In the words of Secretary Lansing, we wcjld have bee"- -let In for,’ but for the restraining hand of the aenate." “We know now that the league cenetltuted at Versailles It utter, ly impotent as a preventive of wa- . It le to obviously Impotent that It has net even been tried. It could not survive a tingle test. The original ('ague, mistakenly conceived and unreasonably Insisted upon, has undoubted ly passed beyond the possibility of restoration. The maturer Judgment of the world will be that It deserved to paae."
