It may be in the mountains or by the shore: eVen in the heatoppressed city and the market-place. “Wherever we go we may take our church with us for it is not a thing of masonry hut an inner shrine. “We shall not meet together here until the fall, but our spirits may assemble each Sunday and we may together continue our devotion." * * * THE REV.

AMERICA ENTERS EUROPEAN ARENA (Continued From Page 1) In Europe with mor©.Jthan usual in terest. The 1916 election was a contest of deep concern for this continent. We knew not, at the time, jvhat effect it might' have upon ihe fate of the- war then being waged. President Wilaon had, by a number memorable phrases, committed him self deeply to non-intervention, and the allied nations were not.- therefore, hopeful of American aid coming from his return to power. On the other hand, although Mr. Hughes was believed to be in real sympathy with the allied cause, it was feared that the German vote was too powerful a factor in the- elections to enable him to give expression or effect his views. The presidential contest of 1924 comes once more at a critical juncture In the affairs of Europe. Shows Hand President Coolidge has shown his hand by his direct participation in the expert examination of the German financial position by a committee appointed under the auspices of the reparations commission. His action is emphasized by the fact not only that Genera! Dawes, the chair man of this eommkte*-, is an American, but by the circumstance that he has been chosen by the Republican convention to run with President Coolidge, at the election. It commits the Republican party to a policy <of making good the Dawes recommendations. It is as complete an abandonment of the policy of nonintervention in European troubles as was President Wilson’s declaration of war in 1917. It brings America definitely back into the European arena. To us on this side of the Atlantic it looks like a complete reversal of the policy of isolation and repudiation, so loudly proclaimed by Mr. Hiram Johnson. The old policy at international conferences, since the Senate blocked the treaty of 1919, was to send some American official to occupy a stage box during the performance and write letters home about the play. This has now entirely gone. America is herself playing a great part in the next important act in the drama. What is more, she is prepared to take her share in the cost of running the show. No Room for League It is true there is no room on the Republican platform for the "League of Nations. The covenant is as emphatically disowned and denounced as it ever was. But what matters mogt for Europe Is that America should re-cross the Atlantic, after her disastrous absence of years from the oouin ils of the world. This is assured, whether Republican pr Democratic candidates lie returned. As to Mr. i>a Follette's views on the stfbjeet, I have no information. But judging by the con sti.tuency which he specially appeals tc and which constitutes his main strength, I should expect to find him an advocate of any proposition which would conduce to European settlement. I met a number of his supporters In th--* farming communities of rhe Middle West. They complained of the serious effect which disturbances in Europe were having on the markets for their produce. Germany, who was formerly v large purchaser of Minneapolis ind Chicago products, was no longer able to buy. \ny scheme, therefore, which will result in restoring the purchasing capacity of Middle Europe nust appeal lo the cultivators of the Middle West. I shall therefore be surprised if Mr. La Follette does not commit himself to the carrying out of the Dawes report in letter and spirit Davis Well Known As to the Democratic candidate, he never was a non-interventionist. llis position as ambassador to the

court of St. James from 1919 to 1921 has made him a well-known figure in western Europe. He followed one of the ablest and most popular ambassadors the States ever sent to Britain —the late Mr. Walter Page. But that exceptional popularity was maintained by Mr. Davis. His engaging personality, his tact and judgment and his remarkable gifts of speech, made for him a host of admirers and friendß on this side of the Atlantic, and the contest will be watched with all the more personal interest because he is one of the champions in the ring. But as far as the program of his party on foreign policy is concerned, there is only one aspect which would lead one to expect .any further advance In the direction of intervention, beyond that indicated in the Republican program. < Both parties promise to take steps to summon (in international conference with a vipw to inducing the nations tc reduce their land armaments. If this conference Is as successful £s the Washington conference on naval armaments, the burdened and threatened nations will have cause to rejoice. The more marked difference in the attitude of the two great parties on foreign affairs appears in their treatment of the League of Nations. The covenant is more respectfully and sympathetically spoken of by the Democrats than by the Republicans. That was to be expected. B’tt the promise of a referendum on the whole question might, if it fructified. end in bringing America into an amended league. That would profoundly affect world politics by giving new' life and prestige to the league. Decislvf Say On the whole, the impression of an outside observer is that one party feels It has gone further to support it, and that the other party realizes that it went further in the direction of intervention than American opinion was prepared to go. but that, whatever party wins, America means to have a decisive say in world affairs. As the campaign develops, difference of attitude on foreign questions may become more definite and challenging. The strength of the Wilsonian and anti-Wilsonian traditions may manifest themselves in marked divergencies of policy. For the mo-, ment, these are not cigar at this distance from the scene of action. But, whatever happens, it is Inconceivable, that America, having come in decisively, can possibly quit without seeing the Dawes report right through. General Dawes commits one party. The memory of President Wilson commits the other. But we shall
await developments with interest not umnixed with anxiety. There is another circumstance in the coming presidential struggle which is lending special interest to it. It is the first occasion in which anew party has appeared in the arena with a following sufficiently powerful to introduce an element of doubt as to the result. The Roosevelt split-, which put the Democrats in power in 1913, was mainly a personal struggle. The powerful personality of Mr. Roosevelt could alone, in those days, have produced such a formidable division in the Republican ranks. Triangle in Politics The La Follette secession seems to be of a different type. It partakes more of the character of the Labor movement which has so seriously crippled the Libera! paryt in this country. Will it end in giving the “triangle” as firm a plaoe in the politicals orchestra of the States as it has won in European politics? The two-party syst'em. which governed Britain for centuries, has disappeared and we are clumsily working out the three-party system. It is too early yet to predict whether we shall be as successful in operating democratic institutions on the new plan as we have been with" the old. So far, tire effect has been entirely conservative. The new party pleads the handicap of a minority as an ever-present excuse for not even attempting to carry out its revolutionary program. Its supporters, who had been looking forward to a feast of milk and

In Italy it has ended in Fascism. The country could “stand the confusion of the group system no longer. Hence Mussolini and his extraordi fiary electoral law for manufacturing an artificial majority for the nation to walk on to the next stage. Here in this country we have no material with which to form any estimate of the electoral prospeets of a third party in the States. But if they assume formidable proportions, the States will have good reason to sympathize with our difficulties in conducting a government under th" three-party system.
