til It satisfied every member OF the
league that II had fulfilled all its
obligations. Is there any reasonable
objection to such q reservation as
that? The senate was wise In put

On May 18th. President Wilson

those who are not going our way:
and In our might and majesty and In
the confidence OF our own purposes
We need not. and We should no, form

In 1914 President Wilson was
against such an alliance. as he is now
