CAN WE TRUST THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS TO KEEP UNITED STATES OUT OF WAR?

In campaigning for his league of nations Mr Wilson declares with great positiveness that the adoption of the league is the only way to keep us out of war. If tins were true, everybody -would be for the league. But is it true? Can Mr. Wilson’s statements be depended upon? Or, assuming that he means to tell the truth, can his judgment be depended upon? In campaigning for his re-election in 1916 Mr. Wilson declared with equal positiveness that his re-elec-tion as president was the only way to keep us out •of war. For example : In a letter to Senator Stone, February 24, 1916, Mr. Wilson said: “You are right in assuming that I shall do everything in my power to keep the United States out of war. ♦ ♦ * I do not doubt that I shall continue to succeed.” Addressing a delegation of Scandinavians who- visited him in the white house on March 13, 1916, Mr. Wilson said: “I can assure you that nothing is nearer my heart than keeping this country out of war.” And speaking at Shadow Lawn, September 30, 1916, to twenty-five hundred young men from New York and New Jersey, Mr. Wilson declared: “The certain prospect of the success of the Republican party is that we shall be drawn in one form or another into the embroilments of the European war.” The convention which renominated Mr. Wilson was controlled by direct wire from the white house, and the burden of all tthe nominating speeches and the tenor of all the proceedings of the convention were that Mr. Wilson had kept us out of war and that the only way for us to continue to keep out of war was to re-elect Mr. Willson. The whole succeeding campaign wias made bn that issue and Mr. Wilson was re-elected on that issue. Hundreds of thousands of people who did not like Mr. Wilson’s visionary ideas and vacillating policies nevertheless voted for him because they did not want to send ' their boys abroad to fight and perI haps to die in European wars. States that had never gone democratic went for Mr. Wilson because the voters believed his solemn pledge that he would keep the nation out of war. Yet as soon as Mr. Wilson was elected he put the nation into war. This article is not discussing whether Mr. Wilson did right or wrong in precipitating the nation into war. Let us assume that he did exactly right. Still the fact remains that he did make war after he had promised to maintain peace' and that the election of Mr. Wilson did not mean the ■ perfect peace and abstention from | European conflict which he had declared it would mean, but did mean jjust the opposite—bloody war. Therefore, how are we to know that Mr. Wilson’s pledges are any more trustworthy today when he is campaigning for the league of nations and perhaps for its presidency than they were three years ago when he was campaigning for the presidency of the United States? And if there are some who still believe that Mr. Wilson’s promises are sincere and his policies founded on fixed conviction, how are We to know that his judgment is any better today than it wias three years ago when he declared that his election meant peace? If the league of nations means the perfect 'peace which Mr. Wilson says it means, then every peace-loving American citizen would ardently support the league, but if it merely means" the entangling alliance with i European nations and participation in European wars which George Washington so. solemnly warned us against, then patriotic and peaceloving American citizens will not support it. i In deciding whether to follow the | advice of George Washington or Woodrow Wilson, it would be well to> remember that George Washington never made. a misstatement, but

EX-KING ASKS GEORGE TO DROP KAISER CHARGES.

Berlin, July 16.—Former King Frederick August of Saxony is the latest to plead the ex-Kaiser’s cause. The former petty monarch has sent a message to King George of England saying: “Your majesty will understand that the German princes of our dynasty this moment of our hardest tipail will stand by our Kaiser. In consideration of your majesty’s Christian sentiment we expect your influence toward dropping the matter of extradition.”

WHO WON THE WAR? PERSHING’S TURN.

London, July 16.—Who won the war? “France did,” says Foch. “England did,” said Haig. “The Yanks did it,” said President Wilson. And now comes General Pershing with the statement that “the American offensive on the Meuse and in the Argonne cut the German lines and made further resistance impossible. The taking of Cantigny had an electrical effect throughout the allied armies,” he said. “It aroused new hope in those who had struggled for three years against great odds.” And General Pershing told it right to the English in London today.
