Tha Price Of Peace Will Be Impartigl Justice To All Nation* And Germany Will Have To Redeem Her Character. New York.—Tbe price of peace will he impartial Justice :o all nation*, the : nm rumen tall ty Indispensable to secure It U a league of nations formed not before or after, but at tbe pnace conference: and Germany, a* member. “will have to redeem her character not by what happens at the teace table, but by what follows." Thla was President Wilson's answer given before an audience of Fourth Liberty Loan Workers here, to tbe recent peace talk from the Central Powers, although he did not reter specifically to the utterance* of enemy leader*. Shortly before the President started -peaking new* of the further ruecesses of American. British and French offensives on the western front reached the meeting »t the Metropolitan Opera House, and this gave dramatic point to Mr. Wilson'* peroration—that “'peace drives' can be effectively neutralized and silenced only by showing that every victory of the nations associated against Geo m*ny brisga the nations nearer the sort of peace which will bring security and reasaut ance to all people* and mske the recurrence of another such struggle of pitiless force and bloodshed forever Imposrlble and that nothing else can.' "Germany Is constantly Intimating •hat 'the term*' she will accept: and always finds that the word does not want ter.us.' declared the President. -It wis! -s the final triumph of Justice and fair dealing.” Peace was not a question, declared | the Pre idem, of "coming to term*." ‘or “we cannot 'come to terms’ with them, ‘rv they have made it Impossible.’ i'eare must be guaranteed, for there Will be parties to the yieace j whose promises hawe proved untrustworthy. and means must be found in connect!JO with the peace settlemert to nmc.e.that source of insecurity." "It wou'd be folly to leave the guar antee to the subsequent voluntary •<!- lion of ".le governments we have seen destroy Bussla and deceive Rumania.” continui 1 the President. The ’’resident emphasized that the Justice ft be obtained by the leu cur must involve no discrimination to ward *-y pcopl*- This he set forth explicit’ in a set of five principles which tJ enumerated as "the practlj cal pn zram” of America’s peace term-, nd for the maintenance of which ’"he United State* is prepared to a**utae Its full share of responsibility.” J The*.- principles were, he said: ‘Tirsl The Impartial Justice meted out mu-t Involve no discrimination between tl ose to whom we wish to be Ju*t and those to whom we do not wish to be Ju*t. It must be a Justice that plays no favorites, and knows no stand ard but tin- -qual right* of the several people toncetued.
