PRESIDENT
WILSONS
WORDS
(a <a *a
There is one choice we
cannot make, we are in
capable of making—we
will not choose the path of
submission and suffer the
most sacred rights of our
nation and our people to
be ignored or violated.
We are glad . . . to
fight for the ultimate peace
of the world and for the
liberation of its peoples,
the German peoples in
eluded.
The world must be safe for democracy.
A steadfast concert for peace can never be main*
tained except by a partnership of democratic nations.
No autocratic government could be trusted to keep
faith within it or observe its covenants.
But the right is more precious than peace, and we
shall fight for the things which we have always car
ried nearest our hearts—for democracy, for the right
of those who submit to authority to have a voice in
their own governments, for the rights and liberties of
small nations, for a universal dominion of right by
such a concert of free peoples as shall bring peace and
safety to all nations and make the world itself at last
free.
To such a task we can dedicate our lives and our
fortunes, everything that we are and everything that
we have, with the pride of those who know that the
day has come when America ii privileged to spend
her blood and her might for the principles that gave
her birth and happiness and the peace which she has
treasured. God helping her, she can do no other.
