our common enemy over the years
before we could make UP our minds
to fight. Why7
Last Of all there is one thing
would say to the readers OF my arti-
cles, for whom I have been writing
now for many, many months, and
that is that the greatest conc eivahle
misfortune that could befan us all,
Americans. Frenchmen and Britons.
is that the Peace Congress should
create a new atmosphere of n1isun-
derstanding and resentment between
the Allies. We have seen In recent
days q deliberate effort made, for
what reason do not pretend to say,
to excite American resentment
against the British and the French
by rehearsing old scandals and
manufacturing new structures upon
our allies by asserting that the
French and British dislike us, that
we should distrust them, and that
German morals are the dominating
forces with the French and the Brit
ish.
Poisonous Doctrine -
Now this is all false, but it is
more than false, it is poisonous; 1t
leads straight to quarrels with the
French and the British, and quarrels
of our own making. It seems like an
attempt to discredit our Allies in adj
vance, that American sentiment may
be aroused against them in the
event that they decline to accept as
commands American suggestions at
the Peace Conference. 1t is instinct
with the idea that we Americans
have the right to impose our ideas
upon our Allies. and that any differ
.ence of. opinion is proof Of lower
morality on their part.
Such spirit is the beginning OF
discord. It leads straight to the de-
struction Of that friendship which
the war has created between Aneri-
ca and the rest of the civilized ma
lions. It brings us back to the posse
ton Of 1914 and 1915, when we pre-
tended to be a superior people, too
proud to fight" and above the
smoke Of the European struggle. 1t
abolishes all the lessons learned
slowly and bitterly in the paststwo
years and paid for by the best blood
of our youth. 1t is one. thing to go
to Versailles as an equal, with plans
to propose and ideas to suggest,
with principles to advocate Loyalty,
but with readiness to accept the
decisions of those who have made
greater sacrifices and have far more
accurate knowledge OF the bottom
facts of the European conditions. 1t
is quite a different thing to go with
the purpose OF imposing set. OF
principles. fourteen or four, upon our
associates by sheer force OF power,
because we are richer and stronger
than any other nation in the world,
using our great power as club to
force France and Britain to surren.
der their rights to our theories. This
is the great danger increasing as the
days go by.

those drawn into brotherhood by
fighting shoulder to shoulder and
suffering defeat and victory together
The celebration Is OF particular
interest to The Forum from the
fact that those who have pushed
the event concede TO this paper the
original conception OF the celebra-
tion, 1t having originally been sug-
gested in The Forum of August 3rd,
attention of several prominent Ca
nadians, who at once acted upon It,
and who have been gracious enough
to so state, and to also invite The
Forum to be guest of honor at
the great meeting held today in
New York. But regardless Of the
pergonal equation in the matter The
Forum rejoices in the day, and be-
heves the event will mark mile
stone in the brotherly relations be-
tween the American and British
peopIe-and no better thing could
come about.

In this connection a, partial sum
mary Of Britain's part in the war by
The New York Times is Of interest.
The Times says:
It is difficult to be moderate and at
the same time do justice 10 the null
tifarious energy and power which
Great Britain has developed in the
war. The British navy was the
prime guarantee OF the entente, con-
dition precedent Of it's success. It
swept the enemy warships and trade
from the seas. 1t patrolled the sea
roads OF commerce. Because Of it's
protection supplies reached the

PAVING THE WAY.

3 In announcing that the count
for the constitutional amendments
gave "majorities ranging from $4,000
to $4,000 votes" is the morning So
cialist paving the way for a court
decision to the effect that major
ity' having been cast for the amend
Y11ents, the peoples will having been
expressed, the amendments become
law and the constitution is therefore
declared unconstitutional? It is true
the amendments appear to have
majority of the votes cast on those
questions, but the constitution says
they must have a majority Of all
the votes cast at the election" The
returns have not yet shown they
have received such majority. But
what does the constitution amount to

AND RELIABLE ADVER.
Using.

Rupert Blue. surgeon general of
the army, has sent out an appeal
TO newspapers and magazines to re-
fratn from accepting advertisements
from quaek doctors and medical in
stitutions advertising to treat So
called private diseases and for nos
trins along the same line. He says
s this Is mot a movement to clean
UP advertising as SUCH" but "an
emergency measure which investiga-
fion shows to be necessary and jus
titled"
The Forum Is in hearty accord
with such a movement. When the
present management took over The
Forum one of its first acts was to
bar what patent medicine advertis-
rnonts it could without violating con-
tracts, and as those contracts ex-
pired they were not renewed. This
action was taken at the sacrifice of
considerable revenue because the
management felt that not only were
some Of these advertisements not
pleasant reading. but because many
Of them represented nostrums de-
nounced by the medical profession
as absolutely worthless, If not harm
full, and for the further reason that
The Forum does not care to be a
party to Misrepresentation. There
are many valuable preparations
among the so-called patent medi-
cines'' recognized and used by reput-
able physicians. and these do not
come under the undesirable class
but The Forum. not caring to con-
stitute itself a judge in such mat
tiers felt compelled to bar from its
columns all this class of advertising.
The aim of The Forum is to make
its advertising as clean as its news
columns and to be able to guarantee
TO its readers, as near as possible
the reliability Of its advertisers.

THROUGH THE ARCTIC ICE

From the Detroit News.
Capt. Joe Bernard. a daring trader
Of Nome, Alaska, is spending about
Ave years working his way eastward
in HIS boat, the Teddy Bear, from the
Bering Sea through the Northeast
Passage to the Atlantic Ocean.
Reports came from Alaska some
time ago that Bernard was endeav-
Foring to navigate the Northeast Pas
sage. but no details were given.
Vilhialmur Stefansson, the Canadian
Arctic explorer, on his rteurn recent
" from the North confirmed the re-
ports.
Bernard has been out OF touch
with civilization for about two years,
and, according to stefansson, proba-
bly, will not appear in the Atlantic
until 1921. The trader left Alaska
for the Northeastern outposts in 1915
and planned to make the trip In i've
years.
If Bernard succeeds, he viii be
one OF the very few people who have
negotiated the Northeast Passage.
The latest to come through the icy
chapnei was Raold Amundsen in
1906.
Bernard worked along the northern
Canadian coast with some Of Stef-
ansson's party in 1915, the explorer
said. He soon left the explorers and
pressed on into the barren waters to
the east. The next heard from him
may be when he turns UP at some
Northern Atlantic port.

THE CONTRAST.

There fs a striking difference be-
tween the systems of the British
premier, Lloyd George, and Wood
row Wilson. George and his min
listers go. about the country telling
fine people OF his plans with the re-
suit that in the coming election the
voters wifi know just what the pre-
rnier will do at the peace confer
fence If returned to power.
On the other hand the president
exhibits a reticence that has caused
ruction with the senate and I'M
pleasant surnises las to what he in
tends to commit the country to at
the Versailles meeting. On the one
hand the head Of the government
takes the people into his confidence,
but on the other everybody Is left
to ask where do we go from here"
what a comforting thought It IS
tn the middle classes, Of which most
of MS are a part, to view the ultimate
outcome of Socialism as exemplified
by the Bolshevism Of Russia. I'm
der the theory of the powers now
controlling Russia only those who
work with hands are entitled to live,
an others being left to starvation or
at best penury, for once having risen
above manual labor, man in that
country is under the "evil eye" and
gets less consideration than a dog,
when a person argues in favor of
Socialism just ask him what assur-
ance he can give that it's offspring
