Washington, Dec. 9.-President VIII.
son departed from the prepared text
of his annual address to congress,
which was devoted principally to an
swering those who contend the Unit
ed States is unprepared for national
defense, to give notice to the business
world that the legislative program of
his administration, as it affects regu-
lation of business, is practically COM
pleted. He said it has resulted in a
clear road for business to travel to
''unclouded success"
Honest business men, the president
declared, need have nothing to fear
in treading the way outlined in the
trust and currency bills. While the
president dwelt briefly on the subject
his words were interpreted as an as
surance that no further important
business legislation was contemplated.
In brief the presidents message
makes the following recommends
tions:
Enactment of law to enable the
government to purchase merchant
ships and operate them.
Necessity. for exercise Of strictest
economy In the administration of gov.
erment.
Enactment Of measure to provide
means for ultimate independence OF
Philippines.
Favors seamen's pill.
Enactment Of pending .seamen's bill
for greater protection for American
seamen and to insure, greater safety
Of vessels at sea.
Enactment of law making provi.
sion for thorough survey of the coast
of Alaska SO as to remove danger to
navigation.
Enactment of legislation for the bet.
ter conservation of natural resources
of country.
The presidents remarks in full with
relation to business legislation were
as follows:
"Our program Of legislation with
regard to the regulation of business
is now virtually complete. 1t has been
put forth as we intended as whole
and leaves no conjecture as to what
is to follow. The road at last lies
clear and firm before business. It is
a road which it can travel without
fear or embarrassment. It is the road
to ungrudged, unclouded success. In
It every honest man, every man who
believes that the public interest is
part of his own interest, may walk
with perfect confidence"
