SWISS PRESIDENT-ELEc!
DESIRES WILSON VISIT
Says Country Hopes Tor Psace OF
Basic Principles Proclaimed
by American Executive.

GENEVA, Switzerland, Friday. De.
cember 20-Gustave Ador, president'
elect of Switzerland. said today. while
discussing the possibility Of President
Wilson visiting this country: /.
IF Mr.. Wilson does US the great
honor to visit Switzerland, - we
greatly desire, we would be glad I'd
lay before him the economic conditpn
Of our country.
Switzerland desires that q just and
equitable peace be secured on the
basic principles proclaimed by Presi-
dent Wilson. Wishing to be politically
and economically Independent, she,
therefore, hopes that free access "a
the sea be guaranteed her. England
and America know too well our posi>
ton amidst the great powers Of Eu-
rope with whom we must be able I'd
exchange our products. not to realize
the requirements Of our industries,
which have no raw materials at thefl
command. 80
"If President Wilson comes here, we
would be able to express our graft.
tude for all the sympathy he has
shown us. We would ask him to de-
fend the rights OF neutrals at the
peace conference. He knows that our
democracy, inspired by the same ideals
as is the American nation. Is DESTROYS
Of being able to work freely without
being subjected to any control preju-
dicial to its sovereignty"
