AMERICA FIRST IS PLEA 0F PRESIDENT Addresses Associated Adver- tising Clubs of World IN FIGHTING MOOD Ready to Do Battle for Justice at Any Cost to Himself-America First

Philadelphia, June 29-President Wilson, describing himself as in fighting mood enunciated today to large crowd in Independence Square his conception of some of the cardinal American ideals He declared that America in dealing with other nations, must 'vindicate at what tice and humanity; that America first" must be translated into action exalting all selfish interests; and that the nation s policy and development must be guided by the whole people and not by any small group
 Applause repeatedly interrupted the ad- dress The crowd liked particularly the Presidents declaration that American principles must be vindicated in dealing interpreted as referring to the Mexican situation. At no time however, did MT. Wilson mention Mexico or any other for eign nation directly.
 .T believe" the President said, that America. the country we put first in our thoughts, should be ready in every point of policy and of action to vindcate at whatever cost the principles of liberty, of justice and of humanity to which we have been devoted from the first.
 JUSTICE AT ANY COST
 q believe that at whatever cost Amer lea should be just to other people and treat other people as she demands that they should treat her. She has a right to demand that they treat her with justice and respect and she has right to insist that they treat her in that fa.Ihion, put she cannot with dignity or with self re- spect insist upon that unless she Is willing to act in that same fashion toward them. cost to myself"
 In urging that the people should shape the national policies the President said that some men pretend to believe in the average man, but when they acted they showed they did not.
 "Oh, you. Teddy" some one shouted and the President hastened to explain that he was not referring to any certain individual.
 America first means nothing unless you translate it into what you do," was a statement that brought prolonged ap- plause. Cheers also greeted the Presi- dents declaration that while he was not interested in fighting for himself. he was 'immensely interested in fighting for the things that I believe in. and so far as they are concerned am a challenger to all comers.''

By HUGH w. ROBERTS

Washington June -(SpeciaL)-The re- publicans, apparently realizing the ad- vantage possessed by the democratic ad- ministration, are hoping against hope for an anti-Wilson landslide, and are cen tering their attack on the empire state of New York.
 It is their insistence that Wilson can not be reelected unless he wins New York. While the democrats contend that tLley could safely carry Ohio and yield pairing to exert every energy to prevent Hughes carrying his native state.
 The two parties are sparring at the present moment. Politics is now the hand maiden of Mars. Until the Mexi- can situation is cleared up, no aggressive e programme by either camp will be under taken. Some eastern students of na- tional politics contend that if war against Mexico is declared, the President will be reelected, and that if Carranza is per mitted to worm out of the situation, the President will be beaten.
 WILSON'S INITIAL STRENGTH
 But while the antagonists are waiting the verdict in the case of the United States against Mexico, there is at pres ent much speculation.
 Republicans do not boast that the re- election of the President is impossible. They admit that Wilson has chance. They give him the solid south possessed of 126 electoral votes, but do not concede Oklahoma with 10, Maryland with 8, or New Jersey with IA.
 A member of the republican national committee. after declaring that since the lmmolation of Roosevelt, the election of Hughes was practically certain, conceded the point that the President has chance to win the following electral votes:

NEW IOAh VOAAA
 From the foregoing, it is evident that should the democrats carry New York with it's 45 electoral votes, the President would win.
 Or were he to lose New York and carry Ohio with "A votes, the states outlined above, and several of the smaller states, he would win. It is evident, however, that the odds will favor that party to win which carries New York. Hence, it is certain that as soon as the Mexican sit uation is settled either by declaration of war or the return of the frightened dove of peace, both camps will begin smelling the woods in an effort to capture New York.
 The republican committeeman quoted above, is certain that Hughes, Roosevelt and Wall street will carry New York,

consin manufacturer who pursues
novel methods of obtaining efficiency.
He found one girl at a machine
squirting and wrinkling her forehead.
He decided that she had eye trouble,
and after some argument she Was in
duced to go to an oculist. Her work,
which requires good eyesight, i'm
proved wonderfully and she cried out
in amazement of the beauty Of a world
she had ever seen before.
Another girl tending a complicated
machine obviously had a defect. By
a little questioning the efficiency ex-
pert learned that she took cup of
strong coffee and a little toast for
breakfast Arrangements was made to
add to her morning diet, and she too,
found her working capacity increased.
SO this efficiency man goes about
his plant, solving individual problems
and repairing human machines tact
fully but surely. He set to work to
reduce the temperature of the factory
room and increase its humidity There
was a very noticeable eagerness to

his life was spent midst archives of

prime days as scholastic, formulating
theories, announcing theories, teach

However, with such background
a man is badly handicapped when call

Woodrow Wilson's energies are
readily transferable into lofty mus
ings and pretty theories. His moto-
side runs to words, not deeds. Essenti-
ally an intellectualist and a scholastic
he is detached from the world of men

his lack of capacity in dealing with

dispose of even the choicest mercan-

Much interest has this week been
conferred upon the grain markets. The
repeated reports of black rust and
other sources of destruction for the
growing crops have been reflected in
a sharp advance in the price of wheat
and corn in the principal wheat ex-
changes. While reports of black rust
reach us from North and South Da-
kota and Minnesota, it must be re-
membered that such reports are of
yearly occurrence and in fact the Wis
ltatlon of rust is yearly phenomenon.
and in conservative quarters it is felt
that the crop scare is not warranted
by actual conditions.
Britain's Blacklist
Commendable progress has been
made by this government in its efforts
to modify, Or to nullify the effect of
American mercantile firms. The Brit
lsh government has already made ma
terial indications in the application of
of the blacklist of American firms ac-
cused of trading with Germany. 1t
has ruled that the blacklist was not
intended to be directed against neu-
trail trade, and that it will not apply
to contracts already in existence.
There is thus hope and feeling that
an amicabe adjustment of the whole
matter may be found, and that in time
the effect of the blacklist will be
negligible.
Should the British government not
be amendable to reason, it must be
quite emphatically pointed out that the
backlisting of American exporters is
an unneutral act to such an extent
that it may be classed as unfriendly.
Ot necessity, some of the vessels en-
gagged in carrying trade are American
bottoms, and the refusal by the own

houses will be followed by prosecu-
ton under the Federal law. Further
than this, the refusal of neutral YES
sells to carry cargoes which may be
offered them on the ground that they
will thus make themselves liable to
hostile British action will subject such
neutral shipowners to the same conse-
quences as will be visited upon re-
calcitrant British vessels 1t is quite
needless to lapse in tedious surplusage
in recounting what the government
will in pursuing policy of self-de-
tense. Everything possible in this line
is too obvious to require specification,
and it is much more to the purpose
to point out some of the reasons why
this monumental foolishness should
be even bought of by serious gov
eminent carried on by responsible
statesmen.

Business and Finances
By w. S. Cousins Editor American Banker.

New York, July 29,-The weakness
in the stock market in recent weeks
has been attributable to a multiplicity
of causes not the least of which is the
renewed foreign liquidation which has
been present on heavy scale. The
investment demand continues light,
and American investors seem disin-
clined to purchase railroad and indus
trial shares when they are convinced
that the English and French holders
will sell them on the slightest sign
of advance. The New York market
has been absorbing foreign-owned
American securities for nearly two
years; but the capital available for this
purpose has been reduced by the fota-
ton of new corporations capitalized
at nearly two billions of dollars in
the first half of the current year, and
by the financial requirements of our
expanding commerce. Records show
that during the past year more than
one billion dollars of American money
has been put into foreign loans di-
rectly. Add to this the vast amount
of money that investors have brought
forward for the repurchase of our
oWH SCSulltlSS anu TIC RIduu lOldl
is almost inconceivable. 1t has made
tremendous difference in our inter-
national financial status but 1t has
required the expert skill and applica-
ton of Americas financial leaders.
There is fear, however, that should
the liquidation process be continued
simultaneously with the heavy calls
for new capital in other direction,
there will not be sufficient investment
demand to absorb the offerings which
will come to the market from foreign
sources. Two factors may be depend
ed upon, however, to prevent SER
ious trouble in this direction; first,
the British mobilization" through
which the bulk of foreign-owned Sc
curities are largely CONTROLLED; and
second, the comparatively limited
quantity of such stocks now held
abroad considering the continued
liquidation of the past two years.
After the weakly margined ac-
counts had been shaken out the bears
found it no longer to their advantage
to sell out at prices higher than those
at which they could buy them back,
and as a consequence many stocks
on the selling list have been giving
good accounts of themselves. Even
the motor stocks, for which a short
lease of life had in some quarters
been predicted, showed that they
were capable of coming back" in
way that surprised even their own
supporters.
The first two days of the current
week again emphasized the watchful
waiting attitude of investors and spec
ulators. and the market dragged and
sagged without any definite policy or
program. Traders were inclined to
await the quarterly meeting of the
directors of the United States Steel
Corporation and. through extremely
favorable reports were anticipated no
one quite expected that the record of
the second quarter would have been
so gratifying as it proved to be-
