The Merchant Marine.

The President told Congress that
proposals would be made during the
coming session for the purchase Or
construction of ships to be owned and
directed by the government. The
measure, he said, would be similar TO
that submitted to the last Congress,
but modified in some essential par
ticulars.
In outlining the financial condition
of the government, the President fol-
lowed closely the statement recently
given out by Secretary McAdoo. He
said that the additional revenue re-
quired to carry out the program of
military and naval preparation would
be S93,S00,0 900 for the fiscal year
1917; that if the present taxes were
continued throughout this year and
the next there would be a balance in
the treasury of about $76,500,000 at
| the end of the present fiscal year and
deficit at the end of the next year
of some $112,000,000, reckoning in
$62,000,000 for deficiency appropria-
tons.
Proposing that the new bills should
be paid by internal taxation, the
President suggested that by lowering
the present limits of income exemp-
ton and the figure at which the sur
tax is imposed, and by increasing step
by step throughout the present gradu-
alton, the surtax itself, income taxes
las at present apportioned would yield
sums sufficient to balance the books
of the treasury at the end of the fs-
cal year 1917 without anywhere MAX
ing the burden unreasonably heavy.
He added that there were many ad-
ditional sources of resenue which just
" could be resorted to without hamp-
ering the, industries of the country
or putting any too great charge upon
individual expenditure. He estimated
tnal q one percent tax per gallon or
gasoline and naptha would yield s1e,-

The President said that in order to

chant marine.

Cooperative Friends.
The moral is" continued
the President, that the states
of America are not hostile RI
walls but cooperative friends,
and that their growing sense
or community interest, alike
in matters political and in mat
tiers economic, is likely to give
them new significance as fac
tors in international affairs and
in the political history of the
world. 1t presents them as in
a very deep and true sense a
unit in world affairs, spiritual
partners, standing together

thies and common ideals.

defense.
The passion Of the Ameri-
can people, the President de-
clared, was for peace; that
conquest and dominion was
not in their reckoning nor
agreeable to their principles.
But just because we de-
mand unmolested develop
ment and the undisturbed gov
eminent of our own lives up
on our own principles Of right |
and liberty" he said, we re-
sent, from whatever quarter it |
may come, the aggression we
ourselves will not practice. |
We insist upon security in
prosecuting our self-chosen
lines of national development. |
We do more than that. Wei
demand it also for Others.
What War Is.
War, the President declared, was
regarded by the United States mere |
ly as a means of asserting the rights |
of a people against aggression, and /
that I'VE are as fiercely jealous of CO.
ercive or dictatorial power within our
own nation as from aggression from
without" He said the nation would |
not maintain a standing army except
for uses which are as necessary 1nf
times of peace as in times of war, but |
that the country did believe, in a |
body of free citizens ready and suf- |
ficient to take care of themselves and |
of the government.
But war has never been mere |
matter of men and arms" he contin- |
ued. 1T is a thing of disciplined
= ght. If our citizens are ever TO

mons, they must know how modern
fighting is done, and what to do when |

country's own borders.

States, | blush to admit" he declared,
born under other flags but welcomed
under our generous naturalization
.cws TO the full freedom and oppor-
tunity of American, who have poured
the poison of disloyalty into the very
arteries of our national life; who
have sought to bring the authority
and good name of our government in
to contempt, to destroy our industries
wherever they thought it effective for
their vindictive purposes. TO strike
al them and to debase our policies TO
the uses of foreign intrigue"
No federal laws exist to meet this
situation. said Mr.. Wilson, because
such thing would have seemed in
credible in the past. Such creatures
of passion, disloyalty and anarchy"
he added, must be crushed out. They
are not many but they are infinitely
malignment and the hand of our pow
er should close over them at once"
Regarding the railroads, the Pres
ident said there had been reason to
fear that they could not cope much
longer with the transportation prob
lem, and suggested it would be wise
to provide for a commission of in
quiry to ascertain whether the laws
as at present framed and administer
ed were as serviceable as they might
be in the solution of the problem. He
said that the regulation of the rail
roads by federal commission has had
admirable results and that the ques-
ton was whether there was anything
else to be done to better the cOndi-
tons under which the railroads are
operating.

BERLIN (via London. Aug. s.-Accord-
ing 70 press dispatches from Warsaw now
reaching Berlin. the Polish capital fell az
the result of a midnight storm Of shot
and shell against the forts on the south
side of the city.
A division of Prussian reservists had
the honor Of making the first breach in
the fortress line and they entered the city
a o'clock in the morning of August 8.
These troops had been heavily engaged
for two days and two nights with the
forts which. though deprived Of heavy
artillery, were capable OF offering highly
effective resistance 10 the infantry.
The forts in Warsaw had been destroyed
last winter when Field Marshal won Hin
denburg's drive from the west threatened
the Russian lines along the Vistula and
when the evacuation OF the city seemed
imminent. They were later rebuilt as
supporting points for infantry ana were
surrounded with wire entanglements, also
bitches and extensive fields OF buried
mines to explode under the feet OF storm
ing columns
The fall of the west front of the fortress
occurred almost simultaneously with the
capture Of the southern forts Mixed
divisions OF Saxon. Bavarian and Wurt-
temburgian troops carried the western
forts so that all four German Kingdoms
were represented In the victory.
The troops attacking from the west had
at times to do severe fighting In working
their way within stOrming distance OF the
forts The Russians resisted stubbornly
and retired under the cover Of the night.
