discussion in certain quarters" SAYS
the Liverpool Post
"One can imagine many being spec
tally disappointed when he says that
with the causes and objects OF war the
United States has no concern. To US,
who believe we are opposing an at
tempt at world domination. II is hard
to believe that the cause for which we
stand is not of some concern to the
great republic of the west"
The Pail Mall Gazette considers pres
ident Wilson's declaration that the
United States is willing TO become a
Partner in any feasible association Of
nations a momentous one. and asserts
that Great Britain's record for A cen
fury is an endorsement Of his sugges-
ton for establishing the security Of the
highways Of the seas Il adds that IL
the president means sea power in war
is 10 be reduced or limited in such n
way as to deprive US of our principal
weapon and means of defence. we
should naturally have a good deal to
say on that subject"
Pointing out that an association

vent any nation from committing an
