VIGOROUS DEFENSE
OF PESCE TREATY
Sioux Falls. S. D. Declaring that
nro-Germanism again had lifted its
head in this country. President Wil
son declared in an address here "that
every element of chaos" was hoping
there would be "no steadying nana
placed on the world's effairs.
"I want to tell ou," said the Presi
dent, "that within the last two weexs
the pro-German element in the United
States again has lifted its head."
Declaring the peace treaty provis
ion for an international labor confer
ence would give labor a new bill of
rights, the President declared the
treaty was a "laboring man's treaty"
in the sense that it was a treaty
drawn up for the benefit of the com
mon people.
The political settlements them
selves, said the President, were made
for the peoples concerned. He assert
ed that the document laid down for
ever the principle that no territory
ever should be governed except as
the people who lived there wanted it
governed.

Des Moines, Iowa.-The Versailles

to one of arbitration and peace

Describing the world as desper:
ately in need of the settled conditio
of peace, the President said tne
United States, the last nation which
the world expected to have to wait
upon, was delaying the coming of
that peace
The treaty, he said, not only
would establish peace but , it would
end forever the rule of a few men
over the destinies of the many..
Citing what happened in Europe
with the rise of bolshevism, Mr. -Wil
son said the move of radicalism and
disorder was spreading.
Do you honestly think that none
of that poison has got into the veins
of this free people?" he asked.
"Men look you calmly in the face
in America and tell you they are for
that sort of revolution.
"So long as the ruestion of what
kind of peace the world was to have
and what guarantees were to be be

would continue to spread.

The President said he had not been
able to work out the solution of rail
wav problems until he knew when a
peace basis came. The conference of
labor and capital in Washington next
month, he continued, also would have
its deliberations affected by the an
swer to the treaty question. Labor
"all over the world is waiting," he
asserted, "to see whether the United
States accepted the treaty's provision
for an international labor orgamza
tion."
The United States, said the Presi
dent, could not participate in the
world labor conference to be held in
Washington soon under the treaty un
less the treaty was accepted by this
country. Such a condition would be
"inconceivable," he added, and would
lead to the greatest "mortification."
"The world is waiting," said the
President, "to see not whether we
will take part, but whether-we will
take the lead."

Wilson said, intended to set up a
standard to which the world could
