(Continued from page one.)
of century and a half ago. On
my Journey hither I have been reid
lng once more of those thrilling day
which saw the flrat peopling of th-3
lands beyond the mountains, and
seized the perfect moment which des
tiny offered to our forbears to create
these United States.
Illstorlral Spot.
"ft seemed to me in reading history,
that Harrodfiburg can lay claim to
having been the scene of more hl
tor'cal first things than any other
spot I have ever known. It seems
not enough that this delightful and
historic place was the first permanent
settlement well beyond the mountains,
that here were the earliest pioneer ,
homes, that here came the first school
teacher and the first doctor, that
here was the first court In the west.
To this you must ado many other
firsts, the first corn raised In Ken
tucky, the first peach-atones and ap
ple seeds planted, the first whtat
field, the first grist mlU and, per
haps most Important of all, the firm
spinning wheel.
"That Is why I am happy that In
addition to paying tribute to the
memory of George Rogers Clark, w:.io
led his men from here to his great
Invasion and preservation of the in
land empire to the United Statos,
you are also honoring the men and
women who made his expedition pas
Elble and who followed him with che
permanency of home building.
Discovery Not All.
"It haa come to be a generally ac
cepted rule of civilized nations that
mere discovery of new lands conveva
no sovereignty, and. indeed, that mere
conquest conveys but little better
title It is, after all, only th- peo
pling of the wilderness which gives
permanency In the form of an or
dered society.
"There Is a very definite analogy
between those days and ours. Upon
the pioneers of these great stretches
of the central west were forced new
activities because of the circum-!
stances of their surroundings. Th?y
were compelled to hew out a new
path, a path that was dependent not
on the axe and the rifle alone, out
upon their ability to govern them
selves in new ways as well.
"To most of the pioneers the neces
sities of the new life called for ef-

earlier years in the more ordered civ
ilization of the Atlantic seaboard.
Survival Itself demanded Immediate
and new action.
Pioneers of 11)34.
"I have called us who are here
today 'Pioneers of 1934. I mean
everything that the word 'pioneer'
implies. We, too. In these latter years
throughout the length and breadth
of our land have come to a realiza
tion of the pregnant fact that the j
accustomed order of our formerly ea-
tablUhed Uvea does not suffice to1
meet tha perils and the problems
which we- are compelled to face. Again,
were survival calls for new pioneer
ing on our part.
"Some portion of the blood of the
colonists and the blood of the ploneeia
who worked their way. through the
generations, across the mountains fti'd
across tha plains and again across
the mountain until they came to
the Pacific, that blood is present in
very large part in the veins of mil
lions of our people. More than that,
the example and the spirit of these
earlier Americans Is present in the
mind and the heart of all our popu
lation. Mill Hewlnjr.
"We are carrying on. we shall carry
on, the purposes of these men ar.d
women of Harrodsburg. They were
hewing out a commonwealth and I
like that word 'commonwealth.'
"We, too, are hewing out a com
monwealth a commonwealth of the
states, which we hope will give to Its
people more truly than any that has
gone before, the fulfillment of secur
ity, of freedom, of opportunity and
of happiness which America asks and
is entitled to receive."
