Rev. W. W. l. Dunoao
Speaks ooi’rosltiot Roose-
velt's tatestllooumont to
Congress;
._—_——_——
licv. W, W. 'l‘. Duncan's prelude III
was on "The Keynote of the Presl-
dent's Message." He said:
The key IiOtv of the President's Mcs-
srige is national righteousness. Pros-
perity. policy and national gtory iirc nll
subordinated to moral ciiuraclcr. The
president stairs a principle which has
characterized his conduct from the be-
glnnlng. but which is not often openly
avowed by priblic nien. namely, that
frank acknowledgment by the nation of
wrongdoing within its bounds. is high-
ly beneficial to Itself as well as credita-
hle. It has been very common with
men in responsible positions to declare
that the existence of corruption and
fraud should riot be announced. since
its unounccrncnt gave to the city or Illi-
tiori where it exists-d. a bad name. This
has led to tho Int-rs of popular conti-
dciicc both In the public stair-merits
and the personal attitude of politi-
cians. There are two things that ac
need to rcmrmber in this connection.
lr‘lrst. That the piibllc acknowledg-
ment of corruption In the nation com-
mlts those in authority to an aggres-
sive crusade against It. l'ollticltlils
would rather say nothing about It and
illffl tiiey would not stultify them-
selves when they took no measures to
remove it. Confession of sin always
places a man under obligation to for‘
sake that sin. The obligation is heav-
ier today for us as a people than ever
in the past to make strenuous effort
it) purge the. government of corruption.
bribery and favoritism because of the
honest and open statements of our
president.
Second. It needs to be also remem-
bered that the only way in which ac-
knowledgment of corruption in govern-
.1ou is by letting that acknowledgment
ment can injure the good name of a na-
he followed by an inactive and effort-
icss attitude toward the wrong. When
this attitude prevails. denunciation be-
comes mere slander of hypocrisy:
there are pcoprt wno take onlgnl in
dcfumlng a city or u nation. but who
cfilltd not be persuaded to enter into
any campaign tor the actual removal
of the.wrongs they so readily denounce.
lilll such moral cowards anti slnlldcrers
should not divert us from the saltiiory
effect of pirhllc denunciation of wrong
when coupled with effort to remove it.
There are three mattres of which the
prcsidrnt speaks in this sport. rum.
the relation of capital and labor. He
menus that capitalist and laborer must
stand before the some bar of righteous-
ness. He says that no man is above
the. low. and no man is below the law.
that no man's permission is risked
when he ls required to obey the law‘.
.hcdicnce is demanded as ll right. not
askd as a favor. The rights or in.
capitalist. of the individual laborer
and of the general public must be safe-
gunrded. The establishment of n De-
.iartlurnt of Commerce and Labor with
. special Department of Corporations,
which has taken place this year. will.
by the securing of proper publicity re-
.arding corporations, prevent miscon-
illf’l. remove ignorant prejudice and
tive public sentiment a better oppor-
.unity to make itself felt in commer-
cial circles. _
Second. The land. postal olid natu-
allzation frauds. it is here that the
president defines his attitude toward
orruption referred to show. He. dc-
:lares that the givers and takers of
