war could now be brought to an end
before our Nation was involved. Two
statements issued to the press by our
Secretary of State, upon the day the
,. . , .
note was dispatched, threw a; clear
light on the seriousness with which
our Government viewed the Tisis.
From this point, events moved rap-
idly. The powers of the Entente re-
died to the German peace note.- Neu-
tral nations took action on the note
of the President, and from both bel-
liferents replies to this note were
soon in our hands.
The German reply was evasive in
accord with their traditional prefer-
once for . diplomacy behind . closed
doors. ' Refusing to state to the world
their terms. Germany and her allies
merely proposed a conference. They
adiourned all discussion of any plan
for a leaeue Until after hostilities
should end.
file response of the Entente Pow-
ers was frank and in harmony with
our principal purpose., Many ques-
tions raised, in the. statement of their
aims were so purely European, in
character as to have small interest
us. Dut our great concern in Eu-
0f hostilities the German Gov-
ernment had cmimed that it was
fighting a war of defense. 'Jut tne
tone of its recent proposals had been
that of a conqueror. It sought a
peace based on victory. The central
empjres aspired to extend their aom-
. n(.in OTOP other ,.aees. They were
LHng to make liberal terms to any
one of thcrr enemies, in a separate among me nations u. gi cui. jcjiuuui

crush other opponents. But they continue here and there to be built
were not willing to accept any peace up and maintained."
which did not, ajl fronts considered, "Mere agreements may not make
leave them victors and the dominat- peace secure. It will be absolutely
ing imperial power of Europe. The necessary that a force be created aa
war aims of the Entente showed a de- a guarantor of the permanency of the
termination to thwart this ambition settlement so much greater than the
of' the Imperial German Government,
Against the German Peace to further
German o-rowth and aeeression the
Entente Powers offered a plan tor a
European Peace that should make
the whole continent secure.
At this iuncture the President Toad
his address to the Senate, on Janu-
vru 9.!1917 in which he outlined the
kind of peace the United States of
America could join in guaranteeing.
His words were addressed not only to
the Senate and this Nation but to
people of all countries.
"May I not add that il nope ana De-
lieve that I am in effect speaking for
liberals and friends of humanity in
every nation and of every program of
liberty? I would fain believe that I
am speaking for ,t'nc silent mass of
mankind everywhere who have as yet
had no place or opportunity to speak
their real hearts out concerning tne
death and ruin they see to have come
already upon the persons and the
homes they hold most dear."
Thn address was a rebuke to those
vchn still rherished dreams of a world
dominated bv one nation. For the!
no., ho nut-lined was not that of a
vtvrinns omneror. it was not the
peace of Caesar. It was in behalf of
all
the world, and it was a reace

"No peace can last, or ought
last, which does not recognize and
accept the principle that governments
derive all their j'ust powers from the
consent of the governed, and that no
right anywhere exists to hand people

i If there were any doubt in our
minds as to which of the great nl
liances was the more in sympathy
with these ideals, it was removed by
the popular response abroad to this
address of the President. For while
exception was takon to some pavU of
lit in Britain and France, it was plain
that so far as the peoples of tha hn-
tente were concerned the I'resiocnt
had been amply justified in stilting
that he spoke for all forward inoK
incr. liberal-minded men and women.
It was not so in Germany. The peo
nle there who could be reached, nnd
whose hearts were stirred by tliis
enunciation of the principles of
itoeonle's peace, were too few or too
. oppressed to make their voicc3 heard
! in the councils of thpir nalion. Al
ready, on January 19. 1917, unknown
to the people of Germany, Herr Zim
merman, their Secretary of Foreign
I Affairs, had secretly dispatched a note

to repudiate the Sussex pledge and in
structing him to offer to the Mexican
Government New Mexico and Amon
