President Ador Brings
Formal Statement Will
Meet Wilson Tonight
EXPECT PART IN PEACE
j
Seek to Remain Permanent
Neutral and Desire Ac
cess to the Sea
By the Associated Press
Tatn, Jan. 23. Tho Presidents of the
United States nnd Switzerland will meet
this evening at 7.30 o'clock. President
Qustnv Ador, who nrrled hero from
Berne yesterday, will, before ho meets
President Wilson, confer with Presi
dent Polncarc, Premier Clemenceau and
possibly Premier I.lojd Gcorce
He comes to Paris bearing an official
statement of the Iews of the Swlsi
Government on pending International
questions, which will bo laid before the
Feaco Congress, The statement follows:
"One. Switzerland expects to bo ad
mitted, with other States, to tho peace
negotiations as far as they will deal
with her own special Interests or with
problems of general Importance In
clusion from deliberations on problems ,
of the league of Nations would be i
considered by the SwUs people ns lncon-
lstent with the principles of democracy '
Neutral States not halng been called
upon to make as hcay sncrlflces as i
belligerents, hae, nevertheless, suffered I
severely In consequence of the war. All ,
haVe been able, especially In the case of
Switzerland, to render considerable scr- j
Ice to humanity. j
Swiss Fin or Lensue .
'Second. Switzerland highly approves'
the creation of a lpague of nations fori
preserving peace, and expects from it a
oomDleto reform of International rela
tions. Consequcntls, the maintenance
of peace Fliould not really depend upon
the observation of a, procedure of In
" wwot. ... vi j....v...- ". ...
qulry previous tq a declaration of war,
DUt musi do lounuca upon a general in-
terdlctlon to parties In conflict not to
resort to arms. International conllk.s
must, as far as their character allows,
k. .nurt ith.r hv nrhitrminn trihun.-iis
formed by tho free conrent of the par-
ties, or else ty a permanent interna
tional court offering every guarantee of
political Independence. All other Inter -
national disputes must be submitted to
a procedure of mediation through which
lajttlncr npttlements on the basis of roullv
and justice can be arrived at
"Third, Switzerland recognizes tho
necessity for action, which may ulti
mately consist of military pressure,
within the system ot tho league of na
tions. Nevertheless, Switzerland Is de
termined not to abandon her neutralitv,
which Is laid down In the Swiss Consti
tution and based on the tradition ot
400 years of peaceful politics. This neu
trallty is necessary for Switzerland, con.
slderlng the composition of her popula.
tlon. as well as on account of her being ' VltnHz mm ha la posslhlllta del con- ,

of nations, the exigence of the ono cho avesse II posus-o ilella lMl-
several permanently neutral and Invlo

for the league Itself The Institution of

Is to be able to entirely fulfill Its task.
"Fourth. Freedom of production and
commerce is of vital Importance for
Switzerland. Tho Swiss people hope
peace will re-establish the principle ot
commercial freedom. As far as limita
tions wllj be Imposed concerning Im
portation, exportation and friv passage
of goods, and raw materials, all States
should mutually accord each other most
favored national treatment.
"Fifth. Switzerland, ns .i landlocked
country, mainly dependent upon Its
share of the world's commerce, highly
approves of the principle nf free .iccess
to the sea. First of all, Switzerland at
tributes great Importance to the main
tenance and Improvement of the exist
ing International waterway of tho
Rhine from Basel to tho North Sea.
Switzerland fully expects, besides, that
i It will soon be possible to come to an
understanding with France and Italv for
opening the llheno nnd To-Tlelno nivers
for navigation on ,i big scale, and ob
tain recognition of similar principles re
garding these rivers, as are In vogue for
already internationalized waterways It
also Is of vital Interest to Switzerland
to obtain the right of passage over rail
roads to the sea and through Kuropean
States eastward.
"Sixth. The political, legal nnd eco
nomlc principles formulated by Presi
dent Wilson are so entirely In conformity
with the traditlonnl wants of Switzr
land that she will adhere to them, what
ever difficulties may lie In the way of
their realization."
