RECOMMENDS BOTH
PACT AND LEAGUE
THE PRESIDENT STRONGLY IN
FAVOR OF FAVORABLE AND
PROMPT ACTION.
NEW WORLD ORDER ASSURED
Great Peoples VIII Be Liberated Who
Have Never Before Been Able to
Find Path to Liberty.

Washington.-Presiden Wilson In
an address to the American people on
the occasion OF the signing OF the
peace treaty, made plea for the ac
ceptance OF the treaty and the cove
nant of the league of nations without
change or reservation.
His message, given out here by Sec
rotary Tumulty, said
My fellow countrymen;
THE treaty of peace has been sign
ed. II il is ratified and acted upon in
full and sincere execution OF its terms,
IL will furnish the charter for a new
order OF affairs in the world II Is a
severe treaty In the duties and pen
allies it imposes upon Germany, but II
Is severe only because great wrongs
done by Germany are to be righted
and repaired; 1t imposes nothing that
Germany cannot do; and she can re-
gain her rightful standing in the world
by the prompt and honorable fulfill
ment OF its terms.
"And ii is much more than treaty
of peace with Germany II liberates
great peoples who have never before
been able to find the way to liberty
II ends, once for all an old and in
tolerable order under which small
groups OF selfish men could use the
peoples OF great empires to serve their
ambition for power and dominion II
associates the free governments OF
the world In permanent league In
which they are pledged to use their
united power to maintain peace by
maintaining right and justice. II
makes international law reality sup
ported by imperative sanctions. II
does away with the right OF conquest
and rejects the policy OF annexation
and substitutes new order under
which backward nations populations
which have not yet come to political
consciousness and peoples who are
ready for independence, but not yet
quite prepared to dispense with pro.
lection and guidance shall no more
be subjected to the domination and
exploitation OF a stronger nation, but
shall be put under the friendly direc-
ton and afforded the helpful assist
ance OF governments which undertake
to be responsible for the opinion OF
mankind In the execution OF their
task by accepting the direction Of the
league Of nations.
Signed WOODROW WILSON"

Elbe, where II would be attacked by
strong German forces, the Danzig cor.
respondent Of the Tageblatt declares
in a dispatch describing the details
OF secret plan to create a separate

The plan failed because Of jealousies
and differences of opinion between
the government and the army leau-
ers, the correspondent says.
"a report from Geneva said Herr
Scheidemann had arrived In Switzer-
land after crossing the frontier on
foot)
The last proposal made by the con-
spirators planning to oppose the al
lies, It Is said, was to ask Poland to
combine with eastern Germany In the
formation OF an independent republic.
The offer, 1t is declared was rebuffed
by the Poles. who asked why II had

Amsterdam. The allied and asso

the Dutch government In the name OF
the league OF nations to see that Herr
