claimed for President Wilson that he
kept US out of war; now he would
keep us in. Passage of the peace
resolution will put the United States
back on a normal basis without sac
rificing or surrendering any of the
rights or privileges to which it is
entitled by reason of participation in
the war" said Campbell.
THE President STILL with the advice
and consent of the Senate, may nego-
tiate and conclude a treaty with Ger
many at any time" he argued. I'VE
have grave domestic questions of the
greatest Importance that make the
proposed action not only advisable
but Imperative.
'"The President and others, who OBJ
ject to the resolution, give no reasons
that appeal to the judgment and COM
mon sense of the American people for
the position they take. IL we are still
at war with Germany, our own people
are giving aid and comfort to the
enemy. There is no suggestion from
the President that trade with Germany
should not continue. 1t Is not the

under which the United States shall
resume the normal conditions of peace
with Germany after the war"

"From the time the German ambas-
