We on this side of the Atlantic may sti” “lew with more or less suspicion the news from the other side, especially the English dispatches. Recently the Amer- | ican state department felt compelled, in view. of cable- | grams widely published in American newspapers, to) make the following statement: [Worthy ofthe Badge He Wears | 3s John | ctv wer | badge that money could not purchase from him. , | It is made from an old fashioned brass ia alone been involved | (inon, known in its time.as a aix- pounder, removed mond during the closing days of the Buchanan administration, sometime between tion of Lincoln. the early union forces in many of the battles in the eastern theater of war and was finally brought to the western field of action where it was put out of commission at the battle of Shiloh and captured confederates retreated after that hard fought conte ing been r | slot which plece was later shipped to Washing- ton where it re: the appeal of the Grand Army of the Republic a number of the obsolete and useless pieces of artillery used in the war of t the Gra rolled into sheets and stamped into the famt seen on of that war. In view of a dispatch of The Associated Press, with respect to the renewal of the Anglo—Japanese al liance, to the effect that ‘it is understood. that the/| state department has been kept fully informed of the) plans of the British government and that it, has been | given assurance that in the renewal of the treaty inclusion of anything inimical to American right,’ it not informed with respect to plans of the British gov- ter.” When the Associated Press correspondent in Lo don asserted that “it is understood that the state < partment has been kept fully informed” he undoubt- edly had received such information from some offi- 1 source. The correspondent of a. news agency with the high standing of the Associated Press must also have had official authority for his statement that the state department has been given assurances that} |in a renewal of the Anglo-Japanese treaty every pre-| caution will be taken to guard against the inclusion) of anything inimical to American right. It appears, therefore, that misleading statements) are given out from official sources in Great Britain for by tne pr e a the existence of peace between the United States and the governments of Germany and Austria-Hun- gary The long and bitter contest between the senate of| ed States and former Seatac Wilson with fere: option o! the Versailles treaty in ended d into history. During the interim) The Versailles treaty} as been repudiated, the president who helped frame) it has suffered a like fate, the people have risen in| their majesty and swept into power the opposition| party by a preference, the like of which has never} n known in the history of the republic. At the ame time the action of the people carried with it ap- jroval of the senate’s action and authorization to the new administration to proceed with the policy it is now accomplishing. ot act by the congress is the first step, in| ato and much history has been made. The formal the program. It sets in motion many new conditions and influences. Numerous of them are present in} bold relief, others will arise with the passage of time| and the shaping of events. Among other things the peace declaration accom- plishes is the automatic suspension of the war pow- ers of the president, some twenty in number, includ- ing the drastic laws empowering the mobilization of industries, transportation systems and the entire re-| sources of the nation. Diplomatic relations. wil] be resumed and the presi- dent will set about the negotiation of the terms of a treaty establishing future relations in all respects with our late enemies. ‘There are two courses open to the president in ne- gotiating the treaty. One of these would be the ne- gotiation of a new treaty with Germany, which would protect American interests and mark the formal re- storation of peace time relationship. The other would} be the resubmission of the Versailles treaty, with the| understanding that the senate should, by amend- ments and reservations, reject the portions to which there is objection, including particularly the League | of Nations covenant. When the president and the secretary of state get the treaty making machinery into operation they will face the most intricate problems this government has yet faced’ in its history. Woven into the interna- tional situation are two old treaties which may be| found to be still effective. One of these was ratified June 11, 1799, and the other May 1, 1828. Probably the first question to be taken up in con- nection with these old treaties, is what effect did the confederation of German state of the empire have upon them? Under the terms of Article 27, of the treaty of amity and commerce concluded on July 11, 1799, be- tween the United States and Prussia, the convention was to remain in force only “during the term of ten years from the exchange of ratifications.” 22 tion was automatically terminated. On May 1, 1828, at Washington, Ludwig Niederstetter, the Prussian charge d’affaires, and Henry Clay, the American sec- y of state, signed a treaty of commerce and navi- ccording to Article 15 of this treaty the was to “continue in force for twelve years, | from the day of the exchange of the ratifi-| nths before the expiration] er of the high contracting parties | nounced, by an official notification to the ention to arrest the operation of said ll remain binding for one year beyond | expiration of the twelve{ milar notification, what-| e place.” } specifically de- high contracting parties it ly in operation. of 1828 of this tice’ makes idle n time be voided rpose of such a pro-| h a way out of the! anged circumstances, | the denunciation of should an excellent example of the Russian treaty of 18 In the discussion that gre nia Fleischman ¢ out of the sinking of} d the action of the German commander and nt d that th ~eaty of 1828 was obsolete, and no | er bindir ever a review of the repeated declaratior the United States and Germany t up to the outbreak of both governments held it still ope the fact that since the conclusion of one of the contracting states ha mental political changes was not invalidated the treaty, ce of the United States government was of Pri - Apparently it held 4 ration into another, whi onality still retains a ter. r of action ove i und | ove: | such laughter is achieved. | People it appeals only from those depths. the information of the United States. “The inaccu- racy was so great and the subject matter so impor- tant that the department of state felt it necessary for its own protection and for the guidance of the Amer- ican people to issue a denial. If, as seems an inevit- able inference, British authorities are thus spreading untrue propaganda in the United States, this will not| be the first instance of the kind. Moreover, if further] explanation in this particular instance, to which the country is entitled and which it will certainly expect, discloses that British authorities have been deliber- ately resorting to deception, the people of America will find a way of manifesting their resentment. It must be admitted that the United States, owing to the delinquency of some-of its officials, has not: always dealt entirely with frankness in the perform- ance of its undertakings. When the treaty of peace with Germany had been completed and a treaty of al- liance for purposes of defense was negotiated betweén Great Britain, France and the United States, the con- cluding paragraph of this second treaty provided that this treaty would be submitted to the senate at’ the same time as the treaty of peace. Notwithstanding that explicit proyjsion, Mr. Wilson did not submit! the of defense alliance at the same time that he submitted the treaty with Germany. Neither did he inform the country of the existence of such a treaty until forced by public discussion. While this breach of faith on the part of a high American official must be admitted with no small de-| gree of humiliation yet it can be said in defense of the people of the United States that at the first op- portunity they repudiate the official who had thus brought discredit upon their government. If officials} in Great Britain have been guilty of misleading the peoples of that nation and the United States they should be rebuked in a manner no less decisive than that by which the people of the United States rebuked their chief executive. There can be no satisfactory relations between two great world powers unless ther® is frankness and sincerity in international communi- cations. ———— The “doll” in business seems doomed.

Writing in his peculiar strain, in the North Amer-| ican Review, Max Beerbokm touches upon a subject that is close to all of us. Life, would indeed be dull if there were no laughter in the world. No humor, whose saving grace gets the average person over many a tight place. If all the world were gloom, who would care to tarry long in it? The writer thus! speaks: “As to what is most precious among the accessories to the world we live in, different men hold différent| opinions. There are people whom the sea depresses, whom. mountains exhilarate. Personally, I want the ‘a always—some not populous edge of it for choice;| and with it sunshine, and wine, and a little music: My friend on the mountain yonder is of tougher -fiber and sterner outlook, disapproves of the sea’s laxity and instability, has no ear for music and no palate| for the grape, and regards the sun as a rather ener. vating institution, like central heating in a house. What he likes is a gray day and the wind in his face; crage at a great altitude; and a flask of whisky. Yet I think that even he, if we were trying to determine from what inner sources mankind derives the great- est pleasure in life, would agree with me that only the emotion of love takes higher rank than the emotion of laughter. “Both these emotions are partly mental physical. It is said that the mental oympten cones are wholly physical in origin. They are not the less ethereal for that. The physical sensations of laugh- ter, on the other hand, are reached by a process whose starting point is in the mind. They are not the less | ‘gloriously of our clay.’ There is laughter that goes so far as to lose all touch with its motive, and to ex- ist only, grossly, in itself. This is laughter at its best, A man to whom such laughter has often been granted may happen to die in a workhouse. No matter. -I will not admit that he has failed in life. Another, who has never laughed thus, may be buried in West. minster Abbey, leaving more than a million pounds eth ed. What then? I regard him as a failure. ‘Nor does it seem to me to matter one jot how u Humor may rollick i planes of fantasy or in depths of silliness.
