to a query incorporating the assump-
tion that ‘tbe ease provided for and
prescribed had arisen' and that ‘tbo
extraneous attack did exist precisely
as it does exist today in Poiand,‘ the
President admitted specficully that 'we
would be untrue if we did not keep our
word.’
“Replying further to a question
which perhaps I ought not to have
considered necessary. the President
pronounced a moral obligation 'of
course. superior to adegal obligation'
and of ‘a greater binding force.’
“What, then, becomes of the argu-
ment that Congress, not the President,
in this instance at any rate, might
‘keep us out of war? Technically, of
course, it could do so. Moraliy, with
equal certainty. it could not do so nor
would it ever do so. The American
people would never permit a repudia-
tion of a debt of honor.
“Am I not right, my countrymen,
in saying that we needed only the
outbreak of war between Poland and
Russia to make us realize at least
one of the things which, in the words
of Secretary Lansing.~-we- wouidahavB

”One can have-no quarrel with-those
.who have: convinced themselves that
ourtusderlying purpose in entering the
great conflict was. to. mate a league
of nations. The fact remains. how-
ever. that no such intent was. partially
acclaltsed, no anusion. nor-even caug-
gestlon to that. etllect appeared-in the
Joint resolutionof Congress which de-
clared, the existence of a state, of war
between this. country and Germany.
For myself I left. no room for doubt
of the motives which led me to cast
my vote in' favor of that resolution.
It so happened that I made thecon-
cluding speech upon the war resolu-
tion. from my place in the senate, on
the night of April 4. 1917. Those-were
my own words at that time:
“‘1 want it known to the people of
my state-and to the nation that I am
voting for war tonight for the main-
tenance of Just American rights, which
is the first essential to the preserva-
tion of the soul of this republic.
“‘I vote for this Joint resolution to
make war, not a. war thrust upon us.
if I could choose the language of the
resolution, but a war declared in re-
sponse to afl'ronts: a war that will
at least put a soul into our American
life; a war not for the cause of the
allies of Elmo; a war not for France.
beautiful as ‘tliewuntlment may be in
reviving at least our gratitude to the
French people; not precisely a war for
civilization, worthy and inspiring as
that would be; but a war that speaks
for the majesty of a people properly
governed, who finally are brought to
the crucial test where they are re-
solved to get together and wage a con-
liict for the maintenance of their
rights and the preservation of the
covenant inherited from their fathers.
"We have given to the world the
spectacle of a great nation that could
make war without selfish intent. We
unsheathed the sword some eighteen
years ago for the first time in the his-
tory of the world, in the name of hu-
manity, and we gave proof to the
world at that time of anunseltlsh na-
tion. Now, whether it is the fate, or
fortune, or travail of destiny, it‘ has
come to us to nnsheathe thesword
again, not alone for humanity‘s sake-
through that splendid inspiration will
be involved—but to unshonthe the
sword against a great power ln.'tbe

public, in the maintenance which will

want it known, Mr, President and sen-
ators, that this is the lmpclllug thought

For Same.Guaranty Today.
"It is for that. same ‘guaranty of aa-
tionality‘ that I stand today, and 'shall
continue to stand inflexibly. [along
«as I shall be permitted to live. The
independence of our, great republic is
to me a priceless. and sacred inheri-

constituted at Versailles is utterly in.
