President Wilson in presenting the peace treaty and the League of Na- tions to the senate today spoke as fol- low “Gentlemen of the senate: The treaty of peace with Germany was sign- od at Versailles on the 28th of June. I avail myself of the earliest opportunity to Jay the treaty’ before you for ratifi- cation and to inform you with regard to the work of the conference by which that treaty was formulated. “The treaty constitutes nothing less than a world settlement. It. would not be possible for me either to summarize or to construe its manifold provisions | in an address which of necessity must he something less than a treatise, My services and all the information I pos-: sess will be at your disnosal and at the disposal of your committee on foreign relations at any time, either informally or in session as you may prefer: and I hope you will not hesitate to make use of them. “I shall at this time, prior to your own study of the document, attempt only a general characterization of its scope and purpose, “In one sense, no doubt, there is no need that I should report to you what was attempted and done at Paris. You have been daily cognizant of what was going on there, of the problems with Which the peace conference had to deal and of the difficulty of laying down straight lines of settlement anywhere on a field on which the old lines of international relationship and the new alike, followed so intricate a. pattern and were for the most part cut so deep by historieal circumstances which dom- inated action where it would have. been best to ignore or reverse them. The cross currents of politics and of inter- est must have been evident, to you. It would be presuming in me to attempt to explain the. questions which arose or the many diverse elements that entered into them. _- 2 “T’shall attempt something less ami- tious than this and more clearly sug- gested by my duty to report to the congress the part it seemed necessary for my colleagues and. me to play as the representatives of the government of the United States. i AMERICA’S ROLE. “That part was decided by the role America had played in the war and by the expectations that had been created in the minds of the peoples with whom; we had associated ourselves in that great struggle. “The United States entered the war upon a different. footing from every other nation except our associates on this side of the sea. We entered it not because our material interests were d+ rectly threatened or because any spec- jin} treaty obligations to which we were rarties had been violated, but only be- cause we saw the supremacy and even the validity, of right everywhere put in jeojardy and free government likely to he everywhere imperiled by the intol- érable aggression of a power which re- spected neither right nor obligation and whose very system of government flout- ed the rights of the citizen as against the autocratic authority of his gover- nors. And in the settlements of the peace we have sought no special repar- ation for ourselves: but only the restor- ation for ourselves, but only the resor- ation of right and the asurance of lib- erty everywhere that the effects of the settlement were to be felt. We entered , the war as the disinterested champions ‘against the central powers were at a jlow countrymen and comrades in of right and we interested ourselves in the terms of the peace in no other ¢n- pacity, HOPES AT LOW EBB “The hopes of the nations allied very low ebb when our soldiers began to pour across the sea, There was everywhere Amongst them, except in their stoutest spirits 2 sombre fore- boding of disaster.’ The war ended in November, eight months ago, but you have only to recall what was fear- eG in midsummer last, four short iconths before the armistice to realize what it was that our timely aid ac- ecmplished alike for their morale and their physical safety. That first, never to be forgotten action at Chateau Thierry had already taken place. Our redoubtable soldiers and marines had already closed the gap the enemy had sticceeded in opening for their advance on Paris—had already turned the tide of battle back towards the frontiers of France and begun the rout that was to seve Europe and the world. Thereafter the Germans were always forced back, were never to thrust successfully for- ward again. And yet there was no confident hope. An anxious crowd of men and’ women leading spirits of France, attended the celebration of the Fourth of July in Paris out of gener- ons courtesy with no heart for festiv- ity.

The mere sight of our men—of their vigor, of the con- fidence that showed itself ‘in every movement of their stalwart figures and every turn of their swinging march, in their steady comprehending eyes and easy discipline, in the indomitable air tnat added spirit to everything they did made everyone who saw them that memorable day realize that something had happened that was much more than a mere incident in the fighting, semething very different from the mere arrival of fresh troops. A great moral force had flung itself into the struggle. They carried the great ideals of a free people at their hearts and with vision were unconquerable, Their very pi ence brought reassurance; their fight- ing made victory certain. They were recognized .as crusaders ‘and as their thousands swelled to millions their strength was seen to mean salvation. And they were fit men to carry such a hope and make good the assurance it forecasts. Finer men never went into battle; and their officers were worthy of them, This is not the occasion upon. which to utter a eulogy of the armies America sent: to France, but perhaps since I am speaking of their mission I may speak also of the pride I shared with every American who saw or dealt with them there. They were the sort of men America would wish to be rep- resented by the sort of men every American would wish to claim as fel- a great cause, They were terrible in tattle and gentle and helpful out of it, remembering the mothers and the sis- ters, the wives and the liftle children at home. They were free men under arms not forgetting their ideals of duty in the midst of tasks of violence. I am proud to have had the privilege of be- ing associated with them and of cal- ling myself their leader.
