Regular Army of 141,843, Supplemented by Force of 400,000
Trained Citizens Is Urged Gravest Menace to the Peace
of the-Country Comes from Disloyal Foreign-Born
Citizens Plan for Larger Navy Outlined.
Washlnnton. Pec. 7. President Wilson
today delivered hi annual message at a
lolnt session of the two houses ut edi
tress, lie aald In part:
Hincs 1 laat had the privilege of ad
Iresslns; you on the stata of the Union
the war of natlnna on the other aide of
the sea, which had then only begun to
liscloae-lts portentoua proportions, haa
intended Ita threatening and sinister acope
nttl It haa awept within Ita flume aome
portion of every quarter of the globe, not
ixoeptlng our hemisphere, haa altered the
irhole fare of International Affair, and
bow presenta a prospect of teorganlza
tlon and reconstruction such aa altea
vien and peoplea have never been called
ipon to attempt before.
We have atood apart, studiously neutral.
It was our manlfeat duty to do so. In
lha day of readjustment and recupera
tion we earnestly hope and believe that
we ton be of Infinite aervlce.
In this neutrality, to which they were
eluden not only by their separate life and
their habitual detachment from the poli
tic of Europe but also by a clear per
leptlon of International duty, tin states
f America have become conscious of a
oew and more vital community of Inter
tat and moral partnership In affairs, more
slearly conscious of the many common
lympatlilea and Interests and duties which
Id them stand together.
We have been put to the teat In the case
f Mexico, and we have stood the test.
Whether we have benefited Mexico by
the course we have pursued remains to
ke seen. Her fortunes are in her own
bands. But we have at least proved that
we will not take advantage of her In her
tlstresa and undertake to impose upon
her an order and government of our own
.(boosing.
We will aid and befriend Mexico, but
we will not coerce her; and our course
with regard to her ought to be sufficient
proof to all America that we seek no po
litical auxeralnty or aeltlsh control.
Not Hostile Rivals.
The moral la. that the states of Amer
ica are not hostile rivals, but co-operating
friends, and that their growing
sense of community of Interest, alike in
matters political and in matters econom
ic. Is likely to give them a new signifi
cance aa factors In International affaire
and Id the political history of the world.
It presents them as In a very deip and
true sense a unit In world affairs, spir
itual partners, standing together because
thinking together, quick with common
ympathles and common Idéala. Separat
td, they are subject to all the cross cur
rents of the confused politics of a world
of hostile rivalries; united in spirit and
purpose they cannot be disappointed of
their peaceful destiny.
This Is Pan-Americanism. It has none
of the spirit of empire in it. It Is the em
bodiment, the effectual embodiment, of
the spirit of law and Independence and
liberty and mutual service.
' There la, I venture to point out. an espe
cial significance Just now attaching to
, this whole matter of drawing the Amer
icas together In bonds of honorable part
nership and mutual advantage because of
Ihe economic readjustments which the
world must Inevitably witness within the
next generation, when peace shall have
at laat resumed Its healthful tasks. In
the performance of these tasks I believe
the Americas to be destined to play their
parts together. I am interested to fix
your attention on this prospect now be
cause unless you take it within your
view and permit the full significance of
It to command your thought I cannot
.And the right light In which to set forth
the particular matter that lies at the
very front of my whole thought as I ad
dress you today. I mean national de
fense.
f Might to Maintain Right.
Out f such thoughts grow all our poli
cies. We regard war merely as a means
of asserting the rights of a people agalnat
aggression. And we are aa fiercely Jeal
ous of coercive or dictatorial power with
in our own nation as of aggression from
without. We will not maintain a stand
ing army except for uses which are aa
necessary In times of peace as In times
of war; and we shall always see to It
that our military peace establishment Is
no longer than la actually and continuous
ly needed for the uses of days In which
no enemies move against us. But we
do believe In a body of free citizens ready
and sufficient to take care of themselves
and of the governments which they have
set up to serve them. In our constitutions
themselves we have commanded that "the
right of the people to keep and bear
arms ahall not be Infringed," and our
confidence has been that our safety In
times of danger would lie In the rlblng of
the nation to take care of Itself, as the
farmers rose at Lexington.
But war has never been a mere matter
of men and guns. It s a thing of disci
plined might. If our citizens are ever to
fight effectively upon a sudden summons.
they must know how modern fighting is
done, and what to do when the summons
comes to render themselves Immediately
available and Immediately effective. And
the government must be their servant in
this matter, must supply them with the
training they need to take care of them
selves and of It The military arm of their
government, which tiey will not allow to
direct them, they may properly use to
serve tbem and make their Independence
secure and not their own Independence
merely but the lights also of those with
whom they have made common cause.
should they also be put in Jeopardy.
They must be fitted to play the great
role In the world, and particularly In this
hemisphere, for which they are quail
fled by principle and by chastened ambi
tion to play.
It la with thee Ideals In mind that the
plana of the department of war for more
adequate national defense were conceived
which will be laid before you, and which
I urge you to sanction and put Into ef
fect aa Boon as they can be properly ecru
1 1 nixed and discussed. They seem to me
the essential first ateps. and they seem
to me for the present sufficient.
They contemplate an Increase of the
standing force of the regular army from
AFFECTION THAT NEVER DIES
Old Friends Have a Place In the Heart
From Which They Never Can
Be Removed.
As to old Mends, they are like old
shoes, an abiding comfort and a great
solace. If they have not been tried In
extremity they have been tested by
time and Its mutations, and t by the
wear of years. There is little more
beautiful In human experience than
long-sustained friendships between
VALSOirS MESSAGE
I
Its present strength of ft.P?3 officers and
10S.IWS enlisted men of all services to a
strength of 7.138 officers and 134.707 en
listed men, or 141,841, all told, all serv
ices, rank and file, by the addition of 62
companies of coast artillery, 16 com
panies of engineers, ten regiments of in
fantry, four regiments of field artillery,
and four aero squadrons, besides 7Wi offi
cers (required for a great variety of extra
Service, especially the all-Important duty
of training the citizen force of which I
shall presently speak, 792 non-commls-slnned
officers for service in drill, recruit
ing and the like, and the necessary quota
of enlisted men for the quartermaster
corps, the hospital corps, the ordnance
department and other similar auxiliary
services. These are the additions neces
sary to render the army adequate for Its
present duties, duties which It haa to
perform not only upon our own conti
nental coasts and borders and at our In
terior army posts, but also In the Phil
ippines, In the Hawaiian Islands, at the
Isthmus, and In Porto Illco.
Force of Trained Citizens.
By way of making the country rendy
to assert some part of its real power
promptly and upon a larger scale, should
occasion arise the plan also contemplates
supplementing the army by a force of
400,000 disciplined citizens, raised In Incre
ments of 133.000 a year throughout a pe
riod of three yeara. This It Is proposed
to do by a process of enlistment under
which the serviceable men of the coun
try would be asked to bind themselves to
serve with the colors for purposes of
training for short periods throughout
three years, and to come to the colors
at call at any time throughout an addi
tional "furlough" period of three years.
This force of 400.000 men would be pro
vlded with personal accoutrements as fast
as enlisted and their equipment for the
field made ready to be supplied at any
time. They would be assembled for train
Ing at atated Intervals at convenient
places In association with suitable units
of the regular army. Their period of
annual training would not necessarily ex
ceed two months In the year.
It would depend upon the patriotic feel
ing of the younger men of the countrv
whether they responded to such a call
to service or not. It would depend upon
the patriotic spirit of the employers of
the country whether they made It possi
ble for the younger men In their em
ploy to respond under favorable condl
tlons or not. I, for one, do not doubt
the patriotic devotion either of our young
men or of those who give them employ
ment those for whose benefit and proteo.
tlon they would in 'fact enlist. I would
look forward to the success of such
experiment with entire confidence.
At least so much by way of prepara
tion for defense seems to me to be ab
solutely Imperative now. We cannot do
lesa.
Program for the Navy.
The program to be laid before you con
templates the construction within five
years of 10 battleships. 6 battle cruis
ers. 10 scout cruisers. 60 destroyers. 16
fleet submarines, 86 coast submarines,
four gunboats, one hospital ship, two
ammunition ships, two fuel-oil ships and
one repair ship. It la proposed that of
this number we shall the first year pro
vide fur the construction of two battle
shins, two battle cruisers, three scout
cruisers, 16 destroyers, five fleet sulunu
rtnes. 25 coast submarines, two gunboats
and one hospital ship: the second year,
two battleships, one scout cruiser, ten
destroyers, four fleet submarines, 15 coast
submarines, one gunboat, and one fuel-
oil ship; the third year, two battleships,
one battle cruiser, two scout cruisers, five
destroyers, two fleet submarines, and 15
coast submarines; the fourth year, two
battleships, two battle cruisers, two
scout cruisers, ten destroyers, two fleet
submarines. 16 coast submarines, one am
munition ship, and one fuel-oil ship: and
the fifth year, two battleships, one battle
cruiser, two scout cruisers, ten destroy
ers, two fleet submarines, 16 coast subtna
rtnes, one gunboat, one ammunition amp
and one repair ship.
The secretary of the navy Is asking
also for the Immediate addition to the
personnel of the navy of 7,6 sailors.
2.500 apprentice seamen, ana l.tiuu marinea.
This Increase would be sufficient to care
for the ships which are to be completed
within the fiscal year 1917 and also for
the number of men which must be put In
training to man the ships which will be
completed early In 1918. It 1b also necea
aary that the number of midshipmen at
the naval academy at Annapolis snouia
be Increased by at least SuO In order that
the force of officers should be more rap
idly added to: and authority la asked to
appoint for engineering duties only, ap
proved graduates of engineering colleges,
and for service In the aviation corps
certain number of men taken from civil
life.
If this full program should be carried
out we should have built or building In
1921. according to the estimates of surviv
al and standards of classification followed
bv the general board of the department.
an effective navy consisting of 27 battle
ships of the first line, six battle cruisers.
25 battleships of the second line, ten ar
mored cruisers. 13 scout cruisers, five
first-class cruisers, three second-class
cruisers, ten third-class cruisers, K de
trovers. 18 fleet submarines. 157 coast sub.
marines, six monitors, 20 gunboats, four
supply ships. 18 fuel ships, four trans
ports, three tenders to torpedo vessels,
eight vessels of special types, and two
ammunition ships. This would be a navy
fitted to our needs and worthy of our
traditions.
Trade and Shipping.
But armies and instruments of war are
only part of what has to be considered
If we are to consider the supreme matter
of national sef-sutriclency and security
In all its aspects. There are other great
matters which will be thrust upon our at
tention whether we will or not. There
Is, for example, a very pressing question
of trade and shipping Involved In this
great Droblera of national adequacy. It
is necessary for many weighty reasitps of
women grown far into the years, for
example, and yet who have maintained
their communion of dreams and con
fidences unbroken and unspoiled.
There la little more refreshing to con
template than friendships between
middle-aged or old men that have ex
isted in strength and harmony from
boyhood days. Other friendships have
these folks of the passing generation,
some of them true, some of tbem
tried, but none of them as richly re
garded and highly treasured as the
old ones. For necessarily there are
nstlnml efficiency and development that
should have a great merchant ma
rine. The great merchant fleet we once
used to make us rich, that great body of
sturdy stitlor who used to carry our flits
Into every sea, and who were the pride
and often the bulwark of the nation, we
have almost driven out of existence tv
Inexcusable neglect and Indifference and
by a hopelessly blind and provincial pol
icy of so-called eronomlc protection. It
is high time we repaired our mistake and
resumed our commercial Independence on
the sees.
For It Is a question of Independence.
If other nations go to war or seek to
hamper enrh other's commerce, our mer
chants, it seems, are at their mercy,
to do with as they please. We must use
their ships, and use them as they ileter
mlne. We have not ships enough of our
own. We cannot handle our own com
merce on the seas. Our Independence is
provincial, and Is only on land and with
in our own borders. We are not Ilkeiy
to be permitted to tise even the ships of
other nations In rivalry of their own
trade, and are without means to extend
our commerce even where the doors are
wide open and our goods desired. Ruch
situation is not to be endured. It Is
of capital Importance not only that the
I nlted States should be Its own carrier
on the seas and. enjoy the economic In
dependence which only an adequate mer
chant marine would give It, but also that
the American hemisphere as a whole
should enjoy a like Independence and self-
sufficiency. If It is not to be drawn Into
the tangle of Ruropean affairs. Without
such Independence the whole question of
our political unity and self-determination
la very seriously clouded and complicated
Indeed.
Moreover, we can develop no true or ef
fective American policy without ships of
our own not ships of war. but ships of
peace, carrying goods and carrying much
more: creating friendships and render
ing Indispensable services to all Interests
on this side of the water. They must
move constantly back and forth hetween
the Americas. They are the only shuttles
that can weave the delicate fabric of
sympathy, comprehension, confidence and
mutual dependence In which we clothe
our policy of America for Americana,
Ships Are Needed.
With a view to meeting these pressing
necessities of our commerce and availing
ourselves at the earliest possible moment
of the present unparalleled opportunity of
linking the two Americas together in
bonds of mutual interest and service, an
opportunity which may never return
again If we miss it now, proposals will
be made to the present congress for the
purchase or construction of ships to be
owned and directed by the government
similar to those made to the last con
gress, but modified In some essential par
tlculars. I recommend these propnsnls
to you for your prompt acceptance with
the more confidence because every month
that has elapsed since the former pro
posáis were made has made the necessity
for such action more and more maul
festly Imperative.
Question of Finance.
The plans for the armed forces of the
nation which I have outlined, and for
the general policy of adequate prepara
tlon for mobilization and defense. In
volve of course very large additional ex
penditures of money expenditures which
will considerably exceed the estimated
revenues of the government. It is made
my duty by law, whenever the estimates
of expenditure exceed the estimates of
revenue to call the attention of the con
gress to the fact and suggest any means
of meeting the deficiency that It may be
wise or possible for me to suggest. 1 am
ready to believe that It would be my duty
to do so In any case; and I feel particu
larly bound to speak of the matter when
It appears that the deficiency will arise
directly out of the adoption by the con
gress of measures which I myself urge
it to adopt. Allow me, therefore, to
speak briefly of the present state of the
treasury and of the fiscal problems
which the next year will probably dli
close.
On the thirtieth of June last there was
an available balance In the general fund
of the treasury of JlO4,170,105.78. The to
tal estimated receipts for the year 1916,
on the assumption that the emergency
revenue measure passed by the last con
gress will not be extended beyond "Us
present limit, the thirty-first of Decem
ber, 1916. and that the present duty of
one cent per pound on sugar will be dis
continued after the first or May, in.
will be HO, 366, 500. The balance of June
last and these estimated revenues come,
therefore, to a grand total of $774,535,(106 7K.
The total estimated disbursements for the
present fiscal year. Including 126,000,000
for the Panama canal. 12,oiifl,0OU for prob
able deficiency appropriations and ITiO.
000 for miscellaneous debt redemptions,
will be r53.Ml.000; and the balance In the
general fund of the treasury will be re
duced to 120,644,605.78. The emergency
revenue act, If continued beyond Its pres
ent time limitation, would produce, dur
ing the half year then remaining, about
forty-one millions. The duty or one -cent
per pound on sugar. If continued, would
produce during the two months of the
fiscal year remaining after the first of
May, about fifteen millions. These two
sums, amounting togetner 10 nw.uuu.uu'i.
If added to the revenues of the second
half of the fiscal year, would yield the
treasury at the end of the year an avail
able balance of 176,644,606.78.
The additional revenues required to
rarry out the program of military and
naval preparation of which i, have spok
en, would, as at present estimated, be
for the fiscal year 1917. tS3.8iu.0X. Those
figures, taken with the figures for the
present fiscal year which 1 have already
given, disclose our financial problem for
the year 1917.
How shall we obtain the new revenue'
It seems to me a clear dictate of pru
dent etatesmanBhlp and frank finance
that In what we are now, I hope, about
to undertake we should pay aa we go.
The people of the country are entitled to
know Just what burdens of taxation they
are to carry, and to know from the outset,
now. The new bills should be paid by In
ternal taxation.
To what sources, then, shall we turn?
We would be following an almost unl
versal example of modern governments
If we were to draw the greater part or
even the whole of the revenues we reed
from the Income taxes. By somewhat
lowering the present limits of exemption
and the figure at which the surtax shall
begin to be Imposed, and by In' Teasing,
step by step throughout the present grad
uatlon, the surtax Itself, the Income taxes
as at present apportioned would yield
sums sufficient to balance the books of
the treasury at the end of the fiscal year
1917 without anywhere making the bur
den unreasonably or oppressively henvy.
The precise reckonings are fully and ac
curately set out In the report of the sec
retary of the treasury, which will be Im
mediately laid before you.
And there are many additional sources
many things that occur in a lifetime
which Jar or disturb us, which give a
different turn to our tastes and dispo
sition, which introduce changing ele
ments and predilections Into the prob
lems of the day and times of the
present and future can never be the
same as In the long ago. Yet the old
friends remain, possibly not In the
same neighborhood or community,
nor in the same part of the country.
But they are ever within the boun
daries of our spiritual vision and they
are enshrined In Ihe sanctuary ot the
of revenue which can Justly be reeortei
o without hsmperlng the Industries of
he country or putting eny too great
charge upon Individual expenditure. A
one per cent tax per gallon on fHsoilne
nd nnptha would y-rltl, at the present
estimated production, 1 10. Of"). 000; a tlx of
0 cents per horsepower on automobiles
und Internal e"pnslon engines. I 6 000 ow
stamp tax on bank checks, prohably
$iyoHM0; a tax nf 25 cents T ton on
pig Iron, fio.onn.ooo; a tax of 60 cents per
on on fabricated Iron and steel, proba
bly tlo.Ooo t"). In a country of great In
dustries like this It ought to be easy to
llstrlhute the burdens of tsxatlon with
out making them anywhere bear too
heavl'y or too exclusively upon any one
set of persona or undertaking. What Is
clear Is. that the Industry of this gener
ation should pay the hills of this genera
lion. The Danger Within.
I have spoken to you today, gentlemen.
upon a single theme, the thorough prep
aration of the nation to rare for Its
own security and to make sure of entire
freedom to play the Impartial role In this
hemisphere and In the world which we
all believe to have been providentially
assigned to It. 1 hsve had In mind no
thought of any Immediate or particular
(anger 'arising out of our relations with
other nations. We are at peace with all
the nations of the world, and there la
reason to hope that no question In con
troversy hetween this and other govern
ments will lead to any serious breach of
amicable relations, grsve aa aome differ
ences of attitude and policy have been
and may yet turn out to be. 1 am sorry
to say that the gravest threats' against
our national peace and safety hsve been
uttered within our own borders. There are
citizens nf the I'nlted States, 1 blush to
admit, born under other flags but welcomed
under our generous naturalisation laws
to the full freedom and opportunity of
America, who have poured the poison of
disloyalty Into the very artrrles of our
national life; who have sought to bring
the authority and good name of our gov
ernment Into contempt, to destroy our in
dustries wherever they thought It effec
tive for their vindictive purposes to strike
at them, and to debase our politics to the
uses of foreign intrigue. Their number
Is not great aa compand with the whole
number of those sturdy hosts by which
our nation has been enriched In recent
generations out of virile foreign stocks;
hut It is great enough to have brought
deep disgrace upon us and to have made
It necessary that we should promptly
make use of processes of law by which
we may be purged of their corrupt dis
tempers. America never witnessed any
thing like this before. It never dreamed
it possible that men sworn Into Its own
citizenship, men drawn out of great free
stocks such as supplhd some of the best
and strongest elements of that little, but
how heroic, nation that In a high day of old
staked Its very life to free Itself from
every entanglement that had darkened
the fortunes of the older nations and set
up a new standard here that men of such
origins and such free choices o. allegl
ance would ever turn In malign reaction
agulnst the government and people who
had welcomed and nurtured them and
seek to make this proud country once
more a hotbed of European passion. A
little while ago such a thing would have
seemed incredible. Because It was in
credible we made no preparation for it,
We would have been almost ashamed to
prepare for It, as If we were susplcloua
of ourselves, our own comrades and
neighbors! But the ugly and Incredible
has actually come about and we are with
out adequate federal laws to deal with
It. I urge you to enact such laws at
the earliest possible moment and feel that
In so doing I am urging you to do noth
ing less than save the honor and self
respect of the nation.
Must Be Crushed Out.
Such creatures of passion, disloyalty
and anarchy must be crushed out. They
are not many, but they are Infinitely ma
llgnant. and the hand of our power should
close over them at once. They have
formed plots to destroy property, they
have entered Into conspiracies against the
neutrality of the government, they have
sought to pry Into every confidential
transaction of the government In order
to serve Interests alien to our own. It is
possible to deal with these things very
effectually. I need nut suggest the terms
In which they may be dealt with.
I wish that It could be said that only
few mon, misled by mistaken sentiments
of allegiance to the governments under
which they were born, had been guilty of
disturbing the self-possession and nilsrep
resenting the temper and principles of
the country during these days of terrible
war, when It would seem that every man
who was truly an American would in
stlnctively make It hla duty and his prld
to keep the scales of Judgment even and
prove himself a partisan of no natlcn but
his own. But It cannot. There are som
men among us, and many resident abroad
who, though born and bred In the Unit
ed States and calling themselves Amer
icans, have ao forgotten themselvea an
their honor as citizens as to put thel
passionate sympathy with one or the oth
side In the great r-uropean conflict
nbove their regard for the peace and dig.
nity of the United States. They also
preach and practice disloyalty. No laws,
I suppose, can reach corruptions of the
mind and heart: but I should not speak
of others without also speaking of these
and expressing the even deeper humilla
lion and scorn which every self-possessed
and thoughtfully patriotic American muai
feel when he thinks of them and of the
discredit they are dally bringing upon u
Transportation Problem.
The transportation problem Is an ex
ceedlngly serious and pressing one In this
country. There has from time to tlm
of late been reason to fear that our rail
roads would not much longer be able t
cope with It successfully as at presen
equipped and co-ordinated. I auggesi
that It would be wise to provide for
commission of Inquiry to ascertain by
borough canvasa of the whole question
whether our laws as at present framed
and administered are as serviceable
they might be In the aolutlon of the prob

SACRED CITY OF THE JAINS
One of the Most Remarkable of the
Sights the Traveler Sees
in India.
Paiitana Is among the most wonder
ful placi'8 in that land of marvels. It
a in the Kathiawar peninsula, to the
north of Iiombay, and in the capital
of the small state of the sanio name
which adjoins Baroda. The town
stands on the Shetrunja river, whoae
overflowing has frequently caused dis
aster, and above rise the twin peaks
of Shetrunja hill, nearly 2.000 feet
above the plain. It Is the most sacred
of the five sacred hills of the Juins,
and their temple city crowns the sum
mit. The Jains, who today form one
of the largo merchant castes, may be
described as a heretical and ultra
humanitarian sect of Hinduism. Its
founder was contemporary with
Buddha. The Jains in all ages have
been great temple builders; their most
