THE only railroad job we ever

and everywhere throughout the
world the people who enjoy 40 priv
ilese and have very simple and un-
sophisticated standards Of right and
wrong, is the air all governments
must henceforth breathe if they
would live. 1t is in the full disclos-
ing light of that thought that all poll
clos must be conceived and executed
in this midday hour Of the worlds
life.
40 Opinion Allowed German People.
German rulers have been able to
unset the peace Of the world only
because the German people were not
suffered under their tutelage to share
the comradeship of the other peoples
OF the world either In thought or in
purpose. They were allowed to have
no opinion Of their own which might
be set up as rule of conduct for
those who exercised authority over
them. But the congress that con-
cludes this war will feel The full

the hearts and consciences Of free
men everywhere. Its conclusions will
run with those tides.
All these things have been true
from the very beginning Of this stu
rendous war; and l cannot help
thinking that if they had been made
plain at the very outset the sympathy
and enthusiasm of the Russian peo-
plo might have been once for all ell
listed on the side of the allies, sus-
picions and distrust swept away, and
a real and lasting union Of purpose
effected. Had they believed these
things at the very moment OF their
revolution and had they been con-
i!rmed in that belief since, the sad
rcverses which have recently marked
the progress Of their affairs towards
an ordered and stable government Of
free men might have been avoided.
, The Russian people have been poi
soned by the very same falsehoods
that have kept the German people in
the dark, and the poison has been
administered by the very same hands.
The only possible antidote is the
truth. 1t cannot be uttered too

plainly or too often.
From every point of view, there
iore,- it has seemed to be my duty to
speak these declarations Of purpose,
to add these specific Interpretation
10 what l took the liberty Of saying
10 the Senate in January. Our en-
trance into the war has not altered
our attitude towards the settlement
that must come when it Is over.
When I said in January that the ma
tons of the world were entitled not
only to free pathways on the sea, but
also to assured and unmolested ac-
co*s to those pathways l was think
lh4, and l am thinking now, not of
the smaller and weaker nations
alone, which need our countenance
and support, but also OF the great
and powerful nations, and Of our
present associates in the war. I was
thinking, and am thinking now, Of
Austria herself, among the rest, as
we'll as OF Serbia and Of Poland. Jus
tico and equality of rights can be
had only at great price. We are
seeking permanent, not temporary,
foundations for the peace of the
world and must seek them candidly
ana fearlessly. AS always, the right
viii prove to be the expedient.
War Against tAustria-Hungary.
What sbMl we do then to push this
great war of freedom and Justice to
It's righteous conclusion? We must

sire to dictate to them in any way
We only desire to see that their af-
fairs are left in their hands, in all
matters, great or small. We shall
hope to secure for the peoples OF the
Balkan Peninsula and for the people
Of the Turkish Empire the right aud
opportunity to make their own lives
safe, their own fortunes secure
against oppression or injustice and
from the .dictation OF foreign courts
or parties.
And our attitude and purpose With
regard to Germany herself are of a
like kind. We intend no wrong
against the German Empire, no in
terference with her internal affairs.
We should deem either the one or
the other absolutely unjustinahle,
absolutely contrary to the principles
we have professed to live by and to
hold most sacred throughout our lie
as a nation.
The people Of Germany are being
told by the men whom they now per
nit 10 deceive them and to act rs
their masters that they are fighting
for the very life and existence Of
their Empire, a war of desperate SELF
defense against deliberate aggression.
Nothing could be more grossly or
wantOnly false, and we must seek
by the utmost <openness >and candor
as to our real aims to convince them
OF its falseness. We are in fact fight
ing for their emancipation from fear,
along with our own-frOm the fear
as we'll rs from the fact of unjust at
tack by neighbors or rivals or schem-
ers after world empire. No one is
threatening the existence or the indie
pendence or the peaceful enterprise
of the German Empire.
Worst for German People.
The worst that can happen to the
detriment of the German people IS
this. that If they should still, after
the war is over, continue to be oblig-
ed to live under ambitious and in
triguing masters interested to dis
turb the peace of the world, men or
classes Of men whom the otL9y peo-
pies of the world could not tr. st, it

might be impossible to admit them
to the partnership of nations which
must henceforth guarantee the
worlds peace. That partnership
must be partnership Of peoples, not
a mere partnership Of governments.
1t might be impossible, also, IN suct
untoward circumstances, to admit
Germany to the free economic inter
course which must inevitably spring
out Of the other partnerships OF 4
real peace. But there would be no
aggression in that; and such situ-
alton, inevitable because OF distrUst.
would in the very nature Of things
sooner or later cure itself by pro-
cesses which would assuredly set in.
The wrongs, the very deep wrongs,
committed in this war will have TO
be righted That, Of course. Iut
they cannot and must not be lighted
by the commission of similar wrongs
against Germany and her allies. The
world will not permit the commission
Of similar wrongs as means OF
reparation and settlement. States
men must by this time have learned
that the opinion OF the world is
everywhere wide-awake and fully
comprehends the issues involved No
representative of any self-governed
nation will dare disregard it by At
tempting any such covenants OF self
ishness and compromise as were en-
tered into at the Congress Of Vienna.

Reference to Congress OF Vienna.

The congress Of Vienna, to which
President Wilson referred in his mes
sage to-day, was held from Septem-
Der, 1 814, to June, 1916, for the pur-
pose OF settling tho affairs of Europe
at the close Of the Napoleonic wars.
1t was attended by the monarchs of
Russia, Prussia, Austria, Denmark
and Bavaria and various smaller
German States, and by representa-
tives OF England, France and Bel
GUM.
Among its chief stipulations were:
The retention by France of the boun-
daries existing at the outbreak OF the
French revolution, the restoration OF
the Austrian monarchy without Bel
GUM, Bresgau and West Galicia,
but with the addition of Venetia and
Dalmatia; the formation Of the Ger
man confederation under the hege-
mony OF Austria; the creation Of
new Poland under the Russian dynas-
ty; the establishment Of kingdom
OF The Netherlands, including Hol-
laQd and Belgium; the retention Of
Norway by Spain; the retention OF
FINLAND by Russia, and the recon
struction Of the Swiss confederacy
with enlarged limits.
Under these stipulations many
races were brought under the soves-
eighty Of rulers Of different nation
ality.

ton and operation Of the railway and
other transportation systems of the
country, but to that l shall, if circum-
stances should demand, call the at
tenti0n OF the Congress upon another
occasion.
If have overlooked anything that
ought to be done for the more effect
tive conduct Of the war, your own
oounsels will supply the omission.
What am perfectly clear about is
that in the present session Of the
Congress our whole attention and
energy should be concentrated on the
vigorous, rapid and successful pros
ecution Of the great task Of winning
the war.
We can do this with all the greater
zeal and enthusiasm, because we
know that for us this is a war of high
principles, based by no selfish ambi-
ton OF conquest or spoliation; be-
cause we know, and all the world
knows, that we have been forced into
it to save the very institutions we
live under from corruption and de-
struction. The purposes of the CEN
tral powers strike straight at the
very heart OF everything we believe
in; their methods of warfare out
rage every principle Of humanity and
of knightly honor; their intrigue has
corrupted the very thought and spirit
Of many Of our people; their sinister
and secret diplomacy has sought to
take our very territory away from
us and disrupt the union of the
States Our safety would be at an
end, our honor forever sullied and
brought into contempt were we to
permit their triumph. They are
striking at the very existence of de-
mocracy and liberty.
War Of High Purpose.
1t is because it is for us war, of
high, disinterested purpose, in which
all the free peoples Of the world are
banded together for the vindication
of right, war for the preservation
OF our nation and Of all that it has
held dear of principle and Of purpose,
that we feel ourselves doubly con-
strained to propose for its outcome
only that which Is righteous and OF
irreproachable intention, for our
foes as we'll as forsour friends. The
cause being just and holy, the set
tlement must be Of like motive and
quality. For this we can fight, but
for nothing less noble or less wor-
thy of our traditions. For this cause
we entered the war, and for this
cause we will battle until tho last
gun iS fired.
have spoken plainly becansc this
seems TO me the time whon il is most
necessary TO speak plainly, Iii order
that all the world may know that
even in the heat and ardor Of the
struggle, and when our thought Is OF
carrying the war through to It's end
we have not forgotten any ideal or
principle for which the name of
America has been ileld in honor
among the nations and for which it
has been our glory to contend. in the
great generations that went before
us. A supreme moment OF history
has come. The eyes of the people
have been opened and they see. The
hand Of God is laid upon the nations.
He will show them favor, I devoutly
believe, only If they rise to the clear
he1ghts! of His own justice and
mercy.
