Nevertheless would be Interesting to know upon what foundation Mr, Taft has based his ex- pressed hope “that President Harding will ultimate- ly conclude it to be wiser to enter the League with the Lodge reservations than to attempt to carry out the same purpose through a new form of associa- tion.” One thing is sure: Mr. Taft’s hope i$ in irrecon- cilable conflict with the Borah-Johnson demand that the United States be kept out of League.
