WILSON GAINS.
SHADOW LIFTS
Year Ago Today President Be-
gan Tour That Proved
His Breakdown.
Ny FRANK X. LAdB.

One year ago today President Will
son started on his trans -co tine ntai
trip, the one that returned him
twenty-five days later a sick. broken
msn-what his frienus nov call "a
martyr to the League OF Nations.
IL was with high hopes and con
ndence in the American people that
the chief Executive departed the Cap
ital. although the long strain OF
months before had made him hardly
physically perfect for the great task
he was undertaking. However. he
was wiling for the sacrifice OF his
own strength and. went forth with a
grim determination TO report to the
people"
Today the same President is slowly
recovering within the seclusion OF
the White House from the ordesl he
underwent during those twenty-five
days. He has come out OF the vcrit-
able shadows OF death, as IL Is mo-
secret that during the past eleven
months the life Of the President at
times has hung by a thread. There
is the consolation, nevertheless, that
this day the President is gradually
approaching health again, although
|sntvcr again will be the same robust
man he was year ago.
President Wilson Is now building
his hopes for the salvation OF the
Versailles treaty on the "solcWn ref
crendum" in November. He has never
abandoned hope that the treaty will
ultimately triumph, but the progress
to that end has been more tediously
slow than he had anticipated.
"BACk PORCH RUMOR.
Just how active the President viii
be In the campaign to elect Governor
Cox as his successor to the White
House is coniecturaI. There have
been divers reports as to the means
he will adopt to aid the Democratic
kominee to his utmost, among them
the rather absurd suggestion of a
back porch campaign, but those
| closest to him assert that he will
make his influence felt in an impress
sive way at the proper time.
Something as to the Presidents fu-
ture plans are invariably associated
nowadays with stories about his a.
tvities. 1t is variously assumed with
reason that he will devote much of
his available time in days TO come in
the preparation of a review of the
world war. particularly those intimate
| phases known best by himself. His
close friends admit such a course Is
the natural one for him to follow in
view OF I'll conditions
TO MAKE HOME HERE.
There Is no doubt that the Presi-
dent and Mrs! Wilson have about de-
| cided TO remain in Washington after
they leave the White House. The
President may be described properly
as "a man without a home" as his
years at Princeton and Trenton left
him no ties that would naturally
draw him back to either place at
present On the other hand, Mrs. Will
son has long made the Capital her
home, as have her near relatives, so
logically her inclination would be tc
rcmain here.
Aside from these natural reasons
there is the added fact that lately the
President and Mrs. Wilson have been
| house hunting" Their daily motor
rides about the city have afforded
them an excellent opportunity to in
lspect casually desirable spots for their
| future home. They have virtually
secured the suburbs and all the coun-
| tryside during their rides, although
The Washington times., 1920-09-03

IL Is not understood that they have
made anything like a choice as yet.
The best guess TO be had at present
IL that the President and Nrs. Wilson
may locate In the vicinity OF tleve-
land Park. community which they
have explored" from various aspects.
There is nothing definite In this sur
misc. but II would not surprise those
in touch with the Presidents family
to learn that the President and Mrs.
Wilson had purchased home In
Cleveland Park.

dent just one year from the day he

thought perhaps would terminate with

reserved ratification OF the Versailles

genuine sentiment In the comment
about the White House today. when
IL was recalled that the day was the
anniversary OF the fsteful trip.

sions which, based upon the wish
of the local population, the economic
necessities and the national rights,
will create a state of things that
will render impossible a feeling OF
suffered wrong and future reclama-
tions.
The Polish government however.
: has the honor to draw the atten-
tion of the United States Govern
ment to the circumstance that the
provisional eastern frontier laid
down by the peace conference has
not been respected by the Bolshevtk
government. In spite OF the diplo-
matte Intervention Of our allies, the
red army has for a whole month
advanced and ravaged territory
which is admitted by ALI as being
ethnographically Polish.
FACED, DANGER ALONE.
Notwithstanding the sympathetic
attitude OF our allies, the Polish
nation had to face the danger alone,
and political events proved that it
must in the first place rely upon its
own military strength. If military
operations necessitated the meas
ures to prevent a renewed invasion
of Poland, It could hardly be con-
sidered fair that artificial bounda-
ries that do not bind our opponent
should interfere with the military
operations of the other.
However, the Polish government
hopes that speedy and just peace
will put aside any difficulties which
might arise in the case of further
war. 1t is very gratifying for he
Polish nation to feel that in the ef-
forts to arrive at n just peace il
has the support of the United States
Governments sympathetic attitude"

have been requested by the
government OF the Republic OF
Poland TO convey TO you. Mr.. Sec
retary, its thanks for the essential
principles on the Polish situation
expressed in your note OF August
10 to the Italian ambassador.
The declaration that the United
States Government and the Ameri-
can Nation are. by way OF employ
ment OF all available means solicit
tous for the maintenance OF poiiticai
independence and territorial intes-
rity OF a united. free and autono-

ing to the Polish nation and has
been highly appreciated ~ the
Polish government as a guarantee
that the rights of the Polish nation
shall never be curtailed. Poland
sees In IL the manifestation OF the
deep sympathy which unites both
nations. and which has so many
times been demonstrated in their
historial development.
am authorized TO express to the
United States Government deep
gratitude for it's open condemnation
of the political system and methods
of the Bolshevik government.
PROVED MORAL SUPPORT.
The note OF August 10 reached
Warsaw at a time when Poland was
flooded by overwhelming BolsheVik
forces. and when. owing to the lack
OF material means, only great
moral strength could win the battle
Of Warsaw. At this decisive mo-
ment the weighty words expressed
in the note proved valuable moral
support
BY the supreme effort OF. our ma
tional army not only was Warsaw

which are contrary to the general
conception OF justice and demoe-

I have great pleasure In assuring
you. In the name OF the Polish gov

OF sympathy for the RUSSIAN people
as manifested by the American
Government.
This war, which was forced upon
us by the attack made on Polish
cities, Is a defensive war and lis

against the Russian people.

from Bolshevik oppression. when
for two and a half years has been
destroying the moral and material
strength of Russia.
And, indeed. in this struggle With
the soviet government, whose armies
are still' devastating Polish terri
tories, the Polish government has
always been guided only by it's duty
to defend the independence and
territorial integrity OF Poland and
guard Europe against the Dolshcvik

This Government fully appre-

which attend dealings with the

the note to the Italian ambassador,

be the exhibition Of moderation by
