THIS MOTOR VEIL ABOVE ALL OTHERS & Wotn' with ;mannish 1 Fturnba out with of agitation, explained by the fact that Americans are prepared to face these crises and will continue to face them as steadily as other, nations have done. Usless all signs fall, wa have reached the beginning of the ebd ia the ‘'worid's greatest tragedy. Turkey 1s practically beaten: Austria is almost impotent; Germany is retreating, and her submarine and Zeppelin methoda of warfare ére a practical fallure, Not & faw. well : ing thelr ascéndaney every Great Britain is at the senith of her power; Russia. has been invigo: by the r¢volution; the French it is higher and stronger than ever, and Italy, too, seerus to have tfken om new energy. Of course, Germany may be able to maintain the struggle longer than expected, but only at the cost of more serious consequences to herself: and the entry of the United States into the war will certainly hasten the end, § Bea Our swn government must at omce decide just what part we shall play:in the great struggle in which we are about to participate. There is no al- ternative; we must co-operate = with the Allies, individual action being im- practical and ‘inadvisable. - The most effective lines of co-operation for the United States would be: (1) a suitable nn}knctlva use of our fleet, which ranks third in the world; (2) furnish- ing financial aid and munitions on a Hberal scale; and (3) the preparation of such an army as we. may be able ta create and utilizse before the gon- flict ends. In all probablility, peace 'will be attained before we could make and transport an army of any con- ]| siderable strength across the Atlantio. The magnitude of such a task is not appreciated by, thése who glibly talk of sending. o\nk &n army of a milljon men. Manths would be required to traln .and equip them, snd the war may be ever before they will be ready. wo and three hundred.voy- ages {4 be necessary fo earry them, d in addition, a great fleet of transports would be employed con- “munitions, food, ete. We could read afford considerable help by the creation of a large mosquito fleet as protection against® submarines, as 'well -as by providing a large a&nd thoroughly up to date aeraplane ser- vice. » Probably the most efficient aid 'we could render the Allles would he in: the centinued making of munitions and In.giving financial ald. We might easily co-operate financially, if our government wouuld lend its credit by eing to take a large block of forelgn bonds, say a billion doltars, fssuing our own in ‘ place thereof.. Such a transaction' would be eminent- 1y sound and safe to the investor, and would” be a simple form of lending the credit of the United States for the purpose of bringing the war to, an early conclusion. . The grand result of the war to the Russian people is worth all it has cost them in blood and treasure, as the Almighty has evidently ordained that it 1s hereafter to be a government after our own hea: f the people, for the people and by the people; and that: other nations) engaged in _the present war may follow the example of Russia is “a consummation de- voutly to be Wished” for the good of the human race. A government that permits of a man like Abraham Lip- coln to rise from the ranks of the common people to become the.great- est leader of the American people, through the great gifts with which God had endowed him, i# a grand and glorious one, and should be an example for all other nations to fol- low. Ameri welcomes . the people of Russia into the fold. 3 If the great powers now engaged in this stupendous struggle at the end of the war will agree to a peace last- ing fifty years, they can so financially redeem themselves as to be able to pay off . within that period their pres- ent entire war Indebtedness through the moneys saved by the reduction of their armaments on land and sea. Indeed, the cost of the present war, it spent for the public good, would make a Garden of Eden of all the countries involved, and would abolish poverty ' during this . generation if used in that benefiicent way. -The decision of the SBupreme Court upholding the constitutionality of the Adamson law will' have far-reaching consequences. ' As it gives cofigress the right and power to regulate both the rallroads and their employes in their functions as quasi-public serv- ants, the decision relleves the govern- ment from an embarassing situation highly critical period, but at se- rious expehise to the rallroads. Doubt- less the government appreciates such 1s g60d reason to’ expect . Interstate Com- merce Comi fon will advance rates sufficient to compensate for these in- creased outlays. g " War preparations will of . course compel intense activity In the muni- #ll jndustry. = Immense quantities f military equipment will have to be all possible .speed. Not a few industrial plants have al- ready been offered to the governmeat, and industrid] mobilization on a stus dous scale will sqon be in active Progress. This meéans & sudden and urgent demand for many ocommodie ties, and, the withdrawal of so many #men from productive employment will natyrally aggravate the scarcity of la- bor and tend to increase wages. During such upheavals more or less friction is inevitable. What the effect upon our foreign trade will be remains ‘to .be seen. Our exports should ocontinue upon a large scale, 1 efforts to supply the Allles with mu- nitions ere maintained. Mobilization of raliroads and industry is well ‘way, and American financiers, I am quite sure, are well 1 POE osnt,, as these ‘would be in deniand for trusteeships and other Y purpéses.
