today that the issue involved in his
tour was IAN issue of war or peace.
There was only one way that peace
could be maintained and that was by
league. of nations.
Should the movement for a world
conference fail, he said. the heart of
mankind would be overwhelmed by de-
spair which would end In chaos.
% At

If we stay out or qualify our position
In any way the world will saw There
can be no peace.
All the processes Of economic re-
habilitation waited on a peace basis
because the world Is waiting for
peace. The great coal fields Of Europe
are not being worked and the whole
Industry is chilled. while we debate
all the world is raging today. Why
does America hesitate!" $751;.
He declared there was no danger Of
America staying out Of the league,
eventually and reversing all the pro-
cesses of her history. But 1t was her
delay that was upsetting affairs every
where.
Referring to proposals to separate
and peace terms from the league COW
enant. Mr.. Wilson said that the lague
had been put first because without 1T
the peace treaty would be worthless.
That was unanimously decided at
Paris because the conference realized
that there must be some way to en-
force it,
Replying to criticisms Of article X,
Mr.. Wilson reiterated that the article
had no force with the consent Of the
United States senate.
"UnIcss 1t is our war we can't be
dragged into war without our consent
That is an open and shut question.
That Is the heart of tho treaty. You
have to take it or you have to throw
that world back into the old contest
over land titles"
