preserve the peace of the world upon
a basis of common right and justice.
"Universal training and preparedness
were possible," Air. Wilson declared,
"only if the men of suitable
strength and age will volunteer." He
said the "acid test" was about to be
applied to bus;ness men to see.whether
they would allow their employes to
volunteer. He said the army organization
bill now before him bristled
with that interrogation point, which
he warned all the business men of the
country was staring them in the face.
The president said he was for "universal
voluntary training," but that
"America does not wish anything but
the compulsion of the spirit of America."
He added that the people of
the nation were watching each other
and that a great many mern, even
when they did not want to, were go
:ng to stand up ar.'d. say "Here."
Followig is the text of the speech:
, "Whenever I seek to interpret the
spirit of an occasion like this, I am
led to reflect upon the seas of
memory. We are he?e today to recall

sense is so remote that we no longer

"It was a singularly complete work
that was performed by the processes

it was made. I see in this very audience

"And yet, ladies and gentlemen, tho

' this singular and beloved country is
: that its task, its human task, is apparently
:.ever finished; that it is alI
ways making and to be made. And
there is at present upon us a crisis
which seems to threaten to be a new
; crisis of division. We k.iow that the
'
war which is to ensue will be a war
; of spirits and not of arms. We know
that the spirit of America is invinci
ble and that no man can abate its
| power, but we know that that spirit
. must upon occasion be asserted, and
; that this is one of the occasions.
i America is made up out of all the
' nations of the world. Look at the
rosters of the Civil war. You will
' see names there drawn from almost j
[ every European stock. Not recently.!
but from the first America has drawn !
her blood and her impulse from all1

the fountains of every race, and be- !

j
"The war in Europe has done a j
! very natural thing in America. It |
1 has stirred the memories of men1
j drawn from many of the belligerent'
j stocks. It has renewed in them a nai
tional feeling which has grown faint
j under the soothing influence of peace.!
j but which now flares up when, it
j looks as if nation had challenged naj
tion to a final reckoning and they rej
member the nations from which they
I were sprung and know that they are
| in this life and death grapple. It is
; not singular, my fellow citizens, that
; this should have occurred and up to
j
j a certain point it is not just that *e
1 should criticise it have no criticism
for men who leve the places of
[ !
iheir bin]: a d the sources oi their
j origin. We do not wish men to forg-e* i
j their mothers and their fathers, their j
i forbears running back through ions, j
j laborious geueratio .s which have taken
part in the building up of the
strength and spirit of other nations.
No man quarrels with that. From i
j such spri. gs of sentiment we all ,
I draw ?nme nf rhp handsomest inspir- !
1 ations of our lives. But all that we !
i i
do criticise is that in some instances
?they are not very numerous?but in j
some instances men have allowed this
j old ardor of another nationality to j
j overthrow their ardor for the na-;
| tionality to which they "have given
their new allegiance. 'And so the United
States has again to work out by
spiritual process a new union, when
men shall -not think of what divides
them, but shall recall wliat unites
them; when men shall not allow old
ties to take the place of present al- j
legiance; when men must. o.i the;
I
i contrary, translate that very lo. e of
{ country of their birth into the ardor
of love for the country of their adop- ,
tion a.:d the principles which it rep-,
resents. I have no harshness in my j
heart even for the extremists in this ;
thing which I have bee.i trying in!
moderate words to . escribe, but I '
summon them and I summon them j
very solemnly, not to set their pur- I
pose agai..st the purpose of Ame -1
ica. America must come first i;i j
every purpose we entertain and every j
man must count upon being cast ou:
of our confidence, cast out eve:: 01
our tolerance, who does not submit
to that great ruling principle.
".But what are the purposes of i
America? Do you see that there is
another significance i.1. the fact that
we are made up out of all the peoples
of the world? The significance of that
fact is that we are not going to de-!
<.ote our nationality to the same misJ 1
take.i aggressive purpose that some i
ether nationalities have been devoted I
to; that because we are made up, an.1 j
consciously made up, out of all the |
sroat family of mankind, we are
champions of the rights of mankkd.1
We are not only ready to cooperate !
but we are ready to fight against any
aggression, whether from without or
from within. But we must guard our- \
soIvm aorflinst tlift sort of assressio1:! !
! which would be unwortliy of America.
We are ready to fight for our rights
when these rights are coincident with .
the rights of man and humanity. It
!
was to set those rights up. to vindicate
them, to offer a home to every
ma>a who believed in them, that j
America was created and her govern-1
ment ?et up. We have kept our doors
open because we did not -think we in
conscience could close them agal'.st
men who wanted to join their force
i with ours in vindicating the claim of
J ma ilk.' d to liberty and justice.
>o Territory Wanted.
i America does not want any addij
ticnal territory. She dr not want
I any selfish ad'.a^tage over any other;
! nation in the world but she does wish !
every nation in the world to under- j
stand what she stands for and to re
spect what she stands for; and I can I
not conceive of a: y man of any blood
! or origin failr. g to feel an enthusiasm
for tlie things that America i
stands for or failing to see that they
are indefinitely elevated above any
;
purpose of aggression or selfish advantage.
"I said the other evening in an-j
j other place that one of the principles)
1 which America held dear was that!
j small and weak states liad as much1
i
n"?ht to their sovereignty and in-!
dependence as large and stror.gj
states. She believes that because'
strength and weakness have nothing |
to do with her principles. Her pm- j
ciples are for the rights and liberties J
of mankind and this is the haven j
which we ha-e offered to those who
believe that sublime and sacred creed \
of humanity. And I also said that I
believed that the people of the United '
States were ready to become part-;
ners in any alliance of the nations

above selfish aggression. Some of the
public prints have remkded me. as
if I needed to be reminded, of what j
Gen. Washington warned us against, j
He warned us agafcst entangling al-i
liances. I shall never myself consent!
to an entangling alliance: but I
would gladly assent to a disentar;g-|
ling alliance, am alliance which would i
disentangle the peoples of the world !
i from those combinations in which |
they seek their own separate and pri- j
1 vate interests and unite the people of j
I
I the world to preserve the peace of,
the world upon a basis of common
[ right and justice. There is liberty,
! there, not limitation. There is free- j
! dom, rot entanglement. There is the j
achievement of the highest thing for i
which the (United 'States has declared!
its principle.
