Hardly a single thing has occurred

world is concerned, but all the while
our own life touches these matters at

The United States is trying to keep

At that time, however, the author

dedicated our force to the service of
justice and righteousness and peace.
I'VE have said, Our chief interest
is not in the rights of property but in
the rights of man; our chief interest
is in the spirits of men that they
might be free, that they might enjoy
their lives unmolested so long as they
observe the just rules of the game:
that they might deal with their fellow
men with their heads erect, the sub
jectS and servants of no man but the
servants only of the principles upon
which their lives rested, And America
has done more than care for her own
people and think of her own fortunes
in these great matters. She has said
ever since the time of President Mon
roe that she was the champion of
freedom and the separate sovereignty
of peoples throughout the western
hemisphere. She is trustee for those
ideals and she is pledged, deeply and
permanently pledged. to keep those
momentOuS promises.
She not only therefore must play
her part in keeping this conflagaration
from spreading to the people of the
United States; she must also keep this
conflaSration from spreading on this
side of the sea. These are the matters
IN which our very life and pride are
embedded and rooted, and we cannot
draw back from them. And |. my fell
low citizens, because of the eXtraor-
binary office with which you have en-
trusted me, must, whether | will or
not, be your responsible spokesman in
! these great matters. 1t is my duty.
therefore, when Impressions are deeply
borne in upon me with regard to the
national welfare to speak to you with
the utmost frankness about them; and
that is the errand upon which | have
come away from Washington
For my own part, l am sorry that
these things fell within the year of a
national political campaign They
| ought to have nothing whatever to do
with politics. The man who brings
partisan feeling into these matters and
seeks partisan advantage by means of
| them is unworthy of your confidence.
The thing to do now is for all
men of all parties to think along the
same lines and to do the same things
and forget every difference that NAV

WILSON s PLAN
FACES SNAG IN
BOTH HOUSES
Republican A. P. Leased Wrel

WASHINGTON. Jan. 29.-While
President Wilson is carrying to the
country his appeal for adequate ma
tional defense one of the vital ele-
ments of the program he has raised to
congress-the continental army-faces
serious opposition in both the senate
and house military committees.
Such an army. described by Secre-
tary Garrison as embodying the most
attractive scheme that could be de-
vsed to give a final test of the prob
lem of training an adequate number of
federal volunteers in peace times would
be expected to provide 100000 men of
the total approximately 100000 which
the entire plan is calculated to make
available
Present indications are that the con-
tinental proposal in some form will be
written into the army increase bill be
ing prepared by the senate military
committee, although that measure will
be devoted mainly to a complete re-
organization of the regular army on {,
basis Of approximately 235,000 men
with the cOlors, increasing Secretary
Garrison's proposals in that respect by
nearly 100000 men.
Senator Chamberlain, chairman of
the serate military committee said to-
night he was confident his committee
would turn out without great delay a
well rounded bill providing for the ele-
ments of a national army of million
or more men. He thought proposals
for compulsory service or universal
training in the schools would be pre-
scented as separate bills, as few adVo-
Gates Of the universal service system
| had been able to satisfy themselves
| that either congress or the country was
prepared for such a radical change in
policy.
Some members of the house military
committee are expected to make Wig
Orous efforts to couple government
production of war materials with any
army increase program that may be
recommended. Just what form this
proposal will take is unsettled, but its
advocates apparently are acting on the
theory that some such provisions is
advisable to meet the war scares and
armament movements for selfish reas-
ons.
SO far as the navy is concerned
| there has been little on which to judge
the feeling of the house committee but
it seems evident, that a cOnsiderab bic
| increase being the program for 1915
would be favored. In general discus
sion among members of both houses
the prevailing opinion seems to be that
Secretary Daniels five year program
| finally will go through and possibly be
augmented in some particulars.
