Edgerton Tells Business
Men of Sharp Competi-
tion Abroad
SAYS CONDITIONS
ARE NOT SURPRISE

In an address before the Joint
meeting OF the Manufacturers and
Employers Association in the du-
Barry room of the Hotel dupont last
evening, J. e. Edgerton. a manufac-
'turer Of Tennessee, and president Of
the National Association OF Manu-
facturers. told OF the responsibility
that now lies before the manufactur-
ers of this country and their oppor-
tunity to take part in the adjustment
OF business that is being carried
forward.
Nearly a hundred prominent man
ufacturers of Delaware we're pres
ent representing practically every
large industry in the State. c. ID.
Garretson, general manager of the
Electric Hose and Rubber Company,
president OF the Manufacturers AS
ISOLATION, presided. At the speak
er's table were Alexander F. Crichton.
Of the Wilmington Mills; W. B. Me-
gear, Sylvester d. Townsend Jr.,
j. j. Satterthwait, president OF
the Remington Machine Company,
and Joseph Bancroft president OF
the Joseph Bancroft and Sons Com
pany.
Il can see nothing extraordinary in
the present business situation" said
Mr.. Edgerton. beyond what might
have been expected as result Of
conditions during the last fve or six
years. During four years Of that time
the entire world had been engaged
In the business OF destruction.
AT the present time America has
practically everything that is need
ed. She possesses 65 per cent Of the
gold supply OF the world; she con-
trols nearly one-haif OF the food
supply and about one-third Of the
entire wealth of the world
Mr.. Edgerton remarked that 1t
seemed as il the nation ought to be
satisfied with this, and then pointed

American self-reliance might keep
us from improving our political ma
chinery; but in Modern Democra-
cies," published last year, he rejoiced
over many signs that the sense Of
public duty has grown stronger and
that the standards of public life are
rising"
His books on the United States and
other republics will be the most last
ing monument OF James Bryce, al
though they were only a part OF the
lifework OF this most intelligent and
industrious scholar. He was himself
a great democrat; his whole political
life reflects the fact. That is why he
could understand democracy and
patiently examine every detail OF its
government and its people.
The study OF the United States
made by James Bryce resulted most
fortunately for the relations between
this country and his. The American
people. being so well known by the
essayist, came to feel that they knew
him as intimately. Naturally, when
Great Britain sent Bryce as Ambas-
sador to Washington in the Roose-
welt Administration IL was like the
return of an old and dear friend. OF
course Mr. Bryce was successful at
this post. His intellect. his tact, his
knowledge OF and sympathy with
America made him the ideal envoy
In American eyes he was higher than
any title could raise him. Long at
ter he had been elevated 20 the peer
age this country still thought of him
affectionately as James Bryce, its
discerning critic, wise counselor and
enduring friend.
England has lost a great states
man and scholar. but Americas loss
is, in a way. more intimate. For in
the years to come. when James Bryce
is remembered for only one of his
many accomplishments. that one will
be his review OF this republic and
its people.

Viscount Bryce. who died on Sun

to make the United States plain 10
the rest OF the world. Tocaueville
earlier had described the workings
of the American democracy; but
there was a great stretch of progress
between this time and the time of
James Bryce. The young republic
had gone far between the 30s,, when
the Frenchman saw us, and the '70s
and SOS, when the British scholar
began his American inspection.
What is even more important in
the way Of real benefit to this coun-
try, Bryce's picture of American gov

THE PRESIDENTS ADDRESS
TO THE FARMERS

TO THE FARMERS
From the New York. Herald.
Tho Presidents address yesterday
on the opening Of the Farm Confer
ence breathed warm interest in and
sympathy for farmers and the farm
ing industry. II threw on the screen
a very complete picture OF that in
dustrye II told of the many-sided
man the farmer must be and the
many difhculties that confront him
in his possession. II urged better
transportation facilities for farm
products and recommended coop
GRAFTON in the farmers purchases
and the farmers disposal of the
things he has 20 sell
II advocated the reclamation for
agricultural purposes Of swamp
lands and che arid lands OF the West.
II stressed the warm desire OF the
President that better financial
system be developed for the farmer
"a system that shall make money
more easily available for the farmer
and on longer credits.
All this is good. and what he told
the conference OF the position Of the
farmer, OF his place in history ana
his work during the war. OF the vi
tally important part he plays in the
life of the nation is equally good and
interesting.
The speech as a whole, while not
definite and convincing as 10 spe-

President so earnestly desires. and
that all well-minded and appreeia'
