WILSON HOPES FOR
PEACE FOR RUSSIA
PRESIDENTIAL ACTION IN AID
OF ARMENIA CONDITIONED
ON TRUCE.
League Of Nations Informed That
Powers Must Agree Not to Abet
Attacks on Soviet N He is to
Proceed With overtures.

WashIngton--A "public and solemn"
engagement among the great powers
not to violate, or to permit the viola
ton OF, the territorial integrity of
Russia Is regarded by President Will
son as the sine qua non of an attempt
at the paclflcatlon OF Armenia and
other states bordering on the former
empire.
His views are given in note trans
mitted to Paul Hymans, president OF
the league OF nations assembly, by
acting Secretary Of State Davis. made
public January %.
The "dlstressful situation" OF Ar.
menia, Invaded by both the Turkish
nati0nalists and the soviets, is only
one detail of the Russian problem,
the president says, and he urges his
conviction that II is only by a general
and comprehensive treatment OF the
problem, "only by full cooperation Of
the principal powers" that n hopeful
approach to the paciflcation and lnde
pendence OF Armenia can be found.
The president says he has never
believed that the problems raised by
the bolshevik coup could be solved
by outside military actions. and he
expresses the hope that the tragical
events on the Polish front and In the
Crimea have convinced the world
that armed invasion is not the way 10
bring peace to Russia.
Settlement Within.
Mr.. Wilson adds that these events
have only strengthened his convictions
that the Russian revolution must be-
developed to satisfactory conclusion
by the Russians, with such help as
may be voluntarily received"
The problem, he Nys, Is one OF re-
lations between central Russian and
surrounding smaller national groups.
Bitter and mutual dlstrust, he stntes.
Is the cause OF the unrest and instabll.
ity along the border; the struggling
new nationallties are afraid TO dlsarm
and return to peace. because they dis
trust the bolsheviki, whilo the soviets
contend rhey are afraid 70 demoblllze.
fearing new attacks.
Time PropltIous.
Mr.. Wilson Expresses the opinion
that the present offers peculiarly
pressing challenge" 70 an attempt ut
general paclflcatloA on the Russian
borders along the lines of a clear dis
tinction between offense and defense
"Such an attempt seems to the presi-
dent TO be the only logical develop
ment OF the request TO mediate IN the
Armenian conflict. II is oh.
vlous that these small, struggling bor-
der states will not attack great Rus.
STA unless encouraged by promise OF
support from the stronger powers"
the note says.
Would Xix Responsibility.
The president suggests public and
solemn declaration among the powers
TO refrain from extending such aid.
declaring that In this way responsible
ity for any new war on the Russian
border would be CLEARLY placed"
"If the principal powers represented
on the council OF the league" Mr.
Wilson concludes. "find themselves In
accord with the president, and will as.
sure him Of their moral and diplomatic
support, he will Instruct his personal
representative Mr.. Morgnnthau, to
proceed on his mlSsiop."
