They lie and they know that they lie. In the council of the league of nations, Great Britain_has one Vvote and the United States has ome vote” Let us examine this statement and sce just where the Iyie domes ii.

It is plain enough to the people of this country that both their economic and social life have been allowed in some places to Hrift into stagnancy, and other places have been ovérturnea by unwarranted interference by an um- wise administrative government, exer- cising unconstitutional and dictatorial powers. We have had too much gov- ernment in business and not enough business in government. We have spent an_amount éqifal to the cost of the cfvil war because of the atfempt to manage our American railways. HWappily we have already turned our backs on government ownership and operation of railway, shipping and communication lines. To the Eve of Disaster. We have seen an administration bring us to the eve of disaster in which we must all share, first in 1914, and now we are being led toward an- other crisis of stagnancy and unem- ployment. Those who are leading us toward a precipice now ask to be per- petuated. To this plea to remain in power I believe that the answer of the American people is already made. I believe that the American people hold it as a piece of common sense that no man shall be allowed to write a third chapter of the democratic book of destruction. It is common sense for a selfish reason, namely, that we do not want American business, which is mostly small business and everybody’s business, driven onto the rocks. But there is another rea_on of common sense which makes every good Ameri- can draw back from the prospect of our continuing to set a bad example to a perplexed and distracted world. Americans are practical, and not filmy idealists, and I believe I speak for them when I say that we have in this country of ours more regard for ex- ample than for preaching, and a high- er esteem for performance than for mere meddling. Because that is the situation as we see it, can it be any wonder that our opponents have made a_concerted attempt to turn the eyes of the Amer- ican people away from the spectacle of mismanagement of their own affairs to an_extensive discussion of Ameri- ca’s obligation to the other nations of | the world? Sensible men and women will won- der at the assumption of those who, having no practieal program to offer at home, no constructive proposal to make for America, should be, going the length and breadth of the lond proposing that the league of nations as negotiated by the president, shouM be adopted. Upen its face, this pro- gram is not only tragically unwise, but from a practical point of view, wholly impossible. We may as well be utter- Iy frank and say (hat a democratic president even if he were elected, would not be able to hind the Ame: can people not morigage their con- seience and their honor under Article X. for the simple reason that he could not summon sufficient votes in fhej congress of the United States to sup- port his program. 1 ttempt would result in another stalemate, and an unwilling America would find herself just where she has been ever since the bungled negotiations at Paris. Wilsonian League Reject:d. The reison that a democratic presi- dent could do nothing toward putting into effect our = membership in the league of nations, just as it stands, is that, hehind the representatives in | Washirigton, the American people have | rejected membership of that kind. They rejected it long ago; they w! continue their refusal to enter the Paris league as i stands, The pro- posal of our opponents that the Amer- ican people saall accept it as it stands, withéut changes, is an additional ef- frontery, and the American people are justified in asking those who mave it —*“How many times must we say NO?" T have said repeatedly thar, when Lelected, I will immediately suramon the best minds in America, represent- {ing an all American opinion, to consult and advise as“to America's relation- ship o the present association of na- tions, to modifications of it, or substi- tutes’ for it. I have said that 1 will consult the people’s representatives, duly elected, just as the constitution bids me to do. I repeat now that th will be my course, and it 7 by me because it represents the Amer ican sSpirit, because It is (uc¢ . ful and appfopriate course ay president should take, One very good reason why our coun- try can not now specify a plan for our relationship in an association of na- tiofis is because the world's affairs are in a state of flux and a detailed plan today may become useléss tomorrow, and embarrass those who Have com- mitted themselves to carry it out. Would Prevent Wars. Let me say that T am comimitted tor a policy of America doing everything that she can, dcting either: independ- ently, or with other nations, to prevent futfre wars. 1 place only two qualifi- cations upon her contribution. First of an, her contribution should actually be something to prevent war. We must not involve ourselves in a form | ] that XVIL THE Northwe: was a bone of England.

As for k claims on the diécovery of North America by the bots, and in the charter granted to Virginia, in- have said this un ly, is that Ameriea must refain the to ex- ercise her own coneclencé. I have said, over and over again, and I repeat now, that I will not be deceived by the argument that we could agree to the Paris league and then creep out of our bargain te send our boys to Europe at the call of a_super-government. It is true that congress could refuse, diréetly or indirectly, to respond to the world council's call for armed forces, but that would be the repudia- tion of a sacred moral obligation which we would take in _aecepting X. Saech a proposal ranke among the most contemptible ever Presented fo am honest people. I am against it, heart, and mind, and soul. I am in faver of the prevention of war by a means which I believe to be inef- fective at the cost of American inde- pendenf and American honor. The Moral Obligation. Senatsr Knox asked the president this question: g “Su it is perfectly obvious that 6 4n external agg?'essioin against some power, and suppo€e it is perfectly obvious that it can rot be re- pelled except by force of arms would e be under any legal obligation to participate?” The president answered: “No, sir; but we should be under an absolutely compelling moral obligation.” A little later the president answered an inquiry I made, with some sugges- tion of reproval: “A meral obligation is, of course, superior to a legal obl gation, and, if I may say so, of greater binding force.” P Then we really aré called to war, regardless of congress, or we are ready to repudiate an “absolutely compelling moral_obligation,” and stain America with dishonor. It is a strange thing that the presi- dent and those who desire to succeed him, with the adoption of his inflexible and lost program, should oniy be able to consider international relations in terms of war. I said on August 28, speaking of international relationships in peace: “If, in the failed league of Versailles, there can be found machinery which the tribunal can use properly and ad- vantageously, by &ll means let it be appropriated. I would even go furth er. 1 would take and combine all that is good and excise all that is bad from both organizations. This statement is broad “enough to include the sugges- tion that if the league, which has heretofore riveted our considerations, and apprehensions, has Dbeen so en- twined and interwoven into the peace of Europe, that its good must be pre- served in order to stabilize,the peace of that continent, then it car be amen- ed or revised so that we may still have a remnant of the world's aspira- tions of 1918, builded into the world's highest conception of helpful coopera- tion in the uitimate realizations.” 1 make the suggestion to the Amer- ican people, and through them to my { opponents, ghat it is better to build up peace through justice than to promeote | the alliance of armed forces is better to promote understanding and foster common interest, and to seek friendly understanding, .aye, to establish common council and turn the light of world opinion upon develop- ing controversy, than to seek government and _the suppre war by force. We picture the temple of world justice rather than the world’s armed camp of war.
