PRESIDENT ASKS CONGRESS TO SAY
WAR STATE EXISTS WITH GERMANY
Wants Nation to Help the
Entente Allies Whip
Kaiser.
It-
autocracy WORLD MENACE
America Enters the Struggle to
Aid in Saving Freedom for
Democracies.
Washington. In what has been de
scribed on all sides as one of the great
state papers of American history,
President Wilson addressed the sennto
and house In Joint session Monday
night and asked for a declaration of a
state of war with Germany.
He based his assertions thnt the
kaiser's government Is alreudy con
ducting hostilities against the United
States on Germany's unrestricted sub
marine warfore, on the widespread and
destructive Germnn spy system In this
country which has destroyed prop
erty and sought to Intrigue Mexico and
Japan against us and on the bloody
ambition tf Prussian autocracy to do
minate the world of self-governing
peoples,
And t& the end thnt this autocratic
power may be defeated and the safety
of peace-loving nations assured, Mr,
Wilson called upon' congress to em
ploy all the resources of the United
States to whip Germany. He urged
entire co-operation with the entente
allies with men, money and supplies,
and he recommended Jhe recruiting of
tne regular army and National Guard
to more than half a million and the
raising of nn additional 500,000 mili
tary force by applying a univer
sal service law.
Most notable In the president's ad
dress was the section devoted to an
Indictment of Prussian autocracy and
professional militarism. He snld:
Our object now is to vindicate the
principles of pence and of Justice In
the life of the world as against selfish
and autocratic power and to' set up
amongst the really free and self -gov
erned peoples of the world such a con
cert of purpose and of action as will
henceforth Insure the observance of
those principles.
Neutrality. Not Feasible.
Neutrality Is no longer feasible or
desirable when the peace of the world
Is Involved and the freedom of Its
peoples, and the menace to that pence
and freedom lies tn the existence of au
tocratic governments backed by organ
ised force which Is controlled wholly
by their will, not by the will of their
people. We have seen the last of neu
trallty In such circumstances.
We are at the beginning of an age
In which It will be insisted that the
same standards of conduct and of re
sponsibility for wrong done shall be ob
served among nations and their gov
ernments that are observed among the
Individual citizens of civilized states.
No Quarrel With People.
We have no quarrel with the Germon
people. We have no feeling toward
them but one of sympnthy and friend
ship. It was not upon their Impulse
thnt their government acted In enter
ing this war. It was not with their
previous knowledge or approval.
It was war determined upon as wars
used to be determined on In the old,
unhappy days when peoples were no
where consulted by their rulers and
wars were provoked and waged In the
Interest of dynasties or of little groups
of ambitious men who were accustomed
to uso their fellow men as pawns and
tools.
A steadfast concert for pence can
never be mnlntnlned except by a part
nership of democratic nations. No au
tocratic government could be trusted to
keep faith within it or observe Its cov
enants. It must be a league of honor,
partnership of opinion.
Only free peoples can hold their
purpose and their honor steady to a
common end and prefer the Interests
of mankind to any narrow Interest of
their own.
Does not every American feel that
assurance has been added to our
hope for the future peace of the
world by the wonderful and hearten-
ng things that have been happening
within the Inst few weeks In Russia?
Intrigued Against National Unity.
One of the things that have served
to convince us thnt the Prusslnn au
tocracy was not and could never be
our friend Is that from the very outset
of the present war It has filled our un
suspecting communities and even our
offices of government with spies and
set criminal Intrigues everywhere afoot
against our national unity of counsel,
our pence within and without, our In
dustries and our commerce.
Indeed, It Is now evident thnt its
spies wore here even before the war
began ; and it Is unhappily not a mat
ter of conjecture, but a fuct proved
In our courts of Justice that the In
trigues which have more thnn once
come perilously near to disturbing the
peace and dislocating the Industries of
the country hnve been carried on at
the Instigation, with the support, and
even under the personal direction of
ollklnl agents of the Imperial govern
ment accredited to the government of
the United States.

But thtry have played their port In

MINES TO PROTECT NEW YORK

to Protect the Great Metropolis
and Its Harbor.
New York, April 5. Two enormous
mine fields will assist In protecting the
port of New York In the event of war
with Germany.
They ore said to be the most elabo
rate and Intricate mine fields a na
tion has ever devised. Foreign mili

Intercepted note to the Germnn minis
ter at Mexico City is eloquent evi
dence. We ore accepting this challenge of
hostile purpose because we know that
lu such a government, following such
methods, we can never have a friend,
and that In the presence of Ms organ
ized power, always lying In wait to ac
complish we know not what purpose,
there can be uo assured security for
the democratic governments of the
world.
We are now nbout to accept gage
of battle with this natural foe to lib
erty and shall, If necessary, expend the
whole force of the nation to check and
nullify Its pretensions and Its power.
No False Pretense.
We are glad, now that we see the
facts with no veil or false pretense
about them, to fight thus for the ulti
mate peace of the world nnd for the
liberation of Its people, the Germnn
peoples Included ; for the rights of na
tions great and small, and the priv
ilege of men cvci-ywtere to choose
their way of life rn.il o." obedience.
The world must be mode safe for
democracy. Its peace must be planted
upon the tested foundations of politi
cal liberty.
We desire no conquest, no dominion.
We seek no Indemnities for ourselves,
no material compensation for tho sac
rifice we shall freely make.
We are but one of the champions of
the rights of mankind. We shall be
satisfied when those rights hnve been
mnde as secure as the fulth and the
freedom of nations can make them.
Just because we fight, without ran
cor nnd without selfish object, seek
ing nothing for ourselves but what we
shall wish to share with all free peo
ple's, we shall, I feel confident, conduct
our operation on belligerents without
passion nnd ' ourselves observe with
proud punctilio the principles of right
nnd of fulr play we profess to be fight
ing for.
Regarding the details of war meas
ures, Mr. Wilson said:
"It will involve tho utmost practi
cal co-operation In counsel nnd action
with the governments now at war with
Germany nnd, as Incident to thnt, the
extension to those governments of the
most liberal credit, In order that our
resources may be added to theirs.
Resources.
"It will Involve the organization and
mobilization of all the material re
sources of the country to supply the
materials of war and serve the Inci
dental needs of the nation In the most
abundant and yet the most economical
and efficient way possible.
The Navy.
"It will Involve the immediate full
equipment of the navy In all respects,
but particularly In supplying It with
the best means of dealing with the
enemy's submarines.
The Army.
"It will involve the Immediate addi
tion to the armed forces of the United
States already provided for in ense of
war at least 500,000 men, who should,
In my opinion, be chosen upon tho
principle of universal Hublllty to serv-
Ice, and also the authorization of sub
sequent additional Increment of equal
force so soon as they may be needed
and can be handled In training.
Finance.
"It will Involve the granting ade
quate credits to the government, sus-
talned, I hope, so fnr ns they can equi
tably be sustained by the present gen'
eration, by well conceived tnxatlon.
. . . It seems to me that It would
be most unwise to have the credits
which will now be necessary entered
on borrowed money.
Munitions.
we snouia interfere as little as
possible . . . wtth the duty for It
will be a very practical duty of sup
plying the nations already at war with
Germany with the material which they
can obtain only from us."
Referring once more to the attitude
of America toward tho RTent German
people as distinguished from the
warmnd and blood-lusty autocracy, the
president declared:
To Germans In America.
We are, let me say again, the sin
cere friends of the German people, nnd
shall desire nothing so much us the
early re-establishment of Intimate re
lations of mutual advantage between
us, however hard It may be for them
for the tlne being to believe that this
Is spoken from our hearts. We have
borne with their present government
through nil these bitter months be
cause of that friendship, exercising d
patience nnd forbearauce which would
otherwlso have been Impossible.
we snan, nnppuy, still nave an p-
portunlty to prove that friendship In
our dally attitude and actions toward
the millions of men and women of
German birth and nntlve symputhy
who live among us and share our life,
and we shall be proud to prove It to
ward all who are In fact loyal to their
neighbors and to the government In
the hour of test. They are, most of
them, ns true and loyal Americans as
If they had never known any other
fenlty or allegiance. They will be
prompt to stand with us In rebuking
nnd restraining the few who mny be
of a different mind and purpose.
If there should be disloyalty It vr!U
be dealt with with a firm hand of Ntorn
repression, but, If It lifts head nt all it
will lift It only here ond there and
without countenance except from a
lawless and malignant few.

herd: the good Shepherd glveth Ills life
for the sheep. John 10:11.
This lesson probnbly occurred at
the Feast of the Tabernacle In Octo
ber, A. D. 20. The place was Jeru
salem, perhaps In or nenr the temple.
Facts, pictures and Illustrations re
garding eastern shepherd life can bo
used effectively in teaching the lesson.
The true tencher must Impart, develop
nnd protect. JeSus does nil of theso
things.
I. Jesus, the Door (vv. 1-0).. Any
one who tries to get access to the
nheep any other way than through
Jesus the door Is n thief nnd n rob
her (v. 1). A door Is nn Invitation to
enter, to Investigate, to purchase, to
learn, to meet others. It Is the prope
entrance. To go In through. any otbc
wny arouses suspicion. It Is also
means of safety to control those who
enter; It can be closed In case of dan
ger, and Is strong to protect against
storms and thieves. It Is a means of
separation, to Insure privacy, and to
furnish a means of egress. Jesus says
we are to "go In" for communion with
God, nnd to "go out" for service, to
"go In" for strength nnd to "go out'
for conflict. Verse nine Is n wonder
fill verse. In It we have the simplic
ity of the Gospel, "I am the door;"
the excluslveness of the Gospel, "By
me," the conditions of the Gospel, "En
ter In ;" the certainty, "Be saved ;" the
liberty, "Go In nnd out;" the provlS'
Ion, "Find pasture."
Tho true acceptance of Jesus leads
not to n life of fenr nnd constraint
but to the perfect liberty of a child
satisfaction In green postures fTs. 23
2) that never fall (Rev. 7:10-17). The
world's richest pasture lands are bleak
nnd barren wildernesses In comparison
with this. Christ Is the door to other
things not mentioned In this lesson
(See John 14:0; Kph. 2:18; Rom. 6:1
Hen. 10:19-22). By him we enter
the room of the knowledge of God.
The Chrlstlnn's business Is to know
God and to make him known. ,
II. Jesus, the Good Shepherd (vv,
10-18). It Is not enough to be a door.
A door has no volition. It cannot lea
Its place. A shepherd can go In nml
out. A fnlse Christ nnd false shep
herd are renlly thieves nnd robbers
who come to "Steal nnd kill and de
stroy." On the .other hand, Jesus'
mission wns a glorious one, "I came
that they might have life, and thnt
they might have It more nbundantly.'
As n good Shepherd (1) he has cour
age (v. 1). Jesus wns not only win
lug, but nctunlly did give his life for
the sheep. He had love for all of the
sheep, and wns willing to seek the lost
(Matt. 18:12). He also had confl
denee, due to his knowledge of God (v
14). This Is not nudnclty but quiet
confidence due to experience. lie
knows the proper pastures. He knows
where to find water for tho sheep, Ila
knows the dangers nnd pitfalls along
the pnthwny. He knows how to tll-
reet our efforts. Sunday school tench
ers who are follrtwlng In the steps of
the master, nnd who perform tho nets
of n good shepherd, must pay the
price of knowledge, (2) Jesus had
character (v. 15). He was right In
the sight of God, but In order to bt
right In tho sight of God he must nlst
be right In the sight of men. God ex'
peels results. The church expects re
suits from us. The parents who trust
their children to our teaching expect
results. A sheep does not live for It
self. It lives for others. Unless It
produces wool, nnd Is good for meat.
It has existed In vain; ro God, man
nnd the church expect of us, ns under-
shepherds, thnt we shall produce re
sults. This we do not hnve to do In
our own strength for nny of us may
have the life which Is "abundant" nnd
'exceeding" nnd "beyond measure.'
The question Is, have we this super
abundant life? (See I Pet. 1:8; John
1:15; Col. 1:10; Eph. 3:10-19).
Doctor Torrey has cnlled our atten
tion to ten points about the good Shep
herd. (1) He knows the sheep. (2)
He Is known by his sheep. (3) lie has
n personal Interest In his sheep, calls
each by name (v. 3). (4) He lendeth
them on. (5) He thrusts forth the
laggard sheep (v. 4). (0) He over
looks none; nil are his own (v. 4 It.
V.). (7) He goeth before them. He
has trodden evry step of the way that
they must toi . (8). He enreth for
tho sheep (v. 13 (9) He lnyetlf down
bis life for the sheep (vv. 11 ami 15).
(10) Glveth eternal and nbiindant life
to the sheep (vv. 10, 2S, 29).
Jesus has sheep outside, of Israel (v.
10). When these nre brought In they
will all become one fold (Koh. 2:14,
15; Gal. 3:28). It Is through hearing
his voice that they are to he brought.
Tho laying down of his life wns a vol
untary act on his pnrt. but It was per
formed In obedience to the father's
ivlll (See Chap. 6:38; 15:10). Jesus
Intended that his relation to his fol
lowers should be exactly like that
ivhlch bound himself to the Father (See
Chap. 17:21-23). Because the Father
loved him he lays down his life that
he might take it again.
If the Shepherd had remained In the
grave, what would have become of
tho sheep?
He had power to lay It down ; be him
power to tako It again.
Even so we nre to forfeit our lives,
but Christ's life has passed through
the trial, nnd so he has a right to lay
It down nnd to take It up ngaln.
Tho commandment which Jesus re
ceived from tho Father was not to die, I
but to assume absolute authority over
life nnd death.
This love of the Good Shepherd led
him to dlo for our sins, and to be
raised for our Justification.
