EXTRACTS FROM PRESIDENTS
ADDRESS TO CONGRESS.

Our thoughts are now more of the
future than of the past. While we
have worked at our tasks of peace
the circumstances of the whole age
have been altered by war. What we
have done for our own land and our
own people we did with the best that
was in us, whether of character or of
intelligence, with sober enthusiasm
and confidence in the principles up
on which we were acting which sus-
tanned us at every step of the difficult
undertaking; but it is done. 1t has
passed from our hands. 1t is now an
established part of the legislation of
the country. Its usefulness, its ef-
fects will disclose themselves in ex-
perience. What chiefly strikes us
now, as we look about us during these
days of year which will be forever
memorable in the history OF the
world, is that we face new tasks, have
been facing them these six months,
must face them in the months to

feeling, like men who have forgotten
everything but a common duty and
the fact that we are representatives
of a great people whose thought is
to herself and to all mankind in such
circumstances as these upon which
we look amazed and anxious.
War has interrupted the means of
trade not only but also the processes
of production. In Europe it is des-
froying men and resources wholesale
and upon a scale unprecedented and
appalling. There is reason to fear
that the time is near, If it be not al
ready at hand, when several of the
countries of Europe will find it diff
cult to do for their people what they
have hitherto been always able to
do-many essential and fundamental
things. At any rate, they will need
our help and our manifold services
as they have never needed them be-
fore; and we should be ready, more
fit and ready than we have ever been
To speak plainly, we have grossly
erred in the way in which we have
stunted and hindered the develop
ment of our merchant marine. And
now, when we need ships, we have
not got them. We have year aftei

sion, the best policy to pursue will
