'''Beforp making reply to the re-

mOmenlous interests involved require.
the president of the United States
deems il necessary to assure himself
of the exact meaning of the note of
the imperial chancellor. Does the i'm
peral chancellor mean that the i'm
perial German government accepts the
terms laid down by the president in
his address to the congress Of the Unit
ed States on the eighth Of January
last, and in subsequent addresses, and
that its object in entering into dis
cussion would be only to agree upon
the practical details of their appli-
cation?'

to the governments with which the gov
ernment of the United States is asso-
ciated against the central powers, so
long as the armies of those powers
are upon their own soil. The good
faith of any discussion would manifest

their forces everywhere from invaded

THE president also feels that he is
Justified in asking whether the imper-
