that 8tateHine.il or n"*etublicH can do in
to emiy them out or he fnlsy to them.
They were perhaps not clear at the out'
sot; Init llicy a i !?"* clear now. The war
has lasted more than four yearn ami
llii' whole world ha# been drawn into
it. The common will of muiikimi haw
hfreu subst I tutted t'? ? r the particular pur
pose.*. of individual states. Individual
statesmen may have started the conflict
but neither they nor their oppo.lHiUtH
run stop it if* they please. It has be
come a people's war. and peoples of
all sorts and races, of every degree of
power ami variety of fortune, are in
volved in its sweeping processes of
change and settlement. We come into
it when its character had become fully
defined and it was plain that no nation
could stand apart or be indifferent to
its outcome. Its challenge drove to the
heart of everything we cared for and
lived for. Our brothers from many lands
as well as our own murdered dead un
der tlie sea. were calling to us, and we
responded, fiercely .and of course.
"The air -was vicar about us. We
saw thing* in their full, convincing
-f?r?ipiiitlon?"ir?r"TtIe>' were; and we have
seen them with steady eyes ami un
changing comprehension ever since." We
accepted the issues of the war as facts,
not as Ally group c'f men cither here
or elsewhere bad defined them, and we
can accept no outcome which does not
s?|uarol,v meet and settle them. Those
issues are t bene :
"Shall the military |M?wer of any na
tion or group, of iintb iiH be suffered ' to
determine tin* fortunes of peoples over
whom they have no right to rule except
the right of force?
"Shall strong nations be free to wrong
weak nations and make them subject
to their purpose and interest?
"Shall people* be ruled and dominated,
even in their own interna) affair#, by
arbitrary and irresponsible force or by
their own will and choice?
"Shall then* In' a common standard
of right ami privilege for all peoples
and nations or shall the strong do as
they will and the weak suffer without
redress?
"Shall the assertion of righcfH' hap
hazard anil by casual alliance or aha 11
there b?' ?? common concert to oblige
the observance of. common rights?
"No man, no group of men, chose
these to be tin* issues- of the struggle.
They are the issues of it; and they must
be sot t led? b.v mo arrangement or com
promise or adjustment of interests, but
definitely ami once for- all and with a

in part upon the word' of putlaws ami
only upon that word. For Germany
will have to redeem her character iuai l>\
what happens af the peace table but by
what follows. ^
"And, as I see it, tin* constitution of

definition Of its ohjy<?ts must be a part,
is iu a sense the most essentia] part, of
the peace settlemeilt itself, It cannot
be (or mod now. If farmed now, it would
be merely h new aliinnre conttnert to the
nations associated against a common en
emy,
"It is not .likely that it could be
formed after the settlement. It is ne
cessary to. guarantee the peace; and the
peace cjiniunt be guaranteed as an after
thought. The i-eiiHon, to speak in plain
terms again, why it must be guaranteed,
is that there will be parties to the peace
whose promise* Imve proved untrust
worthy, and means must he found in con
nection with the peace settlement itself
to renicvi that couive of Insecurity. It
would bjnftdly to leave the guarantee to
the subsequent voluntary action of the
governments we have seen destroy llus
sia and deceive Rumania.
"Hut these general terms do not dis
close the whole (natter. Home details
ore needed to make them sound less like
a thesis and more like a practical pro
gram. These, theu, are some of the par*
tlculars, and 1 state them with the great
er confidence because I can Ktate them
authoritatively as representing this gov
ernment's interpretation of Its own duty
with regard to peace :
"First, the impartial justice meted
out must involve no discrimination be
tween those to whom we w.ish lo be just
and those to whom we do not wish to be
just. It must be a justice that plays no
favorites and know*, no standard but the
equal rights of the several people* eon
corned.
"iSecOud, no special or separate inter
est of any single nation or an.v group
of nations ca be mnmle the basis of any
part of the settlement which is not .^in
sistent with the common interests of 'all.
"Third, there can be no leagues or al
liances or special" covenants and under
standings with the general aud common
family of the league, of nations.
"Fourth, and more specifically, there
can be m ? special, H'lfish economic cpm
Hnntions within the league and no em
ployment of any form of economic boy
cott or exclusion except as the power
< f economic penalty' by exclusion from
the markets of the world may he vested
in the league of nations itself us n mean's
of discipline and control.
I' if till, all iutcrnatiional agreement's
and treaties of every kind must be made
known, in their entirety, to the rest of
the world.
