Integrity of Ex-Czar's Empire
Should Not Be Violated,
S a y s President.
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

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

to the pacification and independence
of Armenia can be found.
The president said he has never be

events on the Polish front and in the
Crimea have convinced the world that

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."
