WATCH YOUR STEP:Here is what Woodrow Wilson thinks of the presidency: "I need not tell you that the president, by himself, is absolutely nothing. The president is what the American nation sustains, and, if it does not sustain him then his power is contempitable and Insignificant.” No more eloquent plea for harmony on the part of American citizens, of whatever nativity, could possibly be made by a chief executive. President Wilson always appears to advantage when appealing to the loyalty of the people, but this appeal is quite the best he has made since European trouble started. It is a direct warning not to rock the boat. Every citizen should watch his step and see to it that his actions coincide with the policies which have been adopted by his government in this world crisis. The country in the main agrees with the president in ills ideas of neutrality, but it must be made unanimous. The president is right when he says that the calm citizens are the stabilizers of any government. With out the support and co-operation cf the people in a crisis of this kind, the effort of the greatest executive would be to no avail. —Battle Creek Journal Rep.
