IreIand's Name Not Mentioned.

President Wilson has not yet men,
toned Iceland by name, but his illusions
to the Irish cause are increasingly direct
as his promises OF reward for support ,
the league grow bigger. He hints now
that the League of Nations will look
benevolently upon the Irish people IL
they revolt against the British rule.
There is one thing" he says. with an
eye on the attentive Irishmen in his
audiences. there Ia one thing you have
not stopped and that I, for my part, do
not desire to stop. and think I am au-
thorized to speak for a great many of
my colleagues, IL not all of my col
leagues at Paris, that they do not wish
to stop IT, 1t does not stop the right of
revolution. 1t does not stop the choice
of self determination. No nation prom
Uses to protect any Government against
the wishes and actions of It's own peo-
rle or of any portion OF its own people.
Why, how could America join In prom
Use like that? She threw off the yoke
of Government. Shall we present any
other people from throwing off the yoke
that they are unwilling to bear? She
never WILL and no other Government
ever WILL under this covenant"
He continues to state that Great
Britains six votes in the Assembly of
League of Nations give the British no
undue influence or authority; that they
no more than balance the one vote of
the United States: for he maintains that
the Assembly is merely a deliberative
body and that the big decisions the real
authority will come from and abide in
the council where the British, like Amer
lea, have one vote only. Since he has
been saying this in the West the Pres-
dent has been accused of misstating the
facts, accused of failing to tell the peo-
pie that on occasion the Assembly can
dominate the council.
The President made brief speech in
the middle of this afternoon to a large
crowd which greeted him at Ogden, say
ing that there are some men in public
life who do not seem to be in touch with
the heart of the people and adding:
I'VE must set our purposes in a very
definite way to assist the Judgment OF
public men. I do not mean In any way
to coerce the judgment Of public men.
hut TO enlighten and assist that judg-
ment. for I am convinced after crossing
the continent that so per cent. of the
United States are for the League of
Natione and that the chief opposition
comes from the very disquioting element
that we had to deal with before and
during the war"
The Presidential special arrived at
Salt Lake City at 80 p NJ and the
President found large crowd at the
station and in the streets. He was
greeted at the Union Depot by Gov.
Bamberger. who escorted him in a motor
car journey to Fort Douglas.

This is the heart OF the covenant,
and what are these gentlemen afraid
Of? Nothing can be done under that
article of the treaty without the con-
sent of the United States. i chal-
lenge them to draw any other deduo-
ton from the provisions of the cove
nant itself. In every case where the
league takes action the unanimous
vote of the council of the league is
necessary. The United States is a
permanent member of the council of
the league. Its affirmative vote is
in every case necessary for every af-
firmative, or for that matter every
negative action.
These gentlemen say we don't want
the United States drawn into every
little European squabble. Why, OF
course we don't, and under the
League of Nations II Is entirely with

deserves the greatest of all audiences.
l must admit to a very considerable
degree OF unaffected diffidence In pre-
senting this theme because the theme
is SO much bigger than any mans
capacity to present Il adequately. 1t
Is n theme which must engage the
enthusiastic support of every lover
of humanity, every man who pro-
fesses Christian convictions. Be
cause we are now as a nation asked
to make what / cannot help charac-
terizing as the most critical decision
we have ever made In the history OF
America.
We sent our boys across the sea to
defeat the purposes of Germany. We
engaged that IL they would defeat the
purposes of Germany we would COM
plete what they had begun and make
such arrangements of International
concert as would make it impossible
for any such attempt ever to be made
again.
The question, therefore, is: Shall
we see 1t through, or shall we now at
this most critical juncture of the
whole transaction turn away from
our associates in the war, decline to
complete and fulfil our sacred prom
ises to mankind?
j have now crossed the continent,
my fellow countrymen, and am on my
way East again, and I feel qualified
to render testimony as to the attitude
of this great national toward the
covenant OF the league, and L say
without the slightest hesitation that
an overwhelming majority of our fell
low countrymen purposes that these
covenants shall be adopted.
One by one the objections to 1t have
melted away. One by one 1t has be-
come evident that the objections
urged against it were without suf-
flcient foundation. One by one 1t
has become impossible to support
them as objections.
Nobody doubt any longer that the
covenant gives explicit, unqualified
recognition tn the Monroe Doctrine.
Indeed, it does more than that. 1t
adopts the principle of the Monroe
Doctrine as the principle of the world.

fellow countrymen, to discuss that
