It cannot be utered plainly or too often. “From every point of view the fore, it has seemed to be my duty to epeak these declarations of purpose to add these specific interpretations which 1 took the liberty of saving to the senate in January. Our entrance into the war has not altered our atti- tude towards the settlement that must come when it is over. When I said in Junuary that the nations of the world were entitled not only to free path. ways on the sea but also to assured and unmolested access to these path- waps I w thinking, and I am think- ing now, not of the smaller and wealk- er nations alpne. which neced our coun- tenance and support but also of the great and powerful nations and of our present enemies as well as our pres- ent associates in the war. 1 was thinking, and am thinking now of Aus- tria herself’ among the rest, as well as of Serbia and of Poland. Justice and equality of rights can be had only at a great price. We are sceking pr- manent, not temporary, foundation for the peace of the world and must seek them candidly and fearlessly. As al- sways, the right will prove to be the; expeditent. “What shall we do then, to push this great war of freedom and justice to its righteous conclusion? We must clear away with a thorough hand all impediments to success and we must make every adjustment of law that will facilitate full and free use to our whole capacity and force a fighting unit. ‘One very that too embars = c tands in our way is that we are r with Germany but not with her allies. T therefore very earnestly recommend that congress immediately declare the United States in a state of wart with. Austria-Hungary. Does it seem strange that this should be tho conclusion of the argument I have just addressed to you. It is not in fact the logic of what I have saic. Austria-Hungary is for the time being not her own mistress, but simply the vassal of tlie German government. We must face the facts as are and act upon them without sentiment in this stern business. The government ustria-Hungary is not acting up- on its own initiative or in response to the wishes and feelings of its own po- ples but as the instrument of another nation. We must meet its force with our own and regard the central pow- as but one. The war can he suc- ully conducted in no other way. ame logic would lead also to a declaration of war against Turkey and Bulgaria. They also are the tools of Germany. But they are mere tools and do not yvet stand in the direct path of our necessary action. We shall go wherever the nccessities of this war carry us, but it seems to me that we should go only where imme- diate and practical considerations lead ps and not heed any others. The financial and military m ures which must e adopted will st zest themselves the war and undertakings develop but [ will take the liberty of proposing to you cer other acts of legislation which seem to be neceded for the support of the war and of the release of our whole force and energ: It will be necessary to extend in cer- tain particulars fhe legislation of the with regard to alien ene mies, also necessary T belicve to create a very definite and particular control over the entrance and depart- ure of ail persons into and from the United States “Legislation should be enacted defining as a criminal offense every wilful vain of the presidential proc- lamations relating to cnemy aliens promulgated under section 4067 of the revised statutes and providing appro- priate punishments; and ‘women as well as men should be included under the terms of the acts placing restraints upon alien enemies. It is likely that as time goes on many alien chemies will be willing to be fed and housed at the expense of the government in the detention camps and it will be the purpose of the legislation I have sug- gested to confine offenders among them in penitentiaries and other sim- ilar institutions where they could be made to work as other criminals do. “Recent experience has convinced me that the congress must go further in authorizing the government to set limits to prices. The law of s y and demand, T am sorry to say, been replaced by the law of unre- strained selfishness. While we have climinated profiteering in al branches of the industr; still runs impudently rampant in others. The farmers, for example, complain with a great deal of justice that, while the regulation of food prices restricts their incomes, no restraints are placed upon the prices of most of the things they must themselves purchase: and simi- lar inequities obtain on all sides. Tt is imperatively necessary that the consideration of the full use of the water\power of the country and also the consideration of the svstematic and yet economical development of | such of the natural resources of the country as are still under the control of the federal government should be resumed and affirmatively and con- ructively dealt with at the earliest possible moment. The pressing need legislation is daily becoming more obvious. Phe legislation proposed at the last session with regard to regulated com- binations among our exporters. in or- der to provide for our foreign trade a more effecsfve organization also meth- 0d of co-operation ought by all means he completed at this session and T beg [ that the members of the house will permit me to express the opinion that it will he impossible to deal in any way by a very wasteful and extrava- gant fashion with the enormous appro- priations of the public moneys which must continue to be made if the war is to be properly supported, unless the house will consent to return to its for- mer practice of initiating and pre- paving all appropriation bills through a single committee, in order that re- seve | operation of -the } morning sponsibility may be cgntered, expendi- tures standardized and made uniform and waste and duplication as much as possible avoided. “Additional legislation may also be- come necessary beforc the present congress adjourns in order te effect the most efficient co-ordination and railway and other transportation systems of the country, but to that I shall if .circumstance demand, call the attntion of congress upon another occasion. What I am perfectly clear about is that in the present session our and energy should ,be consecrated on the vigorous and rapid and successful prosecution of the- great tank of winning the war. “We can do this with all the greater zeal and enthusiasm because we know that for us this is a war of principle, debased by no selfish am- bition of conquest or spoilation, be- cause we. Know, and. all the world knows, that we have ‘heen forced into it to save the very institutions live under from, corruption and des- truction. The purposes of the Central powers strike straight at the very heart of cverything we believe in: their methods of, warfare outrage every brinciple of humanity and of knightly honor, their intrigue has corrupted the very thought and spirit of many of our people: their sinister and secret diplomacy has sought lake our very territory away us and disrupt the union of states. Our safety would be at end, our honor forever sullied brought into contempt weré¢ we permit their triumphs. They striking at the very existence of macracy and liberty. Tt is because it is for us a war of high, disinterested purpose, in which all the free peoples of the world are banded together for the vindication of right, a war for the preservation of our nation and of ail that it has held dear of principle and of pur- that we feel ourselves doubly constrained to propose for its out- come only that which is ruinous to us and of irreproachable intention, for our foes as well as for our friends. The cause being just and holy, the settlement must be.of like motive and quality. For this we can fight, but for nothing less noble or less worthy of our traditions. For this cause we entered the war and for this cause will we battle until the last gun is fired. I have spoken plainly because this seems to me the time when it is most necessary to speak plainly, in order that all the world may know that even in the hate and ardor of the Atruggle and when our whole thought is of carrying the war through to its end, or principle for America been among the nations and for which has been our glory to contend in the great generations that went before us. A supreme moment of history has come. The eyes of the people have heen opened and they sec. The hand of God is laid upon nations. He will show them favor. I devoutly believe only if they rise to the clear heights of His own justice and mercy.
