As many of you may know, I gave a speech just last week in which I outlined my views in regard to the Treaty of Versailles and certain foreign relations. Here is a quote from my own speech, "On the League of Nations", to reiterate my fair judgement.
"The United States is the world's best hope, but if you fetter her in the interests and quarrels of other nations, if you tangle her in the intrigues of Europe, you will destroy her power for good and endanger her very existence . . . Strong, generous, and confident, she has nobly served mankind. Beware how you trifle with your marvellous inheritance, this great land of ordered liberty, for if we stumble and fall freedom and civilization everywhere will go down in ruin."
