Tert Of Address

President Wilson's speech at the As sociated Women's club luncheon, in part follows:
 Quite apart from the merits of any particular question which may arise about the treaty itself, l think we are under a certain moral compulsion to accept this treaty.
 In the first place it was laid down according to American specifications. The initial suggestion upon which this treaty is based emanated from Amer ica I would not have you understand me as meaning that they were ideas confined to America, because the promptness with which they were ac- cepted. the joy with which they were acclaimed in some parts of the world, the readiness of the leaders of nations that were supposed to be seeking chiefly their own interests in adopting these principles as the principles of the treaty. show that they were listening to the counsels of their own people; they were listening to them, and knew the critical character of the new age, and the necessity we were under to take any measures for the peace of the world.
 ETeNCnkiOH tNOl 0dtflSiCUls Because the thing that has hap pened was intolerable, the thing that Germany attempted, if it had sue ceeded, would have set the civiliza- tion of the world back 100 years. we have prevented it. But prevention is not enough.
 If you want as some Of our fellow countrymen insist, to dwell upon the material side of it and our interest ir the matter, our commercial interest draw the picture for yourselves. The other great nations of the world are | drawing together. Should we, whc suggested that they should draw to- 1 gether in this new partnership. stand aside?
 | We at once draw their intense hos 1 tility upon us. We at once renew the 1 thing that has begun 10 be done before We went into the war. There was . 1 conference in Paris not many months before we went into the war in which the nations then engaged against Ger. many attempted to draw togeter in ar 1 exclusive economic combination. where | they should serve one another's inter. ! est and exclude those who had not par l ticipated in the war from sharing il l that interest. And just so certainl, 1 as we stay out every market tha | can possibly be closed against us vii
 be closed.
 So that if you merely look at l from the material point of view of tn material prosperity of the Unite States. we are under compulsion t stay in the partnership.
 l l can not conceive. a motive ade quate to hold men off from this thing Used Religion as Ruse
 It was in 1898 that China ceded thes l rights and concessions to Germany The prateXt was that some Germa
 missionaries had been killed. My hear aches, I must say, when I think hoy
 we have made an excuse of religio
 sometimes to work a deep wrong. Tn central government of China had don
 all 1t could to protect those Germa-
 missionaries. Their death was due t
 local disturbances, to local passions, t
 local antipathy against the foreigner
 There, was nothing that the Chimes
 government as a whole could justi
 be held responsible for But suppos

 was no adequate excuse for what Ger many exacted of China.
 Then Russia came in and oblige China to cede to her Port Arthur an Ta-Lien- Wan, not for quite so long period but upon substantially the sam terms. Then England must needs hay Wei Hei Wei as an equivalent conces sion to that which had been made
 Germany. And presently certain port
 and territory back of them were cede upon similar principles to Franc Everybody got in except the Unite
 States and said, If Gerpnanv is goin
 to get something, we will get some 1 thing" Why? No one of them wa entitled to it: no one or them had an | business in there on such terms. An
 then when the Japan Russian WE
 came, Japan did what she has dor
 in this war-she attacked Port Arthl
 and captured Port Arthur and Pc Arthur was ceded to her as a const
 quence of the war
 Not Robbing China Now, in the meantime, before we q
 into this war, but after the war hs begun, because they deemed the assis
 ance of Japan in the Pacific absolute
 indispensable Great Britain and Fran,
 both agreed that if Japan would ent,
 the war, she could do the same thir
 with regard to Shantung that she hs done with regard to Port Arthur < that if she would take what German
 had in Shantung she could keep it. (Contfnued on Page Two)
