Big Chicago Crowds Greet
President and Mrs. Wilson
During Stopover in City

CHICAGO, January 81
President Wilson spent an hour
and half in Chicago today en-
route to Milwaukee, where he
speaks this afternoon. The train
bearing the Presidents party ar
rived at the La Sale street sta
ton shortly after 8 o'clock, and
was switched through freight
yards to the Northwestern termi-
nal, where the President remained
until his special departed for the
north at 10 am.
At the Northwestern station the
President and Mrs. Wilson posed for
photographers and took short walk
on the platform. Mrs. Wilson accom-
panied the party to Milwaukee.
At both stations crowds numbering
several thousands stood outside the
gates. President Wilson appeared on
the observation platform and lifted his
hat to the crowd, but Mrs. Wilson re-
manned inside the car.
The Frankfurter Zeitung report that
the Lusitania reply from Germany was
in Washington was read to the Presi-
dent here today. He shook his head
and said so far as he knew it was not
true.

departure of the train a sharp ex-
plosion was heard Secret service men
, crowded to the platform, and the Pres
! ident, apparently somewhat startled
| entered the car. A cloud of escaping
steam showed that the connecting hose
between the rear coach and the one
next forward had burst. The President
soon emerged, and stepping to the plat
form walked to where the break was
being repaired.
The President started upon the last
stage of his tour refreshed by a days

The trip from Chicago to Milwaukee
was to be broken by the first of sew

car. Three such addresses were on the
program: At Waukegan. ILL.,. 1850

ufacturers to make money.
There are some things that are
being said that | hope you will not be-
lieve." the President declared. 1T is
being said. among other things. that
this agitation for preparation for ma
tional defense comes chiefly from those
who are interested in supplying the
government with the munitions of war
and from those who are interested in
supplying it with armament.
Gentlemen, do not allow yourselves
to be misled by statements of that
sort. Anything that the governme mt
does somebody is going to make money
out of: but the impulse for this thing
The impulse comes from men disinter-
ested, men who know the actual cir
cumstances of the country and who
know that these things are immedi-
ately necessary.
Nation Can Protect Itself.

Gated and always shall advocate that the
government as far as possible shall
manufacture these things for itself, in
order that at any rate it may control
the prices at which these articles will
be sold to the government. If 1T is
necessary to protect ourselves against
those who would make money out of
the necessities of the nation, there are
adequate means of defending ourselves,
and we will use these means.
But i don't believe the impulse
comes from those quarters. l don't be-
lieve that in those quarters there is
patriotism lacking any more than there
is patriotism lacking in other quar-
ters.''
The Presidents declaration was de-
livered from the rear platform of his
private car at Racine, Wis. half an
hour before he reached this city.
