of the treaty and the covenant of the

reservation.
His message given out here by Sec

MY Fellow Countrymen: The treaty
of peace has been signed. If it is rati-
fled and acted upon in full and sincere
execution of its terms it will furnish
the charter for new order of affairs
in the world 1t is a severe treaty in
the duties and penalties it imposes
upon Germany, but it is severe only
because great wrongs done by Ger
many are to be righted and repaired ;
it imposes nothing that Germany can
not do; and she can regain her right
full standing in the world by the
prompt and honorable fulfilment of its
terms
