HOOVER SPEECH IS PUT UNDER EUROPE'S X-RAY Diplomats Are Puzzled as to Actual Meaning of Armistice Address. BY WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS Scrlppi-Howard Foreign Editor WASHINGTON, Nov. 11.—As the United States is almost universally regarded as the master key to the organization of the world for peace, foreign diplomats here today were scanning every line and weighing every word of President Hoovers Armistice day address. What they found as a result of their eager search, they themselves hardly know. For while in one place the President seemed to hold out a pretty definite promise of something more than mere moral co-operation, he subsequently appeared jo qualify the promise, leaving the situation, as the diplomats might express it. in status quo ante. In plain English, what Europe in general, and Great Britain in particular, want to know is, what would the United States do if it saw a nation about to go to war in violation of its pledge uuder the Kellogg pact? And what would it do after the war started? V N United States Out of Fold The rest of the countries of the world, exclusive of the United States, are members of the League of Nations. As such they ar# pledged in advance to help the victim of an outlaw state, and try to bring about the defeat of the outlaw. But the United States is free to help the outlaw, if it feels like it. or lend money or sell supplies to a violator of the Kellogg pact. Which means, among other things, the distinct possibility of a clash between, say, the British nav>, blockading the outlaw state, and the United States fleet attempting to enforce “the of the seas.” if the United States would agree to consult with the other powers in the event of a violation, actual or threatened, of the Kellogg pact with a view deciding upon a possible course of action to prevent war, the cause of world peace would be advanced materially, in the opinion of foreign diplomats. A nation would hesitate a long time before deliberately placing itself in the position of an outlaw state. Nothing Definite Told That some such eventuality is possible at some future time, was indicated by the President today. But, he added, such are the ageold dangers and long-inherited fears prevalent among the nations of the old world that they believe force may be necessary, in the long run, to compel nations to abide by such agreements as the Kellogg pact. On the other hand, he concluded, “we believe that our contribution best can be made in these emergencies, when nations fail to keep their undertakings of pacific settlement of disputes, by our good offices and helpfulness free from any advance commitment or entanglement as to the character of our action.” Which, foreign observers comment, leaves everything just where it was, at least so far as the present is concerned.
