An Imaginary Dilemma

Our neighbor The Times, discussing
the Senates relation to the combination
of peace treaty and worlds constitution
1t is proposed to go through the motions
of submitting for ratification, rather in
discreetly lets out of the bag cat whose
existence had been vehemently denied.
Says The Times:
The Senate can accept or reject it, It
cannot, in any true sense, amend it. In
form 1t can make amendments, but they
will not be real amendments The &C
ceptancc of the treaty with amendments
would merely mean that the Senate re-
jected the treaty unless the nations max
ing 1t should consent to reconvene and
accept the proposals of the Senate. In
other words the Senate would be sitting
as a court of appeal over the nations of
the world, sending the case back to them.
and ordering them either to abandon it
or reconstitute it as ordered VIII the
Senate take that responsibility? For tn
take 1t would mean that the Senate or
dered the war to be resumed unless its
orders were obeyed.'
The matter is not so simple. The d.
lemma is imaginary rather than real.
The Senate has options other than order
ing a resumption of the war or INCEST
ing whole any mixture compounded at
Paris. The Constitution in some re-
spects may be disintegrated, but the ar
ticle requiring taking of it's "advice"
with respect to treaties and securing its
consent" thereto exists in pristine
vigor.
The Senate may amend or ratfy in
part. After the Mexican War, not liking
President Folks idea that the treaty.
making power was in fact solely with
him, it fatty rejected the instrument ne
gotiated by N. B. Trist, his private
agent; compelled the appointment of
peace commissioners representative of
it, and struck from the treaty draft OBJ
iectionable articles. The war was not
resumed.
To the Declaration of Paris Of 1856
there was qualified adhesion. The
Hague convention Of 1907, where a
large number of powers were concerned,
had attached to it the proviso that the
United States consented to nothing
violative of its traditional policy (the
Monroe Doctrine) toward American
questions. Yet our government has al
ways assumed it is a signatory of the
Hague convention search Of the prec-
edents will doubtless reveal other ap-
plications Of the common-sense doc
trine that a nation, when dealing with
the whole of an instrument, may dis
criminate between separate parts, re-
jecting some and being bound by the
remainder.
II the Senate deems such action wise
it would seem it may ratify the parts Of
the treaty relating to termination Of

To the Editor of The Tribune
Sir: The sporting pages Of the news
papers throughout the country are at
present devoting much space to the pro.
posal of a prizefght between one Willard
and one Dempsey. It is proposed that the
test of brute strength shall occur on the
fourth day of July, 1919, Somewhere in
America" Is it at al possible that the
sober sense of the American people will
allow such an event to occur on that day?
1t would seem 70 me that on that day
celebration surprising anything that has
ever taken place in our country should be
arranged for. No Independence Day since
the first one has been SO important as
July 4, 1919. By then, doubtless, the peace
articles will have been signed It will be
the first Fourth of July Oh which we shall
call to mind the splendid exploits Of our
brave youth, whom we sent abroad to de
stroy brute force, many of whom at this
moment lie beneath the soil of France
VIII it be fitting that on that day we fill
the minds of our people especially Of our
youth, with thoughts concerning this pro-
posed exhibition of brute force?
To the credit of The New York Yacht
Club let it be said that it declined the
invitation to participate in an international
yacht race because it came too near the
close of the tragic World War. What
spectacle for the world to look upon'

nocent a pastime as q yacht race, but pre-
pairing for a fsticuf exhibition on her

stitutions; that experience is the surest
standard by which to test the real tendency
of the existing constitution of country;
that facility in changes, upon the credit of
mere hypothesis and opinion, exposes to
perpetual change, from the endless variety
of hypothesis and opinion; and remember
especially that for the efficient management
of your common interests, in country so
extensive as ours, q government of as much
vigor as is consistent with the perfect Sc
curity of liberty is Indispensable Liberty
itself will find in such a government, with

laws, and to maintain all in the secure and
tranquil enjoyment of the rights of person

MEMBER or THE Associated PRESS
Best Foot Foremost

What gives significance to the with
drawal of Representative Tess from the
Speakership race is that it followed
conference with Chairman Hays Of the
Republican National Committee.
MY action said Mr.. Tess, sis wholly
based on my sense of duty to the party"
That is the most gratifying thing about
IT. Republican Representatives no longer
regard the election Of Speaker as a
household matter in which only their
own personal interests and preferences
are concerned. They are studying the
effect of their decision on the country
and on the fortunes of the party.
Mr.. Mann's record disqualifes him
for the Speakership. His election would
put Republicans everywhere on the de-
fensive. 1t would contribute to i'll feel
ing and dishar1nony. On the other hand,
Mr.. Gillett's election would strengthen
belief in the soundness of Republican
leadership. He is Representative of
high character, unimpeachable associa-
tons and enlightened political ideals.
AS Speaker he would be an asset, not
liability.
The next Congress will be much in
the limeight- 1t will shape the issues of
the next Presidential campaign. The
country will look to it to present a pro-
gramme of peace reconstruction for
which the next Republican Presidential
nominee can stand. The party must
therefore put aside back-number leaders
and reactionary tendencies.
The people gave it a vote of confidence
last November. 1t is up to the Repub-
licans in the two houses to justify that
vote and to assure repetition of it
next year.

Forever Indivisible"

In November, 1863, the Danish Rigs
dag proclaimed the incorporation of
Slesvig into the Danish kingdom, while
Holstein was to remain a semi-autono-
nous principally within the North Ger
man confederacy. This arrangement
represented compromise between the
original Danish design Of merging both
duchies into their realm and the opposi-
ton of the German nobility of the
provinces who supported the claims of
the Duke OF Augustenburg and wanted
to secede altogether from under Danish
sovereignty.
Now, in 1860 Slesvig and Holstein en-
tered into a solemn engagement with
their Danish overload which provided
that the two duchies should remain
united unto the end Of time. Forever
Indivisible" was the motto on the coat
of-arms of the two provinces. The
Danish willingness to disregard this
time-honored document under the duress
Of necessity was q good enough Ems
telegram for Bismarck. War was de-
clared and Prussia and Austria trampled
their tiny adversary, and Slesvig-Hol-
stein were presently annexed to Prussia.
To-day the Danes are presenting a
claim, not, indeed, for the entire territory
wrested from them in 1864, but merely
for that strip Of Northern Slesvig which
has remained Danish in speech and
spirit. But the people of North
ern Slesvig, in protesting their al
legiance to the Danish motherland, have
reckoned little with the Prussian passion
to uphold the sacredness Of treaties. To
be sure, in this particular instance not
the peace Of Vienna, with its hitherto
unfulfilled clause granting the right of
plebiscite to the Danes of Northern Sizes
Wig. Prussian loyalty to treaties is
eclectic.
The Vossische Zeitang says that
the "loyal German population" of the
two provinces is holding meetings to
protest against the Infamous attempt
of the North Slesvig Danes to break
the sacred treaty Of 146O" by clamoring
for reunion with Denmark The slogan
"Forever Indivisible" is dragged forth
to do duty a second time Needless to saw.
it does not occur to the Prussians of
Holstein that the unity of the two prov
inces may be insured by returning both
to Denmark. This, Of course, would be
contrary to the ancient prussian doc
trine of the determinations Prus
