TO JOIN OTHERS TO KEEP PEACE President Wilson declared before the League to Enforce Peace in Washington Saturday night that the United States was ready to join In any feasible association of nations to preserve the peace of the world against "political ambition and selfish hostility" and in service of a "com mon order, a common Justice and a common peace." He expressed the hope that the terms of peace which end the war would Include such an arrangement. Outlining suggestions for peace, which the president said he hoped the United States would make if It had opportunity to do so, he Included pro vision for absolute freedom of the seas, a contention which has been the keystone of all the diplomatic dis cussions with Germany and Great Britain and virtual guarantees of ter ritorial integrity and political inde pendence. Officials Interrupted the president's address as a preliminary feeler for peace in Europe. He outlined the con ditions on which the United States would move if it made a formal med iatory offer with tho idea, it is under stood, of learning how such sugges tions would be received abroad. "I am sure," said the president, "that the people of the United States would wish their government to move along these lines: "First, such a settlement with re gard to their own immediate Interests as the belligerents may agree upon. We have nothing material of any kind to ask for ourselves and are quite aware that we are in no sense or degree, parties to the present quar rel. Our interest is only in peace and its future guarantees. "Second, an universal association of the nations to maintain the inviolate security of the high way of the seas for the common and unhindered use of all the nations of the world, and to prevent any war begun either con trary to treaty covenants or without warning, and full submission of the causes to the opinion of the world, a virtual guarantee of territorial In tegrity and political independence." The fundamentals of a lasting peace, President Wilson salV he be lieved, were: . "First, that every people has a right to choose the sovereignty un der which they shall live. Like other nations," the president said, "we have ourselves no doubt once and again of fended against that principle when for a little while controlled by selfish passion, as our franker historians have been honorable enough to ad mit; but it has become more and more our rule of life and action. "Second, that the small States of the world have a right to enjoy the same respect for their sovereignty and for their territorial integrity that great and powerful nations expect and insist upon. "And third, that the world has a right to be free from every disturb ance of its peace that has its origin in aggression and disregard of the rights of people and nations." The outstanding lesson of the world war, the president said, had been that peace of the world must hence forth depend upon "a new and more wholesome diplomacy." "If this war has accomplished noth ing else for the benefit of the world," he said, "it has at least disclosed a great moral necessity and set for ward the thinking of the statesmen of the world by a whole age. Repeated utterances of the leading -statesmen of most of the great nations now en gaged in war have made it plain that their thought has come to this, that the principle of public right must henceforth take precedence over the individual interests of particular na tions and that the nations of the world must in some way band them selves together to see that that rigut prevails as against any sort of selfish aggression; that henceforth alliance must not be set up against alliance, understanding against understanding, that there must be a common agree ment for a common object and that at the heart of that common object must lie the inviolable rights of peo ples and mankind." "So sincerely do we believe in these things." said the president in conclu sion, "that I am sure that I speak the mind and wish of the people of America when i say that the United States is willing to become a part ner In any feasible association of na tions formed in order to realize these objects and make them secure against violation." The president told his hearers he had not come to discuss a program, but only to avow a creed and give ex nression to the confidence that the ' world was approaching a day when some common force would he created for "the service of a common order, a common justice and a common peace." 736 POSSIBLE JURORS HAVE BEEN EXAMINED 1 Waukegan, ill May 29.

TO BE VERY AMBASSADOR LIN SEEMS OPTIMISTIC Thinks That the End of the Great European Conflict Is at Last in Sight. CONVINCED THAT U. S. WILL AID FOR PEACE Berlin (May 2ff, by way of Lon don), May 27. United States Ambassador James W. Gerard Is convinced that peace Is in sight, according to an intorview pub lishd in a Munich newspaper to day, from Its Berlin correspond ent. Mr. Gerard is quoted as saying: "Nothing can shake my confi dence that peace is on Its way." The ambassador referred to the settle of the differences of the United States and Germany as preparing the way for President Wilson to take up the question of peace. "President Wilson," he said, has much greater freedom of ac tion now to deal with tbe Immense world problem, which will deter mine the future attitude of nearly all the countries on the globe. "It is useless to discuss at this moment the question as to wheth er President Wilson's intermedi ation Is desirable or probable. In this instance, facts alone must speak, and one of the most Import ant facts Is that the neutrals are probably as much interested in bringing about an early peace as the belligerents. America urgent ly needs peace and for this rea son, alone, the American govern ment la under an obligation to Its citizens to support everything that serves" the cause of peace. A fact of chief Importance is that my government is'really-williug to take action for the promotions of business. "I am very optimistic regard ing the progress already made of the idea that war should be ended, even among belligerent nations. -The wise and moderate words of the German Chancellor regarding Germany's readiness to make peace havi probably the strong est echo n America and nave strengthened, the impression that Germany will take all further steps calmly and with confidence. Thinks U. S. Will Aid. "Whether a further step will be tak en and what shall be the further de velopment of the peace idea my idea is note clear. At any rate, I am con vinced that my government will leave nothing undone to support, with all its power, peace jnoveanents from what ever side they come. Even although weeks and even months may elapse be fore the thought takes tangible form, nothing can shake my confidence that peace is on Its way." , Referring' to the recent crisis in the German-American relations, the am bassador said: "I hardly see from what quarter the present good relations between the United States and Germany could be disturbed. The establishment of good relations with Geormany is one of the most important facts of the dip lomatic situation now confronting the United States." GEN.
