TO SERVE MANKIND
SHE WILL VINDICATE,WHAT SHE PROFESSES.
(Received May 31, 1 p.m.)
WASHINGTON, 30th May.
President Wilson, speaking at the Decoration Day services,, said that with the help of God America would show she was born to serve mankind. America had joined with the other nations to fight for the cause of human liberty. The present ■ struggle was really a strugglefor the defence of American honour and American rights, but it was also a greater struggle—the struggle' of men who love liberty everywhere. There- were times when words seemed empty when compared with actions as great as these. The time had arrived when America would have a chance to vindicate that which she professed.
