Later In the summer of 1917 came the
peace overtures of . the pope. - In his re
ply to them on August 27, President Wil
son : summed ' up Jn masterful fashion
the war aims and peace procram ot the
united fiutes He said :
SThe Amerleas .. people believe -that

r-'The .putposet of the United States
in this war are known .to the whole
world, to every; people to. . 'whom the
truth has been .permitted to "come. They
do not need to be stated again, l We
seek no material advantage of any kind.
I We believe that 4he Intolerable wrongs)
done in this war by the ' furious ' and
brutal ' sower ' of the imperial. German
government- ought to- be: repaired,' but
-I not at the- expense ofthe sovereignty

the sovereignty hoth. of those that: are
weak and of those that are strong.
The test, therefore,- of every plsn'ofl
peace is thts u Is It based upon the rintn
of all the peoples Involved, or merely
upon the word of an ambitious ana in
trirums ; government on - the one., hand
and. of a group et free peoples on the

test which must be APPjied." - '
:z ,1 1 Concerning Geraasy'e Allies
Up topecember last the. United) States
Vas at "War with -Germany alone, -no
declaration having been made against
her allies. The "president's attitude on
this situation.- as expressed In his mes
sage to congress December 4 last. Is. ot
special interest,- in view of the develop
ments of the past., few days.
--H said 1 "One very embarrassing ob
stacle that stands In ourjway is that
we are at war with' Germany but not
with her allies. I therefore very earn
estly recommend that the congress im-
mediately-.declare the United States in a
stats of war with .Austria Hungary.
The g6vemment. of Austria-Hungary Is
not acting upon Its own Initiative or ta
response to the wishes and 'feelings of
Its own peoples, but as the Instrument
of another' nation... We must meet "its
force -with our own and regard the cen
tral powers aa but one. The war can
be, successfully conducted In. no other
way. r The same logic would lead also to
a-declaraUon of war against Turkey and
Bulgaria. ?,They also, are the tools of
Germany and do no yet 'stand in the
direct-path of our .necessary action. We
shall go wherever the necessities-, of this
war carry us. but it seems to, me that
we should go only where immediate and
practical- considerations lead us, and not
need any others.;.
