Then declaring that it was impossible to be indifferent to the destruction of Freedom across the he said of the danger to our institutions May come slowly or it May come with a Rush and a Shock As it has to the people of the United states in the past few months. This perception of danger has come to us clearly and overwhelmingly and we perceive the peril in a world wide Arena which May become so narrowed that Only the americas would retain the ancient faiths. Some indeed still hold to the now obvious delusion that we of the United states can safely permit the United states to become a Lone land in a world dominated by the philosophy of Force. Helpless Nightmare an Island May be the dream of those who still talk and vote As isolationists. Such an Island represents to me and to the overwhelm ing majority of americans today a helpless Nightmare of a people with out Freedom a people lodged in prison handcuffed hungry and fed through the bars from Day to Day by the contemptuous Unpi tying Mas ters of other continents. It is natural also that we should ask ourselves How we can prevent the building of that prison and the placing of ourselves in the midst of it. Let us not of to proclaim certain truths. Overwhelmingly we As a nation and this applies to All the other american nations Are convinced that military and naval Victory for the gods of Force and hate would endanger the institutions of democracy in the Western that equally therefore the whole of our sympathies lie with those nations which Are giving their life blood in com Bat against those Italy s action of yesterday said or. Roosevelt had been seen by the american people with utmost re Gret and grave he went on to say that More than three months ago he received word from the head of the italian govern ment that its determination to limit the spread of the War had kept Mediterranean Peoples free of the conflict. He replied sympathetically. He said expressing the Hope that such a course would be adhered to by the italian government and saying that if the War spread to the Mediterranean it would be impossible to foretell How far it would go eventually. Offered services later the president continued he offered to submit Italy s desires to France and great Britain and if Italy would stay out of the War to seek from the allies guarantees of the faithful execution of any agree ment reached regarding Italy s de mands. He offered he said to seek or Italy in any future peace con Ference the same authority As if Italy had actually taken part in the War As a but Italy chose to do otherwise. Thus he said she not Only manifested disregard for the rights and Security of other nations but also for the lives of the Peoples of those nations. With that. Or. Roosevelt went on to outline the two courses to be pursued and swiftly approaching Lis conclusion said that in helping the allies and arming the nation we need not and we will not in any Way abandon our continuing Effort to make democracy work within our own he added we still insist on the need for vast improvements in our own social and economic life. But that is a component part of National de Fence or. Roosevelt brushed aside the secrecy surrounding his communications with Premier Mussolini of Italy to relate How the government had tried to swerve Italy away from War. He said he had proposed that if Italy would refrain from going to War. He would be willing to ask assurances from the other Powers concerned that they would execute faithfully any agreement made to effect readjustments desired by Italy. He asserted the chief of the italian government was unwilling to accept the procedure the president said. Too. That he had expressed his administration s willingness to try to co operate with the italian government when the appropriate occasion arose for creation of a More stable world order through the reduction of armaments and through the construction of a More Liberal inter National economic but by choosing to preserve what it terms its Freedom of action and to fulfil what it states Are its promises to Germany or. Roose velt said Italy had manifested Dis regard for the rights and Security of other nations for the lives of the Peoples of those nations which Are directly threatened by this spread of the War and had evidenced an unwillingness to attempt to achieve its aspirations by peaceful Means.
