The text reviews Viereck’s 2500 word statement praising President Wilson for neutrality. It credits Wilson’s perceived awakening after his Charlotte speech and argues Viereck links Wilson’s shift to German-American influence. It notes Viereck’s view that Britain’s submarine policy, mixed with political pressures, nudged Wilson toward nonbelligerence.

Aero Club Blames War Department Over Army Air Plans
In a letter to Aero Club president Alan Hawley, Julius Kahn, ranking House Military Affairs member, faults the War Department for failing to fund adequate aeroplanes in the new army bill. He notes Secretary Baker recommended $1,222,100 for the Signals aviation section for 1917, and Congress approved it, urging more funds if the department supports more aircraft. The Aero Club of America had sought $5,000,000 for army aviation and related activities.
