SUPPORT
NOW ERA FOR BUSINESS
OF NATION IS AT HAND,
PRESIDENT
Made Possible By Tariff and
Reserve Act and Shipping Bill, He Tells National
Grain Dealers' Association Purpose of Legislation
Is to Make Clear What
strictions of , Trade Are
Baltimore.
Baltimore, Sept. ' 26 In a speecn
strikingly devoid of partisan political
discussion, President Wilson conveyed
a message to the business men of
the country before the National Asso
ciation of Grain Dealers here yes
terday. More than 15,000 persons had
applied for tickets of admission, 'but
the hall would accommodate only 3,
800. . At the station and as the
President and Mrs. Wilson motored
through the streets crowds oheered.l
His speech was enthusiastically re
ceived, the demonstration as he anose
lasting for(four minutes. v
The' President declared that through
the new Tariff Commission, the Trade
Commission, the Federal Reserve Act,
the Shipping Bill arid similar-measures,
he expected business men in this
country to open up a new era for the
Nation, j , ' -' ' ' " ?
i To Make Trade Path Clear. .
"The .purpose of legislation in the
immediate future in this country," l(ie
said, ."Is going to -be to remove" all
ingenious constructions arid make if
perfectly clear what the liberties as
well as what the restrictions of trade
are in this country." -i;
Regretting that politics might inter.
fere ,withthe discussion of problems
facing American business, he declared
he had "a'-supreme contempt for par
tisan action' although believing . in
"party action," he urged that his au
dience divest itself of "the conscious
ness that -"we . are in the midst of (a
political campaign."
t
'We have swung out into . a new
business era !n Anierica,f said the
President. "American ! production
has Increased to such a Volume that
American business' burst its jacket. It
could not any longer toe taken care of
within the field of the domestic mar
kets and when that began to dis
close itself as the situation, we also
became aware that American business
men had hot studied foreign markets;
that they did not know the commerce
of the, world, and that they did not
have the ships in which to take teir
proportionate part in the carrying
trade of t.he world; that dur merchant
marine had sunk to its lowest at the
very time when the tide of our ex
ports began to grow in most formida
ble volume. , '. ' '. '' ' )
' Benefits of Reserve Act :. y
, "One1 of tfhe most interesting cir
cumstances ' of our business history- is
this:. The banking laws of the United
States I mean the Federal Banking
laws did not put the national banks
in a position to do foreign exchange
under favorable' conditions. Not until
the ' recent ,1 egislation of Congress,
known, as the Federal. Reserve Act,
were the Federal Banks of this coun
try , given the proper , equipment
through which they could - assist
American commerce, not only in our
own country, but in any part of the
world where they choose to set up
branch , institutions.
"British' banks had been serving
British merchants all over the world.
German banks; had been serving Ger
man mercnanLs an over me worm,
and no national bank of the United
States had 1 been .. serving American
merchants, anywhere in the world ex
cept in the United States. ,
. 'All that Is past, and the scene has
been changed by the events ' of the
lat two years, almost suddenly, and
with a completeness that almost
daunts the planning-mind. - Not only
wben the war is over lut hw, Amerl
a has her place in fhe world, and
takes her place in the world of finance
and commerce upon a scale that she
never dreamed of before. 1
"My dream is that she win take her
place in that great field in a' hew spir
it, which the world has never seen
before; not the spirit of those who
would, exclude others, but the spirit
of those who would excell' others. I
want to see 'America pitted against
the world, not in selfishness but in
brains." , '
m Referring to the work of the Bu
reau of Foreign! and Domestic Com
merce, President Wilson paid high
tribute to the men who sacrifice large
salaries in the . business world "to
serve the Government on a pittance.,
"There was recently created the
Federal Trade Commission," he con
tinued. "It is hard to describe the
functions of that commission, but it
has transformed the' Government of
the United States from being an an
tagonist of business into being a friend
of business. -
t'A few years ago American business
men I think you will corroborate
this statement took up their morntng
paper with some degree of nervous
ness1 to see what the Government was
doing to them. I ask you if you take
up the morning psper now with any
degree of nervousness? And I ask you
If you' have not found .those of you
who have dealt with it at all, the Fed
eral Trade. Commission to be put there
to show you the way in which the
Government can help you and not the
way1 in which the Government can
hinder you? ' , .
"But. that Is not .the matter that
I am most Interested In. It has al
ways been a fiction that there was a
contest between the law and business.
There (has always been a contest in
every government between the law
and baid business, and I do not want
to see that contest softened In any
way; but there has never been any
contest between men who'intended the
right thing and the men who adminis
tered the law.
To Seek Fats on Tariff.
"You know that we have just now
done what it was common sense to do
about, the Tariff. We have not put
this into words, but I do not hesitate
to put it into words.-" We have ad
mitted that on the one side and on the
other 'we were talking theories and
managing policies without a sufficient
knowledge of the facts upon which
we were acting, and, therefore, we
have establishe.d what is Intended to
be a non-partisan tariff commission to
study the conditions with which leg
islation haB to deal In the matter of
the relations of American with f or-

elgn business transactions. !
"Another eye created to see the
facts and state them, no matter whose
opinion those facts contradict.
"We must co-operate in the field
of business. The government with
the merchant, the merchant with his
employe, the whole body of producers
with the whole body ot consumers to
see that the right things are produced
in the right volume and And the right
purchasers at the right place, and
that all, working together, we realize
that- nothing can be for the comon
benefit which is not for the individual
benefit.
"There was introduced in the House
Of Representatives recently a bill call
d the Webb bill for the purpose of
stating it as the policy of the law of
the United States that nothing in the
Anti-Trust laws should be Interpreted
to Interfere with the proper sort of
co-operation among exporters. The
foreign field is not like , the domestic
field. The foreign field is full of com
binations, meant to be exclusive. -
, , For Export Combines. V
"The anti-trust laws are intended to
prevent any kind of combination
which shall be exclusively of new en
terprises within the United States, any
combination which shall set up mo

complicated business, a very expensive
business, and it ought to be possible,
and it will be possible and legal for
men engaged in exporting to get to
gether and manage it in groups, so
that they can manage it at an' ad
vantage instead of at a disadvantage
as compared with foreign rivals; not
for the purpose of exclusive and mo
nopolistic combination, but for the
purpose of co-operation. ' ' ,
i"I 'despise monopoly, and I have' an
enthusiasm for co-operation. By co
operation I mean working along with
anybody who is willing to wdrk along
with you 'under definite understand
ings and arrangements which will con
stitute a j sound , business program.
There can be no jealousy of that, and
if there had' been time I can say with
confidence that this bill which passed
the . House pf Representatives would
-have passed' the Senate also. , So that
any obstacle that ingenious lawyers
may find In the anti-trust laws will be
removed. . ' t ' (
- 'Urges Aid of Shippers.'
1 ' "And then there must be co-operation,
not only between the govern
ment and the business man, but be
tween the business men. Shippers
must co-operate, and they ought to be
studying riht now how to co-operate.
We mush address ourselves 'immedi
ately and 'as rapidly as possible to the
recreation, of a great American mer
chant marine. 1
"Foreign vessels , carry our , goods
where they, the foreign vessels, nap
Den tol be going, and they carry them
only if thejf have room in addition to
what they are carrying for other peo-
pie.
! "There has been a good deal of dis
cussion about this recently, and It has
been said the Government must noi
take any direct part in this. Tou must
let private capital do it, and the reply
was 'All right, go ahead, but we will
not go ahead unless you help us we
said, "very well,- then, we - will go
ahead, but we will not ; need your
heln-. because we -do not want to com
pete where you are already doing the
carrying business, but where you are
not doing the carrying business and
it has to be dope for some time at a
loss. ' ' '
" We will undertake to do it at a,
loss until that" route is established
and we will give place to private capl.
tal whenever private capital is ready
to take the place. That sounds like a
very reasonable proposition. 'We will
carry your goods one way wnen we
have to come back empty and lose
money on the voyage, and when there
are cargoes both ways and It 1b profit
able to carry them, we shall not insist
upon carrying them any longer.'
"And It Is absolutely necessary now
to make good our new connections.
Our new connections are with the
great and rich republics to the south
of, us. For the first time in my re
collection they are beginning to trust
and believe in us and want us, and one
of my chief concerns has been to-see
that nothing was done that! did not
show friendship and good faith on
our part. 1 .
"The real wealth ' of foreign rela
tionships, whether they be the rela
tionships of trade or any other kind
of intercourse, the real wealth of those
relationships is the wealth of mutual
Confidence and Understanding. If we
do not understand them and they do
not understand us, we cannot trade
with them, much less be their friends.
"There is only one thing I have
ever been ashamed about in America,
and that was the timidity and fear
fulness of Americans in the presence
of foreign competitors. I know by
personal experience that there ar as
effective brains in America as Any
where in the world. Enterprise, the
shrewdness which Americans have
shown, the knowledge of business
which- they have shown, all these
things are going to make for that
peaceful and 'honorable conquest of
foreign markets which Is our reason

"We are going to be. I hope, what
the world has never seen yet a body
of men who do not want to prevail by
the backing of their government, but
by the backing of their skill and
knowledge.
I Mission of America.
"America has stood in the years past
for that sort of political understand
ing among men which would let every
man feel that his rights were the same
as those of another and as good as
those of another, and the mission of
America in the field of the world's
commerce Is to be the same, that when
