ity Fellow Countrymen The
tronty of peace has been signed If
it is ratified and acted upon in full
ami sincere execution of its terms it
will furnish the charter for u now
order of affairs in the world It is a
simiu1 treaty in the duties and penal
tics It imposed upon Germany but
it Is secro only because great wrongs
doue by Germany are to bo righted
and repaired it imposes nothing that
Ocrmany can not do and sho can regain
her rightful stnmling in tho
world by tho prompt nnd houornblo
fulfillment of its terms
And it is much more than a
treaty of peace with Germany It
liberates great peoples who have
neer boforo been able to find tho
way to liberty It ends onio for nil
an old and intolerable order under
which Miinll groups of selfish men
lould u u the peoples of grcnl em

I the free Governments of tho world
I in a permanent league in which they
are pledged to use their united power
to maintain pence by maintaining
sanctions It does away with the
right of request and rejects the
polity of annexation nud substitutes
n new order under which backward
nations populations which have not
vet come to political consciousness
and peoples who are reudy for inde
pendence but not yet quite prepared
to dispense with protection nnd
