PRESIDENT PAYS TRIBUTE
Son of Martyred Chief Among Men

V
Present at Services.
r WASHINGTON. D. C, May 80. (By
the Associated Press.) The homage
of a people was poured out today at
the- ehrine erected by a d-ecade of
patient labor to Abraham Lincoln. Un
der the thoughtful gaze of his marble
likeness, dim In the shadowy back
ground of the gleaming white temple
liia countrymen have raised to him,
thousands of Americans were gath
ered. '
' Men great in the councils of the
nation were there. The president
came to accept in the nation's name
the memorial reared at the river
brim. A former president came glad
ly to g'lve accounting of 'his trust as
(head of the commission that eaw the
great work to its completion. Sena
tors, representatives, cabinet officers,
admirals and generals all were there;
tout it was not these, lavish as were
their tributes to the great dead, who
made the day historic in American an
nals. It was the swelling tide of
humble people who stood for hours
under a blazing sun to claim this
j temple of freedom and the man whose
; memory it enshrines as their own.
K Lincoln's Son Present.
P Far as the eye could reach from
: the high base of the memorial,
Americans were spread over the
Jawns and clustering under the trees
that grace the setting. How many
may liave been there to hear the
words of the speakers, caught up and
flung to far distances by the ampli
fier that studded- the coping atop
Ihe marble structure, no man might
estimate. But when the last word
had been said, when the president
Biad gripped handa with Robert Lin
coln at the foot of the father's statue,
the public broke over the barriers and
swept unchecked up the wide steps to
see for itself the things that have
been wrought in the people's name.
There was little of .military splen
dor about the dedication services. Just
a flourish of trumpets to mark the
coming- and going of President Hard
ing and the solemn ritual with which
the men of the Grand Army of the
Republic dedicated the silken em
blem of a reunited country on the
steps of the memorial. The woTds of
the formal orders at the service were
spoken In voices shaken and thin with
age. and the hands that held the
banner aloft trembled under the
weight of years.
Old Men Don Bine.
Along the front benches of a lower
terrace, facing the great statue above,
were gathered' the veterans. To the
right a handful of old men had
Conned again the blue that gave them
, front place in the day's events, and
stood to act. as guard of honor when
the president arrived. Flanking these
to the left a bare score of gray-clad
veterans of the armies of Lee or other
southern generals stood proudly to
salute the flag that Lincoln's vision
and high courage preserved as the
flag of one people.
The sight of these bent men in gray
drew President Harding from the
written text of his address. He was
saying that to Lincoln, greater than
any other reward he could have
known would have been the knowl
edge that his vision had been ful
filled; that the broad waters of the
Potomac, flowing within a stone's
throw of the memorial, marks no
boundary between two nations, but
that from sea to sea Americana are
one people.
Sir. Harding's voice thrilled as he
(paused to draw attention to the gray
' clad veterans and recall that twice
since Lincoln died men of the south
ern states, sons of such men as these
old warriors, had come in their
strength to fight for the flag to which
their fathers returned after the bitter
South Fights for Plasr.
"How it would comfort his great
oul," the president said, "to know
that the states of the southland join
sincerely in honoring him and have
twice since his dly joirt-ed with all
the fervor" of his own great heart in
defending the flag. How it would
soften hie anguish to know that the
south long since came to realize that
a vain assassin robbed it of its most
incere and potent friend when it
was prostrate and stricken when
Lincoln's sympathy and understand
ing would have helped to heal the
wounds and hide the scars and speed
the restoration.
"How with his love of freedom and
gustice this apostle of humanity
would have found his sorrows ten
told repaid to see the hundred mil
lions to whom he bequeathed reunion
and nationality giving their sons and
daughters and all their fortunes to
halt the armed march of autocracy
and preserve civilization, even as he
preserved tne union.
More, now his great American
heart would be aglow to note how we
are going on, always on. holdfno- tn
constitutional methods, amending to
meet requirements of a progressive
civilization, clinging to majority rule
properly restrained, which is the only
true sovereign of a free people, and
working to -the fulfillment" of the des
tiny of the world's greatest republic."
Work of Years Finished.
In transferring the memorial from
the commission to the head of the
government. Chief Justice Taft tni
how its first suggestion had come 20
years ago, to lie fallow a decade be
fore it was seized upon and wrought
with close adherence to the broad
vision of what this second great
American deserved of his country
men, into the stately structure of to
day. ' It was perhaps well, the form
er president said, that half a century
should have passed before the em
blem of Lincoln's greatness should
have been erected, for in that time
America had time to grow In the arts

WASHINGTON, D. C, May 30.
"Maintained union and nation
ality," rather than "emancipa
tion" was declared to be the supreme
chapter in American history by Presi
dent Harding, in an address today
accepting the Lincoln memorial in
behalf of the American people. Lin
coln would have compromised with
slavery, Mr. Harding declared, while
cleaving to his great purpose main
tenance of the "inheritance handed
down by the . founding fathers."
Declaring that the new memorial
was fittingly placed near the tower
ing spire of the Washington monu
ment, Mr. Harding said that "Wash
ington, the founder, and Lincoln, the
saviour," offered outstanding proof
that a representative popular gov
ernment, constitutionally founded,
can find its own way to salvation
and accomplishment."
President's Speech Follows.
The president spoke as follows:

cially to accept on behalf of the gov-,
ernme-nt this superb monument to the
savior of the repuouo.
duty could be more welcome, no or r -cial
function more pleasing. inis
memorial edifice is a noble tribute,
gratefully bestowed, and in its oner
ing is the reverent heart of America;
in its dedication is the consciousness
of reverence and . gratitude, beauti
fully expressed. '
Somehow my emotions incline me
to speak simply as- a reverent and
grateful American rather than one in
official responsibility. I am thus in
clined because the true measure ol
Lincoln is in his place today in the
heart of American citizenship, though
near half a century has passed since
his colossal service and his martyr
dom. In every moment of peril in
every hour of discouragement, when
clouds gather, there is the image of
Lincoln to rivet our hopes and to re
new our fatih. Whenever there is
a glow of triumph over national
achievement there comes the remind
er that but for Lincoln's heroic and
unalterable faith in the Union these
triumphs could not have b,een. i
Eulogists Agree on.Iineoln.
No great character in all history
has been more eulogized, no rugged
figure more monumental, no likeness
more portrayed. Painters and sculp
tors portrav as they see, and no two
see precisely alike. So, too, is there
varied emphasis in the portraiture of
words, but all are agreed about the
rugged: greatness and the surpassing
tenderness and unfailing wisdom of
this master martyr.
History is concerned with the things
accomplished. Biography deals with
the methods and- the individual attri
butes which led to accomplis-hment.
The supremechapter in history is not
emancipation, though that achieve
ment would have exalted Lincoln
throughout all the ages. The simple
truth is that Lincoln, recognizing an
established order, would have com
promised with the slavery that ex
isted If he could have halted- it ex
tension. Holding human slavery as
he did, 'he doubtless believed in its
ultimate abolition through the devel
oping conscience of the American peo
ple, out ne wouia nave Dten mr
man in the republic to resort to arms
to effect its abolition. Emancipation
was a means to the great end main
tained union and nationality. Here
was the great purpose, here the tow
arinfr v,r,r,A hprft 1hf surtreme faith.
He treasured the inheritance handed .
oown by the founding latners, tne
ark of the covenant wrought tnrougn
their heroic sacrifices and builded in
their inspired genius. The Union must
be preserved. It was the central
thought, the unaltered purpose, the
unyielding intent, the foundation of
fait W It- wa worth every sacrifice,
justified every cost, steeled the heart
to sanction every crimson tide of
blood. Here was the great experi
ment rtonular government and con
stitutional union menaced by greed
expressed in human chattels.
Slavery Pronounce Own Doom.
With the greed restricted and on-
threatening he could temporize. When
it challenged federal authority ana
threatened the Union it pronounced
its own doom. In the first inaugural
he quoted and reiterated his own oft
repeated utterance: "I have no pur
pose directly or Indirectly to inter
fere with the institution of slavery in
the states where it exists. I believe
I have no lawful right to do so, and I
have no inclination to dio so." He be
lieved in maintaining inviolate tne
rights of the states, but he believed
no less firmly in the perpetuity of
the Union of the states The Union,
having been contracted, could not be
dissolved except by consent of all
parties to the contract He recog
nized the. conflicting viewpoints, dif
fering policies and controverted ques
tions. But there were constitutional
methods of settlement and these must
be employed.
In the first, inaugural address he
stressed the great general principle
that "in our constitutional controver
sies we divide into majorities- and
minorities. If the minority wll not
acquesce, "the majority must, or the
government must cease. There is no
other alternative, for continuing the
government is acquiescence on one
side or the other. If the minority in
such case will secede rather than ac
quiesce they make a -precedent which
in turn win divide and ruin them.
. . . Plainly thevcentral idea of se
cession is the essence of anarchy. A
majority held in restraint by consti
tional checks and limitations and al
ways changing easily-with deliberate
changes of popular opinions and sen
timents is the only true sovereign of
Jt free people. Whoever rejects it
does, of necessity, fly to anarchy or
despotism.
Public Opinion Exalted.
Here spoke the statesman, proclaim,
ing deliberate public opinion as the
supreme power of civilization, easily
to be written into law when Convic
tion should command. It ought to be
tonic to the waning confidence of
those of today who grow impatient
that emphasized minority views are
not hurried into the majority expres
sions of the republic. Deliberate
public opinion never fails. Later,
closing his first' inaugural, when
anxiety gripped the nation,- there
spoke the generous, forgiving, sym
pathetic man of undaunted faith:
"I am loath to close. We are not
enemies, but friends. We must not be
enemies. Though passion may have
strained, it must not-break our bonds
of afiection. Tne mystic chords of
memory, stretching from every bat
tlefield and patriot grave, to every
living heart and hearthstone, all over
this broad land, will yet swell the
chorus of the union, when again
touched, as they surely will be. by
xne Deiter angeis oi our nature.
But he appealed in vain. Passion was
aflame and war was made the arbiter.
Americans fought Americans with
equal courage and valor. There was
an ambiguity in the constitution,
which only a baptism in blood could
efface. One may only speculate on
what another might have done, but
fate seems to have summoned the
one great hero best fitted to lead to
tne union s salvation.
His faith was Inspiring', his resolu
tion commanding, his sympathy re
assuring, his simplicity enlisting, his
patience unfailing. His was Faith
Patience and Courage, with his head
above - the clouds, unmoved by the
storms which raged about his feet.
None Was Ever More Criticised.
No leader was ever more unsparing
ly criticised or more bitterly assailed
He was lashed by angry tongues and
ridiculed in press and speech until he
drank from' as bitter a cup as was
ever put to human lips, but his faith
was unshaken and his patience never
exhausted. Seme one sent me recently
an . illumined and framed quotation
which fell from his lips when the
storm of criticism was at its height-
"If I were trying to read," he said!
"much less answer, all the attacks
made on me, this shop might as well
be closed for any other business I
do the best I know how, the very best
I can, and I mean to keep on doing
it to the end. -If the end brings me
out all right, what is said against me
will not amount to anything. If the
end brings me out all wrong, ten
angels swearing I was right would
make no difference!"

STATUE OF "GREAT EMANCIPATOR
out all right. H-e knew when swords
were sheathed and guns laid down,
that the union he saved- -was riveted
anew and made forever indissoluble.
He knew that in the great crucible of
fire and blood the dross had been
burned from the misdirected patriot
ism of seceding states and the pure
gold restored to shining stars in dear
Old Glory again. He knew he had
freed a race of bondmen and had
given to the world the costly proof
of the perpetuity of the American
union. But I cannot restrain the
wish that he might somehow know
of the monuments to his memory
throughout the world, and that we
are dedicating today, on behalf of a
grateful nation, this matchless me
morial, whose 48 columns, represent
ing 48 states in the concord of union,
testify that the "end brought him out
all right." '
Reflecting how on the lampooning
and heedless attack apd unjustifiable
abuse which bru'sed his heart and
tested his patience, we may accept its
expression as one of the abused priv
ileges under popular ' government,
when passion sways and bitterness
inspires, but for which there is com

He rose to colossal stature in a day
of imperiled- union. He first ap
pealed a.. 1 then commanded and left
the union secure and the nation su
preme. His was a leadership for a
great crisis, made loftier because of
the inherent righteousness of his
cause, and the sublimity of his own
faith. Washington inspired belief in
the republic in its heroic beginning;
Lincoln proved its quality in, the he
roic preservation.
TJie old world had wondered about
the new world experiment, and was
quite ready to proclaim its futility
when the civil war was threatening:
bat Lincoln left the Union unchal
lenged for ail succeeding time. Not
only was our nation given a new birth
-of freedom, but democracy was given
a new sanction by that hand of divin
itv itself which has Written, the rights
of humankind and pointed the way to
their enjoyment.
Abraham Lincoln was no superman.
Like the great Washington, whose
monumental shaft towers near by as
a fit companion to the memorial we
dedicated today, the two testifyig
to the grateful love of all Americans
to founder and savior like Washing
ton, Lincoln was a very natural hu
man being, with the frailities mixed
with the virtues of humanity. There
are neither supermen nor demigods in
the government of kingdoms, empires
or republics. It will be better for our
conception of government and its in
stitutions if we will understand this
fact. It is vastly greater than find
ing the superman if ti-e justify the
confidence that our institutions are
capable of bringing into authority, in
time of stress, men big enough and
strong enough to meet all demands.
Two Leaders Corapnred.
Washington and Lincoln offered
outstanding proof that a represent
ative popular government, constitu
tionally founded can find its own way
to salvation and accomplishment. In
the very beginning our American
democracy turned to Washington, the
aristocrat, for leadership in revolu
tion, and the greater task of found
ing permanent institutions. The wis
dom of Washington, and Jefferspn and
Hamilton and Franklin was proved
when Lincoln, the child of privation,
of hardship, of barren environment
and meager opportunity, rose to un
questioned leadership when disunion
threatened. '
Lincoln came almost as humbly as
the child of Bethlehem. His parents
were unlettered, his home was devoid
of every element of culture and re
finement. He was no infant prodigy,
no luxury facilitated or privilege
hastened his development, but he had
a God-given intellect, a love for work,
a willingness to labor and a purpose
to succeed.
Biographers differ about his ambi
tion, but Herndon, who knew him as
did no other, says he was greatly
ambitious. I can believe that. Am
bition is a commendable attribute,
without which no man s-ucceeds. Only
inconsiderate ambition imperils.
Lincoln was modest, but he was
sure of himself and always greatly
simple. Therein was his appeal to
the confidence of his country. When
he believed he was right a nation be
lieved him to be right, and offered all
in his support.
His work was so colossal in the
face of such ddscouragemeTit that
none will dispute that he was incom
parably the -greatest, of our - presi
dentSi He came to authority when
- -
: 1
the republic was beset by foes at
home and abroad, and re-established
union and! security. He made that
gesture of his s-urpassdng generosity
which began reunion.
Let us forget the treachery, corrup
tion and incompetence with which he
had to combat and recall his wisdom,
his unselfishness, his sublime pa
tience. He resented no calumnies
upon himself; he held no man his
enemy who had the power and will to
serve the Union; his vision was blind
ed by no jealousy. He took his ad
visers from among his rivals, invoked
their patriotism and ignored their
plottings. He dominated them by the
sheer greatness of his intellect, the
singleness and honesty of his purpose
and made them responsive to his hand
for the accomplishment of the exalt
ed purpose. Amid, it all there was a
gentleness, a kindness, a sympathetic
sorrow which suggested a divine in
tent to blend mercy with power in
supreme attainment.
Matchless Tribute Paid.
This memorial, matchelss tribute
that it is, is less for Abraham Lincoln
than for those of us today and for
those who follow after. His surpass
ing compensation would have been in
living, to have his ten thousand sor
rows dissipated in the rejoicing of the
succeeding half century. He loved
"h's boys" In the army, and would
have reveled in the great part they
played in more than a half centurv
of the pursuit of peace, and concora
restored. How he would have been
exalted by the chorus of the union
after the mystic chords' were
'touched by the better angels of our
nature."
How it would comfort his great
soul to know that the states in the
southland join sincerely in honoring
him, and have twice, since his day,
joined with all the fervor of his own
great heart in defe ndinE- the flotr.
how it would soften his anguish to

German Reply in Reparations
Made Public.
LOAN IS ONLY PROVISO
Matter of Financial Advance Is
Considered to Be Detail That
Can Easily Be Arranged.
PARIS, May 30. (By. the Assoc!-.
ated Press.) The disquieting pros-l
pect tnat t rance would bring iurtner'
pressure to bear on Germany with the
extension of her military occupation
is regarded in reparations and po
litical circles, as eliminated by the
German reply to the reparations com
miss'on made puBii? today. It prom
ises to comply with ' the conditions
imposed by the reparations commis
sion, with the proviso that Germany
must have aid in the form of a for
eign loan.
The commission had insisted upon
unconditional compliance, but the
question of the loan was Considered a
detail that will be arranged without
complications. The reply, dealing
with this question, said: .
"The German government, deter
mined to make the most strenuous
endeavors to prevent any further in
crease in the floating debt are, how
ever, convinced that in tbe present
financial conditions such efforts can
not be carried through unless Ger- i
many receives reasonable assistance
iu the way of a foreign loan.
Basis for Deal Suggested. .
"Provided such asslstancS becomes
available without undue delay, the
German government would undertake
to deal with the question oh the fol
lowing basis: - .
"The amount of the floating debt
as it stood on March 31, 1922, is from
now on to be the normal maximum.
If at the end of June or at the end
of any subsequent month the amount
exceeds the normal maximum steps
will be taken to secure repayment of
the excess within three months fol
lowing by means of excess receipts
or by raising credits otherwise than
in the form of giving rise to fidu
ciary inflation."
Germans Male- Promises.
The German government promises
that in case the maximum is exceeded
again it will endeavor to impose new
taxes sufficient to make up the dif
ference. Pending the receipt of the
proposed foreign loan, however, the
government,- asks that the. floating
debt may be increased in paper marks
to the equivalent of payments of for
eign currency made and to be made
since March 31, under the terms of
the treaty of Versailles.
The condition imposed In the reply
that Germany must have help from a
foreign loan was first thought to be
a mistake in ren.cn translation,
since the German text was interpreted
as expressing the mere "hope" that
this help would be given. Inquiry in
Berlin, . however, developed the fact
that the German government intended
to make that proviso.
The impression made by the Ger
man reply was not unfavorable, it
was said, at the French foreign office
this afternoon unofficially.
