NATION WILL PRAY
FOR PEACE OCT. 4TH
President Si^ns Proclamation
to This Effect.
ASKS CHRISTIANS TO PRAY
To Kepair to Their llespective Places
of Worship and I'nite in
Supplication.
Washington, Sept. 8.?Preisdent
Wilson today signed a proclamation
calling on the people of the United
States to pray for peace in Europe.
The President's proclamation follows:
"Whereas, great nations of the
world have taken up arms against
one another and war now draws millions
of men into battle when the
counsel of statesmen have not been
able to save from the terrible sacrifice.
"And, whereas, in this as in all
things, it is our privilege and duty to
seek counsel and succor of Almighty
God. humbling ourselves before Him.
confessing our weakness and our
lack of any wisdom equal to these
things.
"And. whereas, it is the especial
wish and longing of the people of
the United States, in prayer and
counsel and all friendliness, to serve
the cause of peace.
"Therefore, I. Woodrow Wilson,
President of the I'nited States of
\merica, do designate Sunday, the
4th day of October next, a day of
prayer and supplication and do request
all God-fearing persons to repair
on that day to their places of
worship, there to unite their petitions
to Almighty God, that overruling
the counsel of men, setting
straight the things they cannot govern
or alter, taking pity on the natinns
now in the throes of conflict, in
His mercy and goodness showing a
way where men can see none. He
vouchsafe His children healing peace
again and restore once more that
concord among men and nation?
without which there can be neither
happiness nor true friendship noi
any wholesome fruit of toil 01
thought in the world; praying alsc
to this end that He forgive us out
sins, our ignorance of His holy will
our wilfulness and many errors, an*'
lead us in the paths of obedience tr
places of vision and to thoughts anc
counsels that purge and make wise
"In witness whereof I have here
unto set my hand, and caused th<
seal of the United States to b<
afflved,
"Done at the city of Washingtoi
this 8th day of September, in th<
year of our Lord one thousand, nin<
hundred and fourteen, and of the in
dependence of the United States o
America the one hundred and thirty
ninth.

hundreds of thousands of young met
have been killed or wounded in the
European war during the past fe*v
weeks: I do not see any prospect ol
stopping the war until hundreds o
thousands (possibly millions) raon
are killed and wounded. In the

to a great extent are shut down. I

The portion of the United State
making foodstuffs will probably ren
a financial benefit. I think we shoul
immediately take steps to inereas
the production of foodstuffs in thi
state. We should sow wheat an
( vetch, oats and vetch, rye, clover, an
, oats between our cotton rows. Th

advantage, and should sow quant
t ties of wheat. Every farmer, an
every man about town who has

There is another problem, ho*
ever, which, though in no wise i
'serious as the first, is none the le
worth considering. The Unft<
States imports some two billion dr

1 large portion ol them coming fro

e i tries involved are our source of su

s ' and, perhaps, in some instant
! crushed. This condition though ei
s: barrassing at the outset, shou
p|serve as a stimulus to American e
d | ergy and invention. The WaBhin
