DUTY TO ENDEAVOR AS A PRIVATE CITI-
ZEN to promote the end you have IN view BY
MEANS WHICH YOU DO NOT FEEL AT LIB

MI Bryan's strong and definite phrasing can mean
only one thing: that in the crisis at hand he sin
cerey believes that the president and his trusted ad
visers are pungng the country into with Germany
and that he feels impeled to the country from
such tragic consequence If he can do so, by speaking
and writing in favor Of peaceable measures.
It remains to be seen what Mr.. BTyans influence
will be IN the government with himself voluntarily
retired to private status. To most Americans the
thought Of war becomes more hdeous it becomes
more insstent Yet the country is fully prepared TO
enforce by the Of all its resources its Just demands
in the name Of safety and humanity.
The instant acceptance of Mr.. Bryans resignation
under the special circumstances set forth in the para
graphs above quoted from his note indicates that the
president and his advisers have not for themselves
any limit as the Of force should force become
necessary to decide the issue
That the crisis has been precpitated Is partly due
to Mr. Bryans own unfortunate influence and to his
mshandng Of affairs with relation to Mexico and other
foreign problems during MS term The president must
bear the final responsibility but Mr.. Bryan should
not be allowed to shift the whole burden of account
ability merely By slipping out from under at the
ment Of supreme test.
While he has been in the cabinet Mr. Bryan has
been wholly loyal the administration Not breath

He has not allowed personal ambition to between

they have been entirely opposed to him in many mat
