PROPOSES us. Intervention
FOR PEACE WITHOUT VICTORY
IS A HISTORY MAKING EVENT

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. 22-PresI
dent Wilson In personal address
to the senate today laid down
the question OF whether the United States
shall depart from Its traditional policy Of
isolation and take part In a world league
to preserve peace after the war.
No such history making event with such
far reaching possibilities ever had | cen
seen in the senate chamber. The prcsi 'ent
explained that the time had come when
the senate. which holds the treaty making
power, should be told the status OF the
peace movement
The presidents address was given to
the foreign powers. The president refer
red to his peace" note of December 10,
declaring that the central and entente pow
ers' replies brought us much nearer def
mite discussion of peace that shall end
the present war, much nearer the discus
sion of national concert which thereafter
shall hold the world at peace" asserting
that ii is ''inconceivabIe that the people
of the United States shall play no part"
in the arrangements which shall insure
definite peace
The president went on to say They can
rot in honor withhold the service to which
they are now about to be challenged"
The condition to be attained were, he
said, the ending of the present war; a
peace which must serve the interests OF
mankind, not merely the nations engaged;
a peace without victory, because peace
with victory would mean vIctor's terms
imposed on the vanquished, with future
unrest certain: peace which recognizes
the right of the peoples of all nations 70
