DR. BLISS ADDRESSES
GRADUATES OF 1916
Our own national life during the
last two years reveals at once the
difficulty and the necessity of secur
ing such a working platform. It is
obvious that this vast country of ours
is insufficiently unified, either in race,
in ideas, or in concurrent action. We
must always expect that different geo
graphical sections, each with its own
preoccupations, different economic
and social classes, each with its own
material interests to maintain, will
have divergent views which must be
adjusted through a series of compro
mises. Compromise must inevitably
be the method of any self-governing
democracy. The average Californian
seems to be afraid of a Japanese inva
sion; the average manufacturer and
capitalist of the Atlantic sea-board
seems to be afraid of bombardments
by battleships from Europe; the aver
age white citizen of Mississippi is
afraid of political equality with the
average black citizen. My summer
neighbors in the Green mountains of
Vermont have never lost a night's
sleep .or a day's work over the negro
peril or the Oriental peril or the bom
bardment peril. Yet their representa
tives in congress share with Califor
nians and Mississipplans and New
Yorkers the responsibility of provi
sion for national defense and national
progress. The adjustment of local in
terests to general interests gets it
self accomplished, more or less per
fectly. But some of the issues raised here
by the war which has desolated Eu
rope demand a still more unified and
coherent Americanism. It is evident
that we are not yet clear about our
own national purpose and policy, not
yet ready for areal solidarity of ac
tion. And if the United States, after 140
years of welding. Is not yet, in the
truest sense, united, what shall be
said of the tragic Incoherence of
those mother states of Europe from
which all of us have sprung? Is
there anyone so blind, after these two
years of international agony, as not to
see that world organization has be
come necessary; a world court and a
world legislature and some form of
world executive to see that interna-
tional law and international judicial
decisions shall be respected and obey
ed? I am not arguing at this moment
for the specific recommendations of
the League to Enforce Peace in wheih
so many of us are enlisted. I am
simply reminding you that any Amer
ican program for the perpetuation
and the popularization of that war
system which has brought Europe Into
disastrous collapse raises far deeper
issues than are involved in our own
national security. We still have an
opportunity, such as was never grant
ed to any nation, to help lift the bur
den of war from the shoulders of men
and the hearts of women every
where. If there is reason tor perplexity,
therefore, as you face the! confused is
sues of the present hour, there is
also reason for rejoicing. Beneath
the surface of passionate and selfish
and cynical discussion, there., are
streams of right tendency, currents of
humanized thoughts and feelings. You
must penetrate to them, put your
selves into wholesome relations with
them. If you are shocked at the con
tradictions, the grotesque inequalities
of the human lot, then do something
to level and adjust those inequalities.
