quoted ns one of the cslls for loyalty,
"That, though we Americans regret tho
necessity of war, there are lertnln funda
mental principles of right and humanity
which every man must feel called upon to
defend, even to the extent of nrmel con
flict, If Intolerable conditions caused by
morally defunct people- nro to bo ended
before the world Is enthrnllcd. Klghtcous In
