THE POWERS.
New York Tribune)

(NeW YORK Trlbune).
When there IL real business to be
done In the interest OF permanent
peace It always develops that 1t must
DO done by the concerted action Of
the three great powers who are the
body as well as the heart of the al
lance against Germany. Talk OF the
league proposed by the covenant dies
away and the real league comes into
view. II this real league does not con-
tinue. II its will and power do not en-
ergize any other scheme or plan for
peace, then the latter becomes merely
q piece of paper.
