L - to-th- ' in Ameri- can Legion, made public Thursday, expressed hope that the future would bring less need for further national aacrfices. The message follows: Americans have' never been much given to the establishment of holidays and fete days. Perhaps our national life has been so short, and entirely within so matter-of-faand practical a period of the worlds history, that we have been little moved by the sentiments that such occasions inspire. Yet I think-mnation has ever established a national day of consecration that represented a more lofty and ennobling sentiment than does our national Memorial day. 'To its oberservahee we have brought ther full measure of sincere reverence and gratitude that a great people is ever to entertain for those who have made the great sacrifice in its behalf. , Memorial, day marks our recognition of those who, from our national beginnings, have deserved the most that the nation could give of gratitude and appreciation. It reminds us that in every generation, from Lexington to the Argonne, our valorous sons have well deserved the highest tribute that a nation, fortified, defended, preserved, could give to them. Whenever the demand has- come, and wherever it may havs called ithe sons of our proud land, it has glways been answered. Though we have never been a;, militant or yar-- , jpeopl; there has been 'ho' time when Americans did not rise to the full measure of the Tequirment which national honor and national safety imposed upon them. When national safety was the cause, the response was alWhen ways insistent and decisive. civilization summoned and our sons were called to other seas and soils, we saw the same promptness, the same real, the same devotion. On this Memorial day of 1921, we stand, I trust, very close to peace achieved, to safety insured. May it be our common aim and purpose that, In the coming years, our nations aim and policy shall be directed to make certain that there shall be at least need for further sacrifices, greatest guarantees of the stability, the permanence and the inspiring character of those institutions of liberty to which our nation has been dedicated. , A President Harding, a Memorial day message to the though the general political situation is somewhat obscure, it is said in press and official advices.
