she draws her
energy and vitality as a nation.
"I believe, and this Is the reason I
am a Democrat, not merely with a big
D. but with a little d I am all kinds
of a Democrat so far as I can discov
er but the root of the whole business
is that I believe in the patriotism and
energy and initiative of the average
man. Some men say they believe In
it, but when they act they show that
they do not They show that they
think the only advice that It is safe
to take is their advice.
'I was not referring to any Individ
ual, but I could. give you an interest
ing and a very short list of a group
of individuals who have that opinion,
namely, that it is not safe for the
umtea states to escape from their con
troL I feel perfectly safe In the hands
or tne average body of mv fellow.
citizens. You are bound to feel safe
in tneir hands.
Truth Is Principal.
"If they do not believe In, you. you
cannot sell anything. If they do not
believe In you, you cannot conduct
your ousiness. xour vitality comes
from them to you; it does not go from
you to mem. The theory of govern
ment which I decline to subscribe to
Is that the vitality of the Nation comes
out of closeted councils where a few
men determine the policy of the
country.
-so, gentlemen. I feel at home In
this company, not because I advertise,
but because I have got principles that
I am perfectly willing to expose to
the public view, and because I want
to express my sympathy with, not
omy out my admiration for, a body
of men who think It Is worth while
to get together in order to tell the
trutn. The only thing that ever
set any man free, the only thing that
ever eei any nation Tree, Is the truth.
A man that Is afraid of the truth
is airaia or me law or lire. A man
that does not love the truth Is In the
way of decay and of failure, and I
believe that If you will Just let the
iiam.y inn is in you ana the en
thusiasm that is In you run beyond
tne conrmea or the businesses that
you may be Interested In you will
presently feel that infite reward, as
if the red blood of a whole nation
came coursing back Into your own
veins.
"Can you Imagine, my fellow coun
trymen, a more Inspiring thing than
to belong to a free Nation and make
your way among men. every one of
whom has the right and the opportunity
to say what he thinks? Criticism does
not hurt anybody. I heard an old poli
tician once say to hia son. 'John, don't
bother your head about lies and slan
ders; they will take care of themselves,
but if you ever hear me denying any
thing you may make up your mind that
it is so." And when you see a man
wincing under criticism you may know
that something hit him that was so.
And. therefore, when they are saying
the things that are not true, there Is no
credit In keeping your head and not
minding It.
"I have uch an Inveterate confidence
In the ultimate triumph of the truth
that I feel with old Dr. Oliver Wendell
Holmes that the truth Is no invalid
and you need not mind how roughly
you handle her. She has got a splendid
constitution and she will survive every
trial and every labor.
Profession's Ideals Commended.

some of the things I have been obliged
to do before I came here, you would
know inat I could not possibly make a
speech up but merely to show my pro
found Interest In a body of men who
are not only devoted to business, but
devoted to Ideals. Business is all right
so long as It Is not sordid, and It can
not ba sordid if shot through with
ideals. A man. no matter how humble
his business, can hold his head up
among the .princes of the world If. as
he ought to do. he will think of him
self as the servant of the people and
not as their master, as one who would
serve and not on. who would govern.
"I congratulate you. my fellow citi
zens, upon Ideals of a profession which
can lower or exalt business, aa you
choose, and which you have chosen to
emplov for its exaltation. I came away
from "Washington to look Into your
faces and get some of the enthusiasm
which I always get when I come away
from officialdom and touch hand to
hand with great bodies of the free
American people."
