THE CITY TO THE PRESIDENT. EW YORKERS had their chance yesterday to show the Presi- dent how they feel toward him. They made the most of it. They left him in no doubt. The eurging crowds and thunderous cheere that grected him whenever and wherever he appeard must have convinced him that the biggest city in the country is heart and soul with him. But the kind of welcome New York gave him had a special « nifieance. It was not the welcome of a curious crowd ready to be or to The Prenlag for Fogiand end the Continent ea@ COME ON | WANT To TROBUCE You To WE WOMEN FOLKS , ae noley over a distinguished visitor. It was deep-voiced acclaim, ap- proval, indorsement for the nation’s Chief Executive at a moment when the flag means more than a holiday decoration, when every citizen has a special sense of national unity and inviolatencss, The President felt this. In the course of his luncheon speech, with its assurance that “America aske nothing for herself except what che hase right to ask for humanity itself,” he said: It fe ae startling as it 1s touching to see how whenever you touch a principle you touch the hearts of the people of the United States, © ° °¢ I never go on the streets of a great city without feeling that @omehow I do not confer elsewhere than on the streets with the great epirit of the people themselves, going about their bust: ness, attending to the things that concem them, and yet carry ing a treasure at their hearts all the while, ready to be atirred | not only as individuals but as members of a great unton of Dearts that constitute a patriotic people. ‘Any man who bears great responsibility is the stronger for the outepoken trust and confidence of those he serves. New York was gled at this moment to speak out to the President. ————-42-——____ BANKING WITH UNCLE SAM. ONEY put into Postal Savings Banks in this city last month amounted to more than three times the total for April, 1914. No doubt the war has interrupted thousands of regular remittances to Europe from workers in this country. No doubt much of this money finds its way into the post-office banks. Still, Uncle Sam has some right to feel that the $60,000 a day now placed in his hands here in New York is also a flattering sign of increased faith in his hovesty, sobriety and solvency particularly among the foreign born. He gets two and a half por cent. interest from the bankers to whom he intrusts the money. He allows his own depositors two percent. Which is pretty liberal banking, considering the Al guar- antees and the privileges of deposit and withdrawal he offers. European governments are spending cash faster than they can borrow it. A good many people in Europe feel that sooner or later they will have to either donate their savings or bury them. Uncle Sam’s strong boxes, big and small, are just now the most inviting places in the world into which to empty the stocking.
