lieved that American public opinion
which is expected to favor construc-
ton OF navy equal to that OF Great
Britain's IL a league of nations is not

part as a determining factor in the
discussions.
President Wilson will point out

freedom of the seas, but that he will
insist no single nation or group OF
nations shall be able to restrict this
freedom.
PIain Speaking Certain.
Plain speaking Is certain in the
preliminary conferences next week.
but the Americans anticipate the
most friendly cooperation from the
allied premiers. The President does
not regard himself as master Of the
situation, though his position is
strong because Of the allies accept
ance of his fourteen principles and of
the unexpected support of neutrals.
The President is known to feel that
the delegates are not sitting as mas
tiers of any nation, but as represen-
tatives OF the new. world. to deter
mine the greatest issues OF all time.
And he believes that any peace which
would leave hatreds as the breeding
ground for future wars would be
repetition Of the Congress of Vienna
and a dark spot in history.
