Paris, Jan. 18. Following is the speech made by Pres
ident Poincare, opening the peace congress:
"Gentlemen: France greets and thanks you for having
chosen as the seat of. your labors the city which for more
than four years the enemy has made his principal military
objective and which the valor of the allied armies has vic
toriously defended against unceasingly-renewed offensives.
"Permit me to see you in your decision the homage of all
the nations that you represent toward a country which more
than any other has endured the sufferings of war, of which
entire provinces have been transformed into a vast battle
field and have been systematically laid waste by the invader
and which has paid the human tribute in death.
"If (trr nra vicissitude thnsi'V''

They have been destroyed by their
own blindness. I
"What could be more significant
than the shameful bargains they at
tempted to offer to Great Britain
and France at the end of July, 1914.
when to Great Britain they suggest
ed: 'Allow us to attack France on
land and we will not enter the chan
nel, and when they instructed their
ambassador to say to r ranee: We
will only accept a declaration of
neutrality on your part if you sur
render to us Briey, Toul and Ver
dun.' It is in the light of these
things, gentlemen, that all the con
clusions you will have to draw will
take shape.
. "Your nations came one and all
to the help of threatened right. Like
Germany, Great Britain had guaran
teed the independence of Belgium.
Germany sought to crush Belgium.
Great Britain and France both
swore to save it.
Ideas in Conflict
"Thus, from the very beginning of
hostilities there came into conflict
the two ideas which for 50 months
were to struggle for the dominion
of the worldthe idea of sovereign
force, which accepts neither control
nor check, and the idea of justice,
which depends on the sword only
to prevent or repress the abuse of
strength."
President Poincare then detailed
how the various nations entred the
struggle.
He continued:
"The intervention of the .United
States was something more, some
thing greater than a great political
and military event. It was a
supreme judgment based by the
lofty conscience. of a free people on
the enormous responsibilities 'in
curred in the frightful conflict.
,"It was not only to protect itself
from the audacious aims of German
megalomania that the United States
equipped fleets and created immense
armies, but also and above all, to
'iefend an ideal of liberty over
which it saw the huge shadow of
the imperial eagle encroaching fur
ther every day. America, the daugh
ter of Europe, crossed the ocean
to rescue her mother from thral
dom and to save civilization.
"While the conflict was gradually
extending, the clanking of chains

mother's recipe, and folks are again
timr.g it to keep their hair a pood

ms we are living in an age when a
youthful appearance is of the great
est advantage. "
Nowadays, though, we don't have
the troublesome task of gathering
the sage and the mussy mixing at
home. All drug stores sell the ready-to-use
product, improved by the ad
ciion of other ingredients, called

was heard and captive nationalities
from their age-long jails cried out
to us for help. Yes, more, they es
caped to come to our aid.
"Poland came to life again and
sent us troops. The Czecho-Slo-vaks
won their right to inde
pendence in Siberia, in France and
:n Italy. The Jugo-Slavs, the
Armeniansthe Syrians and Levan
tines, the Arabs, all the victims,
long helpless or resigned, of the his
toric deeds of injustice; all the
martyrs of the 'past, all the out
raged in conscience, all the stran
gled in liberty, turned to us, their
natural defenders.
Crusade For Right.
"The war gradually attained the
fullness of its first significance and
became in the full sense of the
term a crusade of humanity for
right, and if anything can console
us, in part at least, for the losses
we have suffered, it is assuredly the
thought that our victory also is
the victory of right.
"In the interest of justice and
peace it now rests with you to reap
from this victory its full fruits.
"Vainly would our enemies seek
to divide as. . If they have not yet
renounced their customary maneu
v rs they will soon find that they
are meeting today, as during the
hostilities, a homogenous block
which nothing will be able to disin
tegrate. Even before the armistice
you reached that necessary unity
under the aid of the lofty moral and
political truths of which President
V"lson has nobly rr.ide himself the
interpreter and in the light of these
truths you intend to accomplish
your mission. .
You will, therefore, seek nothing
but justice; justice that, has no fa
vorites; justice in territorial prob
lems, justice in financial problems,
justice in1 economic problems. But
justice is n6t inert; it does not sub-1
mit to injustice. - What it demands
first when it has been violated are
restitution and reparation for the
peoples and individuals who have
been despoiled. In formulating thi
lawful claim it obeys neither hatred
nor an instinctive or thoughtless de
sire for reprisals. It pursues a
twofold object rto render to each
his due and not to encourage crime
by leaving it unpunished. -
Demand Punishment of Guilty.
"What justice also demands, in
spired by the same feeling, is the
punishment of the guilty and effec
tive guarantees against an active re
turn of the spirit by which they are
prompted, and it is logical to de
mand that these guarantees should
be given, above all, to the nations
that might again be most exposed
to aggression.
What justice banishes is the
dream of conquest and imperialism,
contempt for national will, the
arbitrary exchange of provinces be
tween states, as though peoples
were but articles of furniture or
pawns in a game.
"The time is no more when diplo
matists could meet to redraw the
map of empires on the .corner of a
table. If you are to 'remake the
may of the world it is in the name
of the peoples, and one condition
is that you shall faithfully interpret
their thoughts and respect the right
of nations, small and great, to dis
pose of themselves and to reconcile
with this the equally sacred right of
ethnical and religious minorities a
formidable task which science and
history, your two advisers, will con
tribute to assist and facilitate.
"You will naturally strive to se
cure the material and moral means
of subsistence for all those people
who are constituted or reconstituted
into states, for those who wish to
unite to their neighbors, for those
who reorganize themselves, for
those who divide themselves accord
ing to their regained traditions, and
lastly for all those whose freedom
you have already sanctioned or are
about to sanction. You will not call
them into existence to sentence
them to death immediately because
you would like your work to be
truittul and lasting.
Will Establish League.
"While introducing into the
world as much harmony as possible
you will, in conformity with the
14th of the propositions, unanimous
ly adopted by the great allied pow
ers, establish a general league of
nations which will be the supreme
guarantee against any fresh assault
upon the right of peoples, You do
not intend this international asso
ciation to be directed against any
body in the future. It will not, of
a set purpose, shut out anybody,
but having been organized by the
nations that have sacrificed them
selves in the defense of right, it will
receive from them its statutes and
fundamental rules.
"This very day 48 years ago on
the 18th of January, 1871 the Ger
man empire was proclaimed by an
army of invasion in the chateau
at Versailles. It was consecrated
by the theft of two French prov
inces. It waa thus a violation from
its origin and, by the fault of its
founders, it was born in injustice.
It has ended in oblivion.
"You are assembled to repair the
evil and to prevent a recurrence.
You hold in your hands the future
of -the world. I leave you, gentle
men, to your grave deliberations and
declare the conference of Paris
open." . '

FRIENDSHIP IS
KEYNOTE AT
PEACE CONGRESS
(CanNoned from Face One.)
Cuban, Haitian, Peruvian, ' Portu
guese, Serbian, Czecho-Slovak and
Uriguanian delegates sat in the or
der named. Across at the left wing
of the table sat the Siamese. Rou
manian, Polish, Liberian, Hedjaz,
Guatemalan, Ecuardorian, Chinese
and Bolivian delegations.
Received With Military Honors.
As the delegations arrived they
were met by fanfares of trumpets
and accorded military honors by, the
troops. The Japanese were among
the earlier arrivals , and were fol
lowed by the Siamese and East In
dians in picturesque turbans.
President Wilson's arrival at 10
minutes of 3 was the signal for a
demonstration from the crowds.
The president passed into an ante
chamber, where M. Pichon, the
French foreign minister awaited
and conducted. him to the council
room. '
Already the chamber was crowd
ed with delegates who greeted the
president warmly as he passed to
ward the table of honor. Here he
was joined by Secretary Lansing,
Mr. White and General Bliss, and
exchanged greetings with the Brit
ish and many other delegates.
Just at 3 o clock a ruffle of drums
and blare of trumpets announced
the approach of M. Poincare. The
French president was escorted by
the group of premiers to the head
of the table, while a hush fell upon
the assemblage as the moment ar
rived for the opening of the con
gress.
All Stand During Address.
It was exactly three minutes past
3 o'clock when M. Poincare began
his address and the peace congress
came into being. The entire as
semblage stood as the president
spoke. .
President Wilson stood imme
diately at his right and listened at
tentively. M. Poincare spoke in an
earnest, easy manner, without de
clamatory effect and, following
usage, there was no applause or in
terruption, M. Poincare spoke in French and,
when he had concluded, an inter
preter read the discourse in English.
As M. Poincare closed, he turned
to receive the congratulations of
President Wilson and Premier
Lloyd George, and then withdrew,
greeting each delegation as he re
tired. President Wilson rose as M.
Poincare made his exit. "It gives
me great pleasure," he said, "to
propose as permanent chairman of
the conference M Clemenceau."
President Wilson spoke in con
versational voice, which, however,
tarried throughout the chamber, as
he paid eloquent tribute to the
French premier.
Premier Lloyd George seconded
nomination of M. Glemenceau,
speakine earnestly of the distin
guished services the French premier
had rendered in war and peace.
i Baron Sonnino, the Italian for
eign minister, added Italy's tribute,
whereupon the election of M.
Clemenceau as presiding officer was
made unanimous.
In a feeling address, M. Clemen
ceau acknowledged the honor con
ferred upon him. He turned first
to President Wilson and bowed his
thanks, then to Mr. Lloyd George
for the tribute he had paid him. It
was not. alone a tribute to him, he
said, but to France.
"We have come together as
friends," he exclaimed. "We must
leave this hall as friends!"
, League Already Here.
Referring to the league of na
tions,! M.' Clemenceau declared it
was 'already in the way of being
ach-rfved by the gathering of this
conference. '
He then turned to the program

bility of the authors of the war:
second, responsibility for the crimes
committed during the war; third,
legislation in regard to international
labor.
All the powers represented would
be invited to present memoirs on
these three questions. The powers
having particular interests, M.
Clemenceau continued, would be
asked to present further memoirs
upon territorial, financial and eco

eloquently given expression to, as
a tribute to the man. When I was
a school boy M, Clemenceau was
a compelling and a conspicuous fig
ure in the politics of his native land,
and his fame had extended far be
yond the bounds of France.
"Were it not for that undoubted
fact, Mr. President, I should have
treated as a legend the common re
port of your years. I have attended
many conferences with M. Clemen
ceau, and in them all the most vig
orous, the most enduring and the
most youthful figure there has been
that of M. Clemenceau. He has had
the youthfulness; he has had the
hopefulness and the fearlessness of
youth. He is indeed the 'Grand
Young Man of France', and I am
proud to stand here to propose that
he should take the chair in this great
conference that is to settle the peace
of the world.
World Eager for Peace.
"But although there will be de
lays, and inevitable delays, in the
signing of peace, due to the inherent
difficulties of what we have to set
tle, I will guarantee from my
knowledge of M. Clemcnceai that
there will be no waste of time. And
that is important.
Ihe world is thirsting and hun
gering for peace. There are millions
of people who want to get back to
the world work of peace. And the
fact that M. Clemenceau is in th
chair will be proof that they will
get there without anv delav wliirh

ncuiues wnicn are essential in what
we have to perform. He is one of
the great speakers of the world.
But no one knows better than hr
that the best speaking is that which
impels beneficent actions."
Response by Clemenceau.
Premier Clemenceau responded

the national defense. i
firmly fixed and clearlv determined
ideas on what we wish to do.
"I said in the chamber a few
days ago, and I wish to repeat here,
that success is not possible unless
we remain firmly united. We have
cdme together as friends; we must
leave this hall as friends.
"All else must be subordinated to
the necessity of a closer and closer
union among the nations who have
taken part in this great war and to
the necessity of remaining friends.
For the league of nations is here.
It is yourself. It is for you to make
it live and to make it live we must
have it really in our hearts.
"As I told President Wilson a
few days ago there is no sacrifice
that I am not willing to make in
crder to accomplish this, and I do
not doubt that you all have the
same sentiments. We will make the
sacrifices, but on the condition that
we endeavor impartially to con
ciliate interests apparently contra
dictory on the higher plane of a
greater, happier and better hu
manity. That, gentlemen, is what
I had to say to you. I am touched
beyond words at the evidence - of
good will and friendship which you
show me.
"The program of, this conference
has been laid down by President
Wilson. It is no longer the peace
of a more or less vast territory, no
longer the peace of continents; it
is the peace of nations that is to be
made. This program is sufficient in
itself. There is no superflous word.
Let us try to act swiftly and well."
