the situation This now has been
changed. The most significant devel,
opment following the massing of the
American forces on the western
front, where they have been con

crack divisions, has been the fact
that Germany now is unable to with
draw single division from the west
to send to keep Bulgaria in the war.

The detection of Bulgaria as a re-
suit, Is so obviously of supreme i'm
portance that 1t needs no detailed
military explanation. in General
March's opinion. II Is obvious, he
said, to all that it means the elimi.

PRESIDENT SPEAKS
ON WORLD JUSTICE

The presidents address in its en-
,tirety was very comprehensive and
covered every point in the peace sug-
gestion. He set forth the following
five principles as a practical pro.
gram:
"First-The impartial justice ameted
out must involve no discrimination
between these TO whom we wish to
be just and to those to whom we do
justice that plays no favorites and
knows no standard but the equal
rights of the several peoples concern
ed.
"Second-iNo special or separate
interest of any single nation or. any
group OF nations can be made the ba-
sis of any part of the settlement
which is not consistent with the COM
mon interests of all;
"Third--iThere can be no league or
alliances or special covenants and
understanding within the general and
common family of the League of Ma
tons;
Fourth. and More Specifically
There can be no special, selfish eco,
nomic combinations within the league
and no employment OF any form of
economic boycott 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 means of dis
cipline and control;
Fifth all international agreements
and treaties of every kind must be
made known in their entirety to the
rest of the world"
Mr. Wilson restated the issues of
the war as follows.
Shall the military power OF any
nation or group of nations be suffered
to determine the fortunes OF peoples
over whom they have no right to rule
except the right of force?
"Shall strong nations be free to
wrong weak nations and make them
subject to their purpose and inter
est?
"Shall peoples be ruled and domi-
mated. even in their own internal at
fairs. by arbitrary and irresponsible
force or by their own will and choice
''Shal there be a common standard
of rigat and privilege for all peoples
and nations or shall the strong do as
they will and the weak suffer with
out redress.
"Shall the assertion OF right be
haphazard and by casual alliance. OF
shall there be common concert to
Ohlige the observance of common
rights"
He added: No man, no group of mer
chose these to be the issues of the
struggle They ARE the issues OF
It."
