the President said in part:
I have recently in reading book. been i'm
mensely struck by the thought developed in Ii
speaking OF freedom and OF the fact that free

a sense OF responsibility and he used a phrase
somewhat ,ike this: That among all peoples
there must be a restraint; II there fs re-

Therefore there must be restraint free

external restraint, and the permanence OF our
freedom a people and OF our liberty depends
upon the way in which we shall exercise that
self-restTaint
There must be more than good laws TO make
a good people. A whose morality is ex-
pressed merely in he infringement of the
law is a pretty poor creature. Unless our av-
erage citizenship is based upon a good deal

should produce. So far from liberty and the
responsibilities OF self government being
things which come easily and to any people
they are peculiarly things that come only to
the most highly developed people capable not
only OF mastering others but OF mastering
themselves and who achieve real self.

Will Be Sent to the Far
East to Attack the
Japanese.
Russia Hopes to Cripple
the Foe, Even at Great
Sacrifice.

PARIS, April THE Russian naval
plan for retrieving the reverses at Port
Arthur and Chemulpo has been com
municated to one of the embassies
through official channels having access
to the highest naval authorities at St.
Petersburg. The plan is explained as
follows:
Russia recognizes that Japan now
has preponderating naval strength in
the Far East. Therefore 1t is essential
to reverse the present Japanese pre-
ponderance This will be attempted
by two distinct moves:
First, urgent efforts will be made to
have a naval concentration at Port
Arthur, the Baltic, Red Sea and vlad-
ivostok fleets Joining Vice Admiral
Makaroffs command If possible, and
thus giving the combined fleets pre-
popderance over Vice Admiral Togo's
Second, it is foreseen that it will be
difficult and probably impossible to
effect this concentration, as Admiral
Togo may intercept the Baltic fleet be-
fore it's arrival at Port Arthur. In
that event the Baltic fleet which is
comparatively small, will attempt the
perilous task of engaging the large
Japanese HSet III tAe Hope VI uiSd dpiiuS
sonie of the japanese ships and thus
reducing the Japanese effectiveness.
According TO the Russian calculations
the Baltic fleet may suffer annihilation
in such an unequal combat, but 1t will
have served a valua BILE end If 1t Is
able to cripple sufficient number of
Japanese ships to reduce Admiral
Togo's naval strength below that Of
Admiral Makaroff.
The foregoing information is not part
of current speculative report, but comes
from creditable official sources, as be-
ing the determined Russian plan The
authorities in Washington will receive
similar information shortly.

BERLIN. April THE reports of

tensible vengeance against a young
