We were the hope of the world, who had fought a good fight to! make the world safe for democ-| racy. We had made the world safe for democracy. We had es- tablished democracy in all the countries of Europe. We were needed at the council table to furnish the lead and maintain the balance which would make those {democracies successful and _pros- perous;.and to lead the League of | Nations: ri But w ened 46 the cries of isolati “and, political seeke: profit-mongers that |we abandon Etirope to her fate. I We levied protective tariffs which would’ have been appropriate to a {debtor nation, but which are al- ways disastrous when maintain- ed by a creditor nation. We stayed out of the League which he had _ suggested and jhelped to found, and even held jaloof from the World Court | which had been created to rectify | the inevitable injustices of a peace written while rancor still reigned. We organized the American jhemisphere in effort to transact |a one-way business at the ex- pense of the pro: ted European countries. We insisted upon re- | payment of the war debts with | gold when the peoples had no gold, and refused payment in the fonly way in which they could ;pay us—by working for us, pro- |ducing for us, and shipping us \their products. Thus we forced |them to the humiliation of ap- |parent default of obligations, and many among us taunted them as } | defaulters. | Thus we weakened the League {of Nations and made it impos- ‘sible for it successfully to func- tion; and having administered this political wound, we proceed- ed to execute the economic death stroke by pressure upon our vic- torious allies so that they could only react by a _ corresponding pressure upon the peoples. And to top it all, we’ adopted an attitude of constant | criticism and non-assistance to the European statesmen who were trying desperately to teach the ways of democratic government | to peoples used to monarchy. Thus, having made the world safe for democracy, we destroyed | democracy in Europe. Out of the misery which policy cause Hitler and lesser dictators were inevitable.
