STRANGE CASE OF MR. BORAH

Senator Borah has such an obsession against the treaty of peace that he is resolved to lead or follow .a third party if the treaty is ratified. In his fury against the league of nations he has put up with some strange bedfellows, but how shall we account for his ipassionate sympathy with Lenine and Trotsky? That he thinks he seee Japan and Great Britain, the painted devils that stare at him from every corner of the world, stirring up what he calls Mr. Wilson’s “plain usurpation of power to maintain troops in Russia” is natural enough in his excited condition of mind, but, even with the utmost tolerance and al-

lowance for that, he surprises and shocks by his zeal to help the Bolshevist tyrants and murderers, the suppression by terror of the yule of the majority, of democracy, of freedom of the press, and all the rights guaranteed to democracy. Mr. Borah- cries that “the women and children of Russia are being starved by a blockade maintained against Russia by the allied governments. There has been nothing more cruel or infamous than this blockade.” The women and children of one of the greatest food countries in the world are being starved by Mr. Borah’s new friends, Lenine and Trotsky. “Be a Bolshevik or starve if we don’t kill you in some other way” is, in effect, the precept and the practice of this Marxian autocracy. These men are the enemies of the United States, of every democratic nation. Their armies are largely officered by Germany. In Poland, Hungary, the Balkans, in every country, including the United States, they and their disciples by armed violence, economic disturbance, or propaganda are playing ‘the German game. At home their deliberate ferocity, intolerance, and oppression have stirred the horror of mankind. They have ruined their own country. They seek to ruin all countries. The senator from Idaho weeps upon their bosoms. He finds no cruelty or infamy in them. It is the blockade that is cruel and infamous. There isn’t much for Senator Borah in the Korean, Egyptian, Hindoo vote, but what singular recruits he enlists, or seems to be trying to enlist, for his third party! He ranges himself not only with the Sinn Feiners, but with the I. W. W., with the socialists and the communists, with the sentimental amateurs of the Russian gospel of destruction. Is it a proletarian party that he is to lead, after the

fatal day of ratification? —New York Times.

THE SENATE AND SHANTUNG

The treaty rippers of* the senate have said so much about Shantung tijat it might be wellr to set down in order a few plains facts relative to that province. By the terms of the- treaty, Japan succeeds to the economic rights formerly held by the kaiser in that province. Except in a very small strip, including the town- of Tsing Tao, and containing rather less than 200,000, she is under pledge to hand back the political control of the province to China. This being the case, what can the senate do about it? Nothing. The treaty goes into effect as soon as it is ratified by three of the allied powers.’ England already has ratified it, France and Japan assuredly will. When that happens, the legal title to such parts of Shantung as are affected by the treaty passes forthwith to Japan. True, by a successful war, we could force Japan to give up that title; but no one, not even a g. o. p. senator, has been preposterous enough to propose that the United States should go to war with Japan over this matter; The senate can not alter the status of Shantung by killing the treaty. All it can do is to ange 4 Japan, and keep the best friend China ever had —the United States —out of that league of nations to which Japan must give an account of her stewardship.—Chicago Journal.

TREATY DELAY PERIL—LAMONT

Financier Sees Calamity to America in Senate’s Fumbling. New York, Sept. 12. —Renewed bolshevik efforts, which will spread to America; further chaos among the newer nations abroad; starvation for millions in Europe during the coming winter, and the United States forced to enter the league of nations as "a. novice, “hand in hand with Germany,” if the senate continues to delay ratification of the peace treaty are predicted by Thomas W. Lamont of J. P. Morgan & Co. Mr. Lamont is a lifelong Republican and was one of the financial advisers to the American peace delegation. “The whole world is crying for peace, for a chance to renew its normal life and work,” he said. “This country, by continued inaction, refuses to grant her consent to the settlements. necessary.” “Since it became evident to the commercial world that the action of the senate might result in the nullification of the treaty, there has been an “alarming fall in the rates of foreign exchange,” Mr. Lamont said. “For this,” he said, “no remedy can be had as long as the delay continues at Washington;«no plan for the extension, of foreign credits, so necessary to maintain America’s export trade, can be evolved. “It is hard to conceive the attitude of mind that insists upon such calamitous fumbling with the most critical situation that the world has ever seen. The only explanation is that there is still almost incredible lack of understanding, both of the treaty provisions theimselves and of the manner in which the affairs of the world await America’s consent to peace.” President Wilson in the negotiations at Paris, said Mr. Lamont, had “played no politics” and had “acted with moderation, common sense and great patience.’’ Charges that he had refused to consult with members of his delegation were characterized as “untrue.” “Close examination of the points which are styled as dangerous by those senators who desire to amend the treaty fails to disclose any perils whatever,” he added. “Why reopen the whole peace negotiations?’’ he asked. “As tho main treaty, the clause about Shantung is the only one exciiing controversy. Well, nobody likes that clause, President Wilson, as he has intimated, as little as anyone else.” Mr. Lamont urged that the United States rely upon Japan’s good faith and the league of nations £b restore Shantung. to China.
