http://www.ourdocuments.gov/doc.php?doc=62
Rating: 2, High!
Description: In a January 8, 1918, address to Congress, President Woodrow Wilson proposed a 14-point program for world peace. These points were later taken as the basis for peace negotiations at the end of the war. Wilson directly addressed what he perceived as the causes for the world war by calling for the abolition of secret treaties, a reduction in armaments, an adjustment in colonial claims in the interests of both native peoples and colonists, and freedom of the seas. Wilson's 14 Points were designed to undermine the Central Powers' will to continue and to inspire the Allies to victory. Wilson's capstone point calling for a world organization that would provide some system of collective security later called the League of Nations. Standards 10.6.1, 11.4.4 and 11.4.6
