...country today should provoke intelligent discussion on an entirely opposite basis. The intense feeling of political antagonism that was rampant last fall ought to be non-existent now, when instead of the magnified aims of a particular faction being in the balance, the cherished honor and rights of the whole nation are at stake. Political affiliations and party differences should be forgotten, and every Democrat, Republican, Socialist and Prohibitionist should regard themselves as members of one organization, the American Party, whose single aim is the honorable performance of this country's grave responsibilities...

...call for the mobilization of a half-million men. The response is not doubtful; twice that number could probably be enlisted within a very short time. But the sudden withdrawal of so large a body from the productive activities of the country would almost surely upset our whole economic organization, all the more so because those who are most needed in industry or transportation would be among the first to respond in case of a general call for enlistments. In this matter the costly experience of England should have taught us a lesson, but it has not done...
