There never .was a Uroe when the people
of this country n eli d to Ite p their h~id6
and set thek teetb more than thll present.
We are at. a -crucial stage of (he war-the
year of dElcislon.
Upon our ability and
Willingness to go thro\lgh the period of
trial without flinching depends OUI 11be~
~nd prosperity in the future. We entered
the war with the highest motives-in de ..
. fence of the sanctity of the treaty ",hleh
guaranteed tHIl reuh·o.llty of 0. small nllttlon
as . a protection agwn)! win. It,.:is \~
that. behind all this l~y the qul'StJon of.o\rr
national safety.
GennaJlY had thr~,h
two centuries of aggressive war grbwn into
a 1118 Ji;mpire. found pret4lllts for going to
war. 'and robbed her neighbours of terri'tory. She was , be~c.n\lng 110 IItropg IU to
be a menace not only to other tantlnental
n.ltions, but to ourselves. She did, In f_ct.
menace them from time to time when III..
putes arose. and ftn.uy
cballeopd
thell1 lind u5' to war in 191'. when ' IIhe
hOl\ed to ea~ch us unprepared. ince then.
she has carried on the war in 8. bruialj 8JId
barbarous fashion . Are we to condon" the
horrors of Louvain. an~ the outrages and
war on defenceles wo~en and Chll~n,
the Lusitanla ma8sacres; the war on the
civilian population of the EMt Coast and
London. wbieh Is going on to-d8oY'
