EXTRACTED TEXT FROM PAGE:
this University of Illinois, an imperative duty is manifest* For patriotic reasons, if not for reasons of protecting personal property rights and property values, it is the duty of the coming generation to accept the responsibilities which soon shall be theirs by inheritance, and transmit them on to posterity in a more acceptable form. And in offering you the armor of fact and the sword of truth, I feel a thrill of hope and a sense of pride in bidding you godspeed on the field of battle, for the conflict is none the less real, the cause none the less just, and the victory none the less glorious because it is intellectual.
