18 T. R. ASKS FOR UNITY IN WAR Former President Declares U. S. Is Miracle of Inefficiency Pittsburgh, July 2 7.—Burning with patriotism, filled with devotion to America, advocating universal obli gatory service, urging abstinence from alcohol and deploring the fact that America should be saved by the arms of other nations when it could easily protect itself, Colonel Roose velt delivered an address to a which packed Grant street, between Diamond street and Fifth avenue yesterday. During the day he visited two local armories and addressed the directors of the Chamber of Com merce and participated in the gigan tic parade of the Loyal Order of Moose in the evening. The big event of the former Pres ident's visit, the address delivered at the courthouse, attracted the at tention of visiting M,oose and thou sands of downtown workers, who not alone filled the street, but occupied the adjoiing office buildings for sev eral stories. Old-time Applause For "Teddy" When Colonel Roosevelt stepped on the platform the crowd broke into thunderous applause which last ed several minutes. His address last ed one hour and twenty-five min utes and replete with the spectacu lar. Despite the heavy street car and vehicular traffic the Colonel seemed to be perfectly content. Interrupted frequently by applause he beamed on the wide expanse of faces as he drove home point after point with forceful gestures and the proverbial "pep." With face at times contorted nnd fists clenched the Colonel fre quently stirred the immense crowd into thunderous applause as he drove home a pQint. He said in part: "We have not enough rifles for our men. We are painfully short in equipment. We have not yet begun to assemble the draft army, the first elementary officers' training camps have not been finished, the National Guard has only just begun to mob ilize. "We have put a fragment of our fine little regular army into France, and, as it is composed almost ex clusively of infantry without artil lery, it would be helpless against any well-equipped enemy were it not for our allies. "This is the sum total of the ac tivities of a nation of 100,000,000 people, and in possession of incal culable wealth and boundless re sources, during the six month fol lowing its entry (after two and one half years' warning) into the great est war in history. Miracle of Inefficiency "The simple truth is that, rela tively to the other great nations of the world, we have in this war ex hibited ourselves a miracle of in efficiency; and we shall always be inefficient during the first vital months of any war until we learn to prepare in advance. "It is this utter unpreparedness •which should convey the real lesson to us of this war. And remember that as yet we as a people, acting through our governmental authori ties, have not taken one step to avert disaster, in the future by introduc ing a periqanent policy of prepared ness. The measures under which we are now acting are temporary make shifts, announced to be such. We have been caught utterly unprepared in a terrible emergency because we did nothing until the emergency ac tually arose and now, our govern ment announces that what we are doing is purely temporary; that we shall stop doing it as soon as the emergency is over, and will then re main equally unprepared for the next emergency. "It is this blind refusal—from the Nation's standpoint 1 can only call it the criminal refusal—to provide for the future that forces every honest and farsighted lover of America to speak. "We cannot afford to count for our safety on anything but our own armed strength; the only way to make our strength effective is to make it ready in advance; and the only way really to make ready in ad vance is to introduce the principle of obligatory universal military training in time of peace for our young men, and universal service in time of war for every man and wom an in the country, in whatever posi tion that man or woman can do most effective work. This as the only democratic system." "At this moment our policy should consist in wholeheartedly bending our every effo.it to win an overwhelming triumph in the war. We are for the time being safe behind the rampart of the British fleet and of the French and British armies. It is galling thus to owe our safety to others; but let us at least bend all our energies to developing our might so that in our turn we may be able to guarantee safety to ourselves and triumph to our allies.

REMEMBER THE DATE AND COME ALONG FRIDAY EVENING, to develop our strength were it not for the protection the Allies give us But they do give it. Therefore we have the opportunity to make use of our gigantic resources. We can. within a year, if only we choose, de velop our strength so that we shall be the deciding factor in the war. If we do this we shall restore our self respect. we shall incalculably benefit our children, we shall win a com manding position and we shall be able to render untold service to our selves and to our Allies. If we do not do this, if we fail to develop and exert our strength to the utmost, if we partly adopt the attitude of the on looker. if we let others do the hard, rough, dangerous fighing work, then we shall have betrayed a sacred trust.

In such case we must when peace comes, stand humbly in the presence of the nations who have really fought. In auch case the world will have been saved, but it will have been saved by England and not by us. In such case all that we can do will be to thank England for having saved the world—and the peace will be England's peace. Only those who do the Job will have a right to the re ward in honor and in power. Only if we do play a leading part in bringing the war to a close can we expect to make the peace in part our peace. I honor England for all that she is do ing; but I wish us to do as well, for ftARJUSBURG !&&&& TELEGRAPH otherwise we shall have no right to be more than a looker-on at Eng land's peace, at the Allies' peace. Only if we do our full duty can we make it a joint peace, a peace in which we rightfully have our full say. on an equalitv with England. France. Rus sia, Italy, if we aren't going to do the job. then I shall be glad to see it done by England and the rest of the Allies. But I am a good Amer ican and therefore I wish to see us do the job ourselves. Rhetoric and boasting won't give us our place in the world. This is the hour of the lighting men ar.d of the other men and the women who stand back of the fighting men and enable them to fight. Prodlgrlouft Work "If we are to hold our proper Place as a great nation there must be prodigious exertions on the part of this republic. We are in this war and we must not make it a half war. The only proper rule is never to fight in a half-hearted way. When peace comes it must be the peace of complete vic tory. In winning this victory we must have played a full part—the part of deeds—the deeds of fighting men. We should instantly strain every nerve to make ready millions of men and an abundance of all the huge and deli cate and formidable and infinitely varied instruments of modern war fare. "We can't achieve our ends by talk —they have got to be achieved by ef- fort. We can't achieve them unless we act together loyally and with all pur hearts, as Americans and noth ing else. We are fighting for human ity, for the right of tach well-behaved nation to Independence and to what ever form of government It desires, and we are fighting for our own hearthstones and for the honor and the welfare of our children and our children's children. We are fighting agHinst a very efficient and powerful and an utterly brutal and unscrupu lous enemy.

Let us in re turn exact from every man the full est performance of duty, the fullest loyalty to our flag and the most reso JULY 27, 1917. lute effort to strve it. Let us face this crisis in the spirit of the men who followed Washington, the men whose service and self-sacrifice culminated in the winter at Valley Forge. Val ley Forge was the tost of the democ racy of the country, the test of dem ocracy under arms, tho trying out of American manhood 140 years ago. In that winter camp of misery and strav atlon our forefathers decided by their own steadfast valor that thev were worthy to win the great prize of free dom. Now it is for us to decide, in the spirit of Washington and his fol lowers, in the spirit of Lincoln and Grant and Lee. that w6 in our turn are worthy to keep and to enjoy the priceless heritage which our fore fathers thus won."

His arrest followed his failure to show a registration card and final admission that he had failed to reg ister. Williams was turned over to Federal authorities.
