Speaking on the sixth anniversary of America’s declaration of war on Germany, former Justice Clarke sald: Answers Se: King. “It is reported that Senator King of Utah, speaking for the democratic party ‘nanagement, says the league * /of nations ia not to be an issue in the ‘presidential campalgn next year. We ahall see! “The suspicion grows that the churghes and women’s clubs and the reat newspapers will have some- hing to say about that, and that the farmers and labor unions will have something to say about it, and 1 Promise the senator that our 4,000, Young soldiers and the League of Na- ‘tlons Non-partisan Assoclation wil have a great deal.to s bout 1t.” A simllar note was ~ scunded by Oscar S.

Justice Clarke declared that more ‘Pressingly now than ever before did “the fate of the world hang upen this @ecision” of American ent® into the league. Besides serving as a warning to Turkey, Germany and Russia against disturbing the peace, he deciared, America’s influence In the league was the sole agency that could Keep Eng- 1and and France "in amity and peace.” Polnts to Fremch Fear. “Britain is a trading nation snd must have markets or perish.

There are but four obligations of importance {n the entire covenant of the league, he declared—that of mili- tary support of an attacked co-mem- ber, as provided in mluhl X, .'t‘ldl those pledging no aggression un the cause of disagreement had been lald befors the league council, pro- viding for limitation of armament wnd providing for economic boycotts against violators of the league cove- nant. “Whatever may have beey thought of this article X three years ago, it is much 100 late to talk nonsense about It now.
