In a masterly eulogy of democracy
nd a glowing tribute to the cause for
which America fights. Attorney Frank Cumerford of Chicago, told a large audience at the Klks" flag day exercises in the Hammond Orpheum theatre.-hat within ninety days casualty lists would
appear in the newspapers and by the fall of 1918 the United States would heve 5,000,000 men under arms and in the field. '
ine seriousness of the war and the necessity of sacrifice by the people at well as the boys In khaki were emphasised by the speaker in no uncertain terms. "Germany is not licked," Attorney Cumerford said: "It has practically obtained a separate peace with Russia, a country that annually raises 5,000,000 bushels of wheat for .export. It has the lands of Invaded countries under cultivation and by the end of fall will probably be In a better position for food than the allies. Marshal Joffre, the hero of the Marne, said in this country that the man-power of France was practically exhausted. "I would rather died for freedom than to live to be a slave. This is no time for peace talk. The kaiser, the man who fancies himself a Caesar, could drive us from the Atlantic with his submarines. The destiny of free America is at stake. YOU must help. The man who Is a partisan before he is an American is not an American. A person who Is guilty of waste is spilling the nation's blood." In the introductory remarks, Attorney Cumerford told how the United States had established with its war of 1S12 ,the international law of the right of neutrals to traverse the seas in the recognized routes of commerce, j and praised the Monroe doctrine. He spoke of the uspreme court decision declaring labor not a commodity and the decision of the president not to declare war on impoverished Mexico.. He praised the government for its other unselfish policies such as those in 'force with regard to Its territorie and the throwing open the Panama canal to the world without toll or subsidy. In contrast he showed the vicious policies' of Germany, her Invasion of Belgium, and the ruthless warfare in the air and in the seas. He termed this .form of warfare "International Murder." "It is true," he stated, "that England violated some of our rights, and took boats to prize court. But her mistakes were violation of property rights and they can be adjudicated. The statue quo can be maintained." . In closing Cumerford stated: "I side
with the wisdom of the greatest of j
Americans who said, o nation can long endure half slave end half free. I say 'Xo civilization, can long endure, half slave and half free'."
