HUNDltnDS VOLUNTKEU ALL "Tlicse hundreds of thousands of Indi viduals wero supplemented by hundreds more, who offered their entire business establishments. They came to Washington personally to make Known their willingness to serve. "It was a tremendous confusion. Grad ually older began to be worked out of the chaos. Kach day as I came to my office and raw messengers loaded with letters I knew that that democracy lilch the President wanted safe for the world wn safe for Amerlra nt lent. Only a few short months have elapsed, yet out of the confusion there Is now order. And out cf the Nntlonal Council of Defense and the War Industries Board has como full and orderly system, nnd not only do we know what the country can do, but we have started tho country to do It. All business In the United States has acquired a bias In favor gt our national strength In this organization, 'And now for somo of the things which hno been accomplished, Wo will take for Instance tho War Department, with which, of course, I am best acquainted, "Before tho war wo had nn army not much larger than tho pollco force of London, 1 had met men who were hopeless nnd fear ful about It. And et In tho short months elapsed since our need for expansion our hillsides have become peopled w Ith soldiers. "And I ask you to remember, above all, that during theso months not once has n. criticism been voiced of the efficiency and ability of tho members of tho original stand ing nrmy who were called upon to train the 40,000 young men of tho nation who have since becomo officers In our training camps. For a peaceful nation has this ever been equaled In history?" "Instead of there being discord nnd dis content over these enlisted men," Secretary Baker continued, "you will find at every ono of tho training camps that the boys are as proud as peacocks and can be clisscd ns tho best material for soldiers In tho world. SIXTEEN CITIES IUSK QUICKLY "Slxtcon cities have been built, each to house from 40,000 to 60,000 persons. They have sprung up In desert places like Jonah's gourd vine, The summons to produce tho materials for these great camps was In stantly answered by business, nnd their building Ins gone forward with lightning rapidity. "The Government used to go about with a market basket on Its arm, but In this crisis we found new sources of supply. From one end of tho country to tho other the spirit got abroad among business men that they must produce all theso materials for clothing nnd arming the men. The result is marvelous. "At tho outset there may havo been n. dis position on the part of somo fev peop'e tu put nn 'If or a 'but' on their ability to do what the country wanted of them. But It did not take long to show them that produc tion, not profits, was the thing at stake. The leader of business now says: " "The i all to us Is the sime as that to tho young man In arms. It Is not going to bo popular to mnke money while some nro lay ing down their lives." "Tho llepubllo stands fast nnd united and the men at the front havo the assurance of tliu solid bUpport of business men at home. PRODUCTION. NOT PROFIT "There has been an orgy of destructive ns. In tho past three vears. Therefore tho prime affnlr for business Is production. Business that works ovsrhard, however, Is unwisely wearing out its strength. Wo must not devitalize ourselves before tho time when the nation must enter Into competi tion with the world. Don't overwork tho workers: don't take children under ago; don't neglect methods of rnfcguardlng jour vvoikers. "The waves hero on tills beach once seemed to bring a message of universal fellowship between the nations. But I thought this morning I heard tho voice of chlldicn crying In the sea, telling of nn ar rogant adversary that has lost all mercy. But the Ilulcr of the Universe does not live in Berlin. I thought theso waters were telling of bombs dropped from the air, of a mad lust for territorial expansion, "And I thought how close we are to Philadelphia, where a man first procl limed the simple human message that we aro all brothers here. It Is our business today to make that message widen from land to land. "If tho cry of tho wa,vca from the shores of France has brought us the message, 'freedom is in danger.' then yo peoples of Amerlra. baptlred with tho spirit of free dom, will send hack this answer: CHILDREN CRY ON Till: WAVES "The vae hTe brought iih jimr iry nnd let tliem send burl, our nnsner we nre marching million strong, our soldiers, our business, our Industry nil pledged to this, our wnr, nnd our wnr. "This age will be looked back to as the epoch when the peoples of the world reached the fullest maturity of unconquerable man hood and the last struggle between democ racy and autocracy took place, democracy being overwhelmingly triumphant " 'Two things must coino out of this war. First, it will make the world safe for de mocracy, and, second, through our wonder ful co-operation In business endeavor and war production and the unification of Ideals unharmonlzed before the war It will demon strate to the world that there Is no longer need for czars, emperors or oligarchies. "History will give a great place to this ago. It will give a great place to the boys who nro going gladly and willingly to France to fight, and perhaps to die. It will give great place to the smokestacks of tho nation. It will join tho guns and the smoke stacks. And It will be remembered, lastly, that America gave her all in this conflict, and out of It came victory." ENTHUSIASM RUNS WILD Tremendous applause greeted tho con clUMuii of Secretary Baker's speech, and, llko one man, tho great nesembly of busi ness leaders rose and burst Into the strains of "The Star Spangled Banner." Secretary Baker brought positive word to the dlrectois of the Chamber of Com merce that President Wilson, because of the pressuro of affairs, could not come to nrtrirM the coin cntlon.'ns had been hoped Tho dlrectois. however, are framing a le nevval of their Invitation to the President "We do not yet despair of ills coming." said A.

Reynolds said ho believed Prusslanlim was making Its last fight, nnd that the war would bo finished In much less tlmo than has been consumed thus far. miBTT STATES PURPOSE OF MEETING The opening nddress of President Rhett follows In part: This convention has been called hy the National Chamber of Commerce primarily In order that American business may have an opportunity of expressing Its sentiments with respect to tho war In which we aro now engaged, and of de claring In plain and unmistakable Inn gunge what It expects nnd proposes to do In aiding to bring that war to a suc cesssful conclusion. In order that these oTpressions may be thoroughly representative of American business of ever' kind, and from every part of the country, the Chamber has not only called together tho delegates from Us own 9R0 commercial organizations, members, representing more than 400,000 individuals, firms, and corporations, nnd Its own Individual and nssoclato mem bers numbering moro than fi,000, but It has extended Invitations to other commer cial organizations of tho country not members of the chamber to bo represent ed here, nnd to unite with It In sending out a message from tho business men of Anierien, whlcn will let tho world clearly understand that whatever the rost, what ever the snrrlflce, they propose to plnre every resource nt their rommnnd behind the Government and It Allies In their determination to see tlmt liberty, de morrney, elvlllintlon nnd Immunity flinll not perish. AVAR CHANGES METHODS Taking up the war-time situation Mr. Rhett said: "Business has been groping In the dark becauso It finds tho very foundations of commerce havo been upturned. Demand nnd supply can no longer be permitted to control prices, because tho extraordinary demands of the Government have com pletely unbalanced tho scales. Something elso must bq found to tako Its place for tho tlmo being. The Government Is now searching for that something, nnd in tho process confusion has naturally arisen. In this confusion there havo undoubtedly been cases where selfishness nnd greed havo outweighed patriotism, but these cases have been exceptional, mid the crent bod of business men bnre trmtrhihly stood suunrely behind the (iovrrninent In Its plans nnd propesuls. "But,, gentlemen wc re gathered to gether not only for the purpose of giving expression to ur prntlments and our pur poses In connection with this war, but nlso of lnqjlrlng into tho means whereby we may most effectually aid tho Government, and Its Allies to win It. Wo can perform no more patriotic or profitable rervico than by contributing the discretions and conclu nlons of this splendid githerlng toward a solution of theo pioblems In tho best Inter est ot the nation. "The President has well said that this war Is not a lmttlo of armies, but a conflict of nations In which every national resource must bo called Into play. 1 doubt not that this convention composed ot men of wide experience nnd high attainments shall b able to contribute much thought nnd in formation that will materially help tho Gov ernment tu determining how business men can aid it best. "But. gentlemen, while tho problems of how we can best aid tho Government to win tho wnr. and how we ran best Aid ourselves and the country to prosperity after tho wai. are to engage our ntlentlon, let me empha size In conclusion, tho primary and p.nn inount purpose of this convention "Our oountrvnien want to know just how the business men feel about this war Our allies, likewise, want to know what thoughts are filling our minds, and what sentiments are filling our hearts In this vvoi Id-wide struggle. We rmSst, Indeed, I knovr we shall, sound-no uncertain note. Can we, win have lived In this country where liberty under democracy Is held as a sacred heritage and valued fnr higher th.n life Itself can we cTmtemplnte for one moment tho possibility of Us extinguishment? AUTOCRACY MUST END "Can we permit German autocracy nnd militarism to remain nt n ronsinnt mensr to Hint liberty n romtnnl danger lo the peace nnd triinqulllty of the world? Can there bo nny compromise with this question, now that millions of men havo died to make It Impossible? Men mny rry 'I'enee, penre,' but there ran be no pence so long ns 'kullur,' under nutorrntlo Interpretation nnd direc tion, remntn's n vltnl force In the world so long as any great and aggressive nation ot men nro made to believe they possess a superiority which entitles them to subject others to their will, and their self-constituted rulers nro permitted perpetually to via. nnu plan lo mat purpose. "Must not nil menaco of it be ended now? Dare we. for tho sake of cessation of blood shed, which can only bo temporary nnd at the sacrifice ot the millions that have died, and will have 'died In vain, postpone 111 dangers to another generation? There may be some who care not what may happen to futuro generations, It this generation be permitted to live in peace, nor how humili ating the peice under which they live. There mny be thoso who would sacrifice nny national welfare, present or future, to their own ambitions, possibly to their own comforts, but. thank God, In this splendid democracy of ours they can constitute a very smnll minority, nnd In the ranks of business their number Is negligible. "Let us mntyi this number Infinitesimal hy such vigorous pronouncements and by such united nctloi, both In convention ns srmbled nnd In business engaged, that every Impulse to selfish or sordid action mny bo surpressed nnd n great witvo of enthusiasm may movo us on to such achievement In service and In sacrifice ns shall constitute a compelling inlluenco for a speedy conclu sion to this wnr n conclusion that will bring us n i eat peace a penco for this gen eration nnd generations to come a peace that will securo for nil times to mankind Its most precious possessions which, In their aggregate, wo call civilization and hu-inanity," GREAT "WAR CONFERENCE" IS FIFTH OF U. S. BODY BLOWS AT KAISERISM fly n Slnff Cnrrt sjionrfettf ATLANTIC CITV, Sept. 18. This is tho fifth of Uncle Sam's body blows nt the Kaiser. The first was tho Liberty Loan, tho second tho Red Cross drive, tho third tho dispatch of Pershing's troops overseas, tho fc-urth tho raising of 640.000 drafted troops almc-it overnight. Tho t'.fth begins here at Atlantic City to day after tho preliminary warming-up ot yesterday. And this fifth blow- at tho Kai ser's solar plexus la the forging of tho most powerful and unified group of business men ever known to nny nation. It was only necessary to be present nt the openln'g sesjlon of the "war conference" of tho Chamber ot Commerce of America to get a thrill as distinct ns that which cue gets nt tho sight of marching troops, with the Stars and Stripes at their head. A phalanx of a thousand of the biggest business men In America : there they stood representing 400.000 private businesses, firms nnd corporations, whoso trado touches every Individual In the United States an Immensity of Industry which dizzies the tmnglnatlon. And each one of those thousand face", from that of the oungest captain ot In dustry to that of tho whltcst-hcardcst general of finance, glowed with n light which wns unmlstnkably tho same, the light ot determination to fight for tho na tion's cnuso up to tho trenches of hell, and beyond; they wero on flro with It this determination." Tho nfternoon'n program was supposed to be only a set affair, a mere gettlng-togcthcr In advance of morn serious work to come. But they couldn't wait. Man after man leaped tn his feet, fretting to pour his story of what his section of tho country stands ready to do for tho nation. CONSECRATED TO TASK It didn't matter that tho tlmo allotted to them mado It Impossible for them to say what was so evidently burning within them. Their consecration sliono on their faces. For years thete havo been those who have said that America was a land grown fat about the eyes from Idolatry of the dollar. Tho sneer that the men of Amei lea have been too deeply sunk In tho love of gain ever to hear tho voice nt self-sacrificing Idealism has been Hung nt her. But this gathering hero Is a magnificent ges ture of repudiation. Thoso who mocked have only to look To list the names of tho men who have met hero and to Inventory the extent of the buslncs-e which they represent would be to tell the story ot tho building of a nation, tho richest nation In tho world Billions ot dollars In production nre within tho power of theso men. And they stand heie today, eager as boys in khaki, to leap forward In the direction In which their coun'rv rails them. "What would you have lis do? Wo are lendy to do it."
