by Entente ENJOYS
By STEVENSON H. EVANS

Washington Jan. 22.-President Wilson to-day selected
the United States Senate the forum in which to deliver to
the American people and the belgerent governments
speech peace.
When he had concluded address perfect in literary
FORM studded with striking phrases redoent with sentiment
full appeal hearsrngs but lacking in expression OF
traditional American policy two things were apparent;
First that the President has made his expected next
move" peace and that this like the famous II un-
successful December 49, direct reinforcement of
the German peace drive.
Second that Mr. Wilson has definitely decided to lead the
United States away from the time honored doctrine of George
from the affairs and quarres of Europe
and away from the Monroe Doctrine which has become
settled policy of this government

WILSON'S PLAN
JARS BRITISH
Press Takes Issue with
Him on "NO Victory"
Statement

London. Jan. 23.-"The Daily Chron-
idle" in an editorial, this morning de-
scribes President wilson's statement
before the United States Senate as an
utterance the extreme elevation of the
neral tone of which will command the
unqualified respect Of those forward
looking. liberty-loving clements oil al
nations to which he frankly makes his
appeal.
President Wilson's position, says
"The Chronicle" is defined with nicely
he not attempting to dictate, but to IN
innate, what sort of peace terms would
he necessary TO obtain Americas con-
currence in a worldwide league of ma
tions. Summarizing the leading princi-
pies the President enunciates, the edi-
torisl proceeds:
"This is an imposing programme
which may we'll carry American senti-
ment with il, but the old world VIII
need to apply some searching tests to
its broad propositions before they can
| he harmonized with the realities"
Must Show Good Faith
Urging the necessity of good faith
as an ingredient Of the PRESIDENT )
project, the paper continues:
"If all parties we're willing 70 work
for a world concert honestly, it would
have a very different effect from that
which might be given It if one Of the
, parties entered it in bad faith. Sup
pose. according to the Wilson formula,
there is to be no victory. Then the
Germany which will enter the confer
ence will be the present Germany, un-
der her present statesman who made
( the war.
Against such power, Cnpunlshed and
4 impertinent, TIE President suggests
T tha. the Allies should forego many
means Of self-protection. Would they
be adequately compensated for this on
+ the balance by the promised protection
/ of the United States? The freedom OF
the seas, for instance, is not a phrase
any Englisbman will gladly hear in
/ this connection. If it means that the
seas are TO be free in peace time, We
+ all agree. But if il means that in the
event of peace breaking down the
/ land powers are 90 be free TO use their
I military weapons, while we are not TO
/ be free 10 use our naval one (and that
/ is That American diplomacy has meant
/ By it in the past), then we should have
to consider whether even the assur.
/ ance Of American protection would not
be purchased too dearly at such O
price.
No Terms without Bitterness
"We suggest that President Wilson
is throughout too much preoccupiec
with hopes of ending the war on terms
without bitterness. Let him not de-
ceive hmself-such terms are impossi-
bic either way. The atrocities with
which the Central Powers have embit
tered the conflict destroyed their posi-
bility in advance. No outsider can alter
that fact by telling US that there IL

Traditional Policy in Balance

III.
Traditional Policy in Balance
The President said, indeed, that
he proposed no breach in either our
policy or our traditions as a nation,
but he suggested an adoption Of the
doctrine "of President Monroe as the
doctrine of the world.v In urging
the United States into q world
league for peace, he said he was
proposing that "all nations avoid
entangling alliances"
But his speech must stand for
what it is. Members Of the Senate,
not Republicans only. but some
Democrats, regarded it as a chal-
lenge to take sides in a fight which
appears destined to shake the coun-
try, fight on the question, Shall
the United States break from a po-
sition in which it has been safe for
more than a century and assume re-
sponsibility for keeping the peace In
Europe!
Before a Wilson doctrine is substi-
tuted for the Monroe Doctrine a fight is
promised during which the American
people at least will be fully informed
of what the man they have ehosea
President is trying - do.
Mr.. Wilson has fired the first gun,
and it is a big one, gaining in effective
ness because the universal desire for
cessation Of the terrible war in Europe
Is part Of its ammunition. What the
reply gun will be has not yet been de-
termined, but IL will be fired quickly,
probably on the floor Of the Senate.
German Diplomats Pleased
The issue is joined. Mr.. Wilson's op-
ponents here do not believe the Ameri-
can people are with him in his evident
desire to commit this government to q
World League to Enforce Peace.
1t is as a development in the peace
moves, however, that President VIII
sons surprising speech most interests
official and diplomatic Washington to-
night In all the embassies the address
was regarded as a most important de-
velopment in the situation created by
the first German note offering 20 the
Allies. through the United States, =
discussion OF peace.
In German circles there was no a.
tempt to disguise the pleasure there
felt because the President so soon had
made the next move and that next
move so emphaticelly favored the Ger
man cause.
The most striking sentence IN tho
note, to the German mind, was thst
peace "csn't be long postponed" ID
not Mr.. Wilson say also that league
of peace presupposes a drawn war p.
Is il not clear that the peace move
ment started BY Germany is not dead
II Mr. Wilson regarded the case a.
hopeless would he have made such
speech?
Entente Embassies Chilly
At the Entente embassies there was
blank and chilling silence when eholts
we're made TO sound sentiment. Sufhcs
il 70 say that Mr.. Wilson's address 20
the Senate came as a disagreeable sur
prise.
Cables were sent to Europe only a
few days ago indicating an opinion that
the United States. having read, digested
and appreciated the recent complete
statement OF the case from the Allied
governments, would make no further
move TO eomplicste TIE situation or to
assist Germany.
That which most interested the neG
trail diplomats and those members o..
the Foreign Affairs committees Of both
! houses who are not in the confidence
Of the President was the possibility

WILSON HOPES

State VieWs-Speech
Sent Week Ago
fBy III. Associated Press. !

Washington, Jan. 22.-Presidens
Wilson's address was sent to Ameri-
can diplomats in the belligerent coun-
tries last Monday, two days before the
United States received the note from
Minister Balfour, of the British For
eign Office, supplementing the Entente
reply to the Presidents peace note,
and on the same day the German For
eign Minister Zimmerman declared it
was impossible for the Central powers
openly to lay down their terms.
The Presidents address was intended
as an open message to the world of the
conditions under which he would urge
the United States to enter world fed
grafton to guarantee future peace. Not
until word had been received from the
diplomats abroad that the copy had
been received did President Wilson ar
range to make the address to the Sen

Response Is Expected

10 EhpcN'tu
There is nothing in the address or in
the instructions accompanying its
presentation that will of itself demand
an answer. according to the Admins
tration view. but some response, never
theless. is expected from both groups Of
belligerents.
Confidential information that the En-
tente reply TO President Wilson had
convinced Germany that another step
by her would be unwise, convinced
American officials that unless the Unit
ed States gave further opening the
whole peace movement would come to
an end. The address to the Senate was
taken as a possible means Of avoiding
that result.
Both French and British Ambassa-
doris denied any knowledge Of its ex-
istence even after it had been deliv-
cred. Naturally, they refused in any
way to discuss it.
While Count Won Bernstorf, the Ger
man Ambassador, declined tonight to
comment for publication upon the ad-
dress. the German view generally was
that the address will strike a respon-
sive chord among the people Of Ger
many.
President Wilson and Secretary Lam
sing anticipate indignation in the for
eign press, much as was the case with
the Presidents original note of Deem
Der 18. They feel that in statement
of position as full as the Presidents
both sides may feel that they have been
unjustly attacked. and as a result they
look for bitter outburst in the more
violent press. No attempt is made TO
conceal the fact that statements that
may be interpreted as critical or un-
friendly may come from bo.h sides.
Relies on Peace Desire
The greatest confidence is felt here
that the belligerent peoples want peace.
and that the chief obstacle to an early
peace is the uncertainty as to whether
that peace will be permanent. IL is be-
lieved that as soon as people abroad
see in the American action a possible
means Of making that peace perma-
nent, any first reaction to the address
will disappear. and as serious and as
friendly discussion of il will follow as
followed the original peace note.
Officials also expect antagonism IN
this country TO any abandonment of
the traditional policy of American
isolation. IL has been felt in the high
est quarters for some time that no
such fundamental change in American
foreign policy could be taken without
a decided change in the basic attitude
of public opinion, and that wide cam
paign must be undertaken by the Presi-
dent if his programme is to be carried
through.
Prepares for Struggle
The strength of this internal Amer
lean position il said not to be under
estimated by the President, as it has
already been foreshadowed in the re-
cent opposition by Senators Lodge,
