"The 1'nltnd Slates eulojed tho Hplrlluul leadership of the world until the senate of thn I lilted Slates failed to rnllfv Iho treaty by which the belligerent nUtlonii sought to effect the scltleitieiilis for which ihey had fought throughout the war. It h Itiron celviible that at this supreme crisis nnd final turning point In the In ternational relations of the whole world, when iho results of the Hi out wnr nro by no niean deter mined nnd nro still ipiestlonablo and dependent upon events which no man onn foresio or count upon, Hie United Hiatus should withdraw from the cuncert ot progressive nml enlightened nations by which (lerinnny wus defeated and all rdmllar governments (If the world be so unhappy ns to contain any) warned of the certain ronse q uc non of liny attempt of a like Initially, and yet iliut Is tho effect of the, coiiiho tho senate of tho United Hbiles has taken with re gard lo Ihe Ireuly of ermillles.

This nation entered tho great war lo vindicate Its own right and to protect and preserve free government. It went Into the war to see It through lo Iho end, and tho end has not yet come It wont Into Che war to make an end of militarism, lo furnish guaran tees In weak nations it ml lo make a Just and loatlng peace It en tered It with noble enthusiasm. Five of the lending belligerents havo nccepted the treaty anil for mal ratifications will soon be ex changed The question Is whether this country will enter and enter wiiote-henrtedly. If It does not do so. the United Hlates and (lermany will play a lone hand In thn world. Thn miiliiteiinnco of the peace of the world nnd thn effective execu tion of the treaty depend upon thn whnlnhenrtod participation of the United Htales. I am not stating It ns a matter of power. 'The point Is that the Unlled Htales Is tho only nation which has sufficient moral force vvllh the rest of Ihe world to giiaranteo tho substitu tion of discussion for war.
