Europe certainly understands our position with reference to the League of Nations and the refusal of our people to join it, by this time The courtesy of according the United States an op- portunity to know first hand of matters and things in which we are concerned, is not looked upon as an effort to induce us to enter fhe league. We are fully and firmly committed-in that matter. At the same time there are the ordinary international obligations which we must discharge, if we would remain on terms of friendship with the other nations of the world. It would, indeed, be an unusual situation if the most important nation of them all would retire within its borders and refuse association with nations with which it has lately been allied in war and has trade relations involving millioris anhually. Aside from these things, in which we have an ac- knowledged and rightful interest, the American peo- ple have never assumed a position of denial of friend- ly assistance in solving after war ‘or any other inter- national problems whose object was the general well- being. ; There nothing to criticise and there is every thing to recommend unofficial representation, in fact there will be many things in which we will actually be compelled to participate regardless of the League of Nations, or who is or who is not members. ; We believe, we can safely trust President Harding and Secretary Hughes to fully guard American in- terests in any international dealings we may under- take. Several members of the senate take altogether too narrow a view of our foreign relations. Senators Reed and Borah may be credited with sincerity but Senator LaFollette may be dismissed as a grand- stander. —_——_—__o________ MERELY A PROPAGANDIST.

In this city the realty committee asserted that ‘the pres- | ent retail price of anthracite is uneconomic and really beyond the ability of the ordinary consumer to pay.’ Since the admitted speculation and profiteering of last fal! and retailers are all distrusted. The industrial outlook is ;=?ecertain and money is scarce. No man knows what zis present rate of consumption is, and the stocks on hand cannot be accurately measured. “It is not enough to preach increased buying and storage to railways, factories and Households. Con- gress should pass legislation to give us constant light | where we now have constant obscurity. The only cer- tain facts in the coal situation are those of produc- tion. We know that to April 16 we had mined 115,- 600,000 tons of soft coal, against 153,500,000 in the same period last year. If we knew just what profits are all along the line, just how light or how heavy i: | consumption, and just what margin of safety stocks | offer, we could be sure of intelligent action.

Genersl Pershing is urging the >eune msn cf the country to attend the citizens’ training camps to be held at various points during the summer months un- der direction of the war department and thus con- tribute toward the building up of a trained citizen reserve organized and prepared to meet any emer- gency that arise. The training secured, aside from the actual military knowledge gained, is valuable from. a physical stand- point and worth all the time and attention given. The ger-.rl says: “Our positicn and influence in world affairs are not measured by our wealth and population nor by our free and liberal form of government, but by our purpose to maintain the high principles of justice and humanity upon which our institutions are founded, The fulfilment of this purpose depends upon our readiness to defend its integrity. “Our traditions are opposed to the maintenance of a large standing army but we have persistently failed to train our citizen soldiers in time of peace and have waited until war was declared before making any move to that end. While recognizing the principle that every citizen may be called as a soldier we have never emphasized the obligation of the. individual to], prepare himself to serve his country. Yet that is a debt to the country that falls upon afl of us. “From a purely military standpoint our policy should provide, first, a permanent military establish- ment large enough to guard against sudden attac! second, a force sufficient to meet our international obligations, particularly on the American continen third, such force as may be necessary to meet our in- ternal requirements; fourth, a trained citizen reserve to meet the emergency of war, “By providing such a course of instruction you are affording the young man an opportunity for develop- ment which he can get in no other way,” he continued. “It is especially needed among our alien population, a large percentage of whom are illiterate. All these benefits have been bestowed upon the young men who composed our forces during the war, who, as a result have become our most patriotic citizens.” PEE LEE LETT OP ERS Te WHEN WILL IT END? There never was a time in the history of the world, so far as history discloses, when crime ran so ram- pant as it does at present. It is one continual round of murder, suicide, robbery, on down through the calendar of lesser crimes, to graft, marital disagree- ments and moral rottenness with which the daily press fairly reeks and causes wonder, where the whole thing is to end. Has the world gone craz; or simply gone to the wild bunch. If such a situation should break out in one portion of the world, not much would be thought of it; but the whole world seems affected. Conti- nental Europe, the British Isles, the United States, are all on the moral toboggan and headed straight for perdition unless the wave is checked, or people core back to their senses. Sodom and Gomorrah in their palmy days were mere pikers in comparison with almost any modern community for wickedness. It would seem that somebody, somehow, somewhere would rise up and say or do something that would turn the world back from headlong destruction to the path of righteousness. ef A JACKSONIAN WAIL. A -writer in the New York Times complains that Mr. Harding has appropriated 2» Democratic battle cry, about the only thing that party had left, and he doesn’t seem cheerful about it. He wails thus: “We cry from the depths! Our Republican con- querors are growing over-insolent in victory. They have raided our sanctuary and stolen our shibboleth. We fondly thought that ‘By the Eternal’ was safely ours, an occult utterance for traditional Democrats exclusively, used by us on January 8, during off ad- ministrations, to fortify our souls. Now even that innocent exclu.@veness is denied us. “For all indignities but this there have been miti- gating thoughts. The enemy stole millions of our voters, but we looked at the quality of his thousands who deserted to us and we found comfort. He an- nexed Tennessee and Oklahoma, but we said, ‘You may take Alsace and Lorraine, but in our day of glory we shall go to the Rhine, as we did in 1912 and 1916.’ He adopted our Wilsonian policy in general, with which reversal of attitude we remain due adop- tion in detail. But for this pirating of our sacred swear-word there is no balm. We mourn our blue- blooded, pedigreed phrase wandering in the Great Etymological Desert, and we think with sadness on its forced companionship with barbaric ‘Normalcy’ and ‘Hospitalization.’ Will it survive the contamination? | “We fear it will come sneaking home some day with a tin can tied to its tail. That will be the fin- lishing blow. Our foe will have accomplished his fell | purpose, the annihilation of our race. For a self-re- specting Democrat would apostatize rather than swear by the ‘Eternalcy.’ “Vae victis!” Maire THE THRIFT OF PRANCE, The Chicago Journal of Commerce notes: “France was dreadfully torn by the war, terribly depleted fi- nancially by its expense. But what do we see now? Two years and a half after the armistice her people are able to invest 10,000,000,000 francs a year in | bonds! | “There’s a lesson in thrift, in saving, in resources, | for the whole world! If we had anything to compare | | with it in America our prosperity would be the mar-| | vel of all ages, our money power almost beyond com.| putation. But France has not been spending billions | for luxury since pence came to her. She’s been sav-| ing her sous while we have enjoyed 5 i | dollars.
