The following communication, ad
dressed to "all divisional and local
chairmen, division of Four Minute
Men of Alaska." was read at the
Fourth of July celebration by Kev.
; K IV Ziegler
"Gentlemen; I am today in receipt
of the* following telegram from Di
rector Blair
"‘President Wilson has asked the
Kour Minute Men to present tin* at
tached message* for him to audiences
on the* Fourth of July. Please have
message* forwarder! to all Alaska or
ganizations :
.You are* met. my fellow-citizens,
to commemorate* tin* signing of the
Declaration of Independence*, which
markc l the* awakening of a new spiri*
»*i * In* lives .) nations: since* the birth
of our republic we have* see*n the
spirit grow We* have heard the de
mand and watched the* struggle* for
self-government spread triumphant
among many people-. We* have come
to regard tin* right to political liberty
las the common right of human kind.
Year after year within the security
of our borders we* have* continued to
rejoice in the- peaceful increase of
freedom and democracy throughout
the world, and ye»t now suddenly we
are* confronted with a menace which
endangers everything that we have
won and everything the world has
won in all Its old insolence. With all
its ancient cruelty and injustice, mill*
■ tarv autocracy has again armed itself
against the pacific hopes of men Hav
I ing suppressed self-government among
its own people by an organization
maintained in part by falsehood and
treachery, it has set out to Impose its
will upon neighbors and upon us. One
by one it has compelled every civilized
t nation in the world either to forego
Its aspirations or to declare war in
their defense. We find ourselves
lighting again for our national exist
ence. We are face to face with the
necessity of asserting anew the fun
damental right of free men to make
their own laws and choose their own
allegiance or else permit humanity to
become the victim of a ruthless ambi
tion that is determined to destroy
what it cannot master Against Its
threat the liberty-loving people of
the world have arisen and allied them
i selves. Xo fear has deterred them
[and no bribe of material well being
! has held them hack. They have made
[sacrifices such as the world has never
known before, and their resistance in
[ the face of deatli and suffering has
l[ proved that the aim which animated
the German effort can Hover hope to
rule the spirit of mankind against the
i horror of military conquest, against
the emptiness of living In mere bodily
[contentment, against the resolution of
becoming part of a state that knows
I [ neither truth nor honor The world
has so revolted that even people long
| dominated and suppressed by force
j have now begun to stir and arm them
j selves. Centuries of subjugation have
| not destroyed the racial aspiration of
| the many distinct peoples of eastern
j Europe, nor have they accepted the
sordid ideas of their political and j
| military masters They have sur ,
vived the slow persecutions of peace
as well as the agonies of war and now
demand recognition for their just!
claims lo autonomy and self-govern
mont. Representatives of these races
are with you today, voicing their Icy
ally ii» our ideals and ottering their
services in the common nun1 I ask
you. fellow citizens, to unite with
•hem in making this our Independence
day ihe first that shall lie consecrated
to a Iinduration of Independence for
all the peoples of the world"
I his is a personal message to us '
from the President of the Rutted
Stales, who sends it directly to all
l our Minute Men Its importance as
a puhlii statement made by tile
world's leading statesman is self evi
dent, and we should endeavor to live
up lo tin* oeea shm, and give it spe
cial attention on our Independence
day. Yours sincerely.
