Woodrow Wilson: “In the “Wealth of Nations” every apparent induction leads to self-interest, and to self-interest alone.”

I am in full sympathy with every sound proposal to promote foreign trade along sound business lines.

A court shall not, by a single sentence which does not include dishonorable discharge, adjudge against a soldier:

No provision is made in the resolution for the preservation of any proportionate strength in the combatant corps of the Army.

I am not convinced that the method proposed is wise, that the benefits, if any, would offset the evils which would result, or that the same or larger advantages cannot be secured without resort to Government intervention.
