WILSON HAL Ed.
| PEACE PLAN
| IN 1915
Pages Book Reveals How
Force Of Proposed Pact
Against Germany Failed

A secret attempt by President
Wilson to compel peace con-
ference in 1916, year before the
United States entered the world
war, was revealed today in the
publication of a new volume OF
the Life and Letters Of Walter
H. Page" wartime ambassador to
Great Britain, now dead.
The move, as revealed by the
book, was in the nature of a threat
that If Germany refused to &C
cept the conditions or participate,
the United States would then enter
the war on the side of the Allies.
The proposition was carried to
London by Colonel Edward M.
House, at that time Wilson'S closest
personal adviser and emissary. It
was discussed, the book relates
by House with .ex-Premier Asquith,
Premier Lloyd George, Viscount
Grey and Viscount Reading.
Grey was the only one who
openly favored it. An informal
memorandum was drawn up which
contained a stipulation that should
Germany refuse, the United States
would enter the war against Ger,
many"
when the memorandum was sub
mitted. to Wilson, according to
Page, the President inserted the
word probably" which so de
stroyed the force of 1t that British
statesmen lost confidence and the
plan was permitted to lapse.
