printer was called to the executive
offices and given the manuscript Of the
presidents address.
Does Not Await Overt Act.
The president concluded that it
might not be wise to wait for an overt
act before asking additional authority
Of congress. The accumulation of vio-
lations of American rights and the fail
ure Of American merchantmen to leave
ports brohght him to the decision.
When the. president announced to
congress the severance. of diplomatic
relations he said he was unwilling to
believe that Germany was willing to
sacrifice the friendship of the United
Ste teess, but added: .s.
"Rut If this confidence on my part
on the sobriety and prudent foresight
of their purpose should unhappily be
unfounded; If American ships and lives
should be sacrificed by their command
ers in needless controvention of the
just and reasonable understandings of
international law and the obvious die
tates of humanity. I shall again come
before congress to ask that authority
be given me to take any means for the
protection of our seamen in the prose-
cution of their legal errands on the
high seas
In addition to giving authority to es-
tablish an armed neutrality congress is
expected to place in the presidents
hands the authority to get the money
needed to carry out his plans. No new
direct appeal is to be made, it was said.
Armed Neutrality Defined.
Armed neutrality is described by au-
thorities on International law as mill
tary measures to protect the rights of
neutrals from infringement on the part
Of belligerents.
IF the commercial interests Of sew
eral nations" says one authority, 'are
threatened by unjust or unlawful
measures on the part Of a belligerent
there can be no question Of their right
to secure their menaced interests by
such combination as seems best calcu-
lated to accomplish that purpose.
'An armed neutrality is in fact an
alliance OF several powers. usually Of
a.defensive character. tho this is by no
means essential"
Hopes to Avoid War.
''Devotely expressing the hope that
it would not become necessary to put
armed force into action. the president
asked authority to supply merchant
ships with defensive arms. with the
means to using them" and Ito employ
other instructmentalities, as we'll as a
sufficient credit to enable "him to pro-
vide adequate means Of protsction."
This without being specific in terms
was request for the use Of the army
and navy and the necessary money to
make them effective.
Behind the rights of Americans, the
president declared, he was thinking Of
the rights OF humanity but thru 1t all
he proclaimed world policy Of peace.
If peace be possible. He disclaimed
thinking -of war or steps that might
lead to it, and declared that the Amer
lean people wanted 70 exercise none
but the right1 ot peacA

Washington, Feb. 26.-Presldent VIII
son addressed joint session of con-
gress at p. m. today. The president
asked authority to establish a state OF
armed neutrality. He presented plans
to protect American ships entering the
herman war zone. The president asked
the power to use the armed forces to
project American ships on the high
seas.
At9:3O the address went to the pub
lie printer and at the same time the
president discussed his speech with
senator Stone, Of the senate foreign
4 relations committee.
Not Declaration Of War.
II was learned that the president was
doing today Just what he outlined in
his address before congress announcing
the breaking Of diplomatic relations
with Germany.
TO ask authority to use the forces of
the United States to protect American
rights is not in any sense an act OF
war nor is 1t declaration Of war.
Mr.. Wilson's decision to go before
congress was partly caused by the fact
that Germany's campaign is keeping
American ships tied up In American
ports. He pointed out that while he
desires peace there is something
greater than peace-the protection OF
the sovereign rights Of Americans, and
the untrammeled rights of American
ships to sail the seas unmolested must
be upheld.
~ J 80 7As Either Guns or Conveys.
Arming American merchantmen or
conveying them thru the war zone are
two methods Of protecting commerce
being considered. Exactly what steps
viii be taken has not been revealed
The president decided that before
06n9ress adjourned for the session 1t
war necessary that he be given addi-
tional authority to protect American
rights. There have been reports that
such move would be opposed in con-
gress
The president pointed out that Ger
" rnany's acts since the break in rela-
tions indicate her determination to so
forward with her campaign of ruthless
ness. The president is represented as
confident that congress will rise to the
occasion and give him the desired au-
I thOrity.
still Anxious to Avoid War.
The president is still as anxious as
ever, 1t was said, to avoid war but Us
determined to protect American rights,
President Wilson is still confident
that an extra session of congress will
/ be unnecessary. The situation outlined
Id His address, he believes. is such that
i congress will give him the desired au-
tfaority ungrudgingly. He has care
fully looked up the precedent and has
found that on previous occasions the
\ United States took a similar position
{ without war. This was once done when

Extent of Conveying Merchantmen With Naval

Washington Feb. 26.-President Wilson appeared be-
fore congress at o'clock this afternoon and asked
thoriy to place the United States in state of "ared

As the president his way to congress word was
received Of the sinking of the Cunard liner Lacona which
added graveness to the situation
Continued invasion of the rights of neutrals the high

the place Of overt act and have forced the pres
dent to the next step toward war.
President Wilson, asking for power to take whatever
steps necessary which includes the arng of ships the
conveying Of merchantmen by vessels whatever
steps necessary made it plain again that he wants
peace but not at the expense of American rights by
driving the A1ne4 lean flag from the
Congress not only expected to authorize the president
10 use the armed forces but to provide funds.
Once before the American nation adopted Of
ar1ned neutrality" to protect American rights In the
war between France and England such course was
stalen.
Whether another armed neutrality will will
depend upon whether Germany realizes the United States
IL ready to protect its rights by nec
essary. II
With full realization Of the solemnity Of the OCCASION
the president took his position today, confident that
gress would stand behind him.
