When bankers from New
York told President Lincoln
how much money they had at
stake and demanded n warship
in New York harbor to protect
New York's treasure, President
.Lincoln said to them: "If I hud
i sis much money, as you say you
have, I'd build a 'battleship nt
my own expense."
Inasmuch as this government
finds it impossible to wake up,
it might pay bankers and prop
erty owners of New York and
other big cities to think a little
about air protection, at their I
own expense.
Ciovernor Lowden, a real
