AMMERICA'S WAR AIMS.

Washington, Dec. a. 49, A definite
statement to the world of Americas
war aims and of the basis upon which
peace will be considered was made to-
day by President Wilson in an address
to congress in which he urged immed
late declaration of state of war be-
tween the United States and Austria
Hungary-Germany's vassal and tools,
Turkey and Bulgaria-also tools of
the enemy, he counselled delay be-
cause they do not yet stand in the
direct path of our necessary action
To win the war, the president de-
clared in emphatic and ringing tones,
is the immediate and unalterable task
ahead. He urged congress just be-
ginning it's second war session, to con-
centrate itself upon it.
The president sharply dismissed the
possibility of premature peace, sought
by German intrigue and debated here
by men who understood neither it's
nature nor the way it may be attained.
The Bismarck tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, N.D.) 1916-current, 1917-12-05

With victory an accomplished fact, he
said, peace will be evolved based up
on "mercy and justice"-to the enemy
and with the hope Of partnership of
nations to guarantee future world
peace.
Justice and Reparaton.
The war will be declared off, he de.
clared, when the German people SAY
to us, through properly accredited rep
rsentatives, that they are ready to
agree to a settlement based upon JUS.
tice and reparation of the wrongs
their rulers have DONE Terms Of
peace, he added, would not include
dismemberment robbery or punish
ment of the enemy, but would be bas'
ed on justice, defined briefly as fol-
lows:
Freedom of nations and their peo-
Piles from autocratic domination, re-
paratiOn to Belgium, REIMBURSEMENT OF
German power over the peoples Of
Austria, Turkey, the free Balkan
states, as we'll as evacuation Of Prus-
sian territorial conquests in Belgium
and northern France.
Emphasizing the purpose of the
United States not to interfere in the
internal affairs of any nation. the
president asserted that no wrong
aaginst the German empire was in.
tended and that there was no desire to
rearrange the Austro-H Hun garian EN-,
peire. He said when he spoke eight
months ago of the right of nations to
free access to the seas he had Aus
tria as we'll as the smaller and weak
er nations in mind.
Warmly Greeted.
Appearing before congress in joint
session for the first time since he
asked for the war declaration against
Germany last April, The president was
more than usually warmly greeted,
and his speech was received with en-.
thusiastic applause which grew tu-
multuous when he reached the recon
mendation as to Austria. Diplomats,
justices of the supreme court and 9TH
err high officials assembled on the
floor joined in the demonstration.
The definition of war aims and
peace terms, the most explicit ever
voiced by the head of any of'the great
warning powers, was accepted as the
more significant because since his re-
ply to the Pope's peace note ''he presi'
dent has come to be regarded more
and more as spokesman for all the
nations fighting Germany.
BY advance arrangement the ad
dress was made available for publica
ton today in nearly every corner OF
the globe 1t probably will not ap
pear in full in the Teutonic press
burt the papers of neutral countries
and the work of allied aviatOrs vii
get it to many Germans in unmuti
lated form.

MESSAGE REACHES ALL
POINTS OF CONTINENTS
Greatest Publicity Feat Ever I'm
dertaken Gives Message to
Ships at Sea.

New York, Dec. 5.-President Will
sons address to congress yesterday
was heralded throughout the world by
the United States government. The
achievement is regarded as probably
the greatest publicity feat ever under
taken.
Distribution of the message abroad
was personally directed from this city
by George Creel, chairman of the COM
mittee on public information.
Nearly every known means of COM
munication-express train, telephone,
telegraph, wireless and submarine ca
ble-was utilized in transmitting the
address. While an operator in New
York was clicking off its text on a
transcontinental wire direct to San
Fran cisco, where it was Immediately
relayed to the Orient, another at his
side was sending Spanish transla-
ton to Colon, Panama Canal zone,
from where it radiated throughout
Central and South American capitals.
Words Shot Into Air.
Wireless operators picked the presi-
dents words out Of the air and relay
ed them to Caribbean Sea points.
Doubtless many ships in these waters
knew what was being said in Wash.
ingtOn at almost the same time the
address was being distributed on tele-
graphic systems in this country.
1t is estimated approximately $4,000
miles OF telegraph and cable wires
were called into use in transmitting
the message.
Chairman Creel received copy of
the address in this city by courier
from Washington early today. A corps
of typists were put at work in lock.
ed room to make duplicate copies.
Meanwhile, in an adjoining room, it
was being translated into French and
Spanish. These rooms were guarded
as a precaution against the contents
of the message becoming public pre-.

SPECIAL SESSION
Of LEGISLATURE
DEMAND Of FARM
We.tern Sections of State to Ask
Relief to Tide Over From
Drouth Ravages.
FEED AND SEED NEEDED
TO RELIEVE SITUATION

Fargo, y. d., Dec. ). - Farmers In
the western part of North Dakota who
SUITE, ed heavily when their crops
were destroyed by last summers rec
ord drouth are contemplating calling
for an extra session of the state legis-
lature in order to secure funds to
carry them over the winter without
selling their seed wheat, according to
reports received here from western
parts of the state.
The question of food, feed and seed
for the farmers in this section, the re-
rorts say, is getting very serious and
meetings have been scheduled at ten
different points for the coming week
TO discuss the situation. The drouth
they point out was so severe that
number of them have been obliged al
ready to sell all or part OF their seed
in order to purchase necessities. I'm
less some action is taken, the reports
say, serious problem will face the
farmers OF the western section OF the
state, and unless this is remedied the
farmers will not be able to do their
duty by the nation in raising bumper
crops next year.

CURTIN LEAVES CITY;
MAY NOT APPEAR AT
THE BEGLEY TRIAL

Leo +. Curtin, manager of the
Singer Sewing Machine company, has
left Boise.
Speculation is rife as to whether
he will return Monday to give tcst-
mony against II. II. Beglcy, who shot
him through the chest at his home on
the morning Of Jan. or if he intends
letting the case go by default by be-
ing absent.
1t is known that Mr.. Curtin has sold
all his household effects. He left
Boise Thursday. His friends gave it
out that he has gone to another city
to investiG. te taking over the man
agement of an agency offered him by
the same company before the shooting.
They contend he will be in Boise Mon
day for the preliminary.
There are others who contend that
Mr.. Curtin will not be back. They
cite the circumstances surrounding
the shooting. his declaration to the
officers, made when they first came
on the scene, that he shot himself,
and the further fact that he had a
narrow escape from death and has
since been in an extremely nervous
condition and did not feel tit to un =
dergo the strenuous fight which would
necessarily result in the courts.
