PAGE FIVE OF IN HARVARD TALK Hearers Reminded of Alumni Fears When Former Dem ocrats Held Presidency Truth Aid to Freedom CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Sept. 18 (AP) President Roosevelt declared today that "In this day of modern wltch burnlng. when freedom of thought has been exiled from many lands," It la up to Harvard university and America "to stand for freedom of the human mind." Ho urged the alumni: "To pay ardent reverence to the past but to recognize no less the dt--tinn of the future; to understand the philosophies we do not accept .... ira find it difficult to share: to account the service of man. kind the highest ambition a man can follow, and to know that there is no calling so humble that It cannot be i.tinrt with that ambition; never to be indifferent to what may affect our neighbors: always, as i-ienuSc said, to put truth In the first place and not In the second. Reminded of Fenrs. WArlv In his speech. Mr. Roosevelt, In bantering vein, remlndid his hear .t, that In the nast many Harvard alumni were "sorely troubled" when Democrats sat In the president's chair at the White House. Then he quoted s.i.Ma. m the effect that the things feared have not come to pasa. urvarri'K hi-centenarv celebra. tlon. he said, "many of the alumni were sorely troubled concerning the .tt. of the nation. Andrew Jackson "On the 250th anniversary of the founding of Harvard college, alumnt m.r unrelv troubled. Qrover Cleveland was president. Now. on the 300th anniversary. I am president." "In spite of fears Harvard, apd the nation of which it Is a part, have marched steadily to new and success ful achievements, changing their formations and their strategy to meet new conditions: but marching always under the old banner of freedom." Friend In Truth. "Behind the tumult and the shout ing." he said at another point. Har vard's creek Is still to "find a frlcmi In truth." "The truth la great and will pre vail." he said. "For centuries that ' grand old saying has been a rock of support for persecuted men. "But It depends on men's tolerance, self-restraint, and devotion to free dom, not only for themselves, but also for others, whether the truth will prevail through free research, free discussion and the free Inter course of civilized men, or. will pre vail only Bftcr suppression and suf fering when none cares whether It prevails or not."
