OUR PRESIDENT CALLS BUSINESSMEN

everything that high freight charges do to make
the a failure, to make it impossible
Il know and you know what response to this
great challenge Of duty and Of opportunity the ma,
ton will expect Of YOU and know what response
YOU will make. Those who do not respond. who do
not respond in the spirit of those who have gone to
give their lives for us on bloody fields far away, may
safely be left to be dealt with by opinion and the
law-for the law must Of course command those
things
Il am dealing with the matter thus publicly and
frankly not because have any doubt or fear as to
the result. but only in order that in all think
ing and in all our dealings with another we
may move in a perfectly clear air Of mutual under
standing.
And there is something more that must add
to thinking. The public is nOW as much part Of
the government as are the army and nary them
SelreS; the whole people in all their activities are
now modified and in service for the accomplish
ment of the nations task in this war it is in such
circumstances impossible justly to distinguish be-
tween industrial purchases made by the government
and Industrial purchases made by the managers Of
industries, and it is just much our duty to sus,
tain the ndustras of the country with all the in
dustries that contribute to its life. it is to
tain our forces in the field and on the We must
make prices to the public the same as the prices
the government.
prices mean the same thing everywhere now
They mean the efficiency the inef1ciency of the
nation whether it is the government that pays them
or not. They mean victory defeat They mean
that America will win her place once for all among
the foremost free nations of the world, that she
will sink to defeat and become a second-rate power
alike in thought and in action. THIS is day of her
reckoning, and erery man amongst us must person.
ally face that reckoning along ,ctth her.
"The case needs arguing. l assume that am
only expressing your own thoughts-what must be
in the mind Of every true man when he faces the
tragedy and the solemn glory Of the present war,
for the emancipation of mankind.
~ summon you to great duty, great privilege,
a shining dignity and distinction. ! shall expect
every man who is not Stacker to be at my side
throughout this great enterprise.

The registration luncheon to be held tomorrow
noon should be the signal for Honolulu's greatest
assembly of businessmen, all men IN fact, VINO are
heart and soul mind and body behind the boys call
ed to the colors under the registration law. This
is an opportunity for to show by their presence
and their words if asked that they to be reckon
ed with the fighting forces; that they are ready to
do their share to 60 to stay where they will be
of the greatest value to their country.
Frequently the businessman wonders where he
comes in He knows it is his duty to help and he
is always ready to do his duty, but he is anxious TO
learn where and how to apply his energy.
President Wilson has answered this natural ques
~ton. His most recent call to the cOlOrs was spe-
officially ad dressed to the miners and the manufac-
turers, but it applies to all businessmen.
The presidents statement opens with reference
to the effort of the government to determine fair
prices for products The purpose is to determine
them justly "but justice" says the president, lis
easier to speak Of than to arrive at" His idea Of
lust price is "a price that will sustain the indus
tries concerned in high state of efficiency provide
a living for those who conduct them, enable them
to pay good wages, and make possible the expan
sions of their enterprises which will from time to
time become necessary the stupendous undertak-
sings of this great war develop. We could not wise
ly or reasonably do less than pay such prices They
are necessary for the maintenance and development
of industry; and the maintenance and development
of industry necessary for the great task we have
in hand
tProfits," says the president, "are matters of
business" but patriotism and profits ought never
In the present circumstances to be mentioned to-
gether."
3 "Patriotism leaves profits out of the question In
these days of supreme trial, when we are send
ing hundreds Of thousands of our young men across
the seas to serve great cause, no true man who
STAYS behind to work for them and sustain them by
his labor will ask himself what he is personally 60
ing to make out of that labor No true patriot will
permit himself to take toll of their heroism in
money or seek to grow rich by the shedding of their
blood He will give freely and with as unstinted
self-sacrifce as they. When they are giving their
lives will he not at least give his money" \
Mr.. Wilson scores roundly the shipowners of the
.gnited States and charges that "they are doing
