One year ago I made the dog- matic_statement that every war was caused by the “Dollar” lust. Up to that time, that statement could not have been controverted. But at the present time our own country, our United States, has entered into the most gigantic, most hateful struggle that history has ever recorded, not for gain, not for conquest, but fcx the freedom and liberty of the human race, for the defense of non-militar- ism_ against militarism, for the sake of humanity as against machine-like autocratic efficiency. Why? Allow me to quote from the Bunker Hill speech of Daniel Webster: “Let us endeavor to comprehend, in all its magnitude, and to feel in all its importance, the part assigned to us in the great dra- ma of human affairs. We are placed at the head of the system of repre- sentative and jpopular governments. Thus far, our example shows that such zovernments are compatible not only with respectab and power, but with repose, with secur- ity of personal rights, with good laws and a just administration.”” Believing these statements to be true, and no citizen of this country, nay, no resident on its soil, will deny even a portion of ome, and belleving that this mighty fabric is in fmminent danger of being rent asunder by a strong militarist power, absolute cold logiv_gives the answer to the ques- tion “Why.” What the ultimate end or when it will be, can be truly said to be very problematic. For a guc- cessful outcome of our endeavor the absolute necessity of the aid of each and evervone of us who worship this Zreat fabric of freedom must be must be recognized. The aid in personnel of the front line forces, in the far greater army of those who must pro- duce and conserve the necessities for that front line force is a tremendous thing to consider. Here In this school the need has been seen and the bur- den assumed. Not only have you en- listed yourselves in the army of pro- duction and conservation but one. Fairbanks has offered his person to the United States by making appli- cation for enroliment in the navy ser- vice as apprentice. It is the dearest hope of all of us that the actual grap- ple of Death may not be necessary, but if it must come let us remember that our object is first, and always, the preservation of our country and to the end that that country may re- main a vast and splendid monument of wisdom, of peace and of liberty up- on which the world may gaze with admiration forever. ‘The mentbers of the class follo Percy A.
