SOMETHING WORTH NOTING.

waterbury's people are saving their money, according 10 the bankers, as they never saved before, a mos: grsti- flying revelation In. view the of the nu- pleasant facts about high prices Of rents and high prices of foods and high prices of domestic fuels. It Is good that the banks are SO well pa tronized and it speaks we'll for he thriftiness of the people and for the future of the city for where folks stay and save they are likely to stay and live if they get sufficient encour- agement. It rains much In the hands of the bankers to determine whether the present population will be retained by the city or allowed to float off 10 spend it's money in other com munit.es because of conditions which make it difficult for them to establish homes in which to settle here per- manently.

NO CRISIS SAYS
(Continued from Page Two)

spect to preparations for national de- fense.
 T have heard some gentlemen say that we have no coast defenses worthy talkink about, because defenses are not nowadays advocated, you understand end they are not visible to the naked eye. So that if you passed them and nothing exploded, you would not know they were there. And the coast de- lenses of the United States, while not numerous enough, are equipped in the most modern and efficient fashion. You are told that there has been some sort of neglect about the navy.
 There has not been any sort of ne clest about the navy. We have been slowly building up a navy which in quality is second to no navy in the world and the only thing it lacks is quantity.
 What we are proposing tomorrow is not a sudden creation of a navy for we nave splendid navy, but the def mite working out of program by which within five years we will bring the navy to a fighting strength which otherwise might have taken eight or ten years; along exactly the same lines nf development that have been followed and followed diligently and intelligent ly fer at least a decade past. There is no sudden panic, there is
Arizona republican., 1916-02-01

no sudden change of plan. All that has happened is that we now see that wo ought more rapidly and more thor Oughly than ever before to do the things which have always been char acteristic of America. For she has al ways been proud of her navy and has hcen addicted to the principle that her citizenship must do the fighting on land. We are working out American principles a little faster. because American pulses are beating a little faster, because the world is in a whirl owing to incalculable elements of trouble abroad which we cannot control or alter. l would be Gerelict to the du- " which you have laid upon me if aid not tell you that it was absolutely necessary to carry out our principles in this matter now and at once.
 Who shall say what the spirit of America is? 1 many times heard ora tors apostrorhize this beautiful flag which is the emblem of the nation. many times heard orators and philoso- phers speak of the spirit which was resident in America.
 ''I always have, for my own part felt that it was an act of audacity to at tempt anything of that kind and when nave been outside of the country, in foreign lands, and have been asked if this, that or the other. was true of America, have habitually said: Moth ing stated, ill general terms, is true of
Arizona republican., 1916-02-01

America. because it is the most varia gated and varied, ana multiform land under the sun. And yet. I know, my fellow citizens, that if you turn away from he physical aspects of the coun- try, if you turn away from the variety of the streams of blood that make up cur great population, if you turn away from the great variation of occupation and of interest among our fellow citi- Zens, there Is q spiritual unity in America.
 q know that there are some things which stir every heart in America, no matter what the racial derivation, or the local environment, ana one of the things that stirs every American is the love of individual liberty. We do not stand for occupation. We do- not stand for material interest. We do not stand for any narrow conception of political Institutions, but We do stand for this, that we are banded together in Ameri- ca to see to it that no man shall serve any master who is not of his own choosing.
 And we have been very liberal and generous to lhis idea. We have seen great people for the most part not the same blood with ourselves to the south of us, build up policies in which this same idea pulsed and was pregnant, this idea of free> institutions and in- divdual liberty and when we have seen hands reach across the water
Arizona republican., 1916-02-01

from older political policies and inter Iere with the development of free in stitutions of the western hemisphere, we have said: No, we are the cham nions of the freedom of popular soV- ereignty wherever it displays or exer- cises itself, throughout both Americas
 We are the champions of a particu lar sort Cf freedom. the sort of free dom which is the only foundation and guarantee of peace.
 Peace lies in the hearts of great in- dustrial and agricultural populations, and we have arranged a government on this side of the water, by which their performances and their predic- tions and their interests are. the main = springs of government itself. And so when We prepare for national defense we prepare for national protective in tegrity: we prepare to take care of the grelt ideals which give birth to this government: we are going back in spirit and in energy to those great first generations in America. when men banded themselves together though they were but a handful upon a single coast of the Atlantic, to set up in the world the standards which have ever since floated everywhere but Ameri cans asserted the roWer of their gov Crnment.
 AS I came along the line of the railway today, l was touched to oh serve that everywhere, upon every
