Read the excerpt from President’s Wilson’s speech to Congress in 1917. Our object now, as then, is to vindicate the principles of peace and justice in the life of the world as against selfish and autocratic power and to set up among the really free and self-governed peoples of the world such a concert of purpose and of action as will henceforth ensure the observance of those principles.

What motive for entering World War I is expressed by President Wilson?

The United States must protect individual rights.
The United States must display its international power.
The United States must allow all types of governments to exist.
