Help Them Grow
PEOPLE MAY PAY
FOR ADMINISTRATION
By HAROLD L. BECHTOL.
european Manager Of the Newspaper
Enterprise Association.

Enterprise Association.
PARIS. Feb. pa lot Of the former
German colonial youngsters are clam
oring TO be adopted by the United
States.
The job OF the papa" nation chosen
BY the League Of Nations as trustee
for each colony until It is able to gov
ern Itself will be not merely 10 admin
lister Lhe Affairs Of its ward, but to do
u with an eye always Upon the train
Ing Of The potential Independent ma
tOn-so well that the day-by-day af-
fairs Of the colony will be an object
lesson.
Thus each colony under the league
Will become a school In which the CO.
lcnians will learn to conduct their own
affairs by watching the wheels OF the
government go round under "papa's"
management.
The League OF Nations will probably
arrange a plan whereby the colony
wards Will take over their own affairs
step at a time, the Big Powers pulling
out gradually.
OF course Uncle Sam is regarded as
al Ideal father. He has a spOtless pa
reputation. And being the handspring
behind the Observation-Disclosures plan
which will ultimately give the colonies
srlf-ruic. Il is only natural that all the
wards should start yelling I'VE want
an American daddy" right OF.
But the American mission Is making
70 promises. Its attitude Is to lei the
League Of Nations and America decide.
H., Job was TO stand flrm against any
thing that might resemble a "spoils
party"
Some American mission officials are
certain that American sentiment will
be strongly against any adoptlons.
There are other nations that will prob
ably be glad 10 take on the Jobs and
have united popular support In doing
il.
If the question OF Americas willing
ness to accept the responsibility is
raised that might ankle a difference,
certain officials feel. In that case the
people Of the United States might &C
ccpt an appointment In the spirit Of
htlpfulness and set about TO establish
a short-distance record in bringing the
happy colony to a point where self
government would be advisable.
In any case. II Il were shown 70 be
the American desire. the United States
might reasonably beg to be excused on
this ground:
I'VE have taken a strong stand
against obtaining any material benefits
for ourselves in the war; we have de-
clared again and again that we sought
nothing for ourselves; and we desire
TO do nothing that might be construed
into a contention that we are not car
rglng out that pledge in whole-hearted
spirit"
The question Of who is 20 pay for
the administration Of wards Of the
League Of Nations, administered by sin
gle nations is a difficult one but is re-
Corded as a detail.
Presumably the colonies would pay
insofar as they are able. They would
probably desire to be self-supportlng.
In case where the revenue falls short
Of requirements for government IL
would remain for the League or the
papa nation to make up the difference.
Those who favor league payment in
sist this plan would be made closely in
accord with the spirit Of International
ization.
