The correct sequence of events be

easy tbnn the sequence of some of the
events In His sojourn In Ills, mortnl

difficult. Tile summitry 1n Acts I. 3. Is
clonr ond full. "lie shewed Himself
nllve after His pussiou by miiny In
fallible proofs, belnj; wen of them for
ty days nnd. s|ieaklnir of Ihe thine*

, He always spuke of the Kingdom,
both ln s His enrthly life mid until His
ascension, nnd there Is nothing so Im
portnnt as the coming of His Kingdom
which If we seek first He litis insured
us of all other things that we need.
(Matt vl. 83i. This np|tenrnnce of our

| EMPTY MARKETS TURN TO AMERICA
Europe Will Need Our Help, Say* President in Message to Con
gress—Ships Our Greatest Need —New Tasks and Du
ties Imposed on United States by the War.
■ ♦
Washington, Dec. B.—The necessity
' for legislation to prodvlde for trans
portation of our commerce by sea was
""iu-ongly urged by President Wilson In
, bp -1 engage to congress today. 'The
j president pointed out that the markets
7 of the greater part of the world are
empty and that ours is tho duty to sup
ply the needs not only of the coun
tries of Europe, but also of the coun
tries which hitherto have looked to
Europe for their supplies. The mes
sage In part follows:
The session upon which you are now
entering will be the u'oslng session of
the Sixty-third congress, a congress, 1
venture to say, which will long be re
membered for the great body of
thoughtful "and constructive work
which It has done, la loyal response
to the thought and needs of the coun
try.
While we have worked at our tasks
of peace the circumstances of the
whole age have been altered by war.
Whpt we have done for our own land
and our own people we did with the
best that was In us, whether of char
acter or of Intelligence, with sober
enthusiasm and a confidence In the
principles upon which we were acting
which sustained us at every step of
the difficult undertaking; but It is
done. It has passed from our bands.
We face new tasks, have been facing
them these six months, must face them
In the months to come —face them
without partisan feeling, like men
who have forgotten everything but •
common duty and the fact that we are
representatives of a great people
whose thought Is not of us but of what
America owes to herself and to all
mankind In such circumstances as
these upon which we look amazed and
anxious.
Europe Will Need Our Help.
War has Interrupted the means of
trade not only but also the processes
of production. In Europe It is destroy
Ing men and resources wholesale and
upon a scale unprecedented and ap
palling. There Is reason to fear that
the time is near, if It be not already
at hand, when several of the coun
tries of Europe will find It difficult to
do for their people what they have
hitherto been always easily able to do,
many essential and fundamental
things. At any rate they will need our
help and our manifold services as they
have never needed them before; and
we should be ready, more fit and
ready than we have ever been.
If is of equal consequence that the
nations whom Europe has usually sup
plied with Innumerable articles of
manufacture gnd commerce can now
get only a small part of what they
formerly Imported and eagerly look
to us to Bupply their all but empty
markets. Here are markets which we
must supply, and we must find the
means of action. .
— ttt: We Need Ships.
It is a very practical matter, a mat
ter of ways and means. We have "the
resources, but are we fully ready to
use them? And If we can made ready
what we have, have we the means at
hand to distribute it? We are not fully
ready; neither have we the means of
distribution. We are willing, but we
are not fully able. We have the wish
to serve and to serve greatly, gener
ously; but we are not prepared as we
should be. We are not ready to mo
bilise our resources at once. We are
not prepared to use them Immediately
and at their best, without delay and
without waste.
To speak plainly we have grossly
erred In the way In which we have
stunted and hindered the development
of our merchant marine. And now,
I when w&jleed ships, we have not got
them.
| I have come to ask you to remedy
and correct these mistakes and omis
sions. The time and the clrcum
-1 stances are extraordinary, and so
1 must our effortß be also.
and Conservation.
Fortunately, two great measures,
finely conceived, the one to unlock,
i with proper safeguards, the resources
' qf the national domain, the other to
I encourage the use of the navigable
I waters outside that domain for the
> generation of power, have already
passed the house of representatives
and are ready for Immediate consider
ation and action by the senate. With
the deepest earnestness I urge their
i prompt ..passage.
1 And theie Is another great piece of
' legislation which awaits and should
1 receive the sanction of the senate:
' I mean the bill which gives a larger
measure of self-government to/he peo
ple of tbe Philippines. I cannot believe
that tbe senate will let this great
I measure of constructive Justice await
tbe action of another congress. Its
f passage would nobly crown tbe record

An Important Duty.
. Bnt I think that yon will agree
with me that this does not complete ,
the toll of our duty. How are we to
carry our gooda to the empty markets
of wblcb I have spoken If- we have
not the. certain and constant means
of transportation upon which all profit
able and useful commerce dependsT
And how are we to get the shlpe If
we wait for the trade to develop with
out them? '
Tbe routes of trade must be actually
opened—by many ships and regular
sailings and moderate charges—before
streams of merchandise will flow free
ly and profitably through them.
Must Open Gates of Trade.
Hence the pending shipping bill,
discussed at the last session, but as
yet passed by neither house. In my
judgment such legislation la Impera
tively needed and cannot wlaely be
postponed. The government must
open these gates of trade. 1 very earn
estly hope that the congreaa will adopt
this exceedingly Important Mil.
Tbe great subject of rural credits
still remains to be dealt with, and
It Is a matter of deep regret that the
difficulties of the subject have seemed
to render It Impossible to complete
a hill for passage at this session. But
It cannot be perfected yet.
Economy Is Urged.
Before 1 close, may I say a few
words upon two topics, much dis
cussed out of doors, upon which It Is
highly important that out Judgments
should be clear, definite and steadfast.
One of these Is economy in govern
ment expenditures.
The sort of economy we ought to
practice may be effected, and ought to
be effected, by a careful study and
assessment of the tasks to be per
formed; and the money spent ought
to be made to yield the best possible
returns in efficiency and achievement
And. like good stewards, we should
so account for every dollar of our ap
propriations as to make It perfectly
evident what it was spent for and lb
what way it was spent.
It Is not expenditure but extrava
gance that we should fear being criti
cized for; not paying for tbe legiti
mate enterprises and undertakings of
a great government whose people
command what it should do, but add
ing what will benefit only a few or
pouring money out for what need not
have been undertaken at all or might
have been postponed or better and
more economically conceived and car
ried out. The nation is not niggardly;
It Is very generous. It will chide us
only If we forget for whom we pay
money out and whose money It Is we
pay.
These are large and general stand
ards, but they are not very difficult of
application to particular cases.
The National Dsfense.
The* other topic I shall take leave to
mention goes deeper Into the princi
ples of our national life and policy.
It Is the subject of national defense.
It cannot be discussed without first
answering some very searching ques
tiohs.
It Is said in some quarters that we
are not prepared for war. What la
meant by being prepared? Is It meant
that we are not ready upon brief no
tice to put a nation In tbe Held, a na
tion of men trained to arms? Of
course we are not ready 'o do that;
and we shall never be In time of
peace so long as we retain our pres
ent political principles, and Institu
tions. And . lat is It that It Is sug
gested we should be prepared to do?
To defend ourselves against attack?
We have always found means to do
that, and shall And them Whenever It
Is necessary without calling our peo
ple away from their necessary tasks
to render compulsory military service
In times of peace.
Fsar No Nation.
We are at with .11 the world.
No one who speaks counsel based
on fact or drawn from a Just and
oandid interpretation of realities
can say that there is reaaon for fear
1 that from any quarter our Indepen

because It Is our dearest present hope |
that this character and reputation
may presently, in Qod's providence,
bring us a an opportunity to counsel
and obtain peace In the world and i
reconciliation and a healing settle- :
ment of many a matter that has cooled
and Interrupted the friendship of
nations. This Is the time above all
others that we should wish and re
solve to keep our strength by self-pos
session, our Influence by preserving
our aneient principles of action.
Ready for Defense.
From tbe flrsf we have bed a clear
and setUed policy with regard to
military establlshmsnts. We never j
have bad, and while we retain our
present principles and Ideals we never
shall have, a large standing army.
If asked, are you ready to defend
yourselves? We reply, most assured
ly, to the utmost; and yet we shall
not turn America Into a military
camp. We must depend,Jn every time
of national peril, in the future as In
the past, not upon a standing army,
nor yet upon a reserve army, but upon
a citizenry trained and accustomed
to arms. It will be right enough, right
American policy, based upon our ac
customed principles and practices, to
provide a system' by which every
citizen who will volunteer for
the training may be made familiar
with the use of m- dern arms, tbe rudi
ments of drill and maneuver, and the
maintenance and sanitation of camps.
We should encourage such training
and make It a means of discipline
wblcb our young men will learn to
value. The National Guard of the
states should be developed and
strengthened by every means which Is
not Inconsistent with our obligations
to our own people or with the estab
lished policy of our government And
this, also, no* because the time or oc
casion specially calls for such meas
ures, but because it should be our
constant policy to make these provi- -
sions for our national peace and safe
ty- ?
M jre than this carries with It a re
versal of the whole history and char
acter of our polity. More than this,
proposed at this time, permit me to
say, would mean merely that we had
lost our self-possession, that we had
been thrown off our balance by a war
with which we have nothing to 40,
whose causes cannot touch us. whose
very existence affords us opportun
ities of friendship and disinterested
service which should make a*
ashamed of any thought of hostility
or fearful preparation for trouble.
This is assuredly the opportunity for
which people and a government like
ours were raised up, the opportunity
not only to speak but actually to em
body and exemplify the counsels of
peace and amity and the lasting con
cord which Is based on Justice and fair
and generous dealing.
Ships Our NMural Bulwarks.
A powerful navy we have always
regarded as our proper and natural
means of defense; and It has always
been of defense that we have thought
never of aggression or of conquest
But who shall tell us now what sort
of navy to build? We shall take leave
to be strong upon the seas, In the
future as In the past; and there will
be no thought of offense or ol provo
cation in that Our ships are our
natural bulwarks. When will the ex
perts tell us Just what kind we should
construct —and when will tbey be
right for ten years together, if the
relative efficiency of craft of differ
ont kinds and uses continues to
change as we have seen It change :
under our very oyes In these last |
few months?
But I turn away from the subject
It is not new. There Is no new need
to discuss It. Let there be no miscon
ception. The country has been misin
formed. We have not been negligent
of national defense. We are not un
mindful of the great responsibility
resting upon us. We shall learn and
profit by the lesson of every expert
ence and every new circumstances;
and what Is needed will be adequately
- done.
Great Duties of Peace.
I close, as I began, by reminding
you of the great "tasks and duties ol
peace which challenge our Vest powers
and Invite us to build what will last,
tbe tasks to which we can address
ourselves now and at all times tbe
' free-hearted zest and with all the finest ,
• gifts of constructive wisdom we pos
' sess. To develop our life and our re ,
' sources; to supply our own people, and
i the people of the world as their need
i arises, from tbe abundant plenty ol
' our fields and oar marts of trade; to
i enrich the commerce of our own states
i and of tbe world with tbe product* ol ,
i our mines, our farms, and our fee
i toriea, with the creations of oui
, thought and the fruits of our charac
i ter—this Is what will bold our at ten

I and In tbe years to come, aswejVriv*
• to dhow In our life as a nation what
i liberty and the Inspirations of as
