C., Dec. 18, 1916. The president directs me to send ou the following communication to be- presented immediately to the min- ister of foreign affairs of the gov- ernment to which you are accredited: (The second paragraph of the note is the same in each copy, as follows:) The president of the United States has instructed me to suggest to the (here is inserted a designation of the s 80overnment a’ddressed) a course of action with regard to the present war, which he hopes that the government will take under consideration as sug- gested in the most friendly spirit, and as coming not only from a friend but also as coming from the representa- tive of a neutral nation whose inter- 4 jests have been most scriously affected by the war and whose concern for its early conclusion arises out of a mani- fest necessity to determine how best to safeguard those interests if the war is to continue, (The third paragraph of the note as sent to the four Central Powers—Ger- many, Austria-Hungary, Turkey and Bulgaria—is as follows:) The suggestion which I am instruct- to make the president has long had it in mind to offer. He is some- what embarrassed to offer it at this particular time, because it may now seem to have been prompted by a desire to play a part in connectlon with the recent overtures of the Cen- tral Powe It has, in fact, been in uggested by them in its origin, and the president would have delayed offering it until these over- tures had been independently an- swered but for the fact that it also con- cerns the question of peace and may best be considered in connection with other proposals which have the same The president can only beg that his suggestion be considered entirely on its own merits and as if it had been made in other circum- stances.

He is somewhat embarrassed to dffer it at this particular time, because it may now seem to have been prompted by the recent overtures of the Central Powers. It is, in fact, in no way as- sociated with them in its orlgin, and the president would have delayed of. fering it until those overtures had been answered but for the fact that it also concerns the question of peace and may best be considered in con- nection with other proposals which have the same end In view., The The suggestion son, which | the | president can only beg that his sug- gestion be considered entirely on its other rcumstances.

Each would be jealous of the formation of more trival leagues to preserve an uncertain balance of power amid multiplying suspicions; but each is ready to consider the formation of a league of nations to ‘insure peace and stice throughout the world. that final step can be taken, however, each deems it necessary first to set- tle the issues of the present war upon terms which will certainly safeguard independence, the territorial in- cial freedom of the nations involved. In the measures to be taken to se- cure the future peace of the world the people and government of the Unitod States are as vitally and as interested the governments now at war. Their interest, moreover, in the means to be adopted to relieve the smaller and weaker peoples of the world of the peril of wrong and vio- lence is as quick and ardent as that of any other people or government. They stand ready, and even eager, to co-operate in the accomplishment of | when the war is over, every influence and resource at their command. But the war must first concluded. The terms upon which it 1s ta be concluded they are not at liberty to sugge: but the president does feel that it is his right and his duty to point out their inti- mate interest in its conclusion, lest it should presently be too late to accom- plish the greater things which lie be- yond its conclusion, lest the situation of neutral nations, now exceedingly hard to endure, be rendered alto- gether intolerable, and lest, more than with Before | directly | jand of the willing concert of all, an injury be done civilization it- self which can never be atoned for or repaired. The president therefore feels alto- gether justified in suggesting an im- mediate opportunity for a comparison of views as to the terms which must precede those ultimate arrangements for the peace of the world, which all desire and in which the neutral na- tions as well as those at war are ready to play their full responsible part. It the contest must continue to proceed { toward undefined ends by slow attri- tion until the one group of belliger- ents or the other exhausted; if million after million of human lives must continue to be offered up until on the one side or the other there are no more to offer be kindled that can never cool and spairs engendered from which there an be no recovery, hopes of peace free and is peoples will be rendered idle. The life of the entire been profoundly affected. Every part of the great family of mankind has felt the burden and terror of this un- precedented contest of arms. No na~ tion in the civilized world can be said in truth to stand outside its influence or to be safe against its disturbing effects. And yet the concrete objects for which it is being waged have nev- er been definitively stated. The leaders of the several belliger- ents have, as has been said, stated those bbjects in general terms. But, state@ in general terms, they seem the same on boti sides. Never yet have the authoritative spoiesmen of either side avowed the precise objects which would, if attained, satisfy them and their people that the war had been fought out. The world has been left vain world has if resentments must able. The president is not proposing peace; he is not even offering medla- tion. He is merely proposing that soundings be taken in order that we may learn, the neutral nations with the belligerent, how near the haven of peace may be for which all mankind longs with an intense and increasing longing. He believes that the spirit in which he speaks and the objects which he seeks will be understood by all concerned, and he confidently hopes for a response which will bring a new light into the affairs of the world.
