Washington, July 10.-President
Wilson in presenting the peace treaty
with Germany to the Senate to-day
declared that "a league of free ma
tions has become a practical neces-
sity," to which the trainers of the
treaty felt obliged to turn "as an
indispensable instrumentality for
the maintenance of the new order 1T
has been their pupose to set up in
the world"
The most skepticar' of the peace
conferees at Paris, the President
said. had turned more and more to
the league as discussion progressed
in seeking solution of the problems
that arose in framing the term of the
treaty itself.
THE fact that the covenant of the
league was the first substantive part
of the treaty to be worked out and
agreed upon" the President said,
while all else was in solution, help
ed to make the formulation of the
rest easier"
Mr.. Wilson said the agreement on
the covenant had given the con-
ferees feeling that their work was
to be permanent and that the most
practical among them were at last
the most ready to refer to the
League of Nations the superinten-
dence of all interests which did not
admit of immediate determination,
of all administrative problems which
were to require a continuing over
sight.
Greeted by Yells
What had seemed a counsel of
perfection" said the President, had
come to seem a plain counsel of
necessity. The League of Nations
was the practical statesman's hope
of success in many of the most diff
ficult things he was attempting"
When the President entered the
Senate chamber, escorted by COM
mittee of senators. the crowded gal
leries rose and cheered for a min
ute in disregard of the Senate rules.
The President, mounting to the vice
presidents seat, spoke briefly with
ce-President Marshall as the
cheering continued. punctured with
rebel yells.
No Explanation of Terms
President Wilson to-day laid the
peace treaty with Germany before
the Senate without any attempt to
explain its specific terms. His ad-
dress. which required forty minutes
for delivery, was devoted almost
wholly to the League of Nations.
American lSOlaJlOn, the GTeSiuenJ
said, ended twenty years ago at the
close of the war with Spain. Fear
of American motives now also had
ended, he declared.
There can be no question of our
ceasing to be a world power" said
Mr.. Wilson. The only question is
whether we can refuse the moral
leadership that is offered us, whether
we shall accept or reject the con-
fidence of the world"
The war and the Peace Conference
in his opinion, the President said,
had already answered that question,
"and nothing but our mistaken ac-
ton can alter it
After the end of the great war.
the President said, every enlighten-
ed judgment demanded that. at
whatever cost of independent action,

DECLARES u. S. FOUGHT
TO FREE WHOLE WORLD
Foes Sins Fully Realized by Ameri-
cons Whose Hearts Were Shocked
by Hun Acts.

Paris, Dec. 17.-In addressing Presi-
dent Wilson at the city hall ceremo-
MES, the final formal reception 20 the
American executive, Adrien MithOu-
ard, president of the municipal council
of Paris, said:
81 have the honor, in the presence of
the president of the republic, to pre-
sent to you the municipal council of
Paris, whose interpreter l am in well
coming the chief of the great nation
whose aid, arriving so OPPORTUNITY
brought us victory, and the upright
man whose conscience fashioned his
policy and whose diplomacy was made
of loyalty"
The president replied in part as fol-
lows:
your greeting has raised many emo
tons within me. 1t is with no ordinary
sympathy that the people of the Uni
ted States, for whom l have the priv
ilege Of speaking, have viewed the
sufferings of the people of France.
Many of our own people have been
themselves witnesses of those suffer
ings. We were the more deeply
moved by the wrongs of the war be-
cause we knew the manner in which
they were perpetrated.
Il beg that you will not suppose that
because a wide ocean separated US in
space we were not in effect eyewit-
nesses to the shameful ruin that was
wrought and the cruel and unnecessary
sufferings that were brought upon you.
"When the United States entered
the war, therefore, they entered it not
only because they were moved by a
conviction that the purposes of the
central empires was wrong and must
be resisted by men everywhere who
loved liberty and the right, but also
because the Illicit ambitions which
they were entertaining and attempt
ing to realize had led to the prac-
tees which shocked our hearts as
much as they offended our principles"
