Public Opinion and preparednes.

T see that some of the farmers unions are adopting resolutions against President Wilson's national defense programme, but believe that when the farmers have time to think it over. they will join with the majority of patriotic Americans and say the administration is right" said w. w. Cramer of Baltimore.
 "A few demagogues and some men who are not demagogues, but who have a nar- row vision and are poorly informed, op- pose any increase in army or navy. But the United States is woefully unprepared. It does take an expert to understand that; and viewing the situation as it is, 1t is false economy to say the least not to get ready for what may happen some day an attack by European foe.
 T would rather trust to the judgment of statesmen like President Wilson and Secretary of War Garrison any time than the judgment of men of the Bryan and C.aud Kitchin type.'

 the President.

New York. = President Wilson de- siyered an add1 css on the Amerfcau flag and the protection it carries for Americans, at a luncheon given here in his honor by the New York citizens committee for the rece otion of the At Iantic fleet
 When the president arose to speak, soon after reI viewing the parade of sailors and marines from the fleet, he was enthusiastically cheered. Five hundred army and navy officers and other guests jumped to their feet and applauded. All the officers were in full dress uniform. Alton B. Parker, Jacob Schiff, Joseph H. Choate, August Belmont and many other prominent New Workers were among those pres ent. Acting Mayor George McAneny introduced the president.
 The president declared the luncheon was not the occasion at which it was wise for him to make an extended ad- dress. He said he had always had deep interest in the navy.
 Tt is right" he said, that America should have q great navy to express it's character"
 more and more efficient.
 Secretary Daniels was warmly prais- ed by the president. Under him. the president said. the navy had become
