There are floors that groan with figs of Smyrna,

here in the creeping eontagion and paralysis

of the tombs of calculation,
and its golden pyramids of gaslight
and its huge inverted shadows,
ships with softly steaming tunnels

ships that have up out of the

Warehouses
By Frederick Mortimer Clapp.

R,Aind the docks and under the bridge
that swings from tower to mighty tower,
black lacauered with the lustre OF the night,
its pslpitatng roadway under the stars,
warehouses
six stored and ntermnabe
warehouses, shattered with six times SIX
arched doors of dull black iron.
The long straight street has neither break nor turn mol
crossing,
and the arched and suffered windows Of the ware
houses
look at the windows over the way,
az if they looked at themselves in endless mirror
1t is more lonely here at night
than it is in Thebes or Karnak.
An outcast silence, like NANCY dog,
prowls through the golden pyramids of light
that stand under sentinel gas lamps,
or sits with its feet in the black bar of the gutter,
at the point of huge inverted
triangles OF shadow
This is the monotony and desolation of trade;
this is the senseess and ghostly
back yard of arithmetic.
Rehiud these innumerrble doors and iron windows,
tier upon tier and aTched and shattered,
holt piled on bolt of the silks of Shanung,
tea from Hanan and tea from Chang Sha
in painted boxes,
oil from the Lucan hills,

Truman beings can be found here and there
i l. who have never written any books about the
War; and it is doubtless this distinguished IT
dwindling minority that reads all those that are
written. The reviewer, doomed both to read and
write is denied all the joys of the division OF labour
He can only deal with limited selection Of the
most important works; and from the small pile be-
fore me select what is necessarily the most impor-
tant the last book by Mr. II. G. Wells.
1t is slender book published by Messrs. Chatto
& Windus at three and sixpence net; it bears the
title of In the Fourth Year, with the subtitle OF
Anticipations of World Peace; and is largely
controversial essay about the League of Nations
1t is one of the most penetrating and persuasive OF
the recent works of Mr.. Wells. and should not be
overshadowed by more snowy ones
1t is the misfortune of q OF genius that his
fctions seem more real than his facts. Stories sound
truer than histories because they sound simpler;
and any one who has revealed In the more hayward
and imaginative Wells may tend to take a book
like this as another chapter of autobiography and
also as a sequel to Mr.. Britling Sees 1t Through.
What Mr.. Drifting Doesn't Do.
Now the chief word to be said about Mr.. Britlng
seeing it through, is that this Is exactly the one
thing Mr. Drifting will not do. n is, in that sense,
the one thing Mr.. Wells will not do. Mr.. Britling
sees it clearly he sees it almost cairvoyantly; he
sees it as in an apocayptic vision; he sees it in
thousand reflected lights of satire, and in blank
white light of scientific wonder We might say,
in a more sceptical sense, that Mr.. Drifting sees
through it; but Mr.. Britling does not and will
not see it through
Al
point of defeating Prussia because it is the main
point. He is an artist, and has hardly the moral
courage to be bore. Time and mood affect him in
a subtle and perilous way; before he has changed
the situation he is trying to change the subject.
Thus the last chapters of Mr.. Drifting were turn
ing into the first chapters of God the Invisible King
who is, by the way, the only God who is avowedly
not King. Thus before the end of the War that
will end War, Mr.. Wells sought the beginning OF
Reasonable Mans Peace among the purely reason

cosmopolitan chaos of Petrograd, not for an in
visible King, hut for an even more invisible re-
public. Mr.. Wells is not in the least vulgar
Paciist; rather he is an inspiring Prophet OF
Peace; but the Pacifst may use the Prophet; just
as the Prussian has used the Pacifst
A United States of Mankind.
His book on the League of Nations is not free
from this fault but it is freer than the Others it
is an exceedingly firm and fine piece of work. Two
passages are conspicuously able and valuable;
thosgh the latter, think, is conclusive than
the former.
One urges that the United States of Mankind
might begin like the United States of America,
not so much by Independent states being overriden,
as by their delegating powers still their own to
central council wou only add the comment
that America was united by something more equal
isingt than an empire or even a federation; by
creed 1t will be necessary to find philosophy
for Europe as dogmaic. and indeed mystical, as
the Declaration of Independence.
The other grappes with great force with the real
modern riddle; which is not so much how to make
foreign politics democratic as how to make any
politics democratic Mr.. Wells makes it an effec-
tive plea for Proportional Representation; but it
really raises the question of all representation.
l am especially grateful to him for picking out one
fashionable fallacy by which the great school of
snobs would turn the failure of parlamentarism
against democracy.
The Neglected Majority.
The vice of modern voting is not that it neglects
the minority. Exactly what it neglects is the
majority; the majority of men who mind their
own business, and do not understand the base bust
ness of electoneering. 1t gives the advantage, as
Mr.. Wells wildly shows, to the specialist trade of
the politician over a thousand more honest trades.
And what parliaments tend to crush is not so
much the private member, b,at rather his pub
lie mandate. Whatever we may think of what is
affectionatey called "P. R., there is nothing but
just contempt and common sense in Mr.. Weiss

Over your thresholds seeps food;
Bright are yoar Entels fecked with blood:

Out at the doors where your first born males
Dripping sag from the piercing nails,
Sound your reveille with dying walls

Lingering zoe Of the crucifed,
Hanging on high like Christ rho died:
Time not to ueep by your crHeifed-

You faunt no helmets to the skies,
Dulling the red rain from your eyes
March, march, Armenia, march,
Blinded, grope to the desert wild,
Tramplng the head of the slaughtered child;
Over the limbs of the maid defled,
March, march, Armenia, march!
Climbing Arahrat's sacred crest
Where came the Ark of Life to rest,
March, march, Armenia, march!
Sounds the last charge: the trurnpets blow;
Waves of steel through your thin ranks flow;
Four thousand feet to the crags below,

When Rome slcD him, it nailed them uride!
Into the heart of the Crucifed.

Gilbert K. Chesterton's London Letter
Mr.. Wells and the League of Nations
htsreer

Nations there is much more to be said than can
say here The briefest but the broadest criticism,
perhaps of his own luminous and attractive scheme
is that the very progress and culture of Germany
involves problem that is more subtle than formal
types of government.
A Democratic Germany.
There is a special truth, but one commonly mis-
understood, in the statement that Germany must
become democratic. And there is special reason
for this meaning much more than Germany ceasing
to be despotic. Germanism does really deny
the Declaration of Independence and sin against
spiritual equality. But it does SO. chiefly, not by
the superiority of Hohenzollerns to Germans, but
by the superiority of Germans to men.
What Mr. Wells seems often to imply is that
when Germany has shed the forms of autocracy and
arstocracy, nothing will divide her from fraternity
with France or America. And what Mr.. Wells
to forget is that what really does divide her
is not something Anticipated, but something very
modern. 1t is not an old religious or romantic
idea, but scientific idea or pseudo-scientifc
idea. 1t is the evolutionary theory of a higher
race; it is revolt against Jeffersonan democracy
after and not before Jefferson. In this sense it
would be possible to make Germans democrats and
still leave them aristocrats They might be
publican as Old Virginia; and still regard Celts
and Latins as niggers.
The Deeper Difficulty.
This is the deeper difficulty ahead of us in max
ing a League Of Nations that it is exactly in the
equality of nations, apart from men, that one
ton disbelieves That so brilliant a thinker does
not fully See this difficulty, while he is quite fair
and frank about most difficulties, is DUE fancy,
to individual bias. Science is his own new and
nd ha1a hoc
instrument of torture. But some who have not his
sublime hobby can show cause for keeping GER
tain vigilance against Prussian materiasm as well
as Prussian miltarism
Mr.. Wells eloquently disdains to follow the pres
ent war with commercial war; but there must
at least be an educational war; a conversion such
as that which once brought the Germans into Chris
tendon. They at their best while the glow.

Germany if that Old Germany could return
