WILSON'S ADDRESS

The action OF President Wilson II
going before the senate to deliver an
address on the ending OF war and the
establishment Of program for the
prevention Of armed conflict between
nations seems radical al the first blush
but II Is certain TO be recorded in the
history of the world as Uue Of the
turning points of human affairs When
Abraham Lincoln delivered his en-
ancipation proclamation he put the
United States in the forefront Of civil
i1ed commonwealth and drew iEmor,

The effect may not b. noticeable fol-
some time and II may be the means Of
bringing about a reconciliation b.
tween the disturbed factions in the
brotherhood Of man. # l. the first
time that q national leader has off
ciaIIy recognized the fact that the zeal
world of men was not limited By the
boundaries OF his own country. Whe-
Their or not his plea will be successful
in restoring the world to a sane bal,
ance IL cannot avoid being OF faE
reaching effect for human good and
the immediate result cannot strip II OF
its character OF charity toward the
weaknesses and needs OF world gone
awry.
It has been said that dogs fight b.,
cause they cannot reason and that
men fight when they take the same
mental level, and TO that might be add
cd that nations clash with less dignity
Il would seem that the human fam.

Owing to the fact that no more reg

has opened q recruiting sub-station at

Gated in the building occupied by the

-Four Grand Forks men already
have been enlisted and leave today for

Sergeant McKeen received word TO-
day to the effect that drafted men car
be enlisted provided they have letter.
from their local boards to the enec,
that they are not needed to fill in the

At present, Sergeant McKeen says
the government is calling for trades

the gun. Very liberal inducements ar
offered for skilled men OF practicall!
every profession. The medical de

more men, which should appeal t.
young men over 10 years OF age.
