ING HE PRESENT ShiSIS.

quotation from he presidents re-
marks to the Washington corresponds
ents:
1T is extremely necessary, it is
manifestly necessary. IN the present
state of affairs on the other side of me
water, that you should be extremely
careful not to add in any way to the
excitement. OF course. the European
world is in highly excited state of
mind, but the excitement ought not
to spread to the United States. So far
as we are concerned thece is no cause
for excitement. There is great incon-
venience for the time being in the
money market and in our exchanges
and temporarily in the handling of our
crops. but America is absolutely pre-
pared to meet the financial situation
and to straighten everything out with
out any material difficulty. The only
thing that can possible prevent it is
unreasonable apprehension and excite
ment.
United States Conditions Sound.
IF might make a suggestion to you
give currency to any unverified rumor
or to anything that would tend to
create or add to excitement. 1 think
that you will agree that we must act
together as Americans in seeing tha.
America does not suffer any unneces-
sary distress from what is going on in
the world at large. The situation In
the world is perhaps the greatest in its
~, r..
times but it need not affect the United
States unfavorably in the long run.
Not that the United States has any
thing to take advantage of but her
own position is sound and she owes it
to mankind to remain IN such condi-
ton and in such state of mind that
she can help the rest of the world.
No Cause For Alarm.
Il want to have the pride of feeling
that America, if nobody else, has her
self-possession and stands ready with
calmness of thought and steadiness of
purpose to help the rest IF the world,
and we can do it and reap a good per-
manent glory out of doing it, provided
we all cooperate to SEQ that nobody
loses his head. ! know from my con-
ferences with the secretary Of the
treasury, who is in very close touch
with the financial situation thruout
the country. that there's no cause for
alarm There is cause fo' getting busy
and doing The thing in the right way,
but there is no element of unsoundness
and there is no cause for alarm. The
