So far as our Society is concerned, I am sure I ex­ of any group. To be blunt, any attempt to use the war emergency to fasten upon our pressed its attitude in my letter to the President which was published in the January nation any pet project of political or social groups is nothing more nor less than sabotage, issue of our Magazine, but I cannot help stressing the individual responsibility and and sabotage of the most dangerous character, because it would create distrust and duty of every American, including every member of the Sons of the American Revolu­ Jack of confidence in our leaders when such trust and confidence is so greatly needed. tion, to contribute to that part of the war effort where his contribution will be of the greatest value. Time and place and individual ability must decide that for each one. And speaking of individual responsibility, let me give you the words of a President who led this Country through the terrors of a civil war. Lincoln said: "I will only say that to the salvation of the Union there needs but one single thing-the hearts of a President General. people like yours. When the people rise in mass in behalf of the Union and the liberties of this Country, truly may it be said, 'the gates of hell cannot prevail against them.' In all trying positions in which I shall be placed, and doubtless I shall be placed in many such, my reliance will be upon you and the people of the United States; and I wish you to remember, now and forever, that it is your business, and not mine; that if the Union of these States and the liberties of this people shall be lost, it is but little to any one man of fifty-two years of age, but a great deal to the thirty millions of people who inhabit these United States, and to their posterity in all coming time. It is your business to rise up and preserve the Union and liberty for yourselves, and not for me. I appeal to you again to constantly bear in mind that not with politicians, not with Presidents, not with office-seekers, but with you, is the question: Shall the Union and shall the liberties of this Country be preserved to the latest generation?" Let us never forget for one moment the great responsibility we have for the millions of our young men who are going into the battle. More than ever before they need and must have the very best equipment. For lack of that many thousands of our boys were killed and maimed in the last World War, and it must not happen again. They wiJJ be fighting on the oceans of the world and on many distant shores. Let it never be said that they were not furnished with an abundant supply of the best tools in the world to do their job. Anything or anybody or any group who in any way interferes with that should have short shrift at the hands of America. In fighting what is really a global war coordination of the fighting forces is, of course, necessary. It is equally necessary that the terms and conditions of such coordi­ nation cannot be publicly discussed. But there is apprehension in many quarters that this necessity of wartime conditions may be used as an opportunity to go beyond the military phase and bring about some kind of political union between the United Stale' and Great Britain. You will recognize the scheme of "Union Now". That is something about which there should be no secrecy. It is the pet project of a small group of people and nothing could be more unfair than to take advantage of a nation plunged into war and, with every citizen willing to give all he has and do what­ ever he is told to do to win that war, to use that attitude to slip over any such political Va.
