PRESIDENT WILSON WARNS
 HYPHENATES TO GO EASY

ing to explain to you what we are get ting prepared for. and I want to point out to you the only process of prepara- ton which is possible for the United States. It is possible for the United States to get ready only if the men of suitable age and strength will volunteer to get ready. I heard the president of the United States Chamber of Com merce report the other evening on referendum to 750 of the chambers of commerce of the United States upon the question of preparedness, and he re- ported that go per cent of them had voted in favor of preparedness. Very well, men, we are going to apply the acid test to those gentlemen, and the acid test is this: Will they give the young men in their employment free dom to volunteer for this thing? I wish the referendum had included that, be- cause that is of the essence of the matter.
 Ut is very well to say that some body else must prepare, but are the business men of this country ready themselves to lend a hand and sac rifice an interest in order that we may get ready? We shall have an answer to that question in the next few months. A bill is lying upon my table now ready to be signed which bristles all over with that interrogation point and I want all the business men of the country to see that interrogation point staring them in the face. I have heard a great many people talk about uni versal training-universal voluntary training, with all my heart, if you wish it-but America does not wish anything but the compuision of the spirit of America. I for my part do not entertain any serious doubt of the an- swer to these questions, but I suppose there is no place in the world where the compulsion of public opinion is more imperative than 1t is in the Uni ted States. You know yourself how you behave when you think nobody is watching. And now all the people of the United States are watching each other. There never was such a blaz- ing spotlight upon the conduct and principles of every American and each one of us now walks and blinks in 1t. And as this spotlight sweeps It's re- 1entless rays across every square mile of the territory of the United States, know a great many men, even when they do not want to, are going to stand up and say Here, because Amer ica is reused, reused to self-con- sciousness and a national self-con- sciousness such as she has not had in a generation. And this spirit is going out conquering and to conquer until 1t may be in the providence of God, a new light is lifted up in America which shall throw the rays of liberty and justice far abroad upon every sea, and even upon lands which now wall low in darkness and refuse to see the light"
