France, America, and the Great Peace

MacDonald, William | March 8, 1917 issue

add to cart   close window

This article presents information about the reaction of the world on the peace note given by the U.S. President Woodrow Wilson. Up to the time when President Wilson's peace note appeared, there was no significant disposition in France to question, save in one important respect, the propriety of the course which the U.S. had taken. Its right, if it so chose, to remain neutral, and to make money out of its neutrality, was frankly conceded; nor was it believed that the war would be greatly shortened, or its character materially changed, if the U.S. were to become a participant.
