President Wilson Urges Unified War Effort and Russia Support
In a wartime address, President Wilson stresses two duties: to win the war and to win it nobly. He rejects peace concessions as insincere, pledges full American mobilization, and highlights the Red Cross as a key instrument of mercy. He frames the war as unselfish and world knitting, with friendship as the world’s cement and the United States standing by Russia and France.
