I Majority Point Out America! Cannot Now Disappoint the World. i'.r I'nited Press: LONDON', l-Vb. 20. Loudon new-?-j papers generally were unstinting ia thur praise of Pres't Wilson's speech at lioston. Th majority of them j mentioned his stateme nt , that ; "America is the hope of the world," I agreeing that the United States can- I not now disappoint the world regarding the league of nations and t pointing out that the days of Ameri- j can Isolation are passed. J The Post was the only newspaper t whi h attempted to throw cold water on the address. j "We tried, not with complete sue-1 . ces.s, to blow the foam off the divim; j j beaker of eloquence with which j J Pres't Wilson refreshed the dry city j j of lioston," said the Post. "What j j pleased us moüt was his praise of the ; American soldier. We also rejoiced! J to see that he is Poland's friend, be- j I cause it was rumored probably by j the enemy that he was a little ; backward in that cause." Other raiHTs Comment. Other newspapers commented as follows: Daily News "Kvery pacific interj est in Europe is with Pres't Wilson ! in his appeal to his people. We do I not think the appeal will be In vain, j There are parts of the world, particularly the far east, where the United States could be the only disinterested and wholly trusted mandatory. The fact the United states is engaged In the common task of reconstruction will dissipate old jealousies, confirm the world's faith in America and conv rt the league of nations from an aspiration to an enduring: fact." The Mail "Pres't Wilson appealed to the best instincts of his coun- ! trymen. The alternative of tho ' United States returning to its isola tion is unthlnkabel. If the United States merely signs the treaty and withdraws, we will be left with another 'scrap of paper' on our hands The United States must stay to the end." A Sot-oml threat Senke. The Chronicle "If Pres't Wilson succeeds in carrying his people with him in this crusade, he will have rendered his fecond great tervico to mankind as great as that of bringing the United States into the war." Telegraph "Pres't Wilson's words are a challenge to humanity which will ignore them at its peril.' ' Times "The policy of isolation Is something to which America cannot return. However, these are matters of America's domestic policy which we cannot discuss. Few will question the statement that the peace cannot last more than a generation unless It is agreed to by the united forces of the civilized world." THOMPSON IS NAMED BY G. 0. P.
