GERMANY MUST PAY
FOR DEPREDATIONS,
PRESIDENT DECLARES
Central Powers Must Be Put in Such Position Thai)
Repetition of War Cannot Again Be
Possible
\\ ashington, June 11.—President Wilson, in a communication
I to the new government of Russia, has made plain the war aims
j of the United States and its position on "no annexations; no in-
J demnities."
"No territory must change hands except for the purpose of
; securing those who inhabit it a fair chance of life and liberty,"
| says the communication.
"Xo indemnities must be insisted on except those that con
; stitute payment for manifest wrong done."
j "No readjustments of power must be made, except such as
; will tend to secure thf future peace of the world and the future
j welfare and happiness of its people."
In unmistakable terms, President Wilson declares against
Germany s proposal to restore the "status quo" before the war.
| "It was the status quo ante out of which this iniquitous war
issued forth," he said. "The power of the Imperial German gov
ernment within the empire and its widespread domination and
influence outside of that empire."
"That status must be altered in such fashion as to prevent
i any such hideous thing from ever happening again."
The Message
The President's communication
was delivered to the Russian govern
ment by Ambassador Francis, at
Petrograd. In lull it is as follows:
"In view of the approaching visit
of the American delegation to Rus
sia to express the deep friendship
of the American people for the peo
' pie of Russia and to discuss the best
i and most practical means of co-op
: eration between the two peoples in
: carrying the present struggle for the
! freedom of all peoples to a success
ful consummation, it seems oppor
tune and appropriate that X should
state again. In the light of this new
partnership, the objects which the
United States has had in mind in
entering the war. Those objects have
| been very much beclouded during the
past few weeks by mistaken anil
misleading statements, and the is
sues at stake are too numerous, too
I tremendous, too significant for the
whole human race to permit any
I misinterpretations or misunderstand
ings, however slight,'to remain un
corrected for a moment.
Germany Losing
; "The war has begun to go against
Germany, and in their desperate de
sire to escape the inevitable ulti
mate defeat those who are in author
ity in Germarty are uSing every pos
sible instrumentality, are making
use even of the influence of groups
and parties among their own sub-!
jects to whom they have never been
just or fair or even tolerant, to pro-
I mote a propaganda on both sides of
Ithe sea which will preserve for them:
j their influence at home and their j
! power abroad, to the undoing of the |
I very men they are using.
I "The position of America in this
' war is so clearly avowed that no man j
can be excused for mistaking it. She!
seeks no material profit or aggran
dizement of any kind. She is fight-!
ing for no advantage or selfish object
of her own but for the liberation of I
peoples everywhere from the ag- j
gressions of autocratic force. The
ruling classes in Germany have be- !
gun of late to profess a like liber- !
ality and justice of purpose, but only t
to preserve the power they have set i
up in Germany and the selfish ad-1
vantages which they have wrongly
gained for themselves and their pri
vate projects of power all the way |
from Berlin to Bagdad and beyond. !
Government after government has by j
their influence, without conquest of j
its territory, been linked together In ;
a net of intrigue directed against ;
nothing less than the peace and lib- !
erty of the world. The meshes of,
that intrigue must be broken, but;
cannot be broken unless wrongs al- j
ready done are undone; and ade-!
quate measures must be taken to
prevent It from ever again being re- j
woven or repaired.
Must Alter Status
"Of course, the Imperial German 1
government and those whom it is,
using for their undoing are seeking j
to obtain pledges that the war will j
end in the restoration of the status j
quo ante. It was the status quo ante
out of which this iniquitous war is
sued forth, the power of the Im
perial German government within
"he empire and Its widespread domi
nation and influence outside of that
empire. That status must be altered
in such fashion as to prevent any 1
such hideous thing from ever hap-1
pening again.
"We are fighting for the Jlberty,'
the self government and the undlc- !
fated development of all peoples, and S
every feature of the settlement that j
concludes this war must be conceived j
and executed for that purpose. '
Wrongs must first be righted and :
then adequate safeguards must be j
created to prevent their being com- j
mitted again. Remedies must be j
found as well as statements of prin
ciple that will have a pleasing and
sonorous sound. Practical questions
can be settled only by practical
means. Phrases will not accomplish
the result. Effective readjustments

will, and whatever readjustments are
i necessary must be made.
Must Be Free
"But they must follow a principle
i and that principle is plain. No peo-
I pie must be forced under sovereign
• ty under which it does not wish to
■ I live. No territory must change hands
, j except for the purpose of securing
; those who inhabit it a fair chance
of life and liberty. No indemnities
. must be insisted on except those that
| constitute payment for manifest
| wrongs done. No readjustments of
| power must be made except such as
1 ' will tend to secure the future peace
of the world and the future welfare
; and happiness of its peoples.
I "And then the free peoples of the
| world must draw together in some
common covenant, some genuine and
pract';al co-operation that will in
I effect combine their force to secure
| peace and justice in the dealings of
nations with one another. The broth- 1
j erhood of mankind must no longer
be a fair but empty phrase; it must
|be given a structure of force and
reality. The nations must realize
their common life and effect a work
able partnership to secure that life
i against the aggressions of autocratic
! and self-plcasing power.
Con Afford to Pay
"For these things we can afford to
; pour our blood and treasure. For
j these are the things we have always
professed to desire, and unless we
; pour.out blood and treasure now and
succeed, we may never be able to
; unite or show conquering force again
I in the great cause of human liberty,
j The day has come to conquer or sub
mit. If the forces of autocracy can
i divide us, they will overcome us; if
we stand together, victory is certain
and the liberty which victory will se
} cure. We can afford then to be gen-
I erous, but we cannot afford then or
I now to be weak or omit any single
guarantee of justice and security."

Freedom Fires to
Burn Fourth of July
The dawn of a new era of democ
racy is to be celebrated by the 96,-
623 Camp Fire Girls in this country
in a novel and interesting manner
next month on Independence Day.
As the Greeks of old lit their sig
nal fires which flashed from hill to
hill the news of the fall of Troy,
the Camp Fire Girls and possibly the
Boy Scouts will light Community
fires to blaze out the signal of Free
dom on the tops of the hills from
Eastport, Me., to the snores of the
Pacific.
As the Grecian fires announced the
return to her own country of the
most beautiful woman in the world,
so the American tires will announce
that there are brave men across the
blue waters lighting for an ideal—•
for the most beautiful woman in the
world, Liberty. In the opinion of the
Camp Fire Girls, we cannot alone
celebrate the birthday of Freedom.
There is a new birth of Freedom in
far off Russia, and the whole world
celebrates with us.
The plan is to get the city and
town officials, who are decreeing
clear ncross the country the ab
sence of gunpowder from Fourth of
July celebrations, to co-operate with
all those interested in these -nation
wide signal tires. The fires, prepared
in advance, are to be lit just at sun
set as a signal that Liberty is again
awakening throughout tlie world.
