British officials as "unwarranted in.
references" and, urgently requesting
a prompt reply, points out that "a
strong feeling il being aroused" in
this country by the loss Of valuable
letters, while foreign banks are refus-

Denies Right of Britain.

parcel post articles are entitled to the
exemptions of neutral trade, and de-
MES the right of Great Britain to take
neutral mail ships into British juris-
diction for purposes of search and
then submit them to local censorship

It also denies that the British gov

LET JAPAN CONTROL ISLANDS
Senator Clark Says Mikado Could Do
Much for Philippines in
Future.

Washington, Jan. Ex-senator Clarke
Of Arkansas, author Of the Philip
pines bill amendment for the indie
pendence of the islands in from two
or four years, asserts his willingness
to have Japan ultimately take over the
control of the islands.
Japan, he said, had accomplished
much for Korea and because of racial
similarity should do much in the
Philippines. Inasmuch as the United
States had made it undesirable for the
Japanese to get footing in this
hemisphere he believed the United
States should be willing to keep out
of the Asiatic countries.

STRIKING SENTENCES FROM
ADDRESS ON PREPAREDNESS

America is forced-whether she
will or no-in the decades Immediate
ly ahead of us, to furnish the world
with is chief economic guidance and
assistance.
1--WE can no longer be q provincial
nation.
Let no man say if he would speak
the truth that the question of per-
lection of national defense is a Ques-
ton of war or peace.
There is something the American
people love better than they love
peace. They love the principles upon
which their political life is founded.
They will at no time seek q contest,
but they will at no time cravenly avoid
it. Because If there is one thing that
every nation ought to fight for it is
the integrity Of it's own convictions.
We will not surrender our convictions.
I would rather surrender territory
than surrender those ideals which are
the staff of life for the soul itself.
IF we should go into Mexico do
you know what would happen? All
the sympathy Of the rest of America
would look across the water and not
northward to the great Republic
which we profess to represent.
more than a year ago I said this
question of military preparedness was
not pressing subject. But more than
a year has gone since then and
would be ashamed if 1 did not learn
something in IA months.
II don't know anything about what
is going to happen when the war is
over, and neither do you.
America never will be the aggres-
sor; America always will seek to the
last point at which her honor is in
volved to avoid the things which dis
turb the peace of the world.
"But America does not control the
circumstances of the world and we
must be ready to defend the things
we love against every contingency
which may acct or impair them

New York, Jan. 28.-President Will

Doctrine Of Peace.
In the announcement of his doctrine
as to peace and belligerency, the Presi-

from further discussion the "too proud

in greater criticism both in this coun-
try and Europe than any other utter

The Presidents address was devot-
ed to the cause Of peace.

and this, he declared, is now and

ward foreign nations and "our unfor-
tunate neighbor to the south. :"

Justice without aggression" is the
keynote of President Wilson's policy
toward Mexico, he told 1000 clergy
men assembled in Aeolian hall. "The
foundation of peace is justice without
aggression" the President declared,
adding that he was committed to the
policy Of allowing Mexico to work out
her own affairs.
