SIR ORACLE SPEAKS.

III AS President Wilson jetsoned his fourteen peace
A conditions Of January 1918? Dispatches from Lon
don quote Senator James Hamilton Lewis in a speech
made before the America Luncheon Club at a dinner
given in his honor, follows:
The world must understand that IN America there is
but one senment-that peace possible only when the
war has forced conceding of the principles for which
america entered into the worlds struggle for liberty
Yet speak my opposition to the voices in my country or
in any country Of the Allies assuming to write down the
details TO the other conditions on which peace could
be had"
Senator Lewis is regarded as the spokesman Of Pres
dent Wilson on the floor Of the Senate and at the time
Of his departure for Europe it ntimated that he
went there the Presidents personal representative"
to accomplish something, was permitted 10 know
what Was it to prepare Europe for change of our
viewpoint respecting the essential conditions of peace?
Diplomatic correspondence leading up to the war and
the Presidents message show beyond cav that the
principe for which America entered into the worlds
struggle insure the freedom the seas and r.
uphold the sanctfty Of international law. Ihe present
submarine warfare against commerce is a war
fare against mankind said the President in his war
message to Congress- April 2, 1871 because we con-
tended for the freedom OF the the President post
poned declaration Of against Austra-Hungary who

marine warfare had mot actually engaged in warfare
against citizens Of the United States the seas.
II Lewis spoke for himself he has not progressed be-
yond these first principles he speaks for the admnls-
ration tempting offer is held out to Germany in her
present straits.
Nine months after entry into the war, January
g. 1915 President Wilson laid down fourteen conditions
saying: "The program OF the worlds peace, therefore,
is our program, and that program. the only possible
program, it, is this" The program embraced
open covenants Of peace freedom OF the seas removal
of all barriers reduction OF national armament
impartial adjustment colonial claims to sustain Rus
sa, to rehabtate Belgium, to restore Asace-Lorraine
TO France readiust aly frontiers free the peoples
of AustriaHungary to unsnarl the Balkan angle, to
settle the Turkish question: independent Polish State
and finally general association OF nations to guarantee
political independence and territorial integrity to great
and small States alike.
However these conditions or principles may be re-
garded, they the ones given out for the United
States the responsibility Of President Wilson those
for which willing to sacrifice the last drop Of
our blood and the ultimate dollar of our treasure.
Therefore, If Lewis speech inspired from the
White House. the Administration has given up the prn
cples enuncated January g. and returned to the first
prncipes-freedom Of the and the binding force Of
international law And If Lewis spoke for himself only.
he has set himself up in opposition TO the President
