DREsIDENT WILSON'S speech
at Mount Vernon has been re-
ceived among the Allies with
universal enthusiasm AS head of
The State, he has an advantage over
Mr.. Lloyd George and NJ Clemen-
ceau. who are only Prime Ministers.
They have to fit their words to some
special audience or debate in Parlia-
rsnt. The President stands outside
Congress and can speak in universal
terms He can SO frame his appeal
that it can be translated into any
language and understood the whole
world over
Men and women everywhere can
appreciate the simple declaration
that this is a struggle between the
past and the present We all realize
what is meant by "no compromise
We are all glad that the complicated
abracadabra OF secret treaties should
be swept away.
ARelief and
A Surprise
On independence Day, when the
speech was delivered the Allies in
Europe expected another ferocious
German thrust Paris was alarmed
The Channel ports we're in danger.
The news that a million American
soldiers had crossed the Atlantic
thus came as a relief and as sur
prise With other correspondents, I
had cabled hints of it to Europe But
public opinion On the other side was
still skeptical, owing to the policy of
silence imposed by the authorities

only possible, but probable.
DIR. Iyenaga and his countrymen in
this country have lately been strange
ly insistent upon Japanese rights in
the United States. Finally the pub
lie will be interested to hear Japan's
explanation of the establishment of a
munitions factory within Carranzas
borders.
''The German reseryists who are
moving to Mexico, the $4,000 Japanese
reservists already resident there, the
new Japanese munitions factory,
would be tangible aid to Mr.. Car
rama in his next brush with the
United States.

President!

''The American rights to be pro-
tected are Americas rights at the
hands of all off Tenders. There is no
hint of Omitting the protection of
single one of them. England can get
from this declaration as little com
fort as Germany. 1t means America
first and America alone"
March 26-"An American War.
Those who are figuring how the
United States can best aid the Allies
to win their war against the Central
Powers are reckoning without the
President and Congress. He
has said no word of forming a Euro
pean alliance
"The means to attain American
aims are not to lend vast sums, un-
secured, to desperate nations. Read
the Allied peace terms and then think
of America giving her funds and her
sons for the realization of those
aims.
"America needs her funds and her
sons mobiized, organized, prepared
for her own defence

with Germany it will be a war for

Five hundred students are already
following the colors, many of them
overseas. More than fifty will leave
