TO CONQUER ARMIES,
NOT TO GAIN LAND
That is the Purpose of the United States,
According to Declaration BY League
for National Unity.

New York, Dee. 22--The league TO

committee, in which all efforts toward q
premature peace are condemned and the
determination of continuing the war un

"though not his territory or population
We intend to nullify the power of the
! imperial government We do not intend
that it shall gain, at the expense Of 9TH
er natons, either an enlargement of ter
ritory' or an expansion OF industrial and
commercial opportunities or an increase
of prestige"
when German military Teverses oblit
crate past victories and the war map
becomes unfavorable, no doubt some of
the German parties will begin to consider
the peace principles of world democracy"
the statement concludes. But no infu.
entail German party yet sees coming de-
feat There is, therefore, as yet no com
mon ground for discussion between the
partisans of might and the partisans OF

1.-The imperial German government,
foled in its plan to cripple the great
self governing nations of the world, first
France, next England, last the United
States, is seeking to achieve through its
proposals for peace what IT has been UNI
able to obtain by arms.
"The imperial German government
seeks compromise in the irrepressible
conflict between autocracy and democra- !
cy before it shall be too late. All who
are willing to compromise on this issue
are willing to aid despotism, as all who |
urged compromise on Abraham Lincoln /,
in the Civil war aided slavery. The
American people to-day are fighting for
their own liberty as well as for the free
iom of the world. The world cannot be
safe for democracy so long as an organ
zed autocracy-its people still believing

or Americas entrance into the war was

far as in our power, increase these
territories and extend their boundaries
and shall do all we can in the interests
and glory of all these states of ours"
