future deadly peril, to the nation and

to the race. !

. In this situation, English policy pursued an individualistic course, British

statesmen perceived clearly the great value, the unmistakable necessity of achieving a substantial and enduring alliance between America and Great Britain. England had no open frontiers towards Germany. She had no immediate threat of Invasion if Germany should come again. She had no wasted fields and ruined villages, and British statesmen therefore could afford to make every concession In time and principle to Mr. Wilson's inflexible resolution that the League of Nations should be the first product of the Paris conference.

We have had therefore a very clear

and definite division of feeling and of interest in Paris, particularly during the last fortnight, growing out of French national, if exaggerated apprehension lest Germany be permitted to reorganize for a new attack the first phase of which would inevitably fall upon France, growing out of the apparent American blindness. To the realities of French feeling and growing out of the seeming sacrifice of their French allies by the British to the end of pleasing and enlisting American co-operation and sympathy jfor.tb,e future;. a.iVvH'-wi: '- ,;..., Beginning Old" Effort, i... V Fortunately the. German, as is his custom, has once more solidified the alliance against him, as he has so frequently in the past. Conscious of something of the situation in Paris the new German government has not alone failed to comply with the provisions' of the first armistice. It has failed to deliver war material, submarines and railway stock. It has in addition organized an army in the East to destroy Poland, which every reason of justice demands should be created, and through its public men it has begun to reopen agitation about AlsaceLorraine and to threaten that . Germany will accept no peace which does not, in substance, leave her unscathed, with her power unshaken and with the right to add to her own territory large areas of German Austria, with from seven to ten mulion people. In a word, perceiving that there

were difficulties not growing out of J

fundamental Divergences or view as 10 what should be done in material question, but growing out of divergences of view .as to tho relative importance of various problems, and having achieved at once unity and escaped from panic and the immediate depression of defeat, this Germany is beginning the old effort to separate his conquerors and win the war. -Like Return of Napoleon." It would be a mistake to exaggerate the Importance of the crisis through which we have passed. It would be a

mistake to hold any one of the three great powers or their representatives chiefly responsible. The fact seems to be that the Americans too little appreciated French interests, the French too little understood the need of making their interests clear to America, and the English were too eager to take advantage of present opportunities for cementing American friendship to perceive immediately the common peril and overwhelming necessity of acting as a unit In the presence of the enemy. It all comes back to the initial blunder. Germany remained the enemy, with the allies at the present time as blind to the real fact as were the allies of a century ago to the vitality of the Napoleonic peril. As I said the other day. the return of Germany to strength and to her old tone and manner, has had something of the character for Paris that Napoleon's return from Elba had for the Congress at Vienna.

Out of this confusion; which was marked alike by a grave warning uttered by Marshal Foch on the military side, and by a moving appeal by Prime Minister Clemenceau, alike on the material and on the moral Bide, there has emerged' something which promises to be the solution and cure. President Wilson, clearly confronted with the French appeal, with the facts on which the French apprehension '- is based, has joined with his allies in adopting a programme by which Germany is now to be disarmed, the German Invasion of Poland is to be made impossible, German compliance with the old terms 13 to be insisted upon, and, after three months of delay, Germany on the military side, is to be placed where she can no lflnger resist,

and must comply, and, more than this she can no longer feel, as she has felt In recent weeks, that she can exploit

the difficulties between her allies!

based on principles, for her own selfish and material ends. Allies Ran Great Risk Doubtless before this article is printed the terms of the new armistice will be made public from Berlin. Their exact content is rigidly withheld here at the present moment, but it is officially explained that the ultimate result of the present crisis has been to bring all the Allies together in a com

mon determination to cnecu a uci German renaissance of militarism and

cannot have one. . France, as a matter of life and death, has her whole attention, her whole interest, concentrated

in achieving protection against a new

German attack aa the nation . which alone has an .open frontier towards Germany, and a history of German invasions, of which the laBt is only by

degree the worst We Americans under President Wilson's Impulsion are

concerned primarily with the creation of a League of Nations, to the exclusion of everything else, .convinced, at least in the person of our chief and only representative at Paris, that once the League of Nations is constituted all dangers of war will be abolished; and, secure against any new German attack behind -our three thousand miles of ocean. . ""The British on their part with the Channel giving them a measure of protection, which the French do not have, and with the German fleet abolished, are looking toward the League of Nations as a probable lightening of the enormous burden of empire and a possible association of American tnd English people. Italy is pursuing an egotistic policy, merely concerned in retaining for herself territory claimed by the Slavs, but already guaranteed to her by her Anglo-French . agreements. Italy is therefore frankly prepared to stand with that country or those countries which will support her interest, and there is in Italy no such hatred or apprehension of Germany, until recently her ally, as exists In France. In this situation, " it is obviously difficult in the . extreme to achieve a community of purpose or of action, since actual leadership is not only lacking but impossible, and the man whom accident or personality has given the leading role, namely the President of the United States, has his attention concentrated on one problem to the -exclusion of all others. I do not think that anyone can have lived th rough the last few weeks and not have felt that the war may still be lost Fortunately, as I said

before, in the last analysis there is always the German, with his capacity for restoring the vision of those whom he seeks to destroy, by showing the necessity of community in self defense.. He has done ' it," once more, and in doing it, restored sanity; and the very great necessity now is that

.iVi!m ft ak GermanTwliat has once been regained shall of Prussianism. and to make Germany f

helpless before the countries she has wronged. In sum, it has been decided to do at least what Bhould have been

done in the beginning, nameiy io piace Germany in the position in which her conduct, her purpose for over half a century, and her almost immemorial tradition, require that she should be placed. , , , It must be said frankly that in forgetting Germany and overlooking the practical and material problems and dangers and concentrating all attention upon the theoretical and abstract the conference at Paris has made a grave mistake, and run very real risks. Hope for the future lies in the fact that, recalled by Germany to a recognition of these Bolid and substantial

facts the conference at Paris has reasserted that unity that won the war

in the field and which alone can win it at Paris. We have in fact; been

disquietingly if not dangerously near to losing some considerable part of

the fruits of our victory in the last three months. We have seen a temporary breach opening between France on one hand, and America and Britain on the other. Both America and Britain have now closed the breach by recoenizine. as they alwayB should

recoenized. . the. necessities ot

France and the solemn and inescapable fact that the frontier of civilization remain wherever the French outposts stand, and that if the German comes again, as he now threatens, France will have to bear the first blow and must therefore be fortified against it, since, as the president said eloquently the other day in the French senate, "Danger to France is danger to the whole civilized world." Interests Divided. The greatest difficulty of all at Paris must be clearly understood. When we were fighting the German, all nations associated against it had a common purpose and in the end achieved that unity of command on the edge of destruction which alone saved us. But Germany beaten, the nations allied against her have not a common purpose, and in the very nature of things

Bolshevism is based upon violence, relies upon force, is deaf to right or reason. To force the bowels to move by ' taking castor oil,, pills, ; salts, mineral waters, etc., is to outrage. Nature and "bolshevik" the body. Because, drugs act by produ- - cing.- irritation. ' . Castor oil, for instance, is so obnoxious that the bowels make frantic effort to get rid ' of it. Other medicines, from senna to, salts, provoke action by causing the bowels to try desperately to expel them first, - ' With such remedies therefore the removal of bowel -waste is secondary and wholly incidental. - Hence, the result is not to cure constipation, but on the contrary, to make it worse, more obstinate, harder to overcome.
