local environment and 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 mate rial interest. We do not stand for any narrow conception even of political insti- tutions; but we do stand for this that we are banded together in America to see to 1t that no man shall serve any master who is not of his own choosing.
 "As I came along the line of the rail- way today I was touched to observe that everywhere, upon every railway station. upon every house. where a flag could be procured, some temporary standard had been raised from which there floated the Stars and Stripes. They seem to have divined the errand on which I had come that we must subordinate every individual interest, and every local interest to assert once more, if it should be necessary to assert them, the great principles for which that flag stands.
 Do not deceive yourself as to where the colors of that flag came from-those lines of red are lines of blood, nobly and unselfshly shed by men who loved the liberty of their fellow men more than they loved their own lives and fortunes God forbid that we should have to use the blood of America to freshen the color of that flag, but if it should ever be

OF BANK
 MORE PROMISING

That the affairs of the Alabama Penny Savings bank, the negro financial insti- tuition which closed it's doors some weeks ago, are beginning to look more prom ising is the opinion of Alex E. Walker, state superintendent of banks, who is in Birmingham. MT. Walker stated last night that he was now much more hope full about this institution than when it first failed. He is receiving the active cooperation of the leading negroes of the city and some of the property which will be sold will bring a much higher figure than seemed likely at first.
 Realizing that the immediate foreclos- ure of this property would result in very little money being realized MT. Walker has gone slowly, and has carefully sought out purchasers for the different assets of the bank. The leading negroes of the city have assisted and in many cases they have actually taken off the Ina nds of the bank some of the paper and other assets which could not be realized on at once.

NOT TO MAKE MONEY

Milwaukee, Wis, January 3l.-PreSident Wilson threw down the gage of battle to opponents of national preparedness who have declared that the movement sprang from the desires of munitions and arma- ment manufactures to make money.
 "There are some things that are being said that hope you will not believe" the President declared. "It is being said, among other things. that this agitation for preparation for national defense comes chiefly from those who are interested in supplying the government with the muni- tions of war and from those who are in- terested in supplying it with armament
 Gentlemen, do not allow yourselves to be misled by statements of that sort Anything that the government does in business is for it's betterment and the im- pulse for this thing does not come from those quarters The impulse comes from men disinterested; men who know the actual circumstances of the country, and who know that these things are imme- diately necessary
 'Mr Chairman, Fellow Citizens I need not inquire whether the citizens of Mill waukee and Wisconsin are interested in the subject of my errand" said the Pres ident in his speech here 'The presence of this great body in this vast hall sufficient ly attests your interest But I want at the outset to remove any misapprehension that may exist in your minds.

 Some men seem to have forgotten there is no precedent in American history for any action of aggression on the part of the United States or for any action which will indicate that America is seeking to connect herself with the controversies on the other side of the water.
 Men who seek to provoke such action have forgotten the traditions of the Uni ted States. and it behooves those who with them have entrusted office to re- member the traditions of the United States and to seq what those traditions are that the actions of the government are made to square with those traditions.

Students of Indian conditions have long maintained that there is abund- ant scope in India for all available labor and emigration is no longer one of India's necessities.
 How soon the governments promise of abolition will be put into effect is yet a matter of doubt. The Viceroy stated that the existing system of re- cruiting must be maintained until the new conditions could be worked out and reasonable time had been given the communities which depend on this labor to adjust themselves to the change.
 NO one who knows anything of Indian sentiment can remain ignorant of the deep and genuine feeling to which the continuance of the inden- ture system has given rise" said the

ADVENTURE SYSTEM A BLIGHT ON INDIA
Promise of Its Abolition Received
 With Rejoicing
tcor espondence of The Associated ores.,

fCorl espondence of The Associated oress.,
 Delphi, India, March 31.-The Gov garments announcement that it in tends to abolish the system of Indian indentured labor, made through the Viceroy few days ago, has been re- ceived with great satisfaction throughout India. The announce ment applies to the large shipments of coolie labor which are annually sent to Jamaica, Trinidad, British Guiana, Fiji, and Dutch Guiana.
 Indian feeling on the subject has for many years condemned the in denture system. No arguments as to It's possible economic advantages weighed against the feeling of educat- ed Indians that it degraded India in the eyes of the world. Recent reports showing the social degeneration causel the pahcity of women emigrat- Ing and also the number of suicides among the coolies have caused a pain full impression.

 Physicians recommend Emerald Oil; it is used in hospital practice and small bottle will last long time because 1t is very con centrated. Apply night and morning with the soft brush as directed until the swelling is reduced to normal.
 It is mar Felously powerful that swollen glands and even goitre disappear when used steadily.

VlceToy Tn his announcement 'F,du- caled indians look on it as slavery or Serfdom. This will soon be re- moved forever, and it is a source of deep satisfaction to me that one Of the last official acts I shall hava to perform in this country is to tell v,1 that l have been able to do somethinp to ensure that Indians who desire to work as laborers in tropical countries may do so under happier conditions. ana to obtain from His Majesty's Gov ernment promise that in due course the whole system which educated opihloh Tn India has long regarded as 1htolerable, will be abolished"
 The indenture system dates from 1S42. Natives of India are only per mltted to emigrate under contract to such countries as satisfy the govern ment of India that sufficient provi- sion is made for their protection. The coolles are recruited by licensed agents throughout Bengal, the United Provinces, the Central Provinces, the Southern Punjab, and Ajmir. The supply varies greatly, depending in a large degree on agricultural cond;- tlons in India, but it is estimated that 10000 per year is an average figure. Of these only about 5000 return to India at the end of the contrac period, the rest settling in the coun- tries to which they are sent Thus there were in Natal in 1910 over CO., 900 "free' Indians, whife in Mauri- tlus 70 per cent of the total popula- ton is Indian born or of Indian des- cent,
