Wilson's Decision
Was a Brave one
T. BY SIR FREDERICK Il. SMITH
AttOrN,y (strlctrlI of Great Britain.

London. Dec. 27.---It seems certain
that President Wilson's Fundamental
sympathies must always have been
with his present allies--or as he pre-
fcrs to phrase 1t. with the nations as
sociated with the United States.
But for long the quarrel seemed
and. In fact. was remote from any
American interests. The far west was
very remote from the central west and
seemed very Indifferent to the far
away ouarreis and distant outrages
which. after all. might not be true.
: The Irish in America were very
powerful and very hostile, too, in the
elections.
The Germans were watching with
alert, treacherous, pitiless eyes, ready
to destroy any statesmen who men
aced their ancient fatherland
Wilson'S Decision Brave.
In these circumstances. President
Wilson'S ultimate decision was a brave
one and history will forever applaud
the zeal and the energy and enthusi-
assn with which the conclusion was
reached.
When Mr.. Wilson brought that gem
erous. powerful. resourceful nation
into the war he resolved that the
United States. the traditional home of
independence and freedom. should at
once DeCOuit GOIiSStiPl 'oIitif diitt
which at all times will be recorded
az one OF the sublime decisions in his
tory.

taken II SO swiftly and so persuasive

illumines his unforgettable speeches.

SEEK WILSON'S AID
IN PERU-CH|LE SCRAP

London. Dec. ETA delegation OF
influential Peruvian residents expects
TO make representations, or present n
petition TO President Wilson tomor-
row forenoon at the American en-
bassy, EN- bracing the trouble between
Peru and Chile.
tSenor r, Della Fuente, Peruvian
charge d'affaires. gives Universal Ser
vice the following outline OF the points
which il Is desired TO lay before the
president et-the United States r.
THE French consul AT Iquique. who
Is in charge of Peruvian interests
there, has never declared that the
Peruvian consul was not put by force
aboard ship. The Peruvian consul
was expelled by a mob, and the naval
governor, Morales, forbade him to
land again. That was confirmed by
the Chilean people.
1T is untrue that the Peruvian
consuls declared they never eXpe-
rienced difficulties in Chile That re-
port was circulated by the Chilea n
press and Is denied absolutely by the
consuls
Hostile demonstrations against Pc
ruvians continue and our citizens con-
sequently are leaving Tacna and africa
to avoid persecution. The piebisctte
in Tacna and africa territory is not
due TO Chile. but was established by
the treaty or 1883. IT should have
been taken in 1894, since which time
Peru has done her utmost to have the
treaty fulfilled. but our endeavors
have always failed"
