China making war on Japan for the recovery of Shantung and of the United States being forced by Arti cle 10 to send an army and navy to help Japan, is interesting but ab- solutely false. For these reasons: Article 10 of the covenant says that in case of a dispute (China and Japan in your case) they must submit it firet to the council for arbitration, “and they agree in no case to resort to war until three months after the award by the ar biters or decision of the council.” In article 13 the members of the league agree to carry out whatever award is made and that in case of failure to do #0, “the council shall propose what steps should be taken.” Article 5 says that all decisions and awards of the council shall be UNANIMOUS. The use of armed force in @ dispute such as you have outlined could only be adopted with the consent of America as a mem ber of the league, and then only with the approval of congress. For congress, which is the only power in this country authorized to make | war, and is the only body that could give America’s approval. ‘There's your theoretical case, QUOTES HOOVER ON LEAGUE Il admit with you that the league won't put an immediate end to war for all time But it goes a long way toward bringing permanent pence. And until Mr. Harding ean pro- duce some substitute that looks any- where near half as good (and he has admitted he can't) I'm for the man who i# for it. That means Jimmie Cox Just for a chaser, read these words of Herbert Hoover about the} league, uttered at Leland Stanford University, October 3, 1919: “To mo every line of the cov enant (the league of nations) is the complete negation of militariem. During the course of negotiations in Paris that fact stood out with re gard to the league. Opposition to it there arose entirely from the representatives of the old militaristic regimes and from the reactionaries in the world in general. They had the vision to see and even openly to state that it would mean the ulti- self material. waist. the world THE Praised and espoused #0 | few Deltaviland planes of a type din | ers to vote for Jimmie Cox carded by the allies and fit only for observation purposes, were sent to France, The Yankee flyers called these planes "flaming coffina.” be- | cause they were faulty In construc | tion and very apt to burn up At the battle of the Argonne there were no Yankee battle planes to pro- | tect the boys of the Plst divinion. ‘The German planes were there aplenty.
