OttE I ENiNE, Wyo., Sept. "A
 Reading again the proposed senate reservation to article ten of the league covenant, President Wilson
 declared in an address here today
 that should any such reservation be
 adopted he would "be obliged as chief
 executive to regard it as a rejection of the treaty.
 The president added that rejection of the treaty would mean negotiation of separate peace with Germany, and asserted that such a negotiation could not change a single item of the peace settlement.
 The reservation read by the presi- dent was the same that he laid before his audience last night at the Salt Lake City tabernacle. By it's provi- sions the United States would assume no obligation to preserve the territo- rial integrity of other nations unless congress should so decided
 "It is as though you said We will not join any league now" said MT. Wilson, but may join it from time to time. We won't promise anything, but from time to time We may CO., operate.
 ''The things unworthy and ridicu lous. It means the rejection of the treaty, nothing less. The issue isl final. We cant avoid it. We've golI to make the decision now, and once made, there can be no turning back
 Unless the United States went into the league now, he added, and as sumed it's full responsibility, it would have to come in later with Germany.
 Referring to the reservation which he mentioned at Salt Lake, the presi- dent said in part:
 Assumes No Responsibility.
 "I understand this reservation is now up before the senate, and I wish you would lend a very earnest ear The United States assumes no obli- gations under the provisions of ar. ticle 10 to enter into the policies of any other country or between nations, whether members of the league or not, or to employ the forces of the United States for any purpose unless in any particular case. In other words, | 1 feel certain we will not leave this to guess work, but should consider ourselves bound to be definite. Vel should not allow ourselves to be in | for time. or from time to time want to say something in the council, but l we should assume obligations of the league to help the world and human ity along. In other words, this is ri | diculous and would change the entire treaty and would exclude the United States. It means rejection of the treaty; it means that the United States could take away it's support. | know there are some men who are in favor of this-men who are learned but 1 do not think they re- alize that the United States would be excluded from the treaty entirely | would ask you to consider this mat | ter very carefully, and for you to realize what the rejection of the treaty means to the people of Great | Britain and the people of the United States. Germany is not anxious for the United States to be among the nations in the league. She is not admitted to membership until she changes her entire government, and at that time she will be admitted with the rest of the representatives of the free peoples of the world.
 Means Separate Treaty.
 'T am not making this statement by conjecture, but am. getting it di- rectly from the mouths of persons in Germany, who are thoroughly famil- | far and know what the rejection of the treaty means. It means sepa' | rate treaty with Germany, and this would be against any of the doctrines of the league of nations, and the whole world would be against the United States. It would simply be a government of the United States hand in hand with Germany. Wei have come to ask that you will con slider it. There is no other way. America must face it now.
