October 29.—Moral forces at last have come to grip with the material and the result is ‘awaited with confidence. If France had re- Jected the appeal for a conference on reparations she would have become morally isolated. Publication of the correspondence between London and Washington cre- ated profound satisfaction in London. Secretary Hughes' statement was re- garded as wise, just and enormously helpful, and it was anticipated that its effect on France would be most tmportant. Last Chance for Europe. The conference is the last chance to save Europe from utter wreck. It commits no power, but it will give light where darkness now relgns, and its moral effect will be declsive. It Will set out to ascertain facts—first, what Germany has paid; second, how much she can pay, and, third, how she must pay. The appeal to M. into a conference was most friendly. Poincare to comw and save FEurope impressive, cordial and But the intimation that, in case, Great BEritain conld not and by and consen. to the destruc- tion of Germany was firm and ex phatic. Fremier Baldwin had the ‘definiie Impreesion as a result of his intar- view with M. Poincare in Paris that if passive = resistance were with- drawn the rigor of the Ruhr occu- pation would be relieved. Instead the pressure has been Intensified. The view gains ground that the French realize notv that the Ruhr ad- venture has killed “the —reparations goose and that all that remains is to make sure that Germany is de- stroved past the possibility of re- covery. That apparéntly is the line on which the coming eléctions. which govern everything. are to be fought. Results of Polley. Can the civilized world consent to look on while this tremendous crini¢ which condemns Europe to rufh and eternal war, is consummated? Is Mv. Polncare, in order to win an election, to be permitted to make millions of starving victims for England and America to feed and keep alive or leave to perish? That is the question involved in the problem of the proposed conference It is the only expedient by which Eu Tope can hope to escape a irag dy hout parellel in_ human annals. It s the only expedient. also, by which any hope of securing repara- tions remains. Mr. Baldwin's speech Thursday night_confirmed the impression that Gen. Smuts spoke with the authority of the government when he attacked the Polncare policy and announced a robable conference. Then came pub- fcation of the correspondence dis- closing Lord Curzon's invitation to Secretary Hughe: Apparently the {mperial confer- ence has forced the hand of the Brit- ish government and has helptd ths premier overawe his “die hard” fac- tion. Gen. Smuts has made a strong impression on hLis overseas colleagues, and undoubtedly the im- perial conference favored a strong stand against the French policy. Aus tralia, South Africa and Canada all are suffering from destruction of their Furopean trade and they realize that there is no hope of recovary while Poincare keeps a stranglehold on the German jugular.
