that they are seeking in this war, and
what they think the items of the final
settlement should be. They are not vet
satisfied with what they have been
told They still seem to fear that they
are getting what they ask for only in
statesmen 5 terms-only in the terms of
territorial arrangements and divisions of
power, and not in terms of broad-vision-
ed justice and mercy and peace and the
satisfaction of those deep-seated long
ings of oppressed and distracted men
and women and enslaved peoples that
seem to them the only things worth
fighting war for that engulfs the
world. Perhaps statesmen have not al
ways recognized this changed aspect of
the whole world of policy and action.
Perhaps they have not always spoken in
direct reply TO the questions asked be-
cause they did not know how searching
those questions were and what sort of
answers they demanded.
Would Clarity War Aims.
But L. for one, am glad to attempt
the answer again and again, in The

clearer that my one thought is to sat

titled to a reply whose meaning no one
can have any excuse for misunderstood
ing, if he understands the language in
which it is spoken or can get some one
to translate it correctly into his own.
And / believe that the leaders of the
governments with which we are associat-
ed viii speak, as they have occasion, as

AS the Issues Develop.

AS ! have said, neither /, nor any
other man in governmental authority
created or gave form to the issues of
this war I have simply responded to
them with such vision as ! could com
mand. But l have responded gladly
and with a resolution that has grown
warmer and more confident as the is
sues have grown clearer and clearer.
1t is now plain that there are issues
which no man can pervert unless 1t be
wilfully. I am bound to fight for them,
and happy to fight for them as time
and circumstances have revealed them
to me as to all the world. Our enthu-
siasm for them grows more and more
irresistible as they stand out in more
and more vivid and unmistakable out
line.
And the forces that fight for them
draw into closer and closer array, and
organize their millions into more and
more uncomfortable might, as they be-
come more and more distinct to the
thought and purpose of the peoples en-
gagged. 1t is the popularity of this
great war that while statesmen have
seemed to cast about for definitions OF
their purpose and have sometimes
seemed to shift their ground and their
point of view, the thought Of the mass
of men. whom statesmen are supposed to
instruct and lead, has grown more and
more unelouded, more and more certain
of what it is that they are fighting for.
National purposes have fallen more and
NOR into the background and the com
mon purpose of enlightened mankind has
taken their place. The counsels of plain
men have become on all hands more
simple and straightforward and more uni
fec than the counsels of sophisticated
men of affairs who still retain the i'm
preston that they are playing for high
stakes That is why I have said that
this is the peoples war, not a states
men 3. Statesmen must follow the
clarified common thought or be broken.
/ take that to be the significance OF
the fact that assemblies and assocla-
tions of many kinds made up of plain
workaday people have. demanded, al
most every time they came together,
and are still demanding, that the lead
ers of their governments declare to them
plainly what it is, exactly what it is,

equal rights Of the several peoples con
cerned;
: Second, no special or separate in
terest of any single nation or any GROUP
Of nations can be made the basis of any
part of the settlement which is not con
sistent with the common interest Of all;
Third, there can be no leagues OF
alliances or special covenants and I'M
derstanding within the general and com
mon family of the league of nations;
Fourth, and more specifically, there
can be no special, selfish economic com
binations within the league and no en-
I ployment of any form of economic boy
colt or exclusion except as the power of
economic penalty by exclusion from the
markets of the world may be vested in
the league of nations itself as a means
Of discipline and control
Fifth, all international agreements
and treaties of every kind must be
made known in their entirety to the
rest of the world.
Special alliances and economic rival
ries and hostilities have been the proli-
fic curse in the modern world of the
plans and passions that produce war.
1t would be an insincere as well as an
insecure peace that did not exclude
them in definite and binding terms.
Nc Entangling Alliances.
The confidence with which l venture
to speak for our people in these matters
does not spring from our traditions
merely and the well-known principles of
international action which we have
always professed and followed. In the
same sentence in which / say that the
United States viii enter into no special
arrangements or understandings with
particular nations let me say also that the
United States is prepared to assume its
full share of responsibility for the main
tenance of the common covenants and
understanding upon which peace must
henceforth rest We still read Wash /
:ngton s immortal warning against ''en-
taneling alliances" with full cOmpre- /,
hension and an answering purpose. But /
only special and limited alliances en-
tangIe; and we recognize. and accept the |
duty of a new day in which we are per
mitted to hope for general alliance
which will avoid entanglements and
clear the air of the world for common |
and maintenance of com
mon rights.
have made this analysis of the in
ternational situation which the war has
created, not, of course, because |
doubted whether the leaders of the
great nations and peoples with whom
we are associated were of the same
mind and entertained like purpose,
but because the air every now and
again gets darkened by mists and
aroundless doubtings and mischievous
of counsel and it is neces-
sarv once and again to sweep all the |
talk about peace intrigues
and weakening morale and doubtful
on the part of those in authori-
ty utterly, and if need be, unceremon-
iouslv, aside and say things in the plain
est words that can be found, even when
t is only to say over again what has been
said before, quite as plainly if in less
lnvarnished terms.

New Purposes Develop Daily.

At every turn of the war we again
a fresh consciousness of what we mean
to accomplish by it. When our hope
and expectations are most excited we
think more definitely than before of
the issues that hang upon it and of the
purposes which must be realized by
means of it. For it has positive and
well defined purposes which we did not
determine and which we can not alter.
No statesman or assembly created them;
no statesman or assembly can alter
them. They have arisen out of the
very nature and circumstances of the
war. The most that statesmen or as
sembles can 10 IS TO carry them out or
be raise ~ men, they were perhaps
not clear at the outset; but they are
clear now.
The war has lasted more than four
years and the whole world has been
drawn into it. The common will OF
mankind has been substituted for the
particular purposes of individual states.
Individual statesmen may have started
the conflict, but neither they nor their
opponents can stop it as they please. 1t
has become peoples war and peoples
of all sorts and races, of every degree
of power and variety of fortune, are IN
yolved in its sweeping processes OF
change and settlement. We came into
it when its character had become fully
defined and it was plain that no ma
tion could stand apart or be Indifferent
to its outcome. It's challenge drove to
the heart of everything we cared for
and lived for. Our brothers from many
lands, as well as our own murdered dead
under the sea, were calling to us, ana
we responded, fiercely and of course.
The air was clear about us. We saw
things in their full, convincing proper
tons as they were; and we have seen
them with steady eyes and unchanglng
comprehension ever since. We accept
ed the issues of the war as facts, not
as any group of men either here or else
where had defined them, and we can ac-
cept no outcome which does not squareiy
meet and settle them. Those issues are
these:

the half low, medieval line.
Everyone's mind is not quite easy
about the Jacket that appeared in
september. II was longer than usual,
and In the American designs II was
cut with the irregular hem, some OF
the points reaching TO and below the
knees. These were especially effec-
Ave over the tube-like skirts.
They seemed TO be established, but
now there creeps into the fashion n
much smarter, newer Jacket that had
its sponsors in Cheruit and Lucille
ana Doucet in the Paris houses. 1t is
boNltke, it ends at the hips, it has
large sleeves put into low armholes,
| 1t fastens to the neck, and il Is un-
beltcd. In one instance, there is a
touch Of a belt in the middle OF the
, back, which keeps the fulness from
icing too cape-like. II Is arranged
in this manner; through two large
huttOnhOlcs about five inches apart,
comes a band OF the material which
has q large oblong buckle covered
with the material, or with suede in
a color to match the fabric. That is
all; but the touch is smart.
Doucet's Jacket. which is cut out in
square battlements at the hip-line
where they are mounted on n strip of
fur that runs up the front, Is espec-
tally attractive TO the individualists,
and is copied in the best Of the new
models
There is no inclination in these
new jackets To cling TO the figure;
they are as shapeless as a sacque !:
and they are made of heavy. shaggy
materials. There is an evidence OF
warmth and protectiveness there, but
not slcndcrncss or curves. And yet.
those who are looking for the new
thing, like them better than the slim,
long, pointed Jacket Of September.
Square Lines Above Waist.
One cannot help but notice the
change 10 square, boX-like lines in
garments or accessories worn above
the waist, while the skirts take on
bias lines and spiral draperies. II is
an odd combination. Even a bridal
veil has been made in an entirely
new manner and was shown at an
exhibition which always includes one
quite fascinating bridal costume.
This veil by the way, may be worth
describing in detail for November
brides.
Ii is of thin white chiffon, nov
city indeed. II is cut In a wide
panel back and front. gathered at
the top to a bandcau that fits low on
the head, ION a level with the eye
hrows There is nothing over the
top Of the head. The chiffon falls
over the face to the toes in front and
