TAKE FINAL PEACE TREATY ACTION TO-DAY
TELLS OHIO AUDIENCE HE OWES REPORT ONLY
 TO PEOPLE OF NATION

Italian settlements there. he declar- ed, Italy wanted Plume for strategy and military purposes. If there were a League of Nations, he asserted, Italy would not need that foothold.
 I'd rather have everybody on my side he continued, than be armed to the teeth"
 Referring to criticism that the treaty violated American traditions. MT. Wilson said he was proud that he, too, belonged 10 the 'old revolution ary school" and that he was fol- lowing the purpose of the vision which the fathers had seen.
 This treaty is an attempt to right the wrongs of Europe" said the Pres ident, and in my humble opinion it is a measurable success"
 He used the word measurable, he added, because racial lines were not always distinct and could not be drawn with absolute precision on a map.
 Praising the treaty provision pro- viding for an international labor or ganization which will hold its first meeting in Washington in October, the President said and let me tell you it will meet whether the treaty is IdllLleu bN Lleu or not. The President appealed to his hear CTS to exert their influence for accept ance of the treaty Don't let men pull it down. he said, don't let them misrepresent it.'
 When this treaty Is accepted" he said. the men in khaki will never have to cross the seas again and I say when it is accepted because it will be accepted"
 As the President was leaving the hall a Chinaman in the gallery called several times. MT. Wilson, how about Shantung?' The President, apparently, did not hear him.
 The treaty. the President declared, was "shot through with the Ameri- can principle of the choice of the governed"
 The treaty also contains. the Pres ident continued "a Magma Charta of labor" which would set up an inter- national labor organization. The la bor section, he said provided what should have been provided long ago. It fulfilled the tardy realization of men that there could be no good gov ernment or peace until the people themselves were satisfied. By regu- lation of labor conditions the world by similar provisions like those to regulate the opium trade and extend the Red Cross. MT. Wilson said the treaty draws the noble impulses of the world together and makes a team of them"
 That's what is in this treaty" he 'continued.
 Did anyone ever tell you that be- fore?" He asked his hearers if they could not read.

Expresses AstOnishment at Treaty Misrepre- sentatiOn-Says He is Convinced Many of Critics Fail to COmpre- hend the Pact.

Columbus, O., Sept. 4-Pres- ident Wilson, opening his countrywide speaking tour for the peace treaty, declared in an address here today that his purpose was ito go out and report to my fellow country men,
 The only people I owe any report" said the President, are you and the other citizens of the United States.
 The President said it also seemed Increasingly necessary that he should make such a report because he had read many speeches abou; the treaty and was unable to gather from them much of what the treaty contained that is bright and glori- ous if we but rise to the heights ot practical advantage"
 He said that he had "chafed at the confinement of Washington" and was glad to get out to make his report to the people In the first plaCa the President said. the treaty under took to punish Germany but there was no thought of overwhelmingly crushing any great people.
 Restraint had been exercised, he said, and there was provision for making the reparation no greater than Germany could pay. He had been "astonished" at statements made about the treaty and was convinced many of them were made by men who had not read it or else had faIi- cd to comprehend its meaning.
 The League of Nations, the Presi- dent declared, was formed m fulfill ment of the promise that the United States was fighting this wa to lend business of that sort" forever. Not to establish the league, he said would be "unfaithfuT to those who had died
 If we do not do this thing" he declared, I've have neglected the central covenant we promised our people, The League of Nations is the only thing that can prevent the re- currence of this catastrophe
 Besides this" the President con tinued, "the treaty tears away the chains of oppression and gave small nationalities the right to live their own lives.
 That" he said, was the Ameri- can position and I was glad to fight for it'
 Italy" the President continued, had presented to the conference a contrary proposal in her request for Plume.
