Interpreted bis remarks - as moaning
that whllo (the United States would
remain at pence It would seek to eon
vines Qermany of the Injustice to man
kind of the tragedy. . '
"America," said the President,
"must have the consciousness that on
all aides It touches elbows and touches
hearts with all the nations of man

be a special example And H must' be

not need, to convince others by fores
yiat It is right."
These remarks precipitated a tu
mult of applause and patriotic enthu
siasm 'attended by waving of thous
ands of small American Mags. The
president, made no direct reference
to the Lusitania tragedy, but the
audience did not hesitate to read the
application of his statement
Introduced By Blankenburg. "
Introduced by Mayor Blankenburg,
ho spoks in a distinctly German ac
cent, a welcome and an appeal for a
ingle allegiance to the United States,
the President carried forward the
Idea of the welding of foreign blood
in the make-up of America by point
ing out the true goal -of right Ameri
can cttlsensbip to be a loyalty not to
tbe country of one's birth but to the
land nf one's adoption.
'Whtls you bring." he said, "all
countries with you, you corns with a
" purpose of leaving " air' other coun
tries behind yea bringing what is
best of their spirit, but not looking
, over your shoulder or seeking to per
petuate what you leave in them. I
crntalanly , would not be one - who
would suggest that a. man ceases to

. Humanity First.
v "My advice to you is to think, first
not only of America but to thinfl first
of humanity, and you do not love hu
manity if yeu seek to divide humanity
" into jealous camps."
