cerrlng), That, it being a duty
peculiarly incumbent In a time
of war humbly and devoutly to
acknowledge our dependence on
Almighty God and to implore
His aid and protection, the Pres
ident of the United States be and
is hereby respectfully requested
to recommend a dav of public
humiliation, prayer and fasting,
to be observed by the people of
the United States with religious
solemnity, and the offering of
fervent supplications to Al
mighty God for the safety and
welfare of our cause, His bless
ings on our arms and a speedy
restoration of an honorable and
lasting peace to the nations of
the earth."
And whereas, it has always
been, the reverent habit of the
people of the United States to
turn in humble appeal to Al
mighty God for His guidance in
the affairs of their common life;
Now, therefore, I, Woodrow
Wilson, President of the United
States of America, do hereby pro
claim Thursday, the 30th day of
May, a day already freighted
with sacred and stimulating
memories, a day of public hu
humlliatlon, prayer and fasting,
and do exhort my fellow-citizens
of all faiths and creeds to as
semble on that day in their sev
eral places of worship and there,
as well as In their homes, to
pray Almighty God that he may,
forgive our sins and shortcom
ings as a people and purify our
hearts to see and love the truth,
to accept and defend all things
that are Just and right, and to
purpose only those righteous
acts and Judgments which are
in conformity with his will.
Beseeching Him that He will
give victory to our armies as
they light for freedom, wisdom
to those who take counsel on
our behalf in these days of dark
struggle and perplexity, and
steadfastness to our people to
make sacrifice to the utmost In
support of what is Just and true,
bringing us at last the peace in
which men's heart's can be at
rest because It Is founded upon
mercy, Justice and good Will.
