NO BRISTOL BAY
 RADIO STATIONS NOW.

In a letter referring to the House Joint Memorial No. 12 proposed by O. P. Hubbard, Secretary Josephus Dan iels writes to the office of the Terri torial Secretary that the installation of the Bristol Bay stations requested in the memorial would seriously delay the completion and equipment of the system of naval radio stations design ed for the purpose of national defense. It is believed that for the present no diversion of funds can be considered.
 The letter add: "The Department would be glad, however, to supply the needs of the community in the vicinity of Bristol bay by erecting suitable radio stations should the necessary appropriations be forthcoming "- (Empire.)

TIE PRESIDENTS WISE WORDS


NlfnnNlNh Eagle
Patriotic. impressive and stimulating
were the words President Wilson NpN-
terday addressed "a the members of the
Associated Press ~ thcir annual lun-
cheon. Ills appeal was 10 the American
people, and the purpose of il was "a as
sert and maintain the national attitude
of neutrality, 50 that when the time
arrived for peace tins country might be
able 10 help the bclIigcrents 10 reach
an agreement.
A passage here and there IN the Pre-
sident 5 speech took account Of the par
tisan feeling that runS high among us
at tins time on the issues raised by the
war. He denied that America rs 4 whole
was vocal. I but hc admitted that il
was vocal lin spots When he urged
the exercise of Judgment. restraint and
poise h. did not, We believe. seek 10
admoniSh citizens who deeply sym
pathize with one side or the other
against an honest expression OF opinion.
His object was apparently nothing more
than Ia rc-dcclare the position uf himself
and every official or agent of the United
States Government. a position which
makes the country an impartial spec
tator Of the struggle. ready To offer
mediation but resolved never to med
die.
Between the sentiment Of citizens and
the sentiment Of government there is a
distinction which j. never lost sight Of
by Mr.. Wilson. Iy not interfering with
the sale Of arms and ammunition the
Government nffcndS pir class nj citizens
and invites protests from one group of
belligcrentS. By failing to drnouncc the
invasion of Belgium and by stretching
courtesy - the limit IN the reception OF
hunted warShipS az uffcndS another
class of citizens and invites protests
from another group of hrlIgrrrntS. But
while Mr.. Wilson did not deal directly
with these questions. the Inference to be
drawn from his speech was that la AL
such respects he considers the Govern
ment il strictly oboying national and
International law and custom. II has
done or omitted 10 do nothing that dis
qualities il a. a possible mediator.
Every American citizen should re-
member these words from the Presi.
dent : speech. With characterize ION
cisencss they clearly sum the duty of
the nation:
