Answer:  FALSE

If you look at a map of the Louisiana Purchase, a line across the southern border of Missouri was set, with no slavery allowed north of that line, except for the state of Missouri itself.  So the amount of Louisiana Purchase territory established for free states was greater in land mass than the amount of that territory set to allow slavery.

The Louisiana Purchase territories were acquired from France in 1803.   Debates over the future of new states in that region continued for the next decades.  Missouri was a part of what was acquired in the Louisiana Purchase.  In 1820, when Missouri was ready to apply for statehood, a compromise was reached in Congress that established a plan for slave vs. free regions within the overall Louisiana Purchase regions.  The Missouri Compromise admitted Missouri into the Union as a slave state with Maine being added as a free state at the same time, to keep the balance of slave and free states equal.  It also prohibited any future slave states north of the latitude line 36 1/2 degrees north of the equator in territories of the Louisiana Purchase, with the exception of Missouri (north of that line) being admitted as a slave state.

President Wilson's appearance in front of the Congress asking for the declaration of war against Germany in hopes that they could influence the terms of the postwar peace settlement.
He proclaimed that the world must be made safe for democracy, to fight for the right of those who submit to authority to be their voice in their governments, for the rights and liberties of small nations and for the safety of all nations and make the world itself free.
The U.S. Senate then voted in favor of war with 82 votes to 6 and two days later the House of Representatives also voted in favor with 373 votes to 50. This solidified and announced the participation of the United States into the First World War.
