And when the president declares that the American peo- ple cannot or will not consent to peace save one based on all of his 14 points, maybe he is mistaken, for the reason that the American people did not enter the war knowing anything about his 14 points and even now understand them so far as their application and operation go. American sentiment put America into the war in April, 1917, be- cause Hun submarines were shooting. up our commerce, because of the brutal outrages upon Belgium and France, because of Hun diplomatic outrages upon America, because it was seen that the brutal Hun was after bossism of the world. These were points which the whole common and uncommon body of Americans could feel in their hearts and could understand without one word of explanation. fitient and the aim wholly unselfish and justifiable. “Put Germany permanently out of the war business and make the world a decent place in which to live’—that was our war cry, that our purpose clearly and needing no explanation in April, 1917, and America was solidly for it. But on January 8, 1918, President Wilson addressed congress pre- senting his fourteen points, ‘a glorious vision of earthly heaven—a heaven surely to be aspired to, yearned for, and fought for, but like every other heaven, lacking in interesting details and almighty difficult to be at- tained so long as human nature is human nature, nation is nation, and business is business. Cannot, or will not, America surrender part of the fourteen points and consent to peace? Has not President Wilson himself done some sur- rendering along that line?

ROME, April 29—(9 2. m)— Thousands of citizens stormed the parliament buildings today to hear Premier Orlando's speech outlining the government's pol- ley and laying Italy's peace pro- gram before the people. “Open covenants of peace openly arrived at.” This point is already broken off by the Paris conference, which Mr. Wil- son is said to dominate.
