AFIER VICTORY

It Is believed that Ciernln would go
much further If It were not for tbe
embarrassment of tbe Austrian alli
ances with and dependency on Ger
many. Wilson said the teat aa to
whether It was possible for the bellig
erents to go on comparing views wss
stasis, and that the following prln
clplee must be applied:' First, each
part ot the nasi settlement must be
based on essential Justice to bring
permanent peace; second, tbe peoples
and provinces are not to be bartered
axowad like chattels to establish the
balance of power; third, territorial
settlement must be for the benefit of
the peeple concerned, and not merely
for the sake of adjustment. Rival
claims and well detned national aspir
ations must be accorded satisfaction.
These principles have boon accepted,
be said, by every one except the mill
tary autocrats of Germany.
