Washington.— "Public and solemn” engagement among the great powers not to violate or to permit the viola tion of the territorial integrity of Rus sia is regarded by President Wilson as the sine qua non of an attempt at the pacification of Armenia and other states bordering on the former em pire. His views are given in a note- transmitted to Paul Hymans, prtsl dent of the league of nations assembly, by Acting Secretary of State Davis. “ The "distressful situation” of Ar menia, Invaded by both the Turkish nationalists and soviets is only one de tail of the Russian problem, the presi dent said, and he urged his conviction that it is only by a gem ral and com prehensive treatment of the problem, "only by full co-operation of the prin cipal powers,” that a hopeful approach to the pacification and independence of Armenia can be found. The president said he has never be lieved that the problems raised by the bolshevik! coup could be solved by outside military actions, and he ex pressed the hope that the tragical events on the Polish front and in the Crimea have convinced the world that armed invasion 13 not the way to bring peace to Russia. The president suggested a "public and solemn" declaration among the powers to refrain from extending such aid to the nations bordering on Russia, declaring that in this way responsibil ity for any new war on the Russian border would be “ clearly placed."
