No more remarkable collection OF
opinions about business conditions has
ever been presented by q newspaper
than those appearing In the symposium
herewith. Remarkable because OF the
large number OF recognized leaders VINO
have here given an expression Of their
views, Il is Of the greatest significance
that men OF affairs, Of all deg ees. are
united In the confident belief that this
country faces an era OF the greatest
prosperity Il has ever known, and
deeply impressive because Of the fact
that conclusions reached are the evil
dent results Of hard reasoning after a
broad survey Of changed world condi-
tlons.
The expressions herewith do not come
from mere optimistic eXuberance or
from an emotional assumption that
nothing but great good ever can come
TO this country. for there is no blinking
here OF the problems that confront US
in the readiustment 10 peace conditions.
The difficulties we shall have TO meet
and overcome are fully recognized and
carefully appraised. Reasonable taxa

Government for cancelled war contracts

ances-all these are recognized as ele-
ments that must receive definite and
conclusive action before the country

The whole world needs our foodstuns'
our raw materials and our manufac-
tured goOds-and also in our own coun-
try the stocks are low; building opera

for all sorts Of American-made machin-
erv. also for motor trucks. made faml-
lar on the battle front, has already ac-
tiyelv and promsingly begun. and
therefore as condition demand that all

Country Faces Greatest

concludes an inspiring review OF con-
ditions with the declaration: I'VE have
I the natural resources; we have we'll

have tried industrial organization with
maryels Of accomplishment to Its
credit; we have splendid banking
machine and stupendous gold reserves +;
the world looks TO us for our products.
Shall problems Of readjustment and re-
construction destroy our progress and
defeat our resolution2 II is inconceiv-
able All that we need Is individual
courage and confidence The belief In

President Mark Potter OF the Caro-
lima, Clinchileld & Ohio Railroad. sends
a ringing message Of optimism. In
which he says: we are entering the
most creditable and prospe Gus era we
have ever known. There is no warrant
for hesitancy or fear II is a splendid
privilege TO live and work In such a
time"
Guided by wise policies, President
Charles II Sabin. Of the Guaranty Trust
Co., New York, foresees America facing
brilliant possibilities, and "our 100000
900 free people, confident OF their
power, conscious OF their righteous
cause, physically strong. morally
sound. tenacious Of purpose and in
spired by high ideals. may face the fu-l
ture not only calmly and bravely. but
also with the joyous anticipation OF ac-
compishing even greater achieve

President J. S. Alexander. OF the Ma

thoughtfully discusses the problems OF
readiustment, but declares: "The Ma

result OF the war and the sudden return
Of peace We feel that the present is
for America an era both Of great prob
lens and great opportunities, to be met
with caution, but at the same time with
confidence"
These are merely samples OF the opin-
ions expressed. Many manufacturers,
from widely separated sections OF the
country Join in the chorus Of optimism,
based on experiences and observations
OF their own, all confirming the belief
that there is ground for nothing but
entire confidence in the greatest pros
perity and activity, industrlally, COM
mercially and in every way, that this
or any other country has ever known.

SERVICE is THE WATCHWORD.

That the Service Citizens Of Delaware

compllsh the purpose for which 1t was
created-service-i evidenced by the
business-like manner in which II has
taken over the Americanlzatlon plan
and the better schools proposal. 1t was
also further proven by a statement
from its general during the
past week that the organization seeks
no credit, no desire 10 serve individual
aims or has no ulterlor motive, but
only the desire to aid and point out
the necessities for making Delaware
the best State In the Union. To this
end we wish them God-sped and urge
every citizen-by this we mean all citi-
zens-to give their undivided support
TO the organization and its program
because It is the peoples and the peo-
pie will be the benenciarles.

pELAwAREs ORGANIZED MILITIA.


From the Milford Chronicle.
The future status Of the militia, or
national guard, In Delaware Is one OF
the uncertainties which cannot be
cleared up until the Congress OF the
United States has enacted laws TO pro-
vide for the future military strength
Of this country, and what system it
shall adopt TO maintain an army Of de-
fense. But In the meantime Delaware
should have some kind Of protection
against riot and great offense against
local government other than through
the local police and constables. We had
as well consider a state cOnstabulary
force now, for that is what will finally
be the basis Of the organized policing
force IN Delaware. Something along
the lines Of the State Constabulary Of
Pennsylvania is an effective force and
will cost but little more than the pres
ent upkeep OF the national guard in
this State.
