TO KEEP
NATION
AWAKE

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Feb. 10.
The administration, fearing that
ultimately war or state of war"
with Germany must come, is anx-
ious to keep alive the martial
spirit in America. Ii wishes to
guard against the shaping influ-
ence of an undue sense of security.
On the other hand, there is no
manifest move to raise an army
for actual war. though there has
been some progress made toward
naval and economic preparedness.
This epitomizes the govern
ment position today at the close
of one week of broken relations
between the L. S. and Germany.
II has prepared itself for inter-
national difficulties and there 10

with some discussion of various
forms of military service.
Insofar as an actual declara-
ton of war is concerned, as it was
expressed officially after yester-
days cabinet meeting, that VIII
be upon Germany's responsibility.
The president himself has de-
termined to follow the literal
wording of his recent speech to
congress-to ask only for the
means of protecting American
seamen's and peoples lives. He
will keep upon Germany the bur
den of any actual declaration of
war.
Conveys and perhaps issuance
of guns for defense of merchant
ships are the two most likely
necessary precautions that
have been suggested and consid-
cred by the president However.
his closest friends say he has not
spoken his mind on this point.
In addition, should he be forced
to go to congress, he will proba-
bly, ask that the navy be placed
at his disposal for coast patrol
work, as well as for convoy tasks.
In addition. il real war were at
hand, he might ask a CONSUMPTION
law, or call for big volunteer
army to be whipped into shape for
actual foreign service.
