SAYS 2 POWERS OAK ROLE WORLD

discount Northcliffe, Great British •Journalist, Talks to 100 Correspondents. JAMES TWO CHEF FOUNTS Declare* League of Nations Indispensable, Foundation of Which Would Be Close Association of Great Britain and America. - 1,l —■ Paris, Dec. 23.—Viscount North ilffe, British jourtfaUst-dynamo, uni ersally regarded as the “maker” of he Lloyd George coalition govern lent, called in the hundred-odd Amercan correspondents now In Paris, foi i reception at the Ritz and had a rank heart-to-heart talk with them in hich he touched earnestly upon some if the great issaes of war and peace. In a candid, forceful way, the fanous British publisher drove home his convictions on two chief points : 1. That it league of nations is India leasable to future peace. 2. That the firmest keystone for the .’ouhdation of such a league would be the closest possible association and cooperation of Great Britain and America. *

“President Wilson,” said the viacount, “will receive in England the greatest welcome ever accorded a foreigner. I am gl;id he is going to Jhe northern part of England, the home of British manufactures and the birthplace of the labor unions. London, of course, does not represent England any more than New York represents the United Staffs. Will Find Friends. “Hels the first foreigner who has the wisdom to go to that part of Eng■and of which'we are very proud. He .vill find there especially, a most ly feeling toward the United States. “The president will penetrate the heart of England and reach the heart of English life. His trip, Vil'. 'be of tremendous good for the relations between the two nations. Certainly Mr. Wilson showed infinite courage in breaking all precedents by coming to Europe. Raw Materials Rule World. - “The real basis for a. league of nations should be found in the closest possible association of the two most powerful nations in the world. Quite apart from ideals, the rehlity Is that these two English-speaking nations control every piece of raw material in the world. In this situation it would he impossible to sV’-i’t a scrap even between Chile'and Peru. “The league of nations certainly is me of the most important of the president’s 14 points. Every Englishman Agards the president's visit as .the .oust important event in the history of Anglo-American relations.” , All Know Wilton’s Purpose. •‘The president,” added the viscount, ‘probably will not receive the same ' in-d of reception in England he received in Paris because we are not a lemonstrative people, but it is certain ■ o .-be the greatest reception any forigner ever got on English soil. Every :: ;an In Europe knows that the presi.lvnt has come to prevent the lecuri tnee of what the world has suffered or four and a half- years.”

RESIDENT WARNS IN SPEECH

Wilson Says Peace Delegates Masters of None —Servants. Paris, Dec. 23.—“ There is a great vind of moral force moving through world, and every man opposing ‘dinself to that wind will go down in “sgra.ce.” At the end of his first week in Eu■one. President WFlson proclaimed this ■ arningkl his speech at the Sorbonne, .riding: “The tq.sk of those gathering here •:> make the settlement of peace is :reatly simplified by the fact that they ire the masters of none, but the servants of mankind, we- do not heed the mandates of mankind we shall make ourselves the most conspicuous and derided failure In the history of the world.”
