This article presents a report of a speech by Prince Maximilian of Baden. On the occasion of the centennial celebration of the Constitution of Baden, an address to a Grand Duke was pronounced by Prince Maximilian of Baden, president of the Chamber. He spoke in praise of the statesmanlike thought and courage which stood behind the great act of faith of 1818 and withstood anxious warnings of those who were unwilling to risk the leap in the dark. The Grand Duke, who issued the Constitution, and his Government recognized that wounds of the long and terrible war could be closed only if healing energies of the people themselves could be successfully stimulated through a strong and upright political life.
