BRITISH PRESS CR|T|C|SES J. {.
 LEAGUE 9[ [gA!!![
Maintain Monroe Doctrine Will Be Stronger Than Ever-See No Reason Why Wilson Should Be Ma ligned Because He Is a Democrat.

LONDON, March 20.-(By the As sociated Press).-The league of na- tionS controversy in the United States, as bearin gon the British attitude, is the subject of the following comment in the London Times:
 ''The English, without distinction of party, regard a better understanding with Americans as the crown of vic tory. It is unfortunate for the ideal that so many of us on both sides of the Atlantic have at heart, that party feel ing should be running so high just now in America, and that we who are work ing with President Wilson in Paris, should furnish the sticks with which the republicans are belaboring the democrats.
 We have no wish to take sides in party controversies and have been at some pains to avoid even the suspi- tion of doing so. Our sole wish is to work with the American people in what we believe to be as much their ideals and interests as our own.
 Wishing that with whom should We work but the president of the United States? That he is also leader of the democratic party is mere accident to our mind, and if the president had been republican, we should have been at exactly the same pains to understand his point of view and work with him.
 Post Says Doctrine Safe The Liverpool Post says: Lord Robert Cecil places the Mon roe doctrine in it's true light with re- ! gard to the league of nations. He says in effect that so far from the league being the death blow to the capita article of American political faith. it is the application of that article on a-uni- versal scale.
 According to the draft of the cove | nant, the parties to the league under take to respect and preserve as agains external aggression, the territorial in tegrity and existing political independ ence' of every member of the league | The most absolute supporter of Mon roeism' could surely desire no moro than that.

 Declares It a Problem of Peace-Not to Depend
 Upon Investment Argu-
 ment-Must Pay the Debt

MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., March 20.- Appealing confidently to the patriot ism of the American people to make a success of the coming Victory Liberty loan, Secretary of the Treasury Carter Glass, in two speeches in the Twin Cities today, declared the loan could not be floated on a strictly commercial basis.
 We are not going to approach the last Liberty loan in a strictly com mercial spirit" said MT. Glass tonight "A little thought will teach the wisest among the financiers of the country that it is impossible to float purely for investment purposes, a loan of five or six billion dollars. We have got to appeal to the patriotism of the American people and it will not be done in vain"
 T decline to believe said Secretary Glass in his speech tonight, that the American people are indifferent to the honorable commitments of their gov ernment or would diminish the splen- dor. of the nations achievement in wal by an exhibition of avarice in time ol peace. Four Liberty loans have gon, over the top and nothing nor anybody can shake my faith in the purpose O. the country to put the capstone to th' splendid structure of national credi by making the Victory loan an abund. ant success.
 Is a Problem of Peace
 T should doubt our ability to cop with the problems of peace, if s' quickly we forget the obligations U war.
 We have a right to invoke the pa triotism of the people and today i takes a higher type of patriotism {, serve the nation, than was require, in the delirium of war. Upon this shall confidently rely, and I predic that the response will in no measur disappoint the expectation of thos who set a high estimate on the spiri ! of the American nation. The Americai | people should supplement the patriot 1 ism of war by the patriotism of peace | and just as American soldiers on tn | fields of battle made notable conquest for liberty, so American businessmen ! in a different way and through diff ferent instrnmentalities, should nol ! give expression to their patriotism b prompt and cheerful meeting of tn 1 obligations of citizenship which in I volve trianphs of peace, easily com parable in their consequences to tn great victories of war The foremos { obligation of which I can think, is tn ! duty of every American citizen, [
 humble station or high, to guard jeal odsiy the honor of the nation to re gard it's commitments as his own, an
 willingly to pledge his labor and hi | substance to q complete payment !,
