LENROOT'S POSITION

AS we see It Senator Lenroots adj
dress in Milwaukee, celebrating his
attitude toward the League of Ma
lions, offers nothing new CT consoling
to the friends of organized world
peace. To be effective such league
must be based on give-and-take be-
tween the contracting powers. Len
roots idea seems to be that Ameri-
ca will take, but will not give. His
proposal reads to us like d proclama-
ZION ratifying the League as between
the other powers, but creating to-
ward it, for America, the attitude Of
a potential volunteer whose action is
to be subject to the limitations Of
slow legislative procedure under con-
stantly varying national political add
ministration. To us Lenroot seems
to stand for a selfish Americanism,
blind to it's own interest in and re-
Eponsibility for world conditions with
which it's own welfare is extricably
interviewer. In the covenant. i'm
perfect in detail but sound in basis,
the nations were mutually to agree to
certain concessions and undertake
ings We are asked to do nothing sub
stantial that all others would not be
bound to do. AS whole the proposed
reservations would relieve the United
States of most of the essential con-
cessions and undertakings. Were the
other powers in turn to adopt our
reservations, excepting as name the
League would become non-existent.--

No wonder she wants TO stay IN

COAL SHORT
| WORLD over

r. B. Towle has received copy OF
Screenings" published in Milwaukee,
which says:
The worlds coal shortage amounts
to approximately 62.463. 900 tons, ac-
cording to the estimate Of the Ship
ping Board.
1--WE have figured that the total
amount of coal available for export in
countries other than the United States
is 97,723,000 tons; that the total needs
of all the countries are approximately
1881 ,00O,' said H. Y. Saint, head
of the export department of the Ship
ping Board THAT leaves a total to
be supplied of 81,788,0O0 tons. Now
subtracting the preWar exports of
the United States, 1925, 900 tons,
leaves an additional amount to be
supplied of 62.463. 900 tons.
This shortage, we figure, includes
48,30O, 900 tons in Germany. Germany
loses a large portion of her coal terri
tory and, at the same time, burdens
of q, O00, 900 tons of exports are i'm

Taking those things into considera-
ton, we have made up that total We
figure that Canada will need 1885,
900 tons. China needs 3,135,000 tons;
Belgium, 10000 900 tons; the Neither
lands, 100000 tons.

the falling down OF the productin

porting coal nations before the war and
