OUR FOREIGN POLICY HANDICAP The great difficulty that con- jfronts nations that deal with the | United States is that after our | Chief Executive has negotiated a treaty, or agreement, it must be submitted to a -politically-minded Senate for acceptance. Naturally, other nations, able to make binding commitments through their governments, hesi- tate to. tie their hands. The ex- perience of the Allies, after the World War, has left a memory that reminds them not to count too heavily upon the commitments of an American. administration. The House of. Representatives approved by its Foreign, Affairs states. that 'Congress favors “the creation of appropriate international machin- ery with power. adequate to es- tablish and maintain a just and lasting peace and the “participa- tion of the United States” there- in, ‘ This resolution, if passed by the Congress, at least records the nation in favor of something. It should be regarded as binding up- on subsequent officials but there is no telling what any American Congress will do in the future. The isolationists will hardly fight the proposal in the midst of war but when the fighting is over they will be out in full force, attempt- ing to hamstring the organization of the nations of the world. An example of the difficulties that confronts the world ‘is seen Britain and Russia. These nations have a treaty that runs for mam years after.the war. What they will require, in the way. of pro- tection against another war, will be greatly affected by what they can expect from the United States. If the United States stands aloof from the world the British and the Russians will rely exclusively up- on their armed strength. They will probably make it their business to keep Germany under tight con- trol, There willbe no tendericy whatever to ease the bonds in the hope of . promoting better rela- and assume our share of world re+ sponsibility, they may be willing to take some risks in the hope of developing a better world. BILLIONS FOR THE NAVY Congress is busy with the ap- propriation bills which provide the funds for governmental ex- penditures during the fiscal year which begins on July Ist. Na- turally most of the money to be spent by the United States in the next twelve months relates to the prosecution of the war. : Congress has provided approxi- mately $30,000,000,000 for the Navy and is expected to vote more thian $70,000,000,000 for the Army. gums can, be Ae the Army got $269,000,000 and the Navy. $40,000,000, a The naval.appropriation cavers all types of vessels, including the construction of craft ranging from ‘ Apr exports amounted to sixty-one per cent, industrial ma- terials twenty-four per cent and food and other agricultural prod- bie 1 ‘ ate the most ithpor ‘sitigle ‘item of Lend- carriers to landing barges and 1,- 600,000 tons of auxilary ships. ‘General construction gets $6,000,- {900,000, one-fourth for armor, ar- mament and ammunition and one- ‘fifth for the emergency construc- | tion of 1,799 vessels for which ap- propriations in part have already “| been made. production , “reached the un- Naval aircraft to the number of: 27,652 are covered by an appro- priation of nearly $5,000,000,000, with an additional billion in con- tract authorizations, Incidentally, nearly one-third of the huge Army appropriation will go to the Air Force.

After Miss Aubrey had had two years in Hamilton College in Lexing- ton, Ky., the two were married and lived in White Sulphur Springs.
