was heard and captive nationalities
from their age-long jails cried Out
to us for help. Yes, more, they es-
capped to come to our aid.
POLAND came to life again and
sent US troops. The Czecho-Slo-
yaks won their right to indie
pendence in Siberia, in France and
in Italy. The Jugo-Slavs, the
Armenians,. the Syrians and Levan-
tines, the Arabs, all the victims,
long helpless or resigned, of the his
toric deeds of injustice; all the
martyrs of the past, all the out
ragged in conscience, all the stran-
gled in liberty, turned to us, their
natural defenders.
Crusade For Right.
1.-THE war gradually attained the
fullness of its first significance and
became in the full sense Of the
term a crusade of humanity for
right, and if anything can console
us, in part at least, for the losses
we have suffered, it is assuredly the
thought that our victory also is
the victory of right.
I'm the interest of justice and
peace it now rests with you to reap
from this victory its full fruits.
'Vainly would our enemies seek
to divide us. If they have not yet
renounced their customary maneu-
v RS they will soon find that they
are meeting today, as during the
hostilities, a homogeneous block
which nothing will be able to disin-
tegrate. Even before the armistice
you reached that necessary unity
under the aid of the lofty moral and
political truths of which President
Y -.lson has nobly made himself the
interpreter and in the light of these
truths you intend to accomplish
your mission.
"You will, therefore, seek nothing
but justice; justice that has no ia
vorites; justice in territorial prob
lens, justice in financial problems,
justice ins economic problems. But
justice is not inert; it does not sub
nit to injustice. What it demands
first when it has been violated are
restitution and reparatioL for the
peoples and individuals who have
been despoiled. In formulating this
lawful claim it obeys neither hatred
nor an instructive or fhoughtless de-
sire for reprisals. II pursues a
twofold obiect-7to render to each
his due and not to encourage crime
by leaving it unpublished.
Demand Punishment Of Guilty.
what justice also demands, in
spired by the same feeling, is the
punishment of the guilty and effec-
tive guarantees against an active re-
turn of the spirit by which they are
prompted, and it is logical to de-
mand that these guarantees should
be given, above all, TO the nations
that might again be most exposed
to aggression.
What justice banishes is the
dream of conquest and Imperialism,

Gentlemen France greets and thanks you for having
chosen the seat of your abos the city which for
than four years the enemy has made his principal military
objective and which the valor of the allied armies has vic

Alaska Steamer With
24O Passengers Aboard
Sends Out S. 0. S. Call

Victoria, B. C., Jan. 1S.-A wire
less message tonight from the
steamer Admiral Watson reported
it had broken a crank shaft in
Queen Charlotte sound and was in
immediate need of assistance. A
strong southeast wind was blowing
and the steamer was reported in a
dangerous position.
The steamer Valdez, within an
hours steaming distance of the
Watson. and the Chelhosin, three
hours away, were hurrying to aid
the Watson.
Later wireless reports said tenn
porary repairs had been made to
the broken crank shaft and that the
steamer was proceeding to Alert
bay escorted by the Valdez. The
Admiral Watson is bound to Seattle
and has 240 passengers aboard.

IF after long vicissitudes, those
who wished to reign by the sword

have only themselves to blame.
They have been destroyed by their

than the shameful bargains they at
tempted to offer to Great Britain
and France at the end of July, 1914.
when to Great Britain they suggest

mel, and when they instructed their
ambassador to say to France: We
will only accept a declaration of
neutrality on your part if you sur
render to us Briey, Toul and Yer

things, gentlemen, that all the con.

Ideas in Conflict.
'Thus, from the very beginning OF
hostilities there came into conflict
the two ideas which for so months
were to struggle for the dominion
Of the world--the idea of sovereign
force, which accepts neither control
nor check, and the idea of justice,
which depends on the sword only
to prevent or repress the abuse OF
strength"
President Poincare then detailed
how the various nations entred the
struggle.
He continued:
THE intervention of the United
States was something more, some
thing greater than great political
and military event. 1t was
supreme judgment based by the
lofty conscience .of free people on
the enormous responsibilities IN
Cured in the frightful conflict.
1T was not only to protect itself
from the audacious aims of German
megalomania that the United States
equipped fleets and created immense
armies, but also and above all, to
defend an ideal of liberty over
which it saw the huge shadow of
the imperial eagle encroaching fur

eloquently given expression to, as
tribute to the man. When / was
a school boy M. Clemenceau was
compelling and conspicuous fig
ure in the politics of his native land
and his fame had extended far be-
yond the bounds of France.
Were it not for that undoubted
fact, Mr.. President, / should have
treated as legend the common re-
port of your years. | have attended
many conferences with M. Clemen-
ceau, and in them all the most Wig
orous, the most enduring and the
most youthful figure there has been
that of NJ. Clemenceau. He has had
the youthfulness; he has had the
hopefulness and the fearlessness of
youth. He is indeed the Grand
Young Man of France, and / am
proud to stand here to propose that
he should take the chair in this great
conference that is to settle the peace
of the world.
World Eager for Peace.
"But although there will be de-
lays, and inevitable delays, in the
signing of peace, due to the inherent
difficulties of what we have to set
tie, | will guarantee from my
knowledge of M. Clemenceau that
there will be no waste of time. And
that is important
The world is thirsting and hun
gering for peace. There are millions
OF people who want to get back to
the world work of peace. And the
fact that M. Clemenceau is in the
chair will be proof that they will
get there without any delays which
are due to anything except the diff
hculties which are essential in what
we have to perform. He is one of
the great speakers of the world.
But no one knows better than he,
that the best speaking is that which
impels benefcent actions"
Response by Clemenceau.
Premier Clemenceau responded
in part by saying:
It is great, splendid and noble
ambition which has come to all of
US. It is desirable that success
should crown our efforts. This can
not take place unless we all have
firmly fixed and clearly determined
ideas on what we wish to do.
Il said in the chamber a few
days ago, and I wish to repeat here.
that success is not possible unless
we remain firmly united. We have
come together as friends; we must
leave this hall as friends.
"All else must be subordinated to
the necessity of closer and closer
Union among the nations who have
taken part in this great war and to
the necessity of remaining friends.
For the league of nations is here.
It is yourself. It is for you to make
II live and to make it live we must
have it really in our hearts.
AS / told President Wilson

not doubt that you all have the
same sentiments. We will make the
sacrifices, but on the condition that
we endeavor impartially to con-
ciliate interests apparently contra
dictory on the higher plane of a
greater, happier and better hui
manity. That, gentlemen, is what
| had to say to you. / am touched
beyond words at the evidence of
good will and friendship which you
show me.
"The program of this conference
has been laid down by President
Wilson. 1t is no longer the peace

longer the peace of continents; it

made. This program is sufficient in
itself. There is no superfious word.
