This Is Last World War U. S.
Can Keep Out Of, President
Says in Cincinnati Speech

By the Associated Press.
CINCINNATI. Ohio October 27.-Tak-
ing advantage of a strenuous visit to
Cincinnati to discuss the relation of the
United States to the European war,
President Wilson yesterday declared
that this Is the last war that involves
the world that the United States can
keep out Of" He gave as his reason
his belief that "the business of neu-
trality is over and that war now has
such a scale that the position of neu-
trails sooner or later becomes intoler-
able" He added that the nations of
the world must get together and say,
Nobody can hereafter be neutral as
respects the disturbance of the world S
peace for an object which the world s
opinion cannot sanction"
After denying the republican claim
that the business prosperity of the
United States during the last two years
has been due to trade created by the
war. the President ridiculed predictions
that after the war Europe will over
whelm this nation by its economic
strength and dump" in the United
States goods now being stored up for
that purpose. He asserted that exports
of everything that goes to supply
armies makes only l per cent of the
total of American commerce.
We ought not to turn to these peo-
pie in fear. but in sympathy" said the
President He added:
I'VE have means Of defense and we
have means of aggression. Our means
of defense are that we have taken
pains to have all the instrumentalities
to find out exactly what is going on
and to be ready to act Immediately we
find that 1t Is necessary to defend our
selves"
In his afternoon speech the President
urged the need for unity among the
people of the United States to meet
problems resulting from the war He
gave his moral for the present and
future as Let US see to it that America
as a whole and every American that
constitutes America as one of the frac-
tfons is shot through with that spirit
of human sympathy which is the only
spirit of true enterprise" lie said
In part:-- ----- ..--.-r
Have you ever heard what started
the present war? In as far as l can
gather. nothing in particular started
1t. but everything in general. After
this war is over. and sooner or later.
you will have just such another war,

SEEK PERMANENT BUILDING.
Alumni Of Washington College Of
Law Formulate Plans,

First steps in plans for erecting
permanent building for the Washing
ton College of Law were taken at
meeting Of the Alumni Association last
night. A committee of alumni was ar-
pointed to confer with the board OF
trustees of the college and to formulate
plans for raising the money for a per-
manent home for the institution.
The sense of the meeting seemed to
be that the increase in the size Of the
college and it's requirements could only
be met by a building especially de-
signed and maintained for college pur-
poses.
Mrs Ellen Spencer Mussey and others
made pledges toward the proposed
building. Miss Adele A. Stewart pre-
sided.

cheered by the Women.

Chicago women cheered Col. Roose-
welt yesterday when he appealed to
them not to be Influenced by the plea
that President Wilson had kept tho
nation out of war. When he told them
that he would fight at the drop Of the
hat, II necessary to stop the murder Of
women and children. they met the an
nouncement with q chorus Of applause
that delayed the speaker. and he walt
ed while they rose and waved handker-
chiefs and flags.
The colonel closed his western tour
here today with two speeches, the first
exclusively to women. with not moro
than a scant score Of policemen and
reporters in the audience. He had
been asked. -he said, to appear spe-
cially to the women who had been In
huenced by the peace slogan. but he
had decided to make, he declared ex-
actly the same appeal he would have to
mon.
Il am not going to speak," he said
ito what might call the early victo-

heckling the speaker, the only inter-
ruption.- except for words Of approval,
being after he had told of women and
children killed In Mexico and said he
would have gone to war II necessary

when President Wilson condemns
Americans in sweeping terms as ad-
venturers who are dishonesty exploit
ing Mexico. his charge is not only un-
supported by the facts. but is a sub
terfuge to keep mems minds away
from the horrible murders and out
rages Of American men, women and

THE truth Is that the Wilson policy
of refusal to protect American citizens

GIGAN
SWINDLE


PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Dec. II.
A gigantic swindle exceeding
even the widest dream of the
mythical j. Rufus Wallingford,
was revealed today, officials de-
clared, when U. S. postal inspec-
tors. conducted Wholesale raid
that resulted in the arrest of men
who had formerly stood we'll in
Philadelphia business circles.
One of the swindles is declared
by the authorities to have involv-
cd 0,000-most of it the
money of widows and orphans.
Eight companies are named by
the authorities as being involved.
According to Postal Inspector
Frank w. Smith, who conducted
an investigation into the affairs
of the companies that lasted a
year, the international Gas &
Electric Co. of Philadelphia was
the principal concern in the
scheme. It's 81. 100000 of stock,
said to be worthless, was sold
broadcast among 500 victims. The
other concerns We're used mostly
as "come-ons," Smith said.
With the single exception of
the Bankers of Independence, of
Philadelphia, all passed into the
hands of receiver in December,
1915, in one grand smash, said
Smith.

SACCATO GORDO IS
VALUABLE PRODUCT

Recently 4 correspondent from the
Verde Valley sent in plant for iden-
tification with the statement that it
had appeared in some quantity in his
fields and that it looked as though il
might be bad weed. He was having
it dug out. This plant is common in
southern Arizona and is known locally
to stockmen as 'saccato gordo." which
means fat grass. 1t belongs to the
Borage family and is a bland herb. 1t
begins growth in the winter season and
is often large enough for grazing by
February, and from this time until May
it is . splendid forage plant. The young
leaves are eaten by some of our south
western Indians as a salad. This plant
may be known by its rough hairy
leaves and stems and also by the small,
yellow, bell shaped flowers which are
borne IN semicircular clusters at the
ends of the branches. The leaves are
rather narrow and three or four inches
long and the plant often grows to a
height of II to 20 inches. The plant is
robust and coarse appearing and might
easily be taken for bad weed 1t is
an annual, however, and grows each
year from seeds and is devoid of any
tendency to become weed. 1t is very
much relished by all kinds of stock
The Experiment Station is always
ready to identify plants of this kind,
and therefore urges farmers and stock
inen TO send in more of such plants
and get such information as it is pos
sihle TO give.-T. ]. Thornber.

MOBILIZE At RACE
SPEED BY MOTORS

The possibilities of motor cars as
aids in the quick mobilization of troops
have just been demonstrated in army
held at Utica, n. Y. As a
result an automobile battalion of 20
cars will be formed to serve as an adj
junct to the u. S. troops stationed at
that city.
Sixeen Studebaker cars We're chosen
or the maneuvers, which included
dashes Of 80 miles up and down the
Mohawk valley. Two large manufac-
uring plants, one at Utica and the
)ther at llicn were chosen as the STRAIT
egit points, and in covering" them
Company OF the First Infantry set
a record for speed and efficiency, the
motor cars getting the soldiers to these
points at a hitherto impossible speed
The remarkable work of the auto
mobiles in the ''skirmishes' is all the
more noteworthy. the use of the cars
IN this occasion being a forerunner to
further efforts along the same line in
)ther army maneuvers at various
lamps.
1t required less than As minutes to
rush an entire infantry company from
he state armory to the most import
men strategic points IN the Mohawk
valley. The demonstration was the
history CT the National Guard, the
work of the motor cars being the fea-
,ure that attracted most comment.
