sions provided for in the peace
that is to come in Europe, If that

son, expressed by him in an inn
portant address made last night

looked forward to with the keen
est attention by the world, mas
rch as it had been expected that
President Wilson would give
some suggestion Of the terms of
peace acceptable by the various
belligerents, as he may have re-
ceived them con6dentially.
The President told the league
that he, as representing the Unit

any feasible association Of the ma
tons to preserve, with force AZ
necessary, the peace of the world
against political ambition and

provision providing for the alb

hostilities. &s... r. IN.
The peace Of the world de-
ponds henceforth on a new and a

clared the President, who gave
what he believed to be things to

these he mentioned:
Every people has the right to
choose the sovereignty under
