President Wilson, in his 1 n
diauapolis speech characterized
"business depression" us a
"state of mind." That's it. Peo-
ple stampede at the cry of
'panic" like rauge c .ttle at sight
of' a man on foot
Among other necessary meas-
ures, PresidentWilsou in his In-
diana speech favored a Federal
Employment Bureau. Such an
institution, coupled with tin; plac
ing of a ban on questionable pri-
vate employment agencies, would
l>o a great benefit to both em-
ployer and employe.

In his speech at Indianapolis.
Ind., on Jan. *t h, President Wi'
son lived up to his previous ree
ord as being a man of deep
thought and careful eonse>,,'at.ivo
jhdgment. Among ot e.'i a or*
of vital interest touched upon b.v
the president was a declaration
that he did not believe this nation
had a right to interfere in Mexi
eo; that ho favored the ship pur
chase bill; that republican claims
of ascendency in the last election
were false; that it would beproii
table for Americans to pay more
attention to home interest-, a'.d
less to the European .ar: tve <u.

noted a revival of business as re-
suit of policies inaugurated by
the democratic party and that
the usual January tension was
prevented through tin- Federal
Reserve Board.
Each and all those matters
were handled with that concise-
ness characteristic of the man,
and wlunhesaid: "There may
come a time when the Amer-
ican people will have to judge
whether I know what I am
talking about or not," a
round of applause greeted him
which indicated that those
who heard him realized that "the
man of the hour" .stood be fare
them.
Taken as a whole the Presi-
dent's speech was a piece of
sound democratic doctrine from
start to finish.

Government to carry out its ob-
ligations, not only among the
nations of the earth, but with
the humblest citizen of our land.
Two important results have
followed; thousands of people
largely of foreign birth, accus-
tomed to send savings abroad
are now patrons of our pos-
tal savings system; and enor-
mous sums of actual cash have
been released forcommercial uses
among our own people at a time
when the need for every availa-
ble dollar is pressing.
The growth of postal savings
in the I'nited States has been
steady and healthy and the sys
to in has tilled an important gap
between the tin can depository

ings standing to the credit of
about D'-^ooo depositors. Since
then over 10,000,(NK) of deposits
have been added and thenumber
of depositors has increased enor-
mously. This unprecedented
gain is the more striking when
it is considered that the net
gain in the last three months is
larger than the gain for the en
tire fiscal year 101 I. Scores of
offices have done more postal
savings business since the war
has been going on than was done
l>v them during the previous ex-
istence of the service. The in
crc'ises are confined to no special
ocahties, but have been felt in
every nook and corner of the
country. New York City alone
