GOV. TEMPLETON CALLS DEFENSE
DAY, SEPT. 12,
HARTFORD. Aug. 23.—Declar-
in; that it was not "in a spirit of
boastfulncss. but in a spirit of self-
examination that Defense Day was
to be Observed and “that to be pre-
pared for war is one of 'thc most
effective means of securing peace."
Governor Charles A. Templeton to-
day issued the following statement:
"To the People of Connecticut:
"In order that this country may
enjoy peace and have strength to
resist aggression and maintain the
right, a. reasonable degree of Inili<
tary preparedness is necessary. To
this end. the President of the
United States has designated Sep-
tember 12th as National Defense
Day.
"It. is appropriate that this day
should be selected for such an ob-
servance. _Six years before there
was fought the battle of St. Mihlcl.
the first offensive in which Amer-
ican soldiers participated as an
American Army. It was a turning
point in the war.
"'But this .day is not for the pur-
pose of celebrating a military feat.
It is to be observed. not in a. spirit
of boastfuincss, but in a. spirit of
self-examination: Our country‘s
state of unpreparedness when in
1917 we entered the war was shock-
ing. A year elapsed before our
strength began to make itself felt.
If our nation had been attacked a
the outset. as Belgium was attacked
we should have suffered terribh.
losses.
we are not much prepared now. It
the lesson-is not heeded, our young
men will some day be sacrificed for
lack of preparation.
"To be prepared for war is one
of the most effective means 01 se-
curing peace. We all hate war. but
war may herali notwithstanding our
hatred- of it. We love, peace. but
others may break peace. Therefore.
we must ntain a defensive es-
tablisment. nd every citizen and
every dollar must be available in
the event of war. This is not mili—
tarism—it is the opposite of mill-
tarism. ‘
' "National Defense Day is a test
of the availability of the men and
resources of the United States in
case of an emergency. In estimating
that strength, let‘it not be forgot-
ten that. while arms are impel-taut,
out-citizens must be. the ones to
wield these arms; and that without
the spirit of patriotism and self-
sacrifice. neither man-powe. nor
arms can prevail.
"In turtherance of the President‘s
purposes I commend to the people
of Connecticut the loyal observance
of this day. And I recommend that,
along with this dembnstration of a
willingness to . do , our duty. we
pledge ourselves to the maintenance cc.
of that spirit of moderation, kindli-
hem. and sympathy .stowards other
nations. or whatever race or. color
