such a representative body. Mr.
Roosevelt had advocated it. and refer-

sent representatives there to discuss
international questions. A fomlal
agreement had been adopted relative
to the maintenance of the neutrality of
Belgium, to which our Nation had
given its assent, We were “Mot-ally

Why Did. Mr. Wilson Rtpudlate
That Obligation?
In Mr. Roosevelt's book: “Fear God
and Take Your Own Part." I quote
from the last page.“ the introduc
tion: '
“The principles set forth in this
book are simply the‘principles of
true Americanism, within and
without our own'borders, the prim
oiples which, according to my abil-
ities, l have practiced for the thin

young man. I first began to take
an active interest in American his-
tory and in American political life.“

alone are competent to settle,
among themselves. all the pecu-
liar complex questions, economic
and otherwise. that affect the .1n~
timate relations of neighboring
States, and profoundly affect the
larger question of peace in,. that
part of Europe." ‘
Page 193: "The attitude of
many that the League of Nations
must be trusted to rectify the
mistakes of the Peace Conference
would seem either Quixotic or the
council of despair." . .
These questions are taken as illus-
trations. Shall we also climb on the;
safety valve? ~
settlements are not satisfactory. Pile-1
merits of discontent are just as intense i
as ever. You cannot find a basis of a .
settlement by race determination,
which docs not leave a large minority;
in intense revolt. You cannot give at
out a' bitterprotest' from- another Nun
tion. This has been the basis of true.
ble in‘Europe for hundreds of year-3.; .
The proposed treaty assumes that we,
can now Hilda basis of boundaries and:
maintain it, and we are invited to'
pledge ourselves to this policy. In
other words, to maintain it by force.
Much‘emphasis has been mice! on
the words "External Aggression." but
that is a. distinction without a differ-
enoe. Any minority race will look for
help to a larger State of the same
'race. and. if such a State seeks to ills
tervene, in favor of their racial minor-
ity in another State. it will come um
dcr the head of "External Aggression.‘
This certainly shows the deadly nature
of Article X: the keystone of tho
President's "Arch of Folly."
Is There Then NO Hope?
Yes. if We retire-scholastic meddling
and come back to common sense.
Moreover. the acceptance of such a
program would be the abandonment of
the Amercan plan of State affiliation.‘
for the European plan of self-deter»
minatlon and boundary fixing. with the
attempt to maintain such boundaries
by force, a plan thathas repeatedly
failed in the past. and been the con-‘
i
l
slant source of war.
The first step in the process of
World peace is for groups. of adjoining
Nations to join tom-titer for mutual l:
