FIGHTING TO FREE PEOPLE
War Not Upon Industry and En-
terprise Of Teutons But on
Autocratic Rulers.

westsr. Newspaper Union News Service.
Washington. Dec. s.-President VIII
son delivered to Congress an address
Tuesday considered SO important In
its relation to international affairs.
that it had been transmitted in ad'
vance by the government to practical
ly every capital in the world.
The President spoke as follows:
Gentlemen Of the Congress:
Eight months have elapsed since I
last had the honor Of addressing you.
They have been months crowded with
events OF immense and grave signifi-
canoe for u. shall not undertake
to detail or even to summarize those
events.
The practical particulars Of the part
we have played in them will be laid
before you In the reports of the ex'
ecutive departments. l shall discuss
only our present outlook upon these
vast affairs. our present duties and
the immediate means Of accomplish
ing the objects we shall hold always
in view.
l shall not go back to debate the
causes of the war. The intOlerable
wrongs done and planned against US
by the sinister masters Of Germany
have long since become too grossly
obvious and odious to every true Am
erican to need to be rehearsed.
But shall ask you to consider
again and with very grave scrutiny
our detectives and the measures by
which we mean to attain them; for
the purpose of discussion here in this
place is action. and our action must
move straight towards definite ends.
Our object is. of course, to win the
war. and we shall not slacken or sui.
fer ourselves to be diverted until 1t
is won. But 1t is worth while asking
and answering the question, when
shall we consider the war won?
From one point Of view 1t Is not
necessary to breach this fundamental
matter. I do not doubt that the Am.
srican people know what the war Is
about and what sort of an outcome
they will regard as realization OF
their purpose in It, AS nation we
are united in spirit and intention.
pay little heed to those who tell
me otherwise. | hear the voices OF
dissent-who does not? l hear the
criticism and the clamOr OF the noisy,
thoughtless and troublesome. l also

selves in impotent disloyalty against

 The people of the United States would have borne almost anything from Germany if they could have believed that the Germans cause was originally a good one or that the war was forced upon Germany" But knowing what we did, when the Germans. after murdering great numbers of our fellow citizens and quibbling for many, many months about these murders-when they told us to keep our ships in port or they would sink
 them; we found that Germany's conduct
 toward us was not to be distinguished
 from making war upon us, and we de- cided that our citizens should not be
 killed continuously by a country which
 was "sat peace'' with us. and we could not take orders from Germany to remain in port and away from the high seas. Germany does not make and enforce the laws of and for the United States-not without encountering some resistance from Americans So we disobeyed Ger many, and would not paint the com manded yellow stripes upon the hulls of the one ship week which was to be permitted upon the Atlantic ocean. one ship week which was to be per-

 We found ourselves in a state of war
