TIIE MORNING OREGONIAN, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 14, 1916. WILSON 'ADVOCATES REAL AMERICANISM Thorough Preparedness, but Not Militarism, Said to Be Need of Nation. PRESIDENT GIVES WARNING 2Vo Man Can Tell What ext lay W ill Bring I'ortli, Says Six.aker, Xollins Cadets of Xeed of , Adequate Defense. "WEST POINT, X. X.. June 13. Presi dent Wilson, in an address to gradu atta at. the United states Military Academy, today discussed preparedness, militarism, Americanism, the causes o the war in Europe, peace, the Monroe ioc trine, divided allegiance and the ideals of America. - lie declared it is the present imperative duty of the United States to be prepared, adding, "mankind is going to know that when America speaKs she means what ahe The President said the United States should not be a blustering Nation, a! .Nation with a chip on its shoulder' but a calm Nation whicn will with hold its hand as long as possible and strike only tor victory. Tho President declared the present! war did not come by accident; but that; it had to come. The United States , wants nothing from Europe, he said, ! and there is nothing she wants which she must get by war. He sounded a warning that no man can tell what the; next day will bring forth in the world's ( events. i The word "Americanism" was used ' today by the President for the hrst time in recent addresses. He warned the graduates against militarism. The text follows: I look upon this body of men who are ffiaduutlnff today with a peculiar Interest. I fe-el like congratulating thorn that they are living in a iay not only so interestlniF because fraught with change, but also be cause so responsible, bayn of responsibility are the only days that count in time, be cause the are the only days that give test of quality. They are the only days when manhood and purpose are tried out a U by fire. ! lutuxe Somewhat Certain. X need not tell you young gmtlpmen that you are not like an ordinal graduating oiass of one of our universities. Mu In those uluuoi look lorward to the life which they , are to lead after graduation with a gieat jimny questions In their minds. Most of them do not know exactly what their lives are going to develop into, borne of them do not know what occupations they are go ing to follow. All of them are conjectur- , lug what will be the line of duty and ad vancement and the ultimate goal of suo cetss tor them. There la no conjecture for you. Tou have enlisted in something that dees not stop u hen you leave the academy, for you theu only bigin to realize it, which then only be gins to be filled with the full rich nee of Us meaning, and you can lock forward wlla absolute certainty to the sort of thing that you will be obliged to do. This has always been true of graduating classes, at West Point, but the certainty that some of the older classes used to look for ward to was a very dull certainty. Some of the old days in the Army I fancy were not very Interesting days. Sometimes men like the present chief of staff, for example, could fill their lives with the interest of really knowing and understanding the In dians of the Western plains, knowing what was going on inside of their minds and being able to be the intermediary between them and those who dealt with them by speaking their sign language could enrich their lives, but the ordinary life of an ordinary officer at a Western -post could not have been very exciting, and I think with admiration of those dull years through which officers whj had not a great deal to do insisted, never theless, upon being efficient and worth while and keeping their men fit at any time for the duty to which they were as signed Conditions Now Changed. But In your" case there are many ex traordinary possibilities, because, gentlemen, no man can certainly teil you what the immediate future is going to be, either In the history of this country or In the history of the world. It is not by accident that the present great war came in Europe. Every element was there and the contest had to come sooner or later, and it is not going to be by accident that the results are worked out, but by purpose, by the purpose of the men who are strong enough to have guid ing minds and indomitable wills when .the time for decision and settlement comes. And the part that the United States is to play has this distinction in it that it is to be in any event a disinterested part. There is nothing that the United States wants that it has to get by war, but there are a great many things that the United States has to do. It has to see that Its life is not interfered with by anybody else who wants something. These are the days when we are making preparation, when the thing most commonly discussed around every sort of table. In every sort of circle, in the shops and In the streets, is preparedness, and. undoubtedly, gentlemen, that is the present imperative duty of America, to be prepared. But we ought to know what we are preparing for. I remember hearing a wise man say once that the old maxim that "everything comes to the man who waits" is all very well, provided he knows what he is waiting for; and preparedness might be a very hazardous thing If we did not know what we wanted to do with the force that we mean to ac cumulate and get into fighting shape. America Knows Purpose. America, fortunately does know what she wants to do with her force. America came into existence for a particular reason. ... You are so familiar with American his tory, at any rate in its general character 1 don't accuse you of knowing the details of it. for I never found the youngster who did but you are so familiar with the gen eral character of American history that it does not seem strange to you, but it is a very strange history. There is none other like It in the whole annals of mankind; of men gathering out of every civilized na tion of the world on an unused continent and building up the polity exactly to suit themselves, not under the domination of any ruling dynasty or of the ambitions of any royal family. . . Now what we are preparing to do is to see that nobody mars thnt. and that, rtelne saf Itself a gainst in terference from the outside, all of its force Is going to be beMnd its moral Idea, and mankind Is going to know that when Amer ica speaks she means what she says. . . . Tou know that the chief thing that is holding many people back from enthusiasm for what is called preparedue&s is the fear j of militarism; I want to say a word to you, young gentlemen, about militarism. You are not a militarism because you are mili tary. Militarism does not consist in the ex istence of an army, not even, in the exist ence of a very great army. Militarism Is a spirit. It is a point of view; it is a sys tem. It Is a purpose. The purpose of mili tarism is to use armies for aggression. The spirit of militarism Is the opposite of the civilian spirit the citizen spirit. In a country where militarism prevails, the mili tary man looks down upon the civilian, re gards him as inferior, thinks of him as in tnded for his, the military man's, support and use; and just so long as America is America that spirit and point of view are impossible with us. There Is as yet in this country, so far as T can discover, no tlnt of the spirit of militarism. Militarism to Be Feared. Tou young gentlemen are not preferred in promotion because of the families you belong to. You are not drawn into the academy because you belong to certain In fluential circles. You do not come here with a long tradition of military pride back of you. You are picked. out from the citl- ; zens of the United States to be that part of the force of the United States which makes it polity safe against interference. You are the part of American citixena who say to those who would interfere: "You must not," and "you shall not' but you are American citizens and the idea I want to leave with you boys today is this: No mat- , ter what comes, always remember that first of all you are citizens of the United States before you are officers, and that you are officers because you represent in your pro fession what the citizenship of the United States stands for. There is no danger of militarism if you are genuine Americans, and I for one do not doubt that you are. When yon begin to have the militaristic spirit not the military spirit, that is all right then begin to doubt whether you are Americans or 'not. -You know that one thing in which our fore-fathers took pride was this, - that the civil power is superior to the military power in the United States. Once and again the peo ple of the United States have so admired some great military man as to make him President of the United States, when he be came commander-in-chief of all the forees of the United States, but he was commander-in-chief because he was President, w9t be cause he had been trained to arms, and his authority was civil, not military. lean teach you nothing of military power, but I am instructed by the United States to use you for constitutional and patriotic purposes. And that is the only nse you care to be put to. That is the only use you ought to care to be put to because, after all, what is the use in being an American If you do not know what it is? Americanism Put First. Tou have read a great deal in books about j the pride of the old Roman citizen who al- i ways felt like drawing himself to his full i height when he said: "I am a Roman," but as compared with the pride that must have i risen in his heart, our pride has a new dis- Unction, not the distinction of the mere.; Imperial power of a great empire, not the j distinction of being masters of the world, but the distinction of carrying certain lights ; for the world that the world has never so distinctly seen before, certain guiding lights of liberty and principle and justice. We have drawn our people, as you know, from all parts of the world, and we have , been somewhat disturbed recently, gentle men, because some of those though I be lieve a very small number -whom we haw drawn into our citizenship have not taken into their hearts the spirit of America, and have loved other countries more than .they loved their country of their adoption. We have talked a good deal about Amer icanism. It ought to be a matter -of pride with us to know what Americanism really consists in. Americanism consists in utterly believing in the principles of American and putting them first as above anything that might by chance rome Into competition with it. And I, for my part, believe that the American test is a spiritual test. If a man has to make excuses for what he has done as an American, I doubt his Americanism. He ought to know at every step of his action that the motive that lies behind what - he does is a motive which no American need be ashamed of for a moment. Now, we ought to put this test to every man we know. We ought to let it be known that anybody who does not put America first, cannot consort with us. But we ought to set them the ex ample. We ought to set them the example by thinking American thoughts; by enter taining American purposes, and those thoughts and purposes will stand the test of example anywhere in the world, for they are intended for the betterment of man kind. . Monroe Doctrine Brought In. So 1 have come to say these few words to you today, gentlemen, for a, double pur pose. First of all to express my personal good wishes to you in your graduation and my personal interest in you, and, second, to remind you how we must all stand together In one spirit as lovers and servants of Amer ica. And that means something more than lovers and servants merely of the United States. You have heard of the Monroe Doc trine, gentlemen. You know that we are al ready spiritual partners with both continents of this hemisphere, and that America means something which is bigger even than the United States, and that we stand here with the great power of this country ready to swing it out into the fields of action when ever liberty and independence and political integrity are threatened anywhere in the Western Hemlspher. And we are ready nobody has author ized me to say this, but I am sure of it we are ready to join with the other nations of the world in seeing that the kind of justice prevails anywhere that we believe in. ' So thai you are graduating today, gen tlemen. Into a new distinction. Glory at taches to all those men whose names we love to recount, who have made the annals of the American Army distinguished. They played the part they were called upon to play with honor and with extraordinary character and success. I am congratulat ing you, not because you will be better than they, but because you will have a wider world of thought and conception to piuy your part in. , Chip on Shoulder Not Wanted. I am an American, but I do not believe that any of us loves a blustering nationality, a nationality with a chip on its shoulder. a nationality with its elbows out and its swagger on. We love that quiet, self respecting, unconquerable spirit which does not strike until it is forced to strike, and then strikes to conquer. Never since I was a youngster have I been-afraid of the noisy man. I always have been afraid of the still man. I have always been afraid of the qult man. I had a classmate at college who was most dangerous when he was most affable. When he was maddest he seemed to have the sweetest temper in the world. He would approach you with a most ingratiating smile and then you knew that everv red corausclA in hU body was up and rushing. If you work things off in your elbows you do not work them in your mind; you do not wurK. Litem on in your purpose. My conception of America is a concep tion of infinite -dignity, along with quiet, unquestionable power. I ask you young gentlemen to loin with me In that rnnntinn and let us all in our several species be ouiuifio io(tPiner to realize It.

' BY IRVIN S. COBB. (Copyright, 1916, by the Central Press Association.) ST. LOUIS. June 13. (Special.) In asmuch as the .Democratic National Convention, now upon the imminent eve of going into session, is in harmony upon the issues of a. ticket, a keynote speech, a. committee to run the cam paign and, with the exception of one or two minor planks, has nothing to de bate as regards a platform, the corre spondents are being put to it to dig up contents for their dispatches this fair June evening. There is scant material for th pro fessional predicters because practically everything which might be predicted about under ordinary convention con ditions that is. under ordinary Demo cratic convention conditions is a fore gone conclusion. Boomlcls Die Anir. Those who have heretofore endeav ored to excite themselves over the pros pects of a. fight for the second place on the ticket likewise find the pick ings exceedingly poor. The Vice-Presidential boom of Governor Major, of Missouri, appears at this writing to be almost ready to put on its wings and take a harp in its lily white hands and ascend to the heaven reserved for good little booms that die early and sinless. And, while a mirror, held to the pallid lips of the Roger Sullivan boom, still shows a slight trace of moisture, no body expects the poor little thing will last more than a few hours longer. Its pathetic piping cries have sunk to a thin gasping sound. Theinf antile boom or governor jvioreneaa, or rveDrasKa, expired as it was being lifted off the train. It was too pure, too fragile, too tender to endure the strain of travel this hot weather. - The interment will be private, only intimate friends of the sorrowing parents being present. So, now it is certain Just as it has been certain all along that Vice-Presi dent Marshall will be renominated. It is true that he has not made an excit ing Vice-President and that he has not been spectacular, but a Vice-President is not expected to be exciting, anyway. Nativity la Bis Factor. Besides, he comes from Indiana, from which state, also, hails Charles V. Fairbanks, and the Democrats, in com mon with the Republicans, continue to nurse the belief that if a man has had the good fortune to be born in a pivotal state, or to have been reared there, and to do his regular voting there, he has a better chance of carrying that state for his party than if he came from some other state. The Eastern and North ern Democrats, as a rule, are pretty fervent for Marshall, not because they love Mr. Marshall so dearly, but be cause there is a sentiment among them that the South has rather hogged the patronage of this Administration, and coupled with this sentiment a well defined fear that if the race for the second place became a free-for-all, some favorite son from a Southern state might project himself into the fray and win the jackpot. About the only real flare of interest today was born of a report that the Republicans or somebody early this morning had derailed the train bearing the Kentucky delegation hither, and as a result the -Kentucky brethren were in a badly messed-up state. Things quieted down when the Kentuckian.-. headed by Governor Stanley and ex- Governor McCreary, arrived intact, but very thirsty and only an hour or so late. Delegate (Mistakes Wreck. Tour correspondent talked with one of the party, a gentleman from the heart of the bluegrass district, who be trayed a slight nervousness and had a feverish look in his eye and a heightened color not altogether at tributable to Summer tan. It certainly was a mighty close call," he said, as he Indicated to the g-entlemanly barkeeper that he would take confliderable more of the same. "I did right smart shopping around amonget those handy places near the depot In Louisville last, night before we got on the train. I was in my berth feeling very null and void and holding on tight with both hands when all of a sudden our car hit something and jumped oft the tracks and whirled over a couple of times and skidded down a 30-foot embankment and stood on end and then came to a stop so sud denly that it turned all of us boys upside down. "Were you frightened?" I asked. "No." he said. "I didn't think it was the train. 1 thought It was me. And by the time I found out that the symptoms were general, instead of just local, as you might say, the whole af fair was over and it was too late- to get skeered.". "Was anybody Injured?" I inquired still seeking to glean the salient de tails. . " "Not a soul broke a nigger's arm or laig or something. It was mighty provi dential there was not anybody hurt. Shopping; Is Overdone. "Say. son," added the bluegrass dele gate, as I arose to- depart. "Don't they have lovely ice water in this town? When I first got in here. I reckon if I drunk a drop of ice water I must a drunk a gallon. I don't believe I ever tasted such good ice water in my life as these folks have here in St. Louis. I'm sorter easing up, on it now," but for a spell it seemed like I just naturally couldn t get enough of the stuff. "Son. I reckon I overdid my shopping in Louisville last night coming through there. Lacking real news developments, the correspondents have been touching up the local color. There is plenty of that, -at any rate. The convention promises to be especially prolific in the picturesque types which always abound at conventions, of whatsoever party. Time was when a Democratic gathering was all-white, but not any more. I do not mean by this to lnti mate that the Afro-American is visible about the headquarters except in the capacity of a waiter, but the delegates from Hawaii some of them are brown men. and at least - one of the Oklahoma delegates is an Indian, and complected accordingly. Pastel Shading; Noted. So. while there isn't the pronounced brunette .shading which continues to characterize a Republican convention where the gulf state delegations are still about evenly divided between plain and colored, still it is not to be denied that there is a pronounced pastel shading to the general tone effect. Considerable furore was created by the arrival of the Tammany delega tion traveling on their special train of four sections and a buffet car to each section. Not a onnntv hlrtw RnvnA Water but was represented. The solid south of Ireland never sent a finer looking lot of delegates to a Demo cratic convention. But with chagrin it was noted that some of the members irom New York City, where all citi zens are supposed to be sartorially cor rect in every detail, were wearing their hair cut bush league style, which, while it gives the wearer the appearance of being highbrowed all the way 'round. Is decried in the ultra-smart circles of the Kast as tending to bare too great an expanse of the back of the neck. Colonel Bill SaoD. National com mitteeman from Kansas, is no longer me mosi-taiKea-oi Kansan here pres ent, for A. Dumon Smith, also ot Kansas, is reported to have arrived. Colonel Sapp may be the only man in Kaneas who with imn UTlitv Ttrenin a high hat and an undertaking and emuKirains rrocK coat on week days, but Mr. Smith is the only native-born American beyond the Mississippi River wno wears a monocle. The theory is ad vanced that he gets awav with It be cause the yeomanry think he is buy ing a pair of glasses on the install ment plan and hasn't so far been able to raise sufficient funds to fill nut tha set. A monocle in a Democratic rnnv,n. tion ought to create a sensation. Let us pray that it doesn't create a riot. BETTER. MARKETS FRUITGROWERS HOLD MEETING AT SHERID.l.V. County Aarrlcvltnriat and University of Oregoa Officials DUcusa Northwest Agrency. SHERIDAN. Or.. June 13. rSnecial.l Northwest, state and county dele- Bates met with the Sheridan fruit growers yesterday for Lhe purpose of getting tne local fruitgrowers associa tion to Join the Northwest A Northwest, state and local conditions were discussed and It was the opinion of the majority present that necessity was driving the fruitgrowers to some concerted action for the purpose of bettering the markets. M. S. Shrock. county agriculturist; H. B. Miller, of the University of Oregon; Professor C. I. Lewis, head of the department of horticulture at Orexon Agricultural College, and J. C. Skinner, editor of the Fruit and Produce Marketer, of Port land, are meeting with the associations of the county and state to discuss the movement of uniting all the associa tions of the four Northwest states under the Northwest Agency Incorporated. The associations, which join, sign the uniform contract for the growers and selling agents of fruits and pro duce in the Northwest. "This." said Mr. Skinner, "is 'a remedy to reduce the cost of production without sacri ficing the quality." The local association will discuss tho matter further before taking action. Mr. S'cinner and Professor Lewis are touring the state. - They were accom panied here by K. W. Wallace, presi dent of tne Fruitgrowers Association of McMinnville, and a veteran fruit grower of the state. Tomorrow an ttempt will ie made to unite . the Springbrook growers. PLANK IS AGREED ON Northwest to Indorse Princi ple of Suffrage. OREGON IS TAKING LEAD Those who laufth at the Swedes for pro nouncing" John an "yon" may well look to their own English fatherland, where the name still survives with that pronunciation, and spelled "Ian." Ivan, the Russian name which is yronounced like tho French Yvonne, is merely anotner way ot saying tne same thtnir. Cold Shoulder Tnrned to Congres sional 'Union South, Strongly Opposed to Action on Sub- s . Ject in. Any Form. ST. LOUIS, June 13. (Spechxl.) The Oregon delegates to the Democratic Na tional Convention are taking the lead in the fight to secure the adoption of a plank in the party platform indorsing the principle of woman suffrage, and In this effort have the co-operation of the delegation Trora Washington, Idaho. Montana and other Western suffrage states. All these Northwest delegations are supporting the ' following plank, which has the approval of the National Woman Suffrage Association: "Believing that governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed, we acknowledge the right of women to participate in government and their enfranchisement."' CoDKresalonat Union. Itvnored. This is not the plank demanded by the Congressional Union. The delegates from Oresron, like those from other suf frage states, are turning a cold shoul der to the Union's representatives, be cause of attacks made by the Congres sional Union in the last campaign -on Senator Chamberlain and other Demo crats who favored woman suffrage. The Union demands a constitutional amendment. The National Suffrage As sociation is not asking foV an amend ment, but merely for an Indorsement of the suffrage principle, and the fore going plank will be actively supported by the Oregon member of the resolu tions committee. There is strong Southern opposition to any sort of woman suffrage plank and some opposition from the East. If the suffrage plank is forced into the platform, it will be only after a stub born fight made by the far West, and even then, it will he because the leaders deem it expedient to throw this much "sop" to the suffragists. Majority Would Avoid Subject. Clearly a majority of the delegates do not approve equal suffrage, and do not want to deal with the subject in the platform, but many recognize that the omission of a suffrage plank will increase the difficulty Of carrying the suffrage states in November. Leaders generally are not unmindful of the fact that a real campaign confronts Mr. Wilson. ' and have about concluded to Incorporate in the platform about everything necessary to catch votes. The action of the Republican conven tion also is a factor in favor of a suf frage declaration by the Democrats. Morton Man Buried. CENTRALIA. Wash., June 13. (Spe cial.) J. F.

The funeral was held at Wlnlock today. pniiiiniiniiiiimnnmiinniM "The tonic effect of Sanatogen on me is simply wonderful." Arnold Bennett The famous novelist thus sums up his experience with Sanatogen, the food tonic for weak and overworked people. "What he says is echoed by thousands upon thousands of other grateful users of Sanatogen who also have experienced with a thrill of delight its revitalizing effects upon body and mind. Shrewd and discriminating people, like Mr. Arnold Bennett, have learned to de pend upon Sanatogen for recuperative aid. They know that Sanatogen is a natural, true tonic whose good effects keep on increasing instead of reacting as with stimulants until the body is endowed with so great a fund of added strength and resistive force that work- ing power and efficiency are wonder fully improved. Says Mme. Sara Grand, the famous au thoress, in stating her experience with Sanatogen: "And now after taking it steadily, I find myself able to enjoy both work and play again, and able to do a3 much of both as I ever did." And when it is remembered that the medical profession is daily recom mending Sanatogen, that no less than 21,000 physicians have endorsed, in writing, its value and effects, surely no doubt can exist that Sanatogen is the logical thing for you to take in times of bodily nervous stress.
