ancient traditions of America? Has
any better plan been proposed than
this program that we now place be-
fore the country? In it there is no
pride of opinion. 1t represents the
best professional and expert Judgment
of the country But / am not so much
interested in programs as l am in safe
guarding at every cost the good faith
and honor of the country. If men differ
with in this vital matter, l shall
ask them to make it clear how far and
in what way they are interested in
making the permanent interests of the
country safe against disturbance.
In the fulfillment of the program I
propose l shall ask for the hearty sup
port of the country. of the rank and
file of America, of men of all shades
of political opinion. For my position in
this important matter is different from
that of the private individual who is
free to speak his own thoughts and to
risk his own opinions in this matter.
We are here dealing with things that
are vital to the life of America itself.
In doing this l have tried to purge my
heart of all personal and selfish mo-
tives. For the time being / speak

We're l not to speak in terms of the
deepest solemnity of the urgency and
necessity of preparing ourselves to
guard and protect the rights and privi-
legeS of our people, our sacred heri-
tage of the fathers who struggled to
make us an independent nation.
The only thing within our own Dor
in recent months has been that voices
have been raised in America processing
to be the voices of Americans which
We're not indeed and in truth American,
but which spoke alien sympathies,
which came from men who loved other
countries better than they loved Amer
lea, men who were partisans of other
causes than that of America and had
forgotten that their chief and only al
legiance was to the great government
under which they live. These voices
have not been many, but they have
been very loud and very clamorous
They have proceeded from few who
were bitter and who We're grievously
miSled. America has not opened its
doors in vain to men and women out
of other nations. The vast majority
of those who have come to take auvan-
tage of her hospitality have united
their spirits with hers as well as their
fortunes. These men who speak alien
sympathies are not their spokesman
but are the spokesman of small groups
whom it is high time that the nation
should call to a reckoning. The chief
thing necessary in America in order
that she should let all the world know
that she is prepared to maintain her
own great position is that the real
voice of the nation should sound forth

in the deep unison of common, I'M

chief of all. we should have a definite
policy of development, not made from
year to year, but looking well into
the future and planning for a definite
consummation- We can and should
profit in all that we do by the expert

obvious to US by the military and
naval events of the actual present 1t
is not merely matter of building
battleshlps and cruisers and subma-

sure that we shall have the ADEQUATE

the problem of what I may call the
mobilization of the resources of the
nation at the proper time if it should
ever be necessary to mobilize them
for national defense. We shall study
efficiency and adequate equipment as
carefully as we shall study the num-
Der and size of our ships, and l be-

the nation has the munitions and sup
plies with which to equip them without
delay should it be necessary to call
them into action. We wish to supply
them with the training they need, and
we think We can do so without caillns
them at any time too long away from
their civilian pursuits.
1t is with this idea, with this con-
ception, in mind that the plans nave
been made which it will be my priv
ilege to lay before the Congress at its
next session. That plan calls for only
such an increase in the regular army
of the United States as experience mas
proved to be required for the perform
ance of the necessary duties OF the
army in the Philippines. in Hawaii. in
Porto Rico. upon the borders OF the
United States, at the coast fortlnca-
lions, and at the military posts of the
interior. For the rest it calls for the
training within the next three years OF
a force of 100000 citizen soldiers to
be raised in annual contingents of
$4,000, who would be asked to enlist
for three years with the colors ana
three years on furlough, but who dur
ing their three years of enlistment
with the colors would not be organized
as standing force, but would be eX-
pected merely to undergo intensive
training for a very brief Period of each
year. Their training would take place
in immediate association with the or

about it, neither would it exact of the

in any one year from their civilian
pursuits.
And none of this would be done in
such a way as in the slightest degree to
supersede or subordinate our present
seTviceable and efficient National Guard.
on the contrary. the National Guard
itself would be used as a part of the
instrumentality by which training
would be given the citizens who en-
listed under the new conditions, and |
should hope and expect that the legis-
lation by which all this would be &C
complished would put the National
Guard itself upon a better and more
permanent footing than 1t has ever
been before, giving it not only the
recognition which it deserves, but a
more definite support from the national

nection with the military organization

No Cause for Panic.

There is no need for the country to
feel panic-stricken, the President de-
clared, because it stands in friendly
relations with the world" He spoke
of the United States as "a nation too
big and generous to be exacting, but
yet coura geous enough to defend it's
rights and the liberties of its people
wherever assailed or involved"
Outlining the defense program, the
President said it included an increase
in the standing army, the training
within the next three years of 100000
citizen soldiers, to be raised in annual
forces of 133, 900 and the strengthening
of the National Guard. He laid par
ticular emphasis on the need of ample
equipment.
The President declared that the navy
already is a very great and efficient
force" but that in order to bring it to
a point of extraordinary force and eff
ficiency" definite policy must be
adopted and FASTENED and an adequate
supply of men and equipment provided
In addition to speaking on national
defense. the President attacked men
who love other countries better than
America" and men who stir up re-
ligious and sectarian antagonism. He
declared that such men should be
called to Il reckoning

Mr.. POSTMASTER and Gentlemen:
1 warmly felcitate the club upon
the completion of fifty years of sue
cessful and interesting life. Club life
may be made to mean a great deal to
those who know how to use it. / have
no doubt that to great many of you
has come genuine stimulation in the
association of this place and that as
the years have multiplied you have
seen more and more the useful ends
which may be served by organizations
of this sort.
But l have not come to speak whoilS
of that, for there are others Of your
own members who can speak OF the
club with a knowledge and an intelli-
gence which no one can have VINO mas
not been intimately associated with IT.
Men band themselves together Tor the
sake of the association, no doubt, but
also for something greater and deeper
than that-because they are conscious
of common interests lying outside their
business occupations, because they are
members of the same community ana
in frequent intercourse find mutual
stimula ton and a real maximum OF
vitality and power. l shall assume
that here around the dinner table on
this memorial occasion our talk should
properly turn to the wide and common
interests which are most in our
thoughts, whether they be the interests
of the community or of the nation.
A year and a half ago our thought
would have been almost altogether OF
great domestic questions. They are
many and of vital consequence. we
must and shall address ourselves to
their solution with diligence. hrmness
and self-possession, Notwithstanding
we find ourselves in the midst of
world disturbed by great disaster ana
ablaze with terrible war; but our
thought is now inevitably OF new
things about which formerly we gave
ourselves little concern. We are
thinking now chiefly of our relations
with the rest of the world-not our
commercial relations-about those we
have thought and planned always-but
about our political relations, our duties
as an Individual and Independent force
in the world to ourselves, our nelSh-
borS anil the world itself.
