WILSON SENDS WORD
President Issues Proclamation on
Peace Treaty.
Declares Document Is Charter for New
Order Of Things All Over
World.

Washington, June 3O.-Word OF the
signing OF the peace treaty was fol-
lowed by a proclamation from Presi-
dent Wilson, issued at the White
House. 1t follows:
My Fellow Countrymen:
The treaty OF peace has been signed.
II 1t is ratified and acted upon in full
and sincere execution of it's terms, it
will furnish the charter for a new
order Of affairs in the world.
1t is severe treaty in the duties
and penalties it imposes upon Ger.
many, but it is severe only because
the great wrongs done by Germany
are to be righted and repaired; it i'm.
poses nothing that Germany cannot
do; and she can regain her rightful
standing in the world by the prompt
and honorable fulfillment of it's terms.
And it is much more than a treaty of
peace with Germany. 1t liberates
great peoples who have never before
been able to find the way to liberty.
1t ends, once for all, an old and intol-
cradle order under which small groups
Of selfish men could use the people Of
great empires to serve their own am
billions for power and dominion.
1t 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. It
makes International law a reality sup
ported by imperative sanctions. It
does away with the right of conquest
and rejects the policy of annexation
and substitutes a new order, under
which backward nations
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 to the opinion of
mankind in the execution of their task
by accepting the direction of the
League Of Nations.
1t recognizes the inalienable rights
Of nationalities; the rights of minor.
tiles and the sanctity of religious be-
liefs and practices. 1t lays the basis
for conventions which shall free the
commercial Intercourse of the world
from unjust and vexatious restrictions
and for every sort of International CO.
operation that will serve to cleanse
the life of the world and facilitate it's
common action with benef1cent serv-
ice of every kind.
It furnishes guarantees such as
were never given or even contemplat-
ed before for the fair treatment of all
who labor at the daily tasks of the
world. 1t is for this reason that I
have spoken of it as a great charter
for a new order Of affairs. There is
ground for deep satisfaction, universal
reinsurance and confident hope.
Woodrow Wilson.

NORMAL PERSONS NO LONGER ::
LIVE IN ALL RUSSIA
, Starvation Forces People of Country
to Lose Their Mental Balance.

LONDON, June 26.-Physically
normal persons no longer are to he
t;,:.nd in Petrograd nor in all Russia
says T. Hessen, we'll known Moscow
journalist and member of the second
Duma who has, arrived in Copen-
hagen after long stay in Petrograd.
The mental state produced by starry
alton, disease and nervous strain, he
says, forces Russians to lose their
mental balance.
"Their mental condition so changes
their appearance that often one can
not recognize ones nearest friend. I
remember the impression I had when
l met the we'll known lawyer, Ra-
jeffshi. At first I did not recognize
him. Soon afterward I learned that
he had hanged himself.
similar things happen daily. I
think it is to be wondered that such
suicides do not become general. In
all the streets one meets still we'll
dressed people, men and women, beg
ging. There they stand some of them
with their heads down, dumb as if
turned to stone; others tonelessly re-
peating I. am dying. Give me some
thing to eat
Even if one has sufficient money
to pay the enormous prices one may
make acquaintance with starvation, -
wrote Mr. Hansen to the Copenhagen
Politiken. "One has to get hold of
seller and persuade him to sell by
treating him to some coffee, giving
him the place of honor and so on.
Money does not tempt him. He can
always get money. He needs it only
in order to continue his trade, or to
buy Injuries such as sable fur coats,
gold ornaments or gems. 1t is not
the seller who looks for a buyer but
just the contrary.
"Not rarely mothers are seen (who
have left at home their underfed
sick children) pleading with milk
women to yield up half a. bottle of
milk at quite shameless sum and it
may happen that the milkwomen
suddenly becomes capricious and
does not even answer the unhappy
applicant
"Add to this the terrible typhus
and there is not the slightest posi-
bility of protection. Remarkably
enough the cholera epidemic that
flourished last summer ceased sud-
denly as if by a within of nature.
But now the typhus and smallpox
epidemics are developing. more and
more seriously. The government has
no means to check them. The gov
eminent cannot even procure wood
enough for collins nor transport to
the cemeteries. The survivors must
wait days before they can bury the
dead.
1T is obvious that people under
such conditions with such SUPER
human efforts of energy demanded
OF them cannot continue to keep
their mental balance"
