AMERICA FIRST, LAST
AND ALL THE Time

Washington, Oct. ia demand
upon all Americans, on pain OF ostra-
cism, to be more than neutral regard
ing the European war, to take their
stand for America first, last and all
the time, was voiced by President Will
son in a speech at the celebration of
the twenty-fifth anniversary OF the
founding of the Daughters Of the
American Revolution.
The United States, the president
said, is Ect merely trying to keep out
of trout q. but is trying to preserve
the foundations upon which peace
could be rebuilt.
peace can be rebuilt" he added,
"only upon the ancient and accepted
principles of international law; only
upon those things which remind ma
lions of their duties to each other,
and, deeper than that, of their duties
to mankind and humanity. America
has a great cause which is not con-
fined to the American continent"
Declaring his faith in the loyalty OF
the great body of naturalized citizens
of foreign birth the president said he
believes the impression is too general
that very large number of ese.citi-
zens were without sufficient affec-
ton for the American ideal.
"But am in hurry to have line
up" he explained, "and let the men
who are thinking first of other coun-
tries stand on one side and those who
are for America first, last and all
the time on the other side"
