When the war broke out, through
surprise and panic we partially gave
up for a while the use OF the sea as
a highway. And the farmers OF
America faced ruin. | know an Iowa
farmer who sold his 1914 crop of 25,-
600 bushels of wheat for seventy cents
a bushel. Farmers In the south sold
their cotton for half the cost OF pro-
ducing it. All this time those Dor.
lions OF the world whose ports were

price for our products. When finally
we set our ships in motion once more.
prosperity returned to the farms. But
1t never returned for the farmers OF
those nations which remained cut OF
from ocean traffic.
Take the case of Australia. There
three crops rave remained unsold on
the farms. No ships could be spared
to make the long voyage to Australia.
SO in spite OF the efforts oil the Gov.
eminent to saw the farmers from
ruin, grain has rotted in the open.
Millions OF tons have been lost for
lack of a market.
Such conditions spell irretrievabie
disaster. Such conditions would have

Mr.. Taft then said there were constI-

siblv it was because he was a lawyer and
given TO the study of constitutions law
that the feeling struck him, he said, but
when he read the Presidents appeal he
was shocked when he realized what he
said was the confusion IN the Presidents

for the damage and ruin and losses or the

summing these matters up, "do you, as

THE GERMAN CORRESPONDENCE.
Mr. Taft then went over the recent
exchange of notes with Germany. lie
declared that the first note of Mr.. Wilson s
had sent a shiver down the spine of the
American people and when Nrermany
accepted the Wilsonian peace basis as
outlined before the note referring the

there could be no meeting of minds such

THE AFTERwARD.
Mr.. Taft next turned to after-the-war,
and set forth his views as To why there
should be Republican majority at Wash
ington when that time arrives. The
present administration, he said, had had
voted to it more money than ahy other IN
the history of the country, for which there
must be an accounting, since il placed n
burden on the country to the fourth and
fifth generation The nation has the right

AS to reconstruction. this is matter
which requires craftsmanship of a high
order. high ideals and n knowledge OF
human nature, and the speaker could not
see these things forthcoming from n
Democratic Congress.
Such Congress, he emphasized, !,
would simply and solely register the will
of the President Why? Well, the
discipline the President has exercised
over recalcitrant Democrats Is known of
all men. Their constituents have been
advised by letters more clear than the
