PRESIDENT WILSON DEFIES HOSE WHO
WILD OPPOSE A LEAGUE OF SULK
Proudest Thing to Report is That This Great Country is Trust
ed Throughout the World.—No Nation Distrusts the
Purpose of the United States.
THE WORLD WAR WAS WOK BT THE INSPIRATION OF IDEALS
Critics Invited to Test the Sentiments of the American Nation:
"We Set Out to Make Men Free, and Now We Will Make
Them Free, and Them in Their Freedom."
I Mechanics Hall, Boston, Feb. H.—
The text of President Wilson's ad
dress here is as follows!'
Governor Mr. Mayor,
Fellow Citizens: i wonder if you are
half as glad to see. qie as. 1 am to see
you. It warms my heart to see a
great body of my fellow citizen*
again, because in some respects dur
ing the recent months I have been
very lonely Indeed without your com
radeship and counsel, and I tried at
eytry step of the work which fell to
me to recall what I was sure wquld
be your counsel with regard to the
great matters which were under con
sideration,
r Ido not you to think that I
hare not been appreciative of tHe ex
traordinary reception which was glv
, en to me on the other side, in saying
that it makes me very happy to get
home again. I do not mean to say
that I was not very deeply touched
by the cries that came from the great
crowds on the other side. But I want
to say to you in all honesty that I
felt them to be a call of greeting to
you rather than to me.
I I did not feel that the greeting was
' personal. I had In my heart the
over-crowning pride, of being your
representative and of receiving the
plandlts of men everywhere who felt
that your hearts beat with theirs in
those great crowds. It was not a tone
of mere greeting; it was not a tone of
mere generous welcome; It wis the
calling of comrade to comrade, the
cries that come from men who say,
"We have waited, {or this day when
the friends of liberty should come
across the sea aud shake hands with
us, to see that a new world was con
structed upon a new basis and a
foundation of justice and right."
I Inspired by Crowd's Voices.
| I can't tell you the inspiration that
came from the sentiments that come
out of those simple voices of the
crowd. And the proudest thing I have
to report to yqu is that this great
country of ours is trusted throughout
, the world.
! I have not come to report the pro
' ceedlngs or the results of the pro
ceedings of the peace conference;-
that would be premature. I can say
that I have received very happy im
pressions from this conference ;the
. impression that while there are many
I differences of judgment, while there
are some divergences of object, there
Is nevertheless a common spirit ind
a common realization of the necessity
of setting up new standards of right
In the world.
Because the men who are in con
ference in Paris realize as keenly as
any American can realize that they
. are not the masters of their people;
, that they are the servants of their
people, and that the spirit of their
people has awakened to a new pur
| pose and a new conception of their
I power to realize that purpose, anil
that no man dare go home from that
conference and report anything less
noble than was expected of it.
Why Conference "Goes Slowly."
| The conference seems to you to go
•lowly; from day to day In Paris II
■eems to go slowly; but I wonder If
jrou realize the complexity of the task
which it has undertaken. It seem*
as if the settlements of this war af
fect, and affect directly, every great,
and I sometimes think every small,
nation In the world, and no one de
cision can prudently be made which
Is not properly linked with the great
series of other decisions which must
accompany it. Anti it mdst be reck
oned in with the flnal result if the
real quality and character of that re
mit is to be properly Judged.
What we are doing Is to hear the
J whole case; hear it from the mouths
! of the men most Interested; hear U
i from those who are officially commis
sioned to state it; hear the rival
claims ; hear the claims that affect
new nationalities, that affect new
areas of the world, that affect new
commercial and economic connections
that have been established by the
great world w»r through which we
have gone. And I have been struck
■by the moderateness of those who
have represented national claims. I
can testify that I have nowhere seen
the gleam of passion. I have seen
earnestness, I have seen tears come
to the eyes of men who pleaded for
iown-troaden people whom they were
privileged to speak for; but they were
sot the tears of anguish; they were
the tear* of or dan t hope.
I And 1 don't see how any man can
tall to have been subdued by these
pleas, subdued to the feeling that
lie was not there to assert an Indi
vidual Judgment of his own. but to !
I try to assist the cause of humanity,
All Look to America.
I And 'a the midst of It all. everv .

it reaches Paris, the repress tatlya*

of the United States. Why? Because
—and 1 think I am stating the most
wonderful fact In history—because
there is no nation in Europe that
suspects the motives of the United
States.-
Was there ever so wonderful a
thing seen before? Was there ever
so moving a thing? Was there ever
any fact that so bound the nation
that had won that esteem forever to
deserve it?
I would not have you understand
that the great men who represent the
other nations there in conference are
dlseateemed by those who know them.
Quit the contrary. But you under
stand that the nations of Europe have
again and again clashed with one an
other in competitive interest. It is
impossible for men to forget those
sharp issues that were drav/n between
them In times past. It is Impossible
for men to believe that all ambitions
have all of a sudden been foregone.
They remember territory that was
coveted; they remember rights that
it was attempted to extort; they re
member political ambitions which It
was attempted to realize—and while
they believe that men have come Into
a different temper, they cannot for
get these things, and so they do not
resort to one another for a dispas
sionate view of the matters in con
troversy. They resort li that nation
which has won the envlablo distinc
tion of being regarded p.i the friend
of mankind.
Whenever H Is desired to send a
small force of soldiers to occupy a
piece of territory where It la thought
nobody else will be we'rome, they
ask for American And
where other soldiers would be looked
upon with suspicion, and perhaps
meet wtih resistance, the American
soldier Is welcomed with acclaim.
Many Ground* for Prld*.
I have had so many grounds for
pride on the other side of the water
that I am very thankful that they
are not grounds for personal pride.
I'd be the most stuck-up man in the
world. And it has been an infinite
pleasure to me to see those gallant
soldiers of ours, of whom the con
stitution of the United States mads
mo the proud commander. Yon may
be proud of the Twenty-sixth division,
but I commanded the Twenty-sixth
division, and see what they did
under my direction, and everybody
praise* the American soldier with the
feeling that In praidng him he I* sub
tracting from the credit of no one
else.
I have been searching for the fun
damental fact that converted Europe
to believe In U3. Before this war Eu
rope did not believe in us as she doe*
now. She did not believe In us
throughout the first throe years of
the war She seems really to have
believed that we were holding off bo
cause we thought we could make more
by staying out than by going in. And
all of a sudden, in a rhort J 8 monthi,
the whole verdict Is reversed. There
can be but one explanation for It.
Thoy saw what we did—that wtlhout
making a single claim we put ail our
men and all our m»ans at the dis
posal of those who wore fighting for
their homes, In the first Instance, but
for a cause, the cau-e of human
rights and Justice, and that we went
In, not to support their national
claims, but to ausoort the great caul*
which they held In common.
And when they saw that America
not or.ly held idea'?, but acted Ideals,
tbey were converted to America and
became firm partis ins of those ideals.
Met Greek Scholar*.
I met a group of scholars when I
was in Paris—som* gentlemen from
one of the Givek universities who had
come to see. and In whose presence, or
rather In the presence of those tradi
tions (A learning. I fait very young
indeed.
I told them that I had one of the
delightful revenge i that s->metlties
comes to a man. /!! my life I had
heard men sneak wll'i a sort of con
descension of Ideal' :>rd of Moalists,
and particularly those separated, en
cloistered horizons they
to term academic, who we-c In the
Jiablt of uttering Ideals In the fr?e
atmosphere when the/ clash w th no
body In partclular.
And I said I have had thl  swet
revenge. Speaking with p.-rrf.-rt
frankness, In the name of the people
of the United States, I have uttered
ss the objects of this qre.-t wsr Ideals,
and nothing but Ideals, end the war
has been won by that insp'ratlon.
Men were fighting cri'h tens? rn.u icle
and lowered head until t'ler rame to
realize those things, feeling they
were fighting for t!i?ir live* and their
ccuntry, f.nd when these accen's of
what it was all »but reichd thera
tror\. America they lifted their heads,
they raised their eraj to I eavea.
when they saw men in khaki coming
across the sea In the spirit of crusad
ers, and they found that theae were
Strang* men. reckless of danger not
only, but reck leas because tbey seem
ed to see something, that made that
danger worth while. Men have tes
tified to me in Europe that our men
were possessed by something that
they could only call a religious fer
vor. They were not like any of the
other soldiers. They had a vision,
they had a dream, and. fighting in the
dream .they turned the wttple tide of
battle and it sever came back.
GRAHAM, N. C., THURSDAY. FEBRUARY 27, 1919
Tribute of a Humorist.
One of our American humorists
meeting the criticism that American
soldiers were not trained long enough,
said:
"K takes only half as long to train
an American soldier as any other, be
cause you only have to train him ons
war, and he did only go one way,
and he never came back until he could
do it when he pleased."
And now do you realise that this
confidence we have established
throughout the world Imposes a bur
den upon us—lf you choose to call
It a burden. It Is one of those bur
dens which any nation onght to be
proud to carry. Any man who resists
the present tides that run In the
world will find himself thrown upon
a shore so high and barren that It
will aeem as if he had been aeparated
from his humsn kind forever.
The Europe that I left the other
day was full of something that It had
never felt fill Its heart so full before.
It was full of hope. The Europe ol
th esecond year of the war. the Eu
rope of the third year of the. war, was
sinking to a sort of stubborn deeper
atlon. They did not see any grssl
thing to be achieved even when the
war should be won. They hoped
there would be some salvage; they
hoped that they could clear their ter
ritorlee of Invading armies; thej
hoped they could set np their homei
and start their Industries afresh. Bui
they thought K would simply be thi
resumption of the old life that En
rope had—led In fear, led In anxiety
led In constant suspicious watchful
nees. never dreamed that H
would be a Europe of settled peaci
and of Juattfled hope.
All Peoplea Buoyed Up.
And now these Ideals have wrought
(Jhis new magic, that all the peoples
of Europe are buoyed up and confl
dent In the spirit of hope, because
they believe that ws are «t the ev«
of a new age in the world when na
ttons win undrstand one another,
when nations will support one anoth
er In every Just cause, when natloni
will unite every moral and every phy
, slcal strength to see that the right
'-ball prevail.
If America were at this Juncture to
fall the world, what would come of
It? I do not mean any disrespect to
any other great people when I say
that America Is the hope of the world,
and if she does not justify that hope
the results are unthinkable. Men will
be thrown back upon the bitterness
of disappointment not only, but the
bitterness of despair. All nations
will be set up as hostile camps again;
the men at the peace conference will
go home with their heads upon their
breasts, knowing thst they have fail
ed—for they were bidden not to come
home from there until they did some
thing more than sign a treaty of
peace.
Suppoie we sign tbe treaty of peace
and that it ICthe most *atl*factory
treaty of peace that the confuting ele
ments of the modern world will af
ford and go home and think about our
labors; we will know that we have
left written upon the historic table at
Versailles, upon which Vergenea* and
Benjamin Franklin wrote their names,
nothing but a modern *crap of paper.
No nation* united to defend, no great
forces combined to make it good, no
assurance given to tbe downtrodden
and fearful people of the world that
they shall be aafe. Any man who
think* that America will take part
in giving the world any »uch rebuff
and disappointment aa that does not
know America.
Challenge to Critic*.
| I Invite him to test the aentiment)
of the nation. We set this up to make
men free, and we did not confine our
conception and purpose to America,
and now we will make men free. If
we did not do that, the fame of Amer
ica would be gone and all her powers
would be dissipated. Rbe then would
have to keep her power for those nar
row, selfish, provincial purposea which
seem so dear to some minds that have
no aweep beyond the neareat horizon.
I should welcome no sweeter chal
lenge than that. I have fighting blood
In me and it Is sometime* a delight
to let it have scope, but If It 1* a
challenge on thi* occasion It will be
an indulgence. Think of the picture,
think of the utter blackness that
would fall on the world—America has
failed. America made a little euay
at generosity snd then withdrew*
America said: ,f We are your friends."
but it was only for today, not for to
morrow. America said: "Here is our
power to vindicate right" and then
the next day said: "Let right take
rare of itaelf and ws will Uke ear*
of ouraelvea." America said: "We set
up a light to lead men along the patha
of liberty but we have lowered It. It la
Intended only to light our own path."
We set up a great deal of liberty,
and then we said : "Liberty Is a thing
that you must win for yoqrself, do not
call upon ua." And tbink of the
world that wo would leave. Do you
realize how many new nations are go
ing to be set up in the presence of old
and powerful nation* In Europe and
left tbore, If left by u*. without a dis
interested friend?
What of ths Helpless?
Do you believe In th* Polish muse.
as I do? Are yos going to set sp Po
land, immature. Inexperienced, as yet
unorganised, snd leave her with s
circle of armies arottnd her? Do yon
believe la tbe aspiration at the
Czecho-Slovaka snd tbe Jugo-Slavs aa
I do? Do yoc know bow many pow
ers would be qnick to pounce npon
them If there wer* not the guarantees
of the world behind their liberty?
Have you thought of the (Offering
of Armenia? Too ponred out your
money to help succor the Armenian*
after they suffered: now *et your
strength so thst they shsll never sof
ter sgaln.
The arrangement* of (he present
peace cannot stand a generation un
let* they are guaranteed by the unit
ed force* of the civilized world. And
If we do not guarantee them, cannot
you aee the picture? Your heart*
have Instructed you where the bur
den of thl* war fell. It did not fall
upon the national treasuries, It did
not fall upon the Instrument* of ad
mlniatratlon. It did not fall upon the
resources of the nation*. It fell upon
the victims' home* everywhere,

where women were tolling in hope
that their men would come back. '
No Doubt of VerdlctT
When 1 think of the homes upoa
which dull despair would settle where
this great hope is diaappolnted, I
should wish for my part never to have
had America play any part whatever
In this attempt to emancipate the
world. But 1 talk as If there were
any questions. I have no more doubt
of the verdict of America In this mat
ter than I have of the blood that Is In
me.
And so, my fellow citizens, 1 have
come back to report pronre** and I
do not believe the progress Is going
to stop short of the goal. The nations
of the world have set their heads now
to do a great thing, and they are not
going to .slacken their purpose. And
when I speak of the nations of the
world, I do not speak of the govern*
ments of the world. I speak of the
peoples who constitute the nations of
the world. They are In the saddle and
they are going to see to It that if their
present govern meats do not do their
will, some other governments shall.
And the secret Is out and the present
governments know it
There is a great deal of harmony
to be got out of common knowledge.
There is a great deal of sympathy to
be got out of living in the same at
mosphere, and except for the differ
ences of languages, which puzzled my
American ear very sadly, I could have
believed I was at home In France or
in Italy or in England when I was on
the streets, when I was In the pres
ence of the crowds, whec I was In
great halls where men were gathered
together, irrespective of olasa. I did
not feel quite as much at home as I
do here, but I felt that now. at any
rate, after this storm of war had
cleared the air, men were seeing eye
to eye everywhere and theso were the
kind of folks who would understand
what the kind of folks at home would
understand and that they were think
ing the same things.
Manners Vary Delightful.
I feel about you as I am reminded
of a story of that excellent witness
and good artist, Oliver Herford, who
one day, sitting at luncheon at his
club, was slapped vigorously on the
back by a man whom he did not know
very well. He said: "Oliver, old boy,
how are you?" He looked at him
rather coldly. He said: "I don't
knepr your name, I don't know your
face, but your manners are very fa
miliar," and I must say that your
manners are very familiar, and let
me add very delightful.
It'ls a great comfort for one thing,
to realize that you all understand the
language I am speaking. A friend of
mine said that to talk through an In
terpreter was like witnessing the com
pound fracture of an Idea. But the
beauty of It Is that, whatever the Im
pediments of the channel of commun
ication, the idea is the same; that
It gets registered, and it gets regis
tered in responsive hearts and recep
tive purposes,
1 have come back for a strenuons
attempt to transact business for a lit
tle while In America. but I have real
ly come back to ssy to you, In sll
soberness and honesty, thst I hsvs
bssn trying my best to apeak your
thoughts.
When I sample myself. I think I
find that I am a typical American,
and if I sample deep enough, and get
down to what Is probably the true
stuff of a man, then I have hope that
It Is part of the stuff that Is like ths
other fellow'* at home.
And, therefore, probing deep In my
heart and trying to see the things
tiia't are right without regard to the
things that may be debated as expedi
ent. I feel thst I am Interpreting ths
purpoM and th* thought of Amsrlca;
and in loving America I find I have
joined the great majority of my fal
lowmen throughout the world

VITALLY AFFECTS
PEACE QUESTION
ARMISTICE NEGOTIATIONS BY
NO MEANS SETTLED BY THE
MEETING AT TREVES.
FRESH MOMENTS OF CRISIS
Allies Compelled Suspension of Hos
tilities by Germany Against the
Llttls States In Esst.
Paris.—The armistice negotiations
vitally affect the whole question of
peace with Germany and thoae nego
tiations are not by any means ended
by the last meeting of Marshal Foch
with the Oermans at Treves. All that
has been done is to prolong the ex
isting terms of the armistice, to call
upon the enemy to exesutn without
delay the condltlona laljp down In
three previous conventions and to en
join upon him complete cessation of
operations against the Poles.
The chief conditions which the en
emy haa not yet put Into effect refer
to the immediate handing over of
stolen bonds, railway rolling stock,
submarines and facilities to be given
allied agents to control German
wealth deposited abroad as well as to
working the Oerman merchant marine
under allied control for supply pur
poses. The Germans did their ut
most In the way of protest against
the prolongation when they were call
ed upon, but there could be ho other
course of action open to the allies
than to force Oermany to suspend
hostilities against the states to the
east who have thrown In their lot
with the allies. Already the allies are
supplying food to the enemy and their
general attitude Is In striking con
trast with that of Bismarck In 1871.
Fresh protests and fresh moments of
crisis are certain to be forthcoming
when the final terms of the armlatlce
are produced at Troves.
CLEMENCEAU'S LUNGS WERE
PENETRATED BY BULLET
Paris.—Tho bullet which wounded
Premier flemenceau penetrated his
lungs, It was revealed by the official
statement issued shortly after noon.
The official statement rends:
'The hemorrhage which occurred
at 1 o'clock demonstrated that tho
bullet penetrated the lungs. An X ray
examliMillon disclosed the precise lo
cation of the bullet. The general con
dition Is satisfactory. Temperature
94.8; pulse 7£. The nourishment la
normal "
The announcement made In tho offi
cial bulletin caused some anxiety In
tho immediate entourage of the pre
mier at his home and the news that
his condition was more serious than
at first reported spread quickly
throughout Paris, causing widespread
expression* of sympathy
The premlor, however, bore up re
