She ought to keep out of this war at the sacrifice of everything except this sin gle thing upon which the character and j history are founded—her sense of hu-! inanity and justice. If she sacrifices j that she has ceased to be America; \ she has ceased to entertain and to; love the traditions which have made j us proud to be Americans, and when j we go about seeking safety at the ex- ! pense of humanity, then I for one will i believe that I have always been mis-; taken In what I have conceived to be ] the spirit of American history." In these sentences President Wil-1 son. speaking at the Gridiron dinner) Saturday night, amplified his position j on the submarine question as express- | ed in the letter to Senator Stone. His speech, the first he had made! after the uprising in Congress and! heard by many public men, was touch- I ed with stirring: thought upon the in ternational situation and the way j American sentiment is made. It was j an intimate talk, and as such reflected I the strong personal views of the Pres ident. Directs shaft at Congressmen Mr. Wilson "came back" at the ele ment in Congress which had attempt ed last last week to force him to mod ify his attitude in dealing with Ger many in the armed merchantmen is sue by saying bluntly that he pre ferred more to know what the people throughout the country were think ing about than was said in congres sional cloakrooms. What may have been intended by the President as an explanation of the "too proud to light" phrase In his Philadelphia speech shortly after the Lusitania was sunk, and for which he has been seriously criticised both here and in England, was contained in the concluding portion of his address in this remark: "1 would be just as much ashamed to be rash as 1 would be to be a coward." He said in part: "America ought to keep out of this war. She ought to keep out of this war at the sacrifice of everything except this single thing upon which her character and history are founded—her sense of humanity and justice. If she sacrifices that, she has ceased to be America; she has ceased to be America; she has ceased to entertain and to love the traditions which have made us proud to be Americans, and when we go about seeking safety at the expense of hu manity, then I for one will believe that I have always been mistaken in what 1 have concedded to be the spirit of American history." "I would be just as much ashamed , to be rash as 1 would to be a coward, j Valour is self-respecting;.' Valor is jcircumspect. Valor strikes only when it is right to strike. Valor withholds itself from all small implications and [ entanglements and waits for the great opportunity when the sword will flash |as if it carried the light of heaven jupon its blade." "I would a great deal rather know j what they are talking about around ! quiet firesides all over this country ; than what they are talking about in i the cloakrooms of Congress." HUNDREDS DROWN WHEN STEAMSHIP HITS MINE [Continued From First Page] I washed ashore, making- the total of j bodies recovered forty-seven. Many relatives arc arriving at Dover for the ■ purpose of endeavoring to identify i bodies. Among those rescued yesterday was ' a baby warmly clad which was found I floating on its back. The child was discovered by a patrolboat and was i taken into the engineroom. After be -1 ing warmed, it smiled at. its rescuers | and seemed none the worse-for the | immersion. Freshly-sown Mines The British press is almost unani | mous in assuming that the Maloja and I the other vessels sunk by mines dur ■ ( ing the week-end were victims of a .! fresh sowing of German mines. There is much speculation as to how these mines could have been laid. The theory most frequently advanced is i, that a certain class of neutral ship j ping was employed. The Pall Mall Gazette suggests that \ such operations may drive England to , still more stringent supervision of neu • j tral shipping than has yet been exor cised by the Admiralty. . I Rcseue Ships Also Sunk The British tankship Empress of | Fort William, of 2,181 tons, was sunk while attempting to rescue the sur j vivors of the Maloja, also in less than a half hour. All but one of the crew j of the Empress were saved by other boats in the vicinity. The explosion »as so violent that j houses along the water front were shaken. j Relief boats had quickly put out j from the harbor of Dover, and suc- I ceeded in picking up a number of the ! Maloja's passengers when the liner j went down. „ The Maloja had just passed Ad miralty Pier, at Dover, and was op posite Shakespeare Cliff when an ex- I plosion shook her from end to end. She listed immediately to port. High 1 seas were running, and the captain, f realizing that great damage had been done to the afterpart of his vessel, tried to run her aground, but the en gineroom was'swamped and the ship became unmanageable. The plight of the vessel was ob- PALE WIVES AND MOTHERS Many women who had a good color in their girlhood grow pale and colorless •when they become wives and mothers. When the fading color in cheeks and 1 lips is accompanied by a loss of bright ness in the eyes and an increasing heavi ness in the step, the cause is to be sought in the state of the blood.

Aboard the Maloja everything pos sible was done to get the passengers and crew off. All the boats had al ready been swung out before she struck, as a precaution against acci de.nt, and all those aboard had suffi cient time to put on lifebelts, instruc tion in the use of which had been given the previous evening.
