Address to G. 0. P. Convention
by Temporary Chairman.
EARNEST PLEA FOR HARMONY
National Defense, Protective Tariff,
Square Deal for Business and
Straight Americanism 8et
Forth as Country's Needs.
Chicago, Juno 7. Senator Warron
Q. Harding of Ohio as temporary chair
Jnan of tho Republican national conven
tion today sounded tho keynote of the
Iarty'B campaign. His addreBa -was
in part aa follows:
Gentlemen of the Convention: It
is good to greet this representative
tody of that American Republican
ism on which are centered tho high
liopes of the republic. I can bellove
nay, 1 know that a vast majority of
tho people of our United States Is ex
yoctlng the party sponsors hero assem
bled to wrlto anew tho sacred cove
nant of Republicanism, and reconse
crate the party to tho nation's service
suid tho people's advancement. That
samo majority expects you to select a
standard-bearer who shnll not only
typify our expression of, faith, but
shall so enlist tho confidence and trust
of our American citizenship that the
work of this convention will bo con
.firmed overwhelmingly at the ballot
lox next November.
Tho country, wearied afresh by a
disappointing and distressing Demo
cratic administration, is calling for
Republican relief, and there Is every
inspiration, overy encouragement, ev
ery confidence that tho light of Repub
lican conscience, set aflamo in this
orivontlon, will Illumine tho way to
tho country's restoration.
Wo did not do very well In making
for harmony tho last time wo met.
Tho country has regretted, let us for
got and make amends to oifr country.
Wo did not divide over fundamental
principles, wo did not disagree over a
national policy. We split over meth
ods of party procedure and preferred
personalities. Let us forget tho dif
ferences, and find now inspiration and
now compensation in an united en
deavor to restore the country.
The essential principles of Repub
licanism are unchanged and unchang
ing; the lofty lntont, the ludcstructl
bio soul and tho undying spirit of Re
publicanism are as dominant today as
1n tho destined beginning GO years
ago, or at any time during tho inter
vening years, and thoy are empha
sized today by tho proof recorded to
Republican credit in tho matchless
chapters of American progress.
The World at War.
Much of the discussion of the hour
1s hinged upon a world at war. We
need not wonder thereat, because tho
normlty of tho conflict and tho Influ
ences of its upheaval havo set man
kind In upheaval. Tho traditions of
civilization have been broken and in
ternational laws have been Ignored.
There Is a tidal wave of distress and
disaster, there are violent emotions
and magnified fears. There are the
cxtremos of Incalculable sacrifices
and measureless now fortunes not
all American. There arc now won
ders and new hindrances in com
merce, changed balances of trade,
new marvels In finance and utterly
changed economic conditions. These
liavo attended embarrassments in our
foreign relations as difficult as thoso
-which tho Individual citizen experi
ences whoso every neighbor Is In--volved
in deadly quarrel. Everything
1s abnormal except tho depleted con
dition of tho federal treasury, which
is characteristic of Democratic con
trol, and tho facility of tho adminis
tration In writing varied notes with
out offective notice.
Amid theso conditions has stood
this unarmed giant, typifying the
American republic, noutral and sane,
to whom tho neutral nations have
turned for leadership. Our national
unselfishness had been proven, our
dovotlon to humanity had been es
tablished, our committal to Interna
tional Justlco had long been pro
claimed. The world had previously
heard tho voice of American fearless
ness, and all tho conditions single us
out for leadership among tho neutral
powers, but tho administration at
Washington spoko with more rhetoric
than resolution, and wo camo to re
alize what tho warring powers soon
camo to know, that the official Amer
ican voice lacked the volume of de
termined expression that once de
manded International hoed, and we
lacked tho strength of confidence In
our own dofonses.
For National Defense.
Perhaps It Is a reminder more than
a discovery, but thcr'o has como to
us a conviction that this great nation,
rich In resources and strong in pa
triotic manhood, has been negligent
concerning Us own defense. Wo havo
dwelt In fancied rather than real se
curity. Pride mingles with regret in
this, because It suggests the mind of
a nation so free from intended of
fense that there waB no cultivated
thought of needed defense. Our right
eousness of purpose is portrayod in
our trust In unarmed safety. Rut
there Is a warning in bleeding Eu
rope, and thore Is a call today for pru
dent, patriotic and ample national do
fenso. There Is no mistaking tho son
timent. Wo are not thinking of tho
hysterical, wo neod not bo moved by
SOUNDS
a preparedness which Is partisan In
concuption. Wo need not bollevo In
a defense propaganda Inspired by
thoso who aim to wax fat In tho pro
duction of arms and munitions, be
causo thcro is none. I deplore tho
teaching that an anxiety about our na
tional dofenso Is Inspired by greed.
Wo rejoice In free speech and free
press and untrammeled opinion, but
patriotism is illy promoted by the Im
putation of false motives, whethor
aimed at those who believe In defense
or thoso who doubt Its wisdom. Such
a teaching rends tho concord of citi
zenship, which may develop a worse
peril from within than from any en
emy without.
Though we do not pretend to be
exclusive In our devotion, wo Repub
licans bellove, "lncerely and soberly,
In adequate national defense. We
havo always believed In an ample
navy, as invincible In modern might
as John Paul Jones bulldod In our
freedom's earliest fight. Wo hare In
mind a protected commerce on the
waters, and & seacoast secure in
strong naval defense. Wo vero build
ing to high rank among naval powers
when tho Democratic party Interrupt
ed, and wo subscrlbo to a stronger
committal now, because of a new re
alization of tho onvy which our
wealth and our commerce invito, and
a now appreciation of our command
ing place in the affairs of tho world.
I shall not say that It 1b ours to havo
the greatest navy In the world, but
noting the elimination of distance and
tho passing of our onetime Isolation,
we ought to havo navy that fears
none In the world, and can say any
timo and anywhero: Theso are Amer
ican rights and must be respected.
No Curse of Militarism.
Let no one apprehend the curso of
militarism in this fair lard. Wo do
clare unalterably against it. Our
free cltfzenshlp, walking confidently,
absorbed In tho triumphs of peace,
would tolerate no such blight on
American institutions. There is no
surrender of cherished Ideals. With
that yearning for peaco which has
marked our continued development,
with that same committal to Justice
which has given us front rank in tho
-Senator Warren G. Harding.
onward march of civilization, with
that rare unselfishness which led us
to unshcath tho sword for humanity's
sako and put all territorial aggrandize
ment aside, with that belief in the
squaro deal, individual, national and
international, which is tho foundation
of American faith, wo mean to go on,
an exemplar of .peace to all the na
tions, an arbiter of justice to all tho
world, a promoter of righteousness
to all tho people of tho earth.
At tho same time wo have more to
do than to chart a national course
through the waters surging with tho
turbulence of war; our Inspiring
course is on the highway of peaco.
Our armed defense must over be
linked with our industrial self-reliance,
and tho nation worth dying for
must first bo worth living for. Out of
nature's prodigality wo havo Incal
culable resources and limitless possi
bilities, and there Is need only for
tho unhindered application of man's
genius and industry to make us as in
dependent Industrially as we are freo
politically. Amplo defenso rosts on
industrial freedom and self-reliance as
well as patriotic sacrifice, and Indus
trial preparedness gives that assur
ance of material good fortune In
peace on which must be founded all
our higher aspirations.
The Protective Policy.
Subsistence is the first requisite of
existence, and we have the higher
American standard of living because
of tho Republican protoctlvo policy
which makes of Americans tho best
paid workmen in all the world. Out
of the abundanco of employment and
higher compensation, togethor with
the beckoning opportunity which of
fers every reward, we Americans have
attracted the laborers of the earth,
and set new standards here.
It is not for me to put the stamp of
relative importance on pending Is
sues the Intolllgont voters will de
termine that for themselves. But I
know what they are thinking, and
thoy believe that the protoctlvo policy
which made us industrially and com
mercially eminent Is necessary to
preservo that eminence. I know thoy
want it restored and maintained. For
myself, I prefer a protective and pro
ductive tariff which prospers Amer
ica first. I chooso tho economic pol
icy which sends tho American work
ing men to tho savings banks rather
than the souphouses. I commend tho
plan undor which tho healthful glow
of prospering business Is reflected In
overy faco from tho great captain of
Industry to tho schooling child of tho
dally wago-earner.
The Democratic party Is always con
cerned about tho American consumer.
Our Republican achievement Is tho
making of a nation of prospering pro
ducers, and by producers I mean ov
ery human botng who applies muscle
or skill or brain or all to tho conver
sion of nature's abundanco Into the
nocoasltles and luxuries of llfo or par
ticipates In tho wayB and means ol
tholr transportation and exchange
Far hotter a high cost of living and
ability to buy than a lowering of cost
attended by destruction of purchaalnu
capacity.
Square Deal for Business.
No honest business in this country
It too big to be good and useful, or
too little to bo protected and encour
aged, and both big and Httlo deserv
tho American shield against destruc
tion by foroign competition, and pro
tection from tho raiders, political ol
otherwise, at home. Business and Iti
agonclcs of transportation are bo In
separable from each other and from
the common weal that tho political
party which does not pledge them o
squaro deal, no more and no less, dooa
not deserve the confidence of tho peo
ple. The strength of tho buslncsi
heart shows In every countenance In
all tho land, and the weakness of that
heart holds a nation 111. We must
strengthen the heart of American
bUBlnoss In government co-operation
rather than official opposition.
It is not inspiring to rcclto Demo
cratic failures. I shall not dwell on
that party's Insincerity or Incapacity.
Tho country indicts and tho record
convicts. It proclaimed tho sacred
noss of Its pledges and then profaned
them It professed economy and la
staggered by Its own extravagance.
It has turned adequacy or revonuo un
dor direct and unfolt taxes to Insuffi
ciency and direct taxation.
The National Expansion.
Tho president has said ours Is a
provincial party, evidently forgetting
the federalist founding of our nation
ality and Republican expansion to
greater national glory. The Demo
cratic party not only falls to grasp
our Immensity and Importance, It 1b
sectional on the mainland and unheed
ing of our island possessions. Its vi
sion does not catch the splendor of
Old Glory In the sunlight of tho world.
Right new when tho devouring flames
of war are burning most flcrcoly,
when our national view must bo
world-wldo to bo comprehensive, tho
Democratic administration has pro
posed to set adrift an island empire,
in violation of our obligations to the
world, to tho Philippine people and
ourselves. No administration which
hauls down the flag and nono which
proposes to haul it down over can suc
ceed in directing the affairs of tho
American people.
One century of marvelous develop
ment has led us into anothor century
of International sponsorship. This
mighty people, Idealizing popular
govornment and committed to human
progress, can no longer live within
and for ourselves alono. Obliterated
distance makes it impossible to stand
aloof from mankind and escape wid
ened responsibility. If wo are to be
come tho agency of a progresslvo civ
ilization and God's great intent and
to believe otherwise is to deny tho
proofs of American development wo
must assume the responsibilities ot
influence and oxamplo, and accept tho
burdens of enlarged participation.
To meet the obligations we must
first make sure of maintained mental,
moral and physical health at homo.
The American Spirit.
In tho trayall of life, liberty and
tho pursuit of happiness tho Amer
ican soul was born. Set aglow at
Bunker Hill, it was reflected in tho
facos of patriots of a fearless repub
lic, where men dedicated thcmsolves
to tho solemn and momentous task
which was traced by an Infinite hand.
Thoy wore not all Americans by
birth, but they wore dedicated Amor
leans in tho baptismal rites of a new
republic and a new patriotism. They
could not all sign tho Declaration of
Independence, but they committed all
Americans to it for all succeeding
time. Thoy could not all Join In mak
ing tho Constitution, but thoy pledged
tho Bucceeding millions of Americans
to its everlasting dofenso.
Tho gates of our ports havo swung
Inward over since, there has been a
welcome to tho foreign-born, whom
wo asked to drink freely of tho wators
of our political life and find their
places in tho sun of American oppor
tunity. They are an Inseparable and
Important and valued part of Ameri
can citizenship, and the few zealots of
any origin who violate our neutrality
do not and cannot impugn the loyalty
or tho American patriotism of that
great body which adds to the swelling
chorus of
"My country, 'tis of theo,
Sweet, land of liberty."
It is not surprising that In their
hearts thero Is sympathy or partiality
for tho land of their nativity when It
is involved in a Ufc-and-death struggle
like that which saturates Europe with
the bldod of their kinsmen. Search
your hearts deeply, my countrymen.
One must bo human to bo an Ameri
can, ho must have human sympathies
and human loves, and I should pity
tho. foreign-born and the sons of foreign-born
whoso very souls are not
wrung by the cataclysmal sorrow of
tho old world. But sorrow Is tho test
of soul and tho very altar of recon
secratlon. This is tho momentous
hour for tho blazing goui of Ameri
can allegiance. Tho spirit of tho fa
thers 1b calling, and the safety of un
born Americans Is demanding and tho
security of tho republic In requiring
that now and hero and everywhere,
under tho Star and Stripes, wo pro
claim a plain, simplo, glad and unal
terable Americanism. It must be tho
offering of loyalty and dovotlon and
lovo and trust, and llfo, If need bo,
to thoso United States, now and ovor
