I do not pity them. 1 envy them, rather, because theirs i8 a great work for liberty accomplished and we are in the midst of a work i unfinished, testing our strength where their strength already has been test- ed. There is a touch of sorrow, but there is a touch of reassurance also in a day like this, because we know how the men of America have re- sponded to the call of the cause of iiberty, and it fills our minds with a perfect assurance that that response measure, with equal ‘majesty, and with a result which will hold the attention of all mankind. “When you reflect upon it, these men who died to preserve the Union, died to preserve the instrument which we are now using to serve the world— a free nation espousing the cause of human lfberty. In one sense the great strugsle into which we have now entered is an American struggle, because it is in the senss of American honor and American pights, but it is something even greater than that; it is a world struggle. It is & struggle'of men who love liberty everywhere, and in this cause America will show her- self greater than ever because she will rise to a greater thing. We have said in the beginning that we planned this great goverriment that men who wish freedom might have a place of refuge and a place where their hope could be realised and now, having es- tablished such a government, having ‘preserved such a government, having indicated the power of such a govern- ment, we are saying to ‘We did not set this government up in order that we might have a selfish State of Ohio, City of Toledo, Lucas County, ss.

For, my friends, the real fruition of life is to do the things. we have said we wished to do. There are times when work seems empty and only action seems great. Such a time has come, and in the providence of God America will once more have an opportunity to show to the world that she was born to serve mankind.” After the ceremonies the president motored back to the White House. He was cheered repeatedly as his car rolled out of the beautiful cemetery. LOW RECORD MADE IN U-BOAT ATTACK Submarines Sink Fewer Vessels Than at Any Other Time in Four Moaths. London, May 31.—With a dwind- ling average of destruction for a month, German submarines last week sank fewer British merchant vessels than in any week since the “ruthless” campaign opened on February 1. Fri- day practically ends the four months in which Germany declared the sub- marine war began would bring Eng- land to her knees. According to the admiraity figures jssued here, eighteen ships of more than 1,600 tons, one vessel of less than that tonnage and two fishing craft were sunk during the week end- ed Sunday. ‘The only weekly figures compar- able with these are those for the week ‘|ended April 8, when seventeen large wvessels ,one small one and six fishing craft were sunk. There is no way of comparing the tonnage destroyed, but In peoportion to the number of ships entering and clearing from ports in the British Isles last week’s percentage of destruction was decid- edly lower than. even that for the week ended April 8. Last week's percentage was a Ifttle less than 0:35; the lowest percentage previously re- corded by the U-boats was 0.43. In the “black week,” which ended April 29, when forty large vessels and | fifeeen smaller ones were sent to the bottom, it rose to 1.70, and during the first two weeks of the present cam- paign it reached 1.04.
