WILSON'S WEASEL WORDS

President Wilson in one Of his re-
cent addresses made light OF the mer-
zee that threatens the industrial and
business life Of this country when tho
European war closes. at is predicted,
he said. that after this war Is over
Europe will in some way overwhelm
the United States by her economic
power. I wonder that any thinking
men can entertain an opinion OF THAI
sort" It is surprising that any man
of the intelligence Of Wilson can speak
so frivolouSly Of a serious subject. Ia
the same address Mr.. Wilson also en-
pressed the thought that nobody can
| tell what Is going to happen and thero-
fore can make no preparations till ii
does happen. If that were true, ii
would be useless to build navy until
war is upon us. or 70 lock the stable
before the horse is stolen.
The time for argument over that
question has passed, but we cannot
let the opportunity Of confoundng the
President with one Of his own ap-
pointees, a Democrat and chairman
OF the Federal Trade Commission,
who, upon the same day Mr.. Wilson
made the above statements, in a pub
lie address in New York refuted them.
While the President was expressing
his assurance that the destruction Of
war has been so successful that he
materials Of economic living have been
destroyed upon a tremendous scale,
and that, therefore, there is no dan

Peace among the nations is often
interpreted as a condition which can
be suddenly secured The laying
down OF arms. the Silencing Of artil-
lery, the drawing up Of 4 treaty, the
signing Of name, is thought to be
and TO mean peace. The error is not
unnatural But it is an error. Peace,
as a permanent condition. is not a
suddenly-made vision. 1t can not be
secured by any mechanical formula,
or machine-like process.
Peace, as a lasting possession OF
the nations, rests on at least three
foundations.
One cornerstone is international
Justice. Justice among the nations
represents the rights, and the ObscrV-
ance Of the duties. OF nations. Many
wars arise from injustice, either in
timated. demanded, or eXacted. y ma
ton, under certain conditions, has no
alternative. 1t must fight or cease to
be a nation. BY not fighting, it COM
nits suicide. Belgium, two years ago,
was obliged to fight, unless 1t were
willing to deny itself as nation. 1t
may be difficult to determine the
nature Of justice In any particular in
stance, although the cases are less
frequent than one might believe. But
the endeavor Of one to learn justice.
and the desire to observe justice.
would save most nations from most
wars
