PRESIDENT OF
HUM REPUBLIC
SIGNS TiUTT
URGES RESUMING OF
TRADE WITH HUNS;
AMERICA MUST AID
WASHINGTON July 10. President Wilcoii in presenting the
peace treaty with Germany to tho Senato today declared that a
league of free nations has become a practical necessity to which tho
framcrs of the treaty felt obliged to turn to a3 an indispensable in-
ctrumontality for tho maintenance of the ntw order Which it is their
purpose to set up in tho world. . Tho most skeptilal of the conferees
ho said turned to the League for a solut'on of tho problems arising
in framing the treaty itself.
Tho fact that tho covenant was tho first substantive part of tho
treaty worked out and agreed upon made the formulativo of the rent
easier ho said. The pgrtomont on the covenant gave the conferees a
feeling that their wcrk would be permanent.
When the President entered the Senato chamber escorted by a
committee of the Senate tho crowded galleries disregarded the Sen-
ate rules and cheered for sovcral minutes
WASHINGTON July 10. President Wilson submitted to tho
Senato today the only treaty containing the covenant of the League of
Nations. Tho proposed supplcmentaty treaty under which tho United
States agrees to- aid Franco in the caso of an unpro.vokcd assault by
Germany is to bo presonted later.
Tho president is preparing a scparato address explaining this.
President Wilson told newspaper correspondents that ho was
cxtrcTflely gratified that the peaco treaty was ratified so promptly
by thqJJcrman National Assembly.
Ho indicated that ho felt that trado relations with Germany and
associated natiens should bo resumed as early as possible for without
trado Germany will bo unable to meet the reparation demands.
Tho President said that ho felt American troops should remain
in Germany un tl all military terms of tho treaty have been complied
with. Ho pointed out that several million veteran soldiers of Ger-
many arc with sufficient munitions to operate. The Germans haVo
four months in which to deliver all of their war material oxcept a
sufficient amount for tho reduced Germany army and tho President
believes that the American troops should remain on the Rhino until
that material is delivered.
Discussing the peace negotiations he said that the League cove-
nant included every treaty negotiated at Versailles including Bul
garia with whom tho United States waa never at war.
Regarding tho Piumo situation ho pointed out that tha Treaty
of London provided that Piumo should go to Croatia and that Italy
did not claim that city when that treaty was signed.
Demobilization he said depends upon tho speed with-which Mie
military conditions of tho treaty aro executed by Germany and rati-
fication by the various governments. Ho said that ho fls the
United States must play a generous part in the reconstruction of
Europe but believes it should be accomplished by establishing ?. basis
of credit rather than by direct government aid
Tho President is understood to hold tho position that two-thirds
majority is required to adopt the Senato resolution ratifying the peaco
treaty The impression ol opposition leaders in the senato has bean
that only a simplo majority is required.
President Wilson let it bo known to the correspondents that tho
treaty with Frinco i3 designed for the protection of France until
a special guarantee longer is needed because of protection afforded
all nations by the League of Nations. The President has the impres-
sion that tho French people will bo cut to tho heart if the United
States' fails to -approve the special treaty. He does not believe that
there will bo any difficulty in rccogniidng such an act of aggression
by Germany which will necessitate American aid under the pact w
