British Vim Great
Diplomatic Triumph

Now, In all this situation, which re-
suited in the greatest diplomatic tri-
umph in all British history, it is very
hard to separate accident from design.

quently urged, that the British under
took to deceive or manipulate the
President and the American repre-
sentatives. They did not believe in the
league of nations any more than the
French, but they saw, what the French
failed to see, that friendly and sym
pathetic association with the President
promised to pave the way to something
eminently Overwhelmingly, a perma-
nent Anglo-American alliance, in fact,
if not on paper.
They saw with equal clarity two
other things. They saw that there
was very real likelihood that cham
pionship of the Presidents ideas would
remove the possibility of a clash over
such issues as the freedom of the seas
and the possession Of the German col
onies- Henry " once said of his
change Of religion that France was
worth a mass" and British statesman
ship, with equal vision, recognized
that American friendship, accepting the
President as representative of America
was worth any amount of sympathy
and aid to the President in furthering
plan which, whether practical or not
was without peril to British intere SITS
and had an appeal to certain elements
in the British population.
The other thing the British saw
with the greatest clearness was that
the war had changed the position of
America. Britain, victorious though
she was, had been crippled financially
and economically; recovery, if certain
would be slow; America was potential
rival, certain to occupy something OF

some time to come, certain to be the

nations, which was to make war impos-
sible in the future.
The Allies were equally resolved up
on peace which should so far as it
was humanity possible repair their
losses and heal their gaping wounds.
II Americas idcalistic experiment was
possible, alike in view of our history
and our contemporary condition, for
Europe 1t was impossible alike because
OF traditions and immediate ciycum-
stances
But given the essential facts, the
diplomacy of the great powers, Britain,
france and Italy dealt with the Amer
lean proposal in totally different fash
ions. particularly at the outset. The
British on their part, with supreme
good sense, elected not to oppose Mr..
Wilson, but to associate themselves
with proposal recognized by most of
them to be decidedly impractical, and
gain thereby the incalculable advantage
of new and closer friendship with the
United States. The French honestly
but moderately proclaimed their lack
of faith in the Wilsonian doctrine,
while the Italians stood coolly aside,
insisting at all times upon such ma
tional benefits as they had material
claims upon.
The result was inevitable. In the
briefest time the British and American
representatives in Paris were working
in closest harmony. Cecil, Smuts and
half dozen other British and Colonial
representatives were framing the CO.
venant of the league of nations, while
between the French and American .ep-

between the Italian and American rep

MINT AT PHILADELPHIA
 MANUFACTURES MEDALS

l PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 24.-Every medal that the United States govern ment confers is made in the Phila- delphia mint. For the war depart ment alone, the big federal money factory is at present turning out twenty-two types of medals. The badges of honor awarded to Marshals Foch. Haig and Joffre, and other dis tinguished allied commanders, were the product of the mint.
 Marshal Foch is reported to have remarked that the American Dis tinguished Service Medal is the hand somest military decoration awarded. About two hundred of these medals of bronze and brilliant blue enamel are made every week in this city and turned over to the war department for shipment to the camps and army headquarters at home and abroad.
 Many more of the military crosses, awarded for valor, are being made. More than five thousand of these have already been shipped from the mint. In manufacturing these medals ten i'm pressions are made by a hydraulic press on small square of bronze, be- ginning with one hundred tons pres sure and increasing to two hundred and fifty tons. After the die has been stamped in this fashion, the cross is cut out by machine. The medal is then passed to workmen who fashion the little cross-bars from which it is suspended, ribbons are attached and the decoration is placed in a box ready for delivery.
 The United States naval medal of of honor is also made at the mint. Here are manufactured the various kinds of medals awarded fd sharp shooting, marksmanship asd other honors of the service.
 An order now being filled calls for ten thousand Mexican service medals, attractive bronze discs for the men who were in the Vera Cruz expedition. Now that the peace conference at Paris has approved the award of dis tinctive service medals to every man who served in any of the allied armies the Philadelphia mint might be called to manufacture medals by the million.
