The ACCEPTANCE SPEECH
AN EDITORIAL APPRAISAL

President Wilson's speech Of
acceptance was comprehensive,
frank and direct.
1t was the utterance Of a man
and a political rarty conscious Of
the honesty Of past endeavors and
confident of ability to cope with
whatever problems the future might
have in store.
No President has ever been
called upon to face more serious
conditions than has Mr.. Wilson. He
has met them with patience and de-
votion that have won the respect and
admiration Of the world.
With domestic legislation to di-
rect, giving the relief from eco
nomic abuses that the country's well
fare demanded, with long list of
promises to fulfill, the great war that
burst upon the world threatened to
check him in his efforts and to in
volve the nation in the disasters that
are affecting almost every nation OF
the old world.
How he has brought the country
through it all, with honor and with
astounding prosperity the accept
anco speech succinctly and modestly
tells.
In three and a half years the coun-
try has been set Alright, every class
protected in its liberties and its OPP
portunities, the whole commercial
system set in order, with prosperity
abounding. And reason has never
abandoned its throne in all Of the
country's perpleyitics.
The speech was message to the
people of all the world; it was a
notice to the world that this country
is big enough to maintain its honor
and to keep out of war, and at tho
same time big enough to regulate its
domestic conditions. w..
The speech was no apology, no
defense, no complaint. 1t was a
speech that all men and women
should read to learn what the
country has really been doing.

to ask that a suffrage amendment be
voted upon have been Democratic

overextcnsion, lost everything and found my
self one day pcnniless and in debt. Though it
was painful shock it proved the biggest bless
ing in my life, for out OF the depths of the
bitter struggle into which 1 was thus thrust
came the knowledge which has now eliminated

How would you formulate this knowledge,
Mr.. Appelbaum1"
Mr.. Appelbaum reached for a copy OF The
Humanitarian Magazine" opened it, placed
finger on the third plank Of our platform
and read; That the givers, being fortunate,
should be thankful and grateful to the receiv-
ers for the opportunity of sharing with them
their own good fortune"
I'm 1914" he went on, my mother was
fatally stricken and before the end in the last
conversation she had with me. she told me
that ! would be of great help in changing
conditions.
This event gave the immediate impetus to
the capitalization Of my ideas and the forrna-
ton of the cult. On the 9th OF November,
1914, / went to the owner OF motion picture
theatre and spoke to him When I had fn-
ishcd he gave me the use OF his house and his
gratitude besides.
81 Immediately had circulars printed,
nouncing 4 meeting for Sunday morning and
invited forty of my friends. The morning OF
the meeting il rained dreadfully so that be-
sides my friends there were present twenty
two strangers, who were prevailed upon to
seek shelter from the rain among us. and,
much to my surprise and Joy, ended by joining
our band.
Although had no clear idea as TO a spe-
cihc programme for our work, strange to say
when the time came had no difficulty in out
lining it. 1t has always been a question in
my mind whether it was I who spoke that
day or the spirit Of the sweet fragrance Of my
mothers memory"

llST%HE question of Russian financial
standing is too deep and comph-
Gated to explain fundamentally in
a newspaper article" Thus spoke Joseph 1.
Dalinda. a young Russian journalist the editor
OF the Petrograd "Finansovaya Gazeta" and
representative Of the "Bourse Gazette" Mr..
Dalinda is typical Russian OF the high IN
tellcctual class of Peuograd and beuays IN
his lively gestures, expressive mi1nicry ana
nervous temperament man OF sem-Orl-
entail country, where events and things are
measured not from intellectual but An emo
tional point of view. Everything Mr. Dalinda
says is emphasized with the emotional gesture
of an Oriental. The conversation IS not
cold blooded discussion, but a living piece OF
actuality.
when the war was declared the German
Minister OF Finance, x. Helfferich, said in an
interview: This war will be fought not so
much with iron and blood with money.
The German war expenditures are unparalleled
in history and will undoubtedly increase. The
same Mr.. Helaerich made the statement in
March that the daily expenses OF the Teuton
armies are about 10. 1000 marks. In August
OF last year he spoke of 3oo,ooo,ooo marks his
country was spending on the war in day.
Almond the French Senator said last July
that the French war expenditures were 1870
100000 francs a month 1t is estimated that
the war costs Of Great Britain r;ach E3,ooo,ooo
day Thus, you see, the numbers arc simply
shocking The German war expenditures now
s.irpass in a month the expenditures of all the
war in IS70-'7I.
There is no doubt that Russia bears the
biggest burden in this war. not only because
Of her widest battle front, but because she is
deprived of her largest income source-the
vodka monopoly. To this must be added the
loss of income that Russia had from the prov
inces occupied by the Germans. According
70 the estimate Of prominent European eco
nomic experts, Germany, after her two years
war. will have lost one-sixth of all her ma
tional wealth. The Russian national wealth
is taxed at 200 milliard roubles The Russian
loss during two years war will reach from
ten to twelve milliard roubles. This is natu-
rally a terrific loss to a country, but the
wounds will DC soon healed in Russia once
war is over.
TIE great Russian wealth is in agriculture,
in sugar, cattle raising, dairy, wool, wheat,
