TEE LRAGUK OF NATIONA (By Gootge M. Stevens) A question of the greatest magnitude confronts the American people at the present time. A question of the future foreign policy for this naIt is a question which cannot be confined to the small sphere of party politics because of the principles involved. Leaders of the two foremost political parties are actively engaged in discussing the merit and demerits of the League of Nations, | William Howard | Taft, — former | Republican President, in now aligned with the cause for making the League of Na+ tions a perimanont institution, while Henry Cabot Lodge, probably ome af the most eminent and well trained statesman along the line of intermational relations, was oppraed to the first draft of the League‘s Constitution. President Wilson has not a solid backing of his own party, for there are, in fact, quite a few Democratic Senators who signed a resolution which provided that the principles involved in the League idea should not be parts in to Peace Treaty. ‘There in one significant fact, however, and that is commendable. The question is to be argued before the American people fans the medium of the The prime motive was to foring. ever blot out war, by submitting the dca 3 " com of representatives unequally propdrtjoned, so it seemed, from every country which agreed to abide by its edicts. Great Britain was to have five delegates while the United States only one, The majority of Articles of the first draft were submitted by Great Britain and many of those proposed by Mr. Wilson were reJected; evident» ly then, Great Britain dominated this tain of eighteen-twelve and of seven teen seventy-aix. Trace her history in diplomatic conferences and you will find, without a single exception, she attained the "Lion Share." ‘The first draft fell far too short of preventing war it would promote it, instead of being democratic in spirit, it was autocratic, and instead of prenerving the fires of patriotism for | one‘s county it tended to: blot them out forever and make us a pert of a! wort of Bolshevik | internationalism. { Furthermore, the Monroe Doctrine |was abrogated and we could not have this, We probably need this principle | [today more than at any other period!

been published overcomes all the difficulties. | ‘The covenant does. not affect the validity . of | international engagements, such as treaties of ar bitration or regional | understanding like the Monros Doctrine, for securing the maintenance of pesce. The formei German colonies and the territories of the Ottoman Empire are to be admin: istered in the interests of civilization by Stater which are willing mandatories of the League, which wi exercise a general supervision. . The member States accept certain respon abilities with regard to labor condi tions, the treatment of natives, the oplum traffic. with . uncivilized — und semai-civilized countries, . transit . and trade conditions, the reduction of armament,.and the aid of public health nd Red Cross societies. A most important provision is that ench state is to have but one vote. This places the United States on an equal footing with the other powers. Many Senators have said that Washington warned us not to conract alliances which would prove en« ngling. — Did not Washington ally himself and this government during he Revoluntionary war with France? moriea does not need n League of ons so much as a League of Naions needs Amcrica and in the inerest of humanity we should be willmg. and the American people are willng, to enter such a league provided he legitimate interests of America properly safeguarded which they aire in present covenant. | In his great work, "The American | Jommonwenlth." .- Viscount — Jumcs Bryce mays: | ""The problems which the | Foreign ifice of the United States has to dont | vith are for fewer and far simpler than hose of the Old World, — The Republic ceps consictently to her own gide of he Atlantic; nor is it the foret of thie!

merits of the system of sematcrial authority that it has tended, by dis couraging the Executive from schemes which may prove resultless to dimininh the taste for foreign enterprise ‘and to save the country from being entangled with alliances, protector» ates, responsibilities of all sorte haat yond its own frontier. |_ "It is easier for the Americans to | practice this reserve, because . they |need. no alliances, standing. unassail« uble in their own hemisphere." But in this true today? We are in a new era and must cope with present-day nituations, with present» day means. — It is no use to harp about three thousand miles of water, for submarines can cross that broad ex« panse in fifteen days and awift cruise ers in four days. We are absolutely unprotected against the rising danger of a surprise attact . by | airplanes, armed with high explosives and gms bombs, which if they could break loose \in numbers, might destroy New York [and Philadelphia over night. | No extent of square miles, or great population, no riches, can protect any country in the world any longer, from such a frightful danger. . The approach to protection is through an in-, ternational organisation . which | will make it a business to keep track of military preparations fn all countries; and especially to watch for secre® military preparations and education im m higher sense to understand | theso problems which are before us today, Snfdboriliaindierinirenpitialiren Weadiacta |omnlord t 3 qevipateaheriigrar ‘tions which affect us most vitally for it is true, that we cam , not live without influencing society . either positively or negatively, fer better or for worse. We either have an uplifting prom Pouca and surely we do not desire to exer cine the latter, Much is made of | the | supposed despotic power of m world orgsnisation to compel ‘the United States to raise great armies for the subversion of nations in distant continents. Such comments leave out of account the fact that the League would wish to make as little trouble as possible, and that the calling out of large foress from countries far away from the storm center can only happen when # becomes necersary to confront a greed Power or combination of | Powers which are determined to break world peace. What is the alternative for | the United States if it undertakes to de pend entirely on its own resources? We need not expect ald from Europe, if we refuse to join with Europe im a common method of dealing . with such dangers, If we have to fight it will be with effective allion. We are not, and cannot be isolated internationally, .because of our intimate relations with other parts of the world through shipping through exports and imports, through interna» tional banking. through interlacing tariffe through immigration. . Prob» ably forty millions of our population were born on forcign soil, or are children or grandchildren . of — those born abroad. We can not extinguish their , or our interest in the people of other countries,

|_ Americans ate altraists, and we are , (proud of it. As a people our hearts jwere wrung by the misery of | the { Belgiins, and the Serbians, and the French, and the Armenians, and all {other peoples who were submitted to , |the curse of a German conquest of i ‘control. Still we did not go to war om !that mecount. In — ninoteen-reventeen . when | the allies were in terrible difficulties, we joined them heartily and affectionately ‘gave them food from our bins, powder ‘our magazines, and men, We wom [the war, Now shall we leave the job ‘bait fnished and shall . we, without {yielding any part of our government, Jor sovereignity, or essential national {policy withold ourselves from . the [League of Nations, that magnanimous rook of o world politica? | state of hte. oleg of Toledo, Liicas nly, as. 4.
