ISOii'S PRESENCE
HELD ESSENTIAL
Britain's Greatest Publisher
Gives Europe's View.
t,ONDOV. Nov. 3(1. In view of the
widespread discussion regarding Wil
son's decision to attend the peace con
ference. the t'nlted Press asked Lord
Northcllffe. Britain's greatest publish
er, for a statement of the European at.
tltude toward the president's person
al participation In peace deliberations.
espondlng, Northcllffe said: "For
eigners hove no right to participate
In other countries' policies. ,. That
merlca's president attend, the con
ference has always been regarded here
l matter of policies but as an es
sential fuctor In the sitnntlon. Jt
would be unthinkable for us. -for ex-
mple, that Lloyd tteorge should not
be at (the conference- I am not In a
position to speak for France, but 1
cannot conceive It posRlblo that the
conference be held without Premier
Clemenceau. It la apparently evident
from cables we are now getting that
many Americans object to the presi
dent's voyage. I can only say we
cannot understand that situation. The
L'nited States has played a great part
In the war. The Germans consistent
ly addressed the president. , As a for
Igner I can. express no view of Am--rican
policies. But I may. ne allowed
to say. as an expression' of personal
opinion .that If these conferences are
held without the president the whole
European world would think there was
something very wrong indeed, with
those, conference.'
