(From Chicago Herald)
Sit tight! Don't rock the boat
That's the watchword today. That's
the first duty of every American at
this moment. That's what this coun-
try needs to keep it straight and safe
and true to its course-absolutely all
it needs.
Business conditions are sound. We
have one of the greatest grain crops
in history. Its value has already
greatly advanced. We have a sound
financial system, backed by the great
est store of gold in the world. Our
banks are solid, safe. There is moth
ing the matter with the United States.
War will mean an unprecedented
demand for supplies. Experts declare
American business will feel a great
impetus. While other nations destroy,
this country will produce. While 9TH
er nations are armed camps, this coun-
try will be farm, a factory, forge.
Trade extension is predicted in all d.
rections. The immediate future is
plain.
The national administration is act
ing wisely, promptly. The sum of
$5O0,OOO,OOO is available, under the
Aldrich-Vreeland act, for an emergen-
cy. The organization of the reserve
board will soon be complete. This
will enable us to deal more effectively
with the outflow of gold. Plans are
perfecting to permit American registry
of foreign vessels. This will protect
and develop our commerce.
We are preparing to maintain strict
neutrality. Questions may arise with
foreign nations as to what constitutes
contraband. Such questions cannot
conceivably involve us in difficulties.
They will be settled by the ordinary
processes. The general principles of
neutrality and neutral commerce are
plain. The United States will adhere
to them Friendly inter-
