suenos Aires. -

Buenos Aires. - South America
generally, as well as Argentina, IS
delaying its verdict on Pres. Wilson's
speech, pending fuller understanding
of its aims.
An unexpected unwillingness was
manifested to forego extension OF
principle of Monroe doctrine sug-
gested in presidents speech, because
that extension was taken as implying
abandonment of the doctrine. This
was a source of anxiety here today.
As far as the purely peace efforts
Of the president are concerned,
there is an overwhelming majority in
favor of Wilson's suggestion.

cUMMINS URGES SENATE I
. DEBATE WILSON ADDRESS

DEbH z WlLOOIN HDDNESS
Washington, Jan. "a. - Declaring
the presidents address to the SEN
ate Monday "the most important
ever made by an executive Of the
United States,"l Senator Cummins
Immediately the senate convened to-
day demanding action at once on his
resolution calling for debate on that
speech next Monday.
He explained the resolution called
for no extended debate at this time
beyond the point:
"Ought the senate in the near fu-
ture do the country the justice and
render the president the respect of
informing the people and advising
the president of our views concern
ing his vital subject.
ct matters not whether the presi-
dent is right or wrong.
'In either case his announcement
is the most important ever made by
an executive of the United States.
The whole country so looks upon it
and foreign nations so regard it.
81 am led to believe that those who
pose this resolution are not his true
friends" Cummins went on.
Sen. Sherman, Illinois, in a bitter
denunciation of the presidents adj
dress, declared it to be a stump
speech from the throne, a forestall-
ing of public opinion, and an attempt
to make the senate accept any treaty
he might make"

metals than copper and steel have

GERMANY NOT EXPECTED To
OFFICIALLY COMMENT ON
WILSON MESSAGE

WILSON MESSAGE
Berlin, Jan. "a. - Pres. Wilson's
senate speech was telegraphed to
kaiser and Field Marshal Won Hin
denburg at front today. Ambassa-
dor Gerard conferred for 40 min
utes with Foreign Sec'y Zimmerman
last night and later cabled state de-
partment at Washington a confden-
tial outline of German foreign Office
impression of the statement.
Meanwhile presidents sentiments
are fully echoed publicly and official
ly in Germany. They are viewed with
interest and favor. 1t is believed
that Germany cannot take official
cognizance Of the declarations at this
time because:
Allies reply to Pres. Wilson has
never been officially received by
Germany. Germany cannot make
further overtures for peace after in
sulting reply of allies to its first
peace proposal. Officials do not want
to seem to interfere in American af-
fairs by commenting on Pres. Will
sons message to the senate. Ger
many does not consider the time OPP
perfume to state her terms.
Men in responsible positions did
not hesitate today to express their
satisfaction over the presidents ar
gument. for freedom of the seas"
From the first Germany has insisted
this was biggest question involved.
These same officials pointed out also
that Germany showed she favored
an independent Poland = another
point on which the president laid
stress her proclamation Of No
Eember.
