Paris, Dec. 23.-The Presidents
first week in France finds the pre-
liminary situation surrounding the
peace conference fairly well developed
toward the point where, according to
the Presidents expressed view, it will
be worth while for the United States
to participate.
The Presidents conferences with
French and Italian statesmen have
served to emphasize that he considers
a treaty of peace not enough, but that
the general agreement to be made
among the nations must include a sat
isfactory settlement of the question
of the freedom of the e a and q
league of nations.
The President nov goes to England
to continue the discussions there along
the same lines as those he had with
the representatives of France and
Italy, which the Presidents advisers
describe as having beer satisfactory.
President Wilson, in acknowledging
the honor bestowed upon him by the
University of Paris in the form of a
Doctors degree, said: Il feel very
keenly the distinguished honor which
has been conferred upon me by the
great University of Paris, and it is
| very delightful to me also to have the
honor of being indicted into the great
company of scholars whose life and
fame have made the history of the
University of Paris a thing admirable
among men of cultivation in all parts
of the world"
