8 President Calls For War on Austria-Hungary KAISER ALLIES MUST BE CRUSHED [Continued from First Pag* l .] <lone can right be net up us arbiter wild peacemaker anionic tho nations. But when that has been don©—*#, Cod willing, It assuredly will be— we shall at last be free to do an un precedented thin* and tills la the time to avow our purpose to do It, AVe shall be free to base peace on generosity and justice, to tho exclu sion of all selllsh claims to advan tage even on the part of tho victor#. No Turning Aside Let there bo no misunderstanding. Our present and Immediate task In to win the war and nothing Mhall turn us aside from It until It Is ac complished. Every power and re source we possess, whether of men, of money or of materials ts being devoted and will continue to be de voted to that purpose until It is achieved. Those who desire to ortng j peace about before that purpose is achieved, I counsel to carry their ad vice elsewhere. We will not enter tain it. We shall regard the war only as won when the German people say to us, through properly accredit ed representatives that they are ready to agree to a settlement based upon justice and tho reparation of the wrongs their rulers have done. They have done a wrong to liolgium, I which must be repaired. They have established a power over other lands and peoples than their own—ovei the great empire of Austria-Hungary, over hitherto free Balkan states, over Turkey, and within Asia —whlcu must be relinquished. Spurns Triumphs of Peace Germany's success by skill, by In dustry, by knowledge, by enterprise, | we did not grudge or oppose, but i admired rather. She had built up l 'for herself a real empire of trade j and influence, secured by tho peace of the world. Wo were content to abide the rivalries of manufacture, science and commerce that were in volved for us In her success and stand or fall as we had or did not have the brains and tho Initiative to surpass her. But at tho moment when she had conspicuously won her triumphs of peace, she threw them j away to establish In their stead what; the world will no longer permit to; bo established, military and political domination by arms, by which to, oust where she could not excel the | rivals she most feared and hated, j The peace we make must remedy I that wrong. It must deliver the once ! fair lands and happy peoi les of Bel- '' gium and Northern France f"oin the ], Prussian conquest and the Prussian menace, but it must also deliver the peoples of Austria-Hungarv, tho i peoples of the Balkans and thej peoples of Turkey, alike in Europe < and in Asia, from the impudent and i alien domination of the Prussian: military and comn,e;*cijl autocracy. To Slake Fortunes Secure We owe it, however, to ourselves, ; ! rto say that we do not wish in any ; , way to impair or to rearrange the j Austro-Hungarian empire. It is no 1 affairs of ours what they do with ' their own life, either Industrially 01 < ' politically. We do not purpose or j ' desire to dictate to them in any way. ! I We only desire to see that their af- ' fairs are left in their own hands, in [ ' ■ all matters, great or small. We shall 1 ' ftiope to secure for the peoples of the ;' Balkan peninsula and for the people i i of the Turkish empire the right and li opportunity to make their own lives [ i safe, their own fortunes secure i against oppression or injustice and < from the dictation Of foreign courts i or parties. , And our attitude and purpose with , regard to Germany- herself are of a i like kind. We intend to wrong j, against the German empire, no in> I , terference with her internal affairs. ( We should deem either the one ot | the other absolutely unjustifiable, , absolutely contrary to the principles ' we have professed to live by and to i hold most sacred throughout our i life as a nation. j < Rulers Deceive People | 1 The people of Germany are being i i told by the men whom they now i permit to deceive them and to act as < their masters that they are fighting \ for the very life and existence of s their empire, a war of desperate i against deliberate ag- i How To Get Rid Of Indigestion • "Most people who suffer from indl- , s gestion, gastritis, dyspepsia, etc.—even ! ' those who have been afflicted for ' years and who have tried doctors, hospitals and patent medicines galore I without permanent benefit—can get < instant rtlief and insure painless nor- j Rial digestion by taking a teaspoonfui ' } of ordinary Bi-nesia In a little hot _ water immediately after eating." The ! authority for the above statement * who has spent years in European j ' countries investigating the results i c from the use of the product known j £ among druggists here as Bi-nesia, ; ( claims that the remarkable and in- i stant relief which almost invariably i follows its use is due to the fact that it neutralizes stomach acid and stops i ' food fermentation, tnus giving naturo , i a chanoe to proceed with its work j t without hindrance. He also related , < many instances of its successful use not only by doctors and hospitals, but ; nlso of Its widespread use by French, English and Italian soldiers at the c front; and expressed the belief that s every American soldier should carry \ a bottle of Bi-nesia in either powder j of tablet form ;.s a guarantee against those stomach complaints which so frequently follow hasty eating or the 1 use of imperfectly cooked food. Care * should be taken to insist on getting | the genuine Bi-nesia, which owing to its marvelous properties is now sold by druggists everywhere under a binding guarantee of satisfaction or money back. t IMPORTANT Tho Bi-nesia men- s tioned above is a harmless but won- t derfully effective remedy which you . can make at home or any druggist can prepare for you by mixing l\b b ounces bisoma carbonate with 1 ounce I magnesia carbonate. If, however, you f wish a guarantee of satisfaction or j money back, be sure to ask for an 8 original package of Bi-nesia.—Adver tisement.

Nothing could be more grossly or wantonly false, and we must seek by tho utmost openness and candor as to our real aims to convince them of its falseness. We are in fact fighting for their eman cipation from fear, along with our own, from tho fear as well as from the fact of unjust attack by neigh bors or rivals or schemers after world empire. No one is threaten ing the existence or the independ ence or the peaceful enterprise o£ the German empire. Partnership of Peoples The worst that can happen to the detriment of the German people is this, that if they should still, after the war is over, cofttinue to be obliged to live under ambitious and intriguing masters interested to dis turb the peace of the world, men or classes of men whom the other peoples of the world could not trust, it might be impossible to admit them to the partnership of nations which must henceforth guarantee the world's peace. That xiartnership must be a partnership of peoples, not a mere partnership of govern ments. It might be impossible also, in such untoward circumstances to admit Germany to the free economic intercourse which must inevitably spring out of the other partnerships of a real peace. But there would be no aggression in that; and such a situtattion, inevitable because or distrust, would in the very nature of things sooner or later cure itself, by processes which would assuredly set in. Wrongs Must Be Righted The wrongs, the very deep wrongs, committed in this war will have to be righted. That of course, cannot and must not be righted by the com mission of similar wrongs against Germany and her allies. The world will not permit the commission of similar wrongs as a means of repa ration and settlement. Statesmen must by this time have learned that the opinion of the world is every where wide awake and fully compre hends the issues involved. No rep resentative of any self governed na tion will dare disregard it by at tempting any such covenants of selfishness and compromise as were entered into at the congress of Vienna. The thought of the plain people here and everywhere through out the world, the people who enjoy no privilege and have very simple, and unsophisticated standards of right and wrong, is the air all gov ernments must henceforth breathe I if they would live. It is in the full' disclosing light of that thought that! all policies must be conceived and executed in this midday hour of the world's life. German rulers have been able to upset the people of the world only because the German peo ple were not suffered -under their tutelage to share the comradeship of the other peoples of the world > either in thought or in purpose. They wore allowed to have no I opinion of their own which might be 1 set up as a rule of conduct fQi- those who exercised authority over them 1 But the congress that concludes this war will feel the full strength of i the tides that run now in the hearts ! and conscience of free men every-1 where. Its conclusions will run ' with those tides. Russia Poisoned by Falsehoods All these things have been true from the very beginning of this stupendous war, and I cannot help thinking that if they had been made plain at the very outset the sympathy and enthusiasm of the Russian peo ple might have been once for all enlisted on the side of the allies, sus picion and distrust swept away and a real and Lasting union of purpose effected. Had they believed these things at the very moment of their revolution and had they been con firmed in that belief since, the sad reverses which have recently mark ed the progress of their affairs to wards an ordered and stable govern ment of free men might have been avoided. The Russian people have been poisoned by the very same falsehoods that have kept tho Ger man people In the dark and the poison had been administered bv the very same hands. The only pos sible antitode is tho truth. It'can not be uttered too plainly or too often. Attitude Not Altered Prom every point of view, there fore, it has seemed to be my duty to speak these declarations of purpose to add these specific interpretations, which I took the liberty of saying to the Senate in January. Our entranct into the war has not altered our at titude towards the settlement that must come when it is over. When I said in January that the nations of world were entitled not only to free pathways upon the sea but also to assured and unmolested access to those pathways, 1 was thinking, and 1 am thinking now, not of the small er and weaker nations alone, which need our countenance'and support, but also of the great and powerful nations and of our present enemies as well as our present associates in the war. I was thinking, and am thinking, now, of Austria herself, among tho rest, as well as of Serbia and of Poland. Justice and equality of rights can be had only at a great price. We are seeking permanent, not temporary, foundations for the peace of the world and must seek them candidly and fearlessly. As always, tne right will prove to be the expedi ent. What shall we do then, to push this great war of freedom and justice to its righteous conclusion? We must clear away with a thorough hand all impediments to success and we must make every adjustment of law that will facilitate the full and free use of our whole capacity and force as a lighting unit. One very embarrassing obstacle that stands in our way is that we are at war with Germany but not with her allies. I therefore very earnestly recommend that the Con gress immediately declare the United States in a state of war with Austria- Hungary. Does it seem strange to you that this should be the con clusion of the argument I have just addressed to you? It is not. It is in fact the inevitable logic of what 1 have said. Austria-Hungary is for the time being not her own mistress, but simply the vassal of the Ger man government. We must face the facts as they are and act upon them without sentiment in this stern business. The government of Aus tri-Hungary is not acting upon its own initiative or in response to the wishes and feelings of its own peo ples but a3 the instrument of an other nation. We must meet its force with our own and regard the Central Powers as but one. The war can be successfully conducted in ni other way. The same logic would lead also to a declaration of war against Turkey and Bulgaria. Thcj also are the tools of Germany But they are mere tools and do not yet stand in the direct path of our neces sary action. We shall go wherever the necessities of this war carry us, but it seems to me that we should go only where immediate and prac tical considerations lead us and not heed any others. The financial and military meas ures which must be adopted will sug gest themselves as the war and its undertakings develop, but I will take the liberty of proposing to you cer tain other acts of legislation which seem to me to be needed for '!'u support of the war and for the re lease of our whole for-30 arid energy. I Allen Knein.v Ix-gii>lMtJoii It will be necessary to extend in ceVtain particulars the legislation of the last session w lh regard to alien enemies; and also necessary, I believe to create a very detinue aiKl parti cular control over the ••n'.ranse and departure of all persons into and trom the United States. Legislation should be enacted de fining as criminal offend* every wil ful \ iolation of the Presidential proclamations relating to enemv J\ romillßa,p(l under Section 406? of the revised statutes and pro dding appropriate punishments: onj women as well as men, should bo included, under the terms of the a.?is placing restraints upon alien enemies. It is likely that as tima goec on manv alien enemies will be witling tc be fed and housed at the expense of the government in the detention camps and it would be thi. purpose of the legislation I have suggested to con fine offenders among them in peni tentiaries and o'lier similar inriltti tions where the.v could be made to work as other criminals do. Must ltcffulatc Prlws £ e ? t 4,? xp^rienco htls convinced! me that the Congress must go fur-i ther in authorizing the governmentl to set limits to prices. The law of. supply and demand, I am sormr to! say has been replaced by the law of unrestrained selfishness. While we have eliminated profiteering in sev eral branches of Industry it still I runs Impudently rampant In others.l The farmers, for example, complain ■ £ a Kreat <lea ' Justice that, while the regulation of food prices restricts their incomes, no restraints laced upon the prices of most of the things they must themselves purchase, and similar inequities ob tain on all sides. It is imperatively necessary that tlio consideration of the full use of the water power of the country and also the consideration of the syste matic and yet economical develop ment of such of the natural resources HAJRRISBURG TELEGRAPH of the country oh ore sttll under the control of the Federal government should be resumed and affirmatively and constructively dealt with at the earliest possible moment. The press ing nrod of such legislation 1b dally becoming more obvious, The legislation proposed at the last session with regard to regulated combinations among our exporters in order to provide for our foreign trade a more effective organization and method of co-operation, ought by all meuns to be completed at this session. To Centor Responsibility And I beg that the members ofj tho House of Representatives will permit me to express tho opinion that It will be Impossible to deal In{ uny way but a very wasteful and ex- | truvagant fashion with the enormous appropriations of tho public moneys which must continue to be made, If the war is to be properly sustained, unless the Ilouae will consent to return to its former practice of Ini tiating and preparing all appropria tion bills through a single commit toe In order that responsibility may be centered, expenditures standard ized and made uniform and waste and duplication as much as possible avoided. Railway Legislation Additional legislation may also be come necessary before the present Congress adjourns in order to ef fect the most efficient co-ordination and operation of the railway and other transportation systems of the country: but to that I shall, if cir cumstances should demand, call tho attention of Congress upon another occasion. ir I have overlooked anything that ought to be done for the more ef fective conduct of the war, your own counsels will supply the omission. What I am perfectly clear about is that in the present session of the Congress our whole nttentio.i and j energy should be concentrated on the vigorous and rapid and success- ; fui prosecution of the great task of winning the war. War of High Principle We can do this with all the greater zeal and enthusiasm because we know that for us this is a war of high principle, debased by no selfish ambition of conquest or spoliation; because we know, and all the world knows, that we have been fcrced into It to save the very in stitutions we live under from cor ruption and destruction. The pur poses of the central powers strike straight at the very heart of every thing we believe In; their methods of warfare outrage every principle i of humanity and of knightly honor; j their intrigue has corrupted the] very thought and spirit of many of I our people; their sinister and secret! diplomacy has sought to take ourj very territory away from us and disrupt the Union of the States. Our 1 safety would be at an end, our honor I forever sullied and through con tempt were we to permit their triumph. By striking at the very ex istence of democracy and liberty. It is because it is for us a war of high, disinterested purpose, in which all the free peoples of the world are banded together for the vindication of right, a war for the preservation of our nation and of all that it has held dear of principle and of pur pose, that we feel ourselves doubly constrained to propose for its out come only that which is righteous and of irreproachable intention, for our foes as well as for our friends. The cause being just and holy, the settlement must be of like motive and quality. For this we can tight, but for nothing less noble or less worthy of our traditions. For this cause we entered the war and for this cause will we battle until the last gun Is fired. Time to Speak Plainly j I have spoken plainly because this j seems to me the time when it is most necessary to speak plainly, in order that all the world may know that even in the heat and ardor of the struggle and when our whole thought is of carrying the war through to its end we have not for gotten any ideal or principle for which the name of America has been held in honor among the nations and lor which it has been our glory to contend in the great generations that went before us. A supreme moment of history has come. The e> es of the peoplo have been opened and they see. The hand of God is laid upon the nations. He will show them favor, I devoutly believe, only if they rise to the clear heights of ills own justice and mercy.

To Ward Off Winter Complexion Ills To keep the face smooth, white and beautiful all winter, there's nothing quite so good as ordinary mercolized ' w , a . x ' Rough, chapped or discolored ! skin, inevitable in this weather, is' gently absorbed by the wax and re- I placed by the newer, fresher skin be- I neath. The face exhibits no trace of I the wax, the latter being applied at! bedtime and washed off mornings. I Creams, powders and roughs, on the I other hand, arc apt to appear con spicuous at this season, because of al ternating expansion and contraction of the skin due to changing tempera tures. You are advised to try this simple treatment. Get an ounce of mercolized wax at any drugstore and use like cold cream. This will help any skin at once, and in a week or so the complexion will look remark ably youthful and healthy. Winds and flying dust often cause squinting and other contortions which make wrinkles. You can quickly get rid of every wrinkle, however pro duced, by using a harmless face bath made by dissolving one ounce powd- ' ered saxolite in one-half pint witch!' hazel. \ RACE PROBLEMS TO BE DISCUSSED AT BIG MEETING Colored Leaders to Look After Men Coming Here From the South | Colonel Koscoe Conklin Simmons, I of Kentucky, a wldoly-known stu dent and colored orator, will apeak I l 'S f ° re me ®tlng of tho colored race | of Steelton and llarrlsburg In the City Gray's Armory, Friday even ing.

Try Magnesia for your Stomach Trouble It Neutralize! Stomach Acidity, Prevent* Pood Fermentation, Drives Out Gnu, Stops Indigestion. Doubtless if you are a sufferer from Indigestion, you have already tried pepsin, bismuth, sooa, charcoal, drugs und various digestive aids and you know these things will not cure your trouble—in some cases do not even give relief. But before giving up hope and de ciding you are a chronic dyspeptic just try the effect of a little bisurated magnesia—not the ordinary commer cial carbonate, citrate, oxide or milk but the pure li| H nrate<l magnesia which you can obtain from Geo A Gorgas or practically any druggist in either powdered or tablet form. Take a teaspoonful of the powder or two compressed tablets with a little water after your next meal, and see what a difference this makes. It will instantly neutralize the dangerous harmful acid in the stomach which now causes your food to ferment and sour, making gas, wind, flatulence heartburn and the bloated or heavy lumpy feeling that seems to follow most everything you eat. You will find that provided you take a little bisurated magnesia Immedi ately after a meal, yoD can eat almost anything and enjoy it without any danger of pain or discomfort to fol low and moreover the continued use of the bisurated magnesia cannot In jure the stomach In any way so long I as there are any symptoms of acid in digestion.—Advertisement.

Attack on Mormonilm Starts Free-For-All Fight Pittsburgh, Pa., Deo. 4. —lncensed I by nttaclis upon tlieir faith, Pitts burgh members of the Mormon church stampeded last night's ses sion of the National Reform Associa tion convention in tho Smithfleld M.

Mormon literature was scat tered through the church and forced Into the hands of the delegates at tending the Reform Association con vention. The Mormons' action came after a bitter attack on the Mormon faith by Miss Lula Shepard, of Salt Lake City, in which she charac terized Joseph S. Smith as the "Kaiser of America, who is trying to start a civil war between the East and the West." Immediately after her address. Mormon missionaries forced them selves into the church and started rushing through the aisles, throwing Mormon literature left and right and forcing it Into the hands of the dele gates. The cenvention was adjourn ed by the presiding officer, and the delegates started to leave the church They were surrounded by Mormon missionaries, who gesticulated and shouted. Several threw off their coats, and it was feared a free-for-all tight was about to start. The police were then called. Businessmen to Work For Y.M.C. A.
