FAITH IN FREEDOM
DECLARED BY PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT AT TOMB OF UNKNOWN SOLDIER. NO REVERSION TO ANCIENT SLAVERY. (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) (Received This Day, 9 a.m.) WASHINGTON. November 11. President Roosevelt, after placing a wreath at the tomb of the Unknown Soldier at the Arlington National Cemetery, declared: “I for one do not believe that the era of Democracy can or will be snuffed out in our lifetime. I do not believe that mere force will be successful. I do not believe that the world can revert either to a modern form of ancient slavery or to controls vested in modern emperors, modern dictators or modern oligarchs. The very people under their - iron heels will rebel.”
