Today the nation pays solemn trib

the past, but it is also important, to
take thought of the future. Condi

classes of citizens must continue the

cred ' obligation of every citizen to
do his part day by day-that the
nation may prosper and that con

Washington. D. C, Nov. U.-Th
text of President Harding's address
at the burial of an unknown soldier
at Arlington cemetery follows!
Mr. Secretary of War and Ladies
and Gentlemen:
We are met today to pay the Im
personal tribute. The name of him
whose body lies before us took flight
with his imperishable soul. We know
not whence he came, but only that
his death marks him with the ever,
lasting glory of an American dying
lor his country.
He might have eome from any
one of millions of American comes
Some mother gave him in her love
and tenderness of her most cherished
hopes. Hundreds of mothers are
wondering today, finding a touch of
solace in the possibility that the na
tion bows in grief over the body
of one she bore to live and die, if
need be, for the republic. If we
give rein to fancy, s score of sym
i-athetic chords .are touched, .for in
this body there once glowed the
soul of an American with the aspira
tions and ambitions of a citizen who
cherished life and its opportunities.
He may have been a native or an
adopted soiu that matters little, le
cause they glorified the same loy'
alty they sacrificed alike
Mansion and Cottage. .
We do not know his station in life,
because from every station came the
patriotic response of the 5,000,000.
1 recall the days 6f creating armies
and the departing of caravans which
braved the murderous seas to reach
the battle lines for maintained na
tionality and preserved civilization,
The service flag marked mansion
end cottage alike and riches were
common to all homes in the con
sciousness of service to country.
We do not know the eminence of
his birth, but we do know the alorv
of his death. He died for his coun
try, and greater devotion hath no
man than this. He died unquestion
ing, uncomplaining, with faith in his
heart and hope on his lips, that his
country should triumph and its civ
ilization survive. As a typical sol
dier of this representative democra
cy he fought and died, believing in
tile indisputable justice of his coun
try s cause. Conscious of the world's
upheaval, appraising the magnitude
of a war the like of which had never
horrified humanity before perhaps,
he neiieved his to be a service des
tined tochange the tide of human
affairs. ' ' ' -:
Great God Over All.
In the death gloom of gas, the
bursting ci shells and the rain of
bullets, men face more intimately
the great God over all, their souls
are aflame and consciousness ex
pands and hearts are searched. With
the din of battle the glow of conflict
and the supreme trial of courage
come involuntarily the hurried ap
praisal of life and the contemplation
of death's great mystery. On the
threshold of eternity many a sol
dier, I can well believe, wondered
how his ebbing blood would color
the stream oi human life,, flowing
om after v his . sacrificed His', patri
otism wasvvacme less if -he; -cravecl
more ithan ' triumph ' of .'".country;,
rather,' it was greater if he hoped for
a victory for all human kind. ; In
deed, I revere that citizen whc.
confidence in the righteousness of
his country inspired belief that 'its
triumph is the victory of Jiumanity.
This American soldier went forth
to battle with no hatred for any peo
ple in the world, but hating war and
hating the purpose of every war for
conquest. He cherished our na
tional rights and abhorred the threat
of; armed domination; ' and in the
maelstrom of destruction and suffer
ing and death he fired his shot for
liberation of the captive conscience
of the world,1 in advancing toward
his objective was somewhere a
thought of a world awakened; and
we are here to. testify undying grati
tude and reverence for that thought
of a wider freedom.
On such '.n occasion ss thi, amM
such a scene, our thoughts tlternat
between defenders living ond do
fenders dead. A grateful republic
will b worthy of tr.em both. Our
part is to stone for the losses of
heroic dead by making a better re
public for the living.
Baptism of Freedom,
Sleeping in these hallowed grounds
are thousands of Americans who
have given their blood for the bap
tiim of freedom and its mainten
ances, armed exponents of the na
tion's conscience. It is better and
nobler (or their deeds. Burial here
is rather more than a sign of the
government's favor, it is a suggestion
of a tomb in the heart of the nation
sorrowing for its noble dead.
Today's ceremonies proclaim that
the hero unknown is not unhonored.
We gather him to the nation's breast,
within the shadow of the capitol, of
the towering shaft that honors
Washington, the great father, and
of the exquisite monument to Lin
coln, the martyred, savior. Here
the inspirations of yesterday and the
conscience of today forever unite to
make the republic worthy of his
death for flag and country.
Ours . are lofty resolutions today,
as with tribute to the dead we conse
crate ourselves to a better order for
the living. With all my heart I wish
we might say to the defenders who
survive, to mothers who sorrow, to
widows and children who mourn,
that no such sacrifice shall be asked
again
Modern Warfare.
It was my fortune recently to see
a demonstration of modern-warfare
It is no longer a conflict in chivalry,
no more a test of militant manhood
It is only cruel, deliberate, scientific
destruction. There was no contend
ing enemy, only the theoretic de
fense of a hypothetic objective. But
the attack was made with all the
relentless methods of modern de
struction.
There was the rain of ruin from
the aircraft, the thunder of artillery
followed by the unspeakable dev
astation wrought by bursting shells;
there were mortars belching their
bombs of desolation; machine gun;
concentrating their leaden ' storms;
there was the infantry advancing,
firing, and falling like men with souls
sacrificing for the decision. The fly
ing m'ssiles were revealed by il
luminating tracers so that we could
note their flight and appraise their
deadlrness. The air was streaked with
tiny flames marking the flight of
massed destruction; while the effec
tiveness of the theoretical defense
was impressed by the simulation of
dead and wounded among those go
ing forward, undaunted and unheed
ing. ; '"."','-'"'.,:-
As this panorama of unutterable
destruction visualized the horrors of
modern conflict there grew on me
the sense of the failure of a civiliza
tion which .can leave its problems to
such cruel arbitrament. Surely no
one in authority with v human : at
tributes and full .appraisal of the pa
triotic loyalty of ' his countrymen;
could ask the manhood of kingdoftf,
empire or republic to , make sudi
sacrifice until all reason had failed,
until appeal to justice through un
derstanding had been denied, until
ever effect of love and' consideration
for followmen had been exhausted,
until freedom itself - and inviolate
honor had been brutally threatened.
v; Not Fearing War. '; V ?
I speak not as a pacifist fearing,
war, but as one who loves justice
and hates war. I speak as one who
believes the highest function cf gov-!
ernment is to give its citizens the
security of peace, the opportunity to
achieve and the pursuit of happiness.-
The loftiest tribute we can bestow
today an heroically earned tribute
fashioned in deliberate conviction,
out of unclouded thought, neither
shadowedty remorse nor made vain
by fancies, is the commitment of
this republic to an advancement
never made before. H American
achievement is a cherished pride at
home, if our unselfishness among
nations is alt we with it to le and
ours is a helpful example in the
world, then let us give of Our in
Auence and strength, yea, of our a
pirttioni and convictions," to put
mankind on a little higher plane,
exulting and exalting i with vir
distressing and depressing tragedies
barred from the stage ot righteous
civilization.
, Hallowed Be Thy Name.
Standing today on hallowed
ground, conscious that all America
has halted to share in the tribute of
heart and mind and soul to this fel
low American, and knowing that the
world is noting this expression of
the republic's mindtuluets, it is fit
ting to say that his sacrifice, and
that of the millions dead, shall not
be vain. There must be, there shall
be, a commanding voice of a con
scious civilization against armed war
fare.
As we return this poor clay to its
mother soil, garlanded by love and
covered with the decorations that
only nations can bestow, I sense the
prayers of our people, of our peoples,
that this Armistice day shall mark
the day of a new and lasting era of
peace on earth, good will among men.
Let me join in that prayer.
Our Father which art in Heaven,
hallowed ,be Thy name. Thy king
dom come. Thy will be done, on
earth as it is in Heaven. Give us
this day our daily bread, and torgive
us our trespasses as we forgive those
who tresspass against us. And lead
us not into temptation, but deliver
us from evil for Thine is the king
dom and the power and glory for
ever. Amen,
