When the time came it went fortt

its word and wayers not from the
faith it has announced. that old basis
can never come back. and man in a

1t is true, what these sympa-

There is nothing to talk about. We

BY cHARLEstEDWARD RUSSELL

BY scHARLEsfEDWARD RUSSELL
The United States, the savior OF
the world. the restorer of imperiled
democracy!
How often we have heard that said
since the war began. How many OF
us have never taken it seriously mol
stopped to understand what it really
means.
They understand in France.
] have letter from Paris about
that and it gives a rather different
impression ofathe feelings f the
French people from any you may
have gained from news dispatches.
You have read how the American
flag was displayed everywhere in
France and everywhere was cheered
with boundless enthusiasm, how the
French government from the presi-
dent down gave us the Warmest vel
come, and what affecting tributes to
this country were printed in the
French press.
But this letter tells me that all this
did not begin to express the profound
emotions of the French people, for
nothing could adequately express
them.
They were touched by the thought
of America and France once more
side by side fighting for a great
cause, touched by the expressions Of
American sympathy, touched by Pres
ident Wilson'S wonderful address,
which has become the French bible
of democracy. And still there was
something else regarded by French
statesmen. thinkers and skilled OBJ
servers as the most wonderful Of all.
r 1T WAS THIS, THAT THE UNI
TED STATES WAS UNSELFISH.
About it's aims there was no faint
of the sordid or the mean. 1t had
no territories to defend and desired
none to grab. It was aloof from all
the hlsts that have for centuries ami
mated all the governments of Europe.
For reasons ABOVE anything ever
known in European history it had en-
tered upon a war in which it had
absolutely nothing to gain.
Also, one other thing.
Since the time when France,
threatened with destruction by
the German hordes, was driven
against all her hopes to take up
arms to save her life, the United
States was the only nation that
had entered the war without bar
gaining or stipulation.
With every other government on
both sides it had been necessary to
dicker, to make arrangements, to Of
fer inducements or at least to give
material reasons. ,.s.4
With the United States not word
was exchanged. It asked for moth
ing, suggested no terms, limited at
no bargain, offered no conditions.
