I told the senate today In presenting
. "ShaIl We hesitate to accept this
great duty2" the president asked.
The only question is whether we ca
n refuse the moral leadership offered
us: whether we shall accept or rejec
the confidence of the world" Re-
lection OF the league of nations. he sa
id, would be rejection of the worlds
confidence. More than that he decl
ared that without the league of ma
tions the treaty would be a scrap OF
paper
The president told the senate:
People demand the league and
would brook no denial.
Americas material aid to Europe
will be indispensable in days to come
America is friend of all nations.
and has just reached her majority as
world power.
Americas isolation ended 20 years
ago.
America in truth shall show the
way to the world.
The treaty squares with the IL
points as well as with practical needs
OF the nation.
1t is not exactly the sort OF a treaty
the United States would have written.
The United States sought no specia.
reparation for herself. but only the re-
stor1tion of right and the assurance OF
liberty everywhere.
Americas fighting made victory
cer.ain.
A league of free nations is prac-
tical necessity.
Old Regime in Way.
Wilson began his speech by outIin-
ing how American troops. to whom
no Paid a warm tribute as "nsen ter-
ribIe in battle but gentle and helpful

Coming to the making OF peace. the
president reviewed in detail the many
questions presented and the
growing out of the dis
position in some quarters to cling to
the old order. "Old entanglements.'
he said, stood in the way OF peace.
1t was not easy to graft new order
ideas onto the old. Some fruits of
the grating may. / fear, for time
be bitter"
But on the whole. the president de-
clared, Europe welcomed American
participation in the peacemakIng as
eagerly she welcomed the Amerf-
san armies and the accomplished Am
srican principles of peace
America a Friend.
We were welcomed as disinterest-
I'd friends" he stated. "and it was rec
Dgnized that our material aid would

industry and credit must be brought

vas taken for granted. I am proud to
ay. that we would play the helpful
riend." In view of all this. Wilson
eclared the question was put square,
Y to the United states whether ii will
ry to resume the old policy Of isoia-
ion or will continue through the
eague of nations, the task of main
aiming the "hew order set up in the

nee of the mandatory by the United
tates when he said, Weak peoples

Wilson announced that he will later

fhich American aid is pledged to
rance against an unprovoked Ger,
