United States will then have the
courage to claim that there can be
found in the peace conditions one
single trace left OF President Wilson
program.
Americas Duty to Step In.
And here begins Americas definite
duty to step in. America either must
put its fourteen points through or II
must declare that it Is unable to do so,
or that II does not want to do So, so
that in no case may the world be led to
believe that America desires TO have the
peace conditions count as President Will
sons fourteen points.
THAT is our demand, to which we
cling and we cannot imagine what ar
gument from the American side would
be effective against it.
In President Wilson'S message to con
gress of Dec. 4, 1917, no passage can
be found in textual agreement with the
quotation in the cabinet statement The
quotation appears to be condensation
from the following passage in the mes
sage III question:
I'VE can do this concentrate on the
prosecution of the task of winning the
war; with all the greater zeal and en-
thusiasm because We know that for us
this is a war of high principle, debased
by no selfish ambition OF conquest or
spoiation. = 1t is because it is for
us a war Of high, disnterested purpose,
in which all the free peoples OF the
world are banded together for the vim
dcaton of right. a war for the preser-
walton of our nation and of all that it
has held dear of principle and Of pur-
pose that we feel ourselves doubly corr
strained to propose for its outcome only
that which is righteous and of irre-
proachable intention. for our foes as
well 81 fOr friends The he
ing just and holy, the settlement must
be of like motive and quality. For this
we can fight, but for nothing loss noble
or ,ess worthy OF our traditions

law. Toward the politico- moral
bankruptcy of Versailles the German
nation stands as a creditor with un-
deniablo rights. and ii is not in a po-
stion to yield on this chief point.
Germany concluded peace on the ba-
sis Of President Wilson's fourteen
points, which all America has made
its own. and all America, every in
dividual, is responsible for the full
filment of its claims.
"Up to" Wilson and Others.
"ft is not the German peoples bust
ness to indicate how its rights shall
be realized by the fourteen points, or
especially by the note OF Secretary
Lansing. That, rather. is the task of
those who constructed the fourteen
points and brought them to accep-
tance, thereby inducing Germany to
lay down he" weapons. We do not
believe that President Wilson, Secre-
tary Lansing and the American peo-
pie can take ether than this stand
point If they do not wish to do that
which President Wilson in his mes
sage of Dec. 4, 1917, condemned cate
gorically when he said: We would
dishonor our cause If we treated Ger
many any other than justly and in
a non partisan manner and did not
insist upon justice toward ALL no
matter how the war ended. We de-
mand nothing which we are not ready
ourselves to admit
"And the German people demand
nothing more than that which Presi-
1Snt Wilson announced in this dec
Iaration. We demand nothing more
than that Americans place the four
teen points opposite the peace terms.
