Just 20 months ago diplomats representing Great Britain, Japan and the United States agreed to curb the building of warships for a period of 10 years, and to destroy such of their Vessels as were not deemed necessary for ordinary pur- poses of national def During these 20 months the governments of these nations, together with the gov- ernments of France and Italy, have placed their stamp of approval on this agreement Expert opinion on the pré actical results of the ship- Scrapping program is not unanimous. M believe that capital ships have become obsolete and that their limita- tion will in no way affect the probabilities of future wars Submarines, airplane carriers and hydroplanes will be the instruments of future naval battles, these critics con- tend. Perhaps they are right no more praiseworthy gesture toward eliminating temptations to make war, It may be that this toward peace is only a short step, but it is in the right direction. May it not be foll lowed by other steps. Which mean the curbing of submarines and hydroplanes and land armaments? Simultaneously with the ratification of the naval treaty, the four-power pact by which Great Britain, the | nited States, France and Japan, Legg the peace of the Pacific, likewise came into bein The Anglo-Japs alliance, an agreement eataioine possibilities of con- flict, thus passed out. It is true that “foreign entanglements” are involved in both the naval treaty and the Pacific treaty, but without reciprocal agreements with the nations of the earth, the Wnited States cannot hope to promote the spirit of world peace. After all is said and done, perhaps the most important Service of the two new treaties will be their use as step- Ping-stones for the United States in its timid turn to of moil, a step has just been The three greatest naval peaceful destruction of 59 Ase, ny records the step Nevertheless, history steps | world leadership.

The president feels that the prisoners have already received severe punishment. Whether this means that he plans to wipe the slate clean, and grant amnesty to all, or whether he will con- tinue the policy of President Harding in yielding, bit by bit, remains to be seen. Reasonable clemency may mean anything, but it is to be hoped that President Coolidge will no longer refrain from granting complete liberty to those individuals who failed to glorify war, and who fell into the jurisdiction of mania-infested courts.
