cision of the senate with regard to the
terms of the peace.
Il venture thus again to urge my adj
Vice that the action Of the senate with
regard to the treaty be taken at the
earliest practicable moment, because
the problems with which we are face to
face in the readtustment Of u national
life are OF the most pressing and crit
ieal In character, will require for their
proper solution the most intimate and
disinterested cooperation Of AL par
ties and all interests and can not be
postponed without manifest peril to our
people and to all the national adyan-
tages we hold most dear. May | mem
tion a few Of the matters which can not
be handled with intelligence until the
country knows the character Of the
peace 1t is to have2 | do so only by a
very few samples.
THE copper mines OF Montana and.
Alaska, for example, are being kept
open and In operation only at a great
cost and loss, in. part upon borrowed
money; the zinc mines Of Missouri, Ten
nessee and Wisconsin are being oper-
ated at about one-half their capacity;
the lead of Idaho, Illinois aud Missouri
reaches only "A portion Of its former
market; there is an immediate need for
cotton betting, and also for lubricating
oil which ran not be met-all because
the channels Of trade are barred by
war when there is no war. The same
is true Of raw cotton, Of which the cen
trial empires alone formerly purchased
nearly four million bales. And these
are only examples. There il hardly a
single raw material. a single important
foodstuff, or a single class OF manufac-
tured goods which Is not in the same
case. Our full, normal profitable pro-
duCtion waits on peace.

When Life Grows Broader.

God does not count prosperity rs
we count II. Our sense of proportion
Is largely shaped by our experiences
When life is quiet and sheltered, and
the stream runs smoothly, we notice
every ripple and magnify every small
obstruction. We are fully occupied
with our work. our small worries,
Then comes some grief, calamity, or
new responsibility which suddenly
changes everything. Our old Interests
are dwarfcd and look so petty that we
wonder that we ever allowed such
trInes to burden our souls. BY such
experiences life grows broader and
higher and takes on new values. We
have new standards of measurement
for our fellow men as well ms our
selves.

rather insncerlty. His life was false.

their faults; grievous enough were
some of them. but for the most part
