Ir. ’Peasoa. it is very delightful. for
, if I may say so, to know
my presidency ls'not ahead of me. and
that his presidency is ahead of him.:
I wish him every happiness and every .

In American State is a taslt. or uni-at
lieved responsibility. American eon-
atitutiens as a rule put so many due
ties of the highest sort upon the presi~
dent, and so much of the responsibil-
ity of affairs of state is centered upon
him. that his years of onice are apt to
be years a little weighted with aux-
iety, a little burdened with the sense
of the obligation of speaking for his
people, speaking what they really
think aml endeavoring to accomplish
what they really desire.
"i suppose no more delicate task is
given. any man than to interpret the
feelings and the purposes of a great
people. 1 know that. if i may speak
!
' for myself. the chief anxiety l have
had has been to be-the true interpret-
er of a national spirit, expressing no
private and peculiar vi‘ews, but trying
to express the geenral spirit of a na-
tion. And a nation looks to its presi-
dent to do that; and the comradeship
of an evening like this does not con-
sist merely of the sense of neighbor-
hood. We are neighbors. We have
always been friends. But that is all
old. Something new has happened.
I am not sure that i can put it into
words, but there has been added to
the common principles which have
united the Americas time out of mind
a feeling that the world at large has
accepted those principles. that there
has gone a thrill of hope and of ex-
pectation throughout the nations. of
the World which somehow 3001115 to
have its source and fountain in things
we always believed in. it is as if the
pure waters of the fountains we had
always drunk from had now been put
to the lips of all the peoples. and they
have drunk and were refreshed.
“And it is a delightful thought to
believe that these are fountains which
sprang up out of the soil of the Am-
ericas i am not. of course. suggest-

*worthy of them. 1 remember not long
ago attunding a very interesting
meeting which was held in the inter-
est of combining Christian missionary

eliminating the rivalry between
churches and agreeing that (‘hristizm

adopted. the inhabitants of the [walli-
en'c-ounlries would not come to look
at us, because we were not ourseh't-s

“My moral from that recollcc'“
this: \Ve, among other friends of lib-

the interest of brotherhood and mu.

we must set he example.
,“I will recall here to some of you
an efl'ort thatl myself made some
years ago. soon after I assumed tho.
Presidency of the United States, to
do that very thing. i was urging the
other States of America to unite with
the United States in doing something
whichvery closely reassembled the'
formation of the present League of
Nations. 1 was ambitions to have the
Americas do the .thing first. and set
the exampre to the World of what we
are how about. to realize. I had a
double object in it. not only my pride
that the Americans should set the ex-
ample and show the genuineness of
their principles. but that the United
States should have anew relation to
the other America. The United
States upon a 13mm occasion, warn-
Qd the now-cumin of Europe that it
would regard it as an unfriendly net
