Speaking beforo tho University
club at its annual banquet at Wash
ington, Feb. 14, Col. George Harvey,
editor and publicist of New York, is
quoted by the Washington Star as
saying:'
"ruining could bo more faithful
or more iatei'ui than tills common
misapprehension tnat our going to
war would be a laeicadaisicai auair,
mut, having once engaged in the
controversy, we could occupy re
served seuis on the side lines and
from that point of vantage plumpiy
cheer on Uie bleeding and dying
gladiators without risk to our own
prpciouu selves. The most primitive
sense of honor and of pride, to say
nothing of the fear 'or shame and
contumely, would impel us instantly
to prove our manhood and to do
our bit.
"If, even in the distressed circum
stances under which we now And
ourselves, we should fail within
two months to place at least 100,000
of the finest soldfers in the world
shoulder to shoulder with the gal
lant sons of, France we would be
known and deserve to be known' as
either tho most' incnicient' or- the
most contemptible" of 'noble races.
There is always a . psychological
time to strike and that would be the
time for us. ' , " v .' ',
"Picture in your, minds the thrill
that would pass down- that long, thin
line stretching from FlanderB to
Switzerland, when word should 'come
that the vanguard of the lighting
from our allies, who so long have
borne tho frightful burden of war
for all. No special consideration!
No mental reservations! No separate
peace! None upon this sole condi
tion, that the infamous autocracy
and the dastardly rulers, who perpe
trated this most hideous and awful
of crimes, shall be deprived forever
of jower over their own or any other
people. If we are to light success
fully the battle of democracy, we
must know that democrapy, nqtJ
sham, but real, is going to win a
complete triumph for all -time and
for all those, whom, fighting, we love
and fight to free. Then w th whole
hearts and whole souls arid all our
might let us put the great shoulder
of America to the wheel of war and
crush out of existence w'-tli irre
sistible force any and all who would
deprive God's children of .their
rightful heritage of inherent r'ght
to life, liberty and pursuit, of hap
piness. Fears "Craven Peace"
"That is the thing to do, the only
thing to do. The time may come
when we can utilize a league to en
force peace, but what we want now
is a league to enforce war, to the
end that peace may come and come
quickly. I know wnat war is. I know
what this war is. With my own
eyes I have seen the flower of their
race streaming home in thousands,
wounded and ding, to those no less
stricken at home. I hate war even
a righteous war. But I fear peace
sons of liberty and of free Amerlcuiv a craven peace, ar. sinful peace.
wore hastening eagerly forward- over
the soil of France, and that behind
them in the great republic a million
more and back of them yet another
million were being trained to take
over the places of the exhausted sol
diers of France,. and to, win for the
children of those soldiers the in
estimable benefit of imperishable
freedom.
- Opportunity for Service
"What would not any of you give
to accompany that first body, of our
splendid regulars through, .the de
vastated fields of Normandy and
wave response to the war-worn peas
antry raising their faces and their
voices in gratitude and hope? And
what would you not give tq hear
from those brave lads of the trench
es the first joyous 'Vive l'Amerique,'
and hear the Tommies shout, 'Here
come the Americans!' Music such
as that, my friends, springs only
from on high to lift up the hearts
of noble men who 'their duties know,
but know their rights, and, know
ing, dare maintain.'
"And what would such a scene
signify if not the beginning of the
etfd, not only of jthe great war, but of
autocracy itself? For, mind you,
when finally America joins nanus
with France and Britain and the
three great democracies muster as
a single force, as I pray they may,
upon the battlefield of the world all
Heaven will ring with rejoicing, for
God has said, I am tired of kings.
. "So I say to you, gentlemen,
if we must fight, as we always
have fought willingly, eagerly, glad
ly for' human liberty and hu
man rights, let there be no palter
ing, no half-heartedness, no mere
firing and falling back, but let all
yes, all to the very last and feeblest
of our omnipotent hundred mil
lions take their stand as one behind
our chosen leader and mean it. when
we implore the Almighty to give us
liberty qr.give us death.
I. "And let us hold back nothing
And I glory openly and proudly in
the present prospect of conflict
which- so many hold calamitous,' I
revel in the hope that our great, -independent
America may not be-, de
prived of the privilege of doingrtfer
part in making and keeping the hu
man race freje from the menace of
tyranny. Above and beyond all,
God forbid that poltroonery in the
guisq.of pacifism shall now or ever
emerge from the cradle of liberty."
