“ AMERIGA'S OPPORTUNITY . (By President Woodrow Wiison) [From General Federation Magazine for September] No one can doubt that the immediate future will be ecrowded with quick changes. Every true lover of America must wish the United States to play a part in those changes which will be worthy of her ideals and her character. Almost alone among the great nations of the world she will be unhampered in meeting a great opportunivy. In the first place, her resources are unimpaired. Not only has the war and all its attendant circumstances made no hurtful drain upon her men or her materialsy: it has even enhanced her skill and added to her resources, because of the very circumstances of her situation, cut off from her usual trade with many parts of the world and called upon to supply what she never supplied before, to the nations engaged in the great struggle not only, but also to her own people. She has developed industries that she had before neglected, has found new uses for her material and new material to use. She has thus been enabled to realize what she can do more fully than ever before, and to do it better than she ever did before. No other nation will stand quite so ready as she to serve the world in every work of peace and development. In the second place, she will probably of necessity be the chief reliance of the rest of the world in the field of finance. Probably the chief part in supplying the means necessary for the great reconstruetion which will have to. follow the war will fall to her. When the war began America was, striking the large balances, a debtor nation. Wheén the war closes, she will be a creditor of all the world. Her financiers will have it within their choice to play a part they have never played before in economic development of other nations and of distant regions of the earth. It is to be hoped that they will have the vision to accept the opportunity with far-sighted courage and a quick adaptation to the new conditions. _ ‘

In the third place, I think it is evi dent that the United States will understand herself better than she ever did before. The war and all its attendant circumstances have cried her wide awake to both the dangers of her life and its enormous possibilities and advantages. There have been many things to disturb us during these two years of long drawn-out tragedy. We had not realized before that there were certain elements in our citizen: ship which had not in their heart of hearts devoted themselves in full loyalty and allegiance to the country of their adoption. A new problem of disuriion, more subtle, more difficult to meet with direct checkmate and correction than the old problem which culminated in the Civil war, has engaged and disturbed our thought, and we have realized that we must devote a new energy and ardor to binding together the forces which will produce a new union, a union of spirits triumphant over every alien force and sympathy. But this very discovery, this very anxiety, has quickened the pulse of every loyal and devoted American throughout the length and breadth of the land, whether his birthplace was on this side of the water or on the other. A new and wholesome force has arisen amongst us of thoughtful, watchful, energetic pa triotism, and I venture to think that ‘the nation is better prepared on that account to face the problems of a new day in which it will marshal all its energies and assemble all its resources to enable the country we love to play the part it should seek to play in the counsels and actions of the great world.

Fortunately, America can play her part in the days to come unselfishley and impartially, because she covets nothing that other nations have unless it be their skill and knowledge in some of the undertakings of science and industry, and these things she can obtain, not by conquest of force, but by the mere careful use of the extraordinary capacity of her people. She can produce like skill and knowledge for herself., That is one of the things these days of strugyle and interrupted trade have taught her. She has nothing that she wishes to take away from the other nations of the world, and she is better prepared than she ever was before to make rich contribution to the development of other nations. Y i

The opportunity is at hand, therefore, for which she has waited. Her principles are suited to the freedom of mankind and the peace of the world, She can now exemplify those principles in action with a new leadership, a new opportunity to exhibit them upon a great scale. She can now afford an example of energy in justice as well as in enterprise, in fair and honorable competition, in thoughtful adaptation of her resources to the needs of the world, which may help to inaugurate a new era in the intercourse and lfriendly interdependence of the peoples of the world. - - ~ That she will rise to this great opportunity no man who knows her can doubt. It should be the pride and thoughtful purpose of every American 8o to equip himself with knowledge and so to purge his own heart that he ‘may play a suitable part in this rebirth of Americaniem.

THE LIGONIER BANNER, LIGONIER, INDIANA.

According to standpat orators and newspapers'a high tariff is necessary to ‘‘protect American workingmén.” This is good! The old tariff schedules are wanted by the big money power so that the interests may enjoy larger profits and . amuass greater fortunes while their employees help to pay tribute. This protective tariff bunk is not getting anywhere this campaign, particularly with labor.

Dis‘patches from Mexico indicate that President Wilson’s Mexican policy is the right ome. Peace is being establishe¢d in the southern republic by President Caranza and business is resuming its wanted activity. And all this without intervention and bloodshed. With peace in Mexico the last “‘issue’ in the campaign for republican standpatters is gone.

Noble county is extremely fortunate in securing Congressman Adair for Labor Day, Monday, Sept. 4. Mr. Adair will deliver an address in Ligonier Monday afternoon at 3:30 o’clock. He will go from here to Kendallvifle where a big rally will be held Monday night. Every democrat with an automobile should join the train here for Kendallville. :

Col. Roosevelt has an ambition to be president again. Realizing that Wilson will be re-elected he is playing “regnlar”’ this campaign and at the same time disposing of his vbld enemy Charles Kvans Hughes. When the next national republican convention is held the nominee will be Theodore Raoosevelt. S 3

County Chairman Munton in charge of republican affairs in Noble county is causing to be circulated ‘‘pledge cards’ and all who sign are supposed to vote for Candidate Hughes. The disappointment of Mr. Munton will be great when the votes are counted in November. : -

The Fort Wayne News at last swallows James Eli Watson. Watson is a bitter pill but he is on the standpat ticket and is no more nauseating to the average voter than a lot of other office seeking reaetionaries.

Constantly increasing demand has just forced us to place contracts on materials for an additional 15,000. i - Thus it is settled that- at least 35,000 more of the Hudson Super-Six will be built like the present model.. Our production is now 3,500 monthly. ; .

\ - No Change in Sight Our opinion is that a like announcement will be made in a year from now. The Super-Six invention in one bound increased motor efficiency by 80 percent. From a small, light six, which delivered 42 horsepower, it created at 76-horse-power-motor. And simply by ending vibration. . . _ * Stock Super-Sixes, in a hundred tests, have out. rivaled all other stock car performance. In speed, in hill climbing, in quick acceleration and endurance, they have done what was never done before. No man can doubt that the Super-Six holds the pinnacle place among motors.. And there is no ‘higher place in sight. - o ! After eight months of-experience, with 10,000 cars, not one imporitant improvement in design suggests itself to our engineering corps.
