is most strongly felt that Immediately
upon getting to her feet Germany will
go to war again, to regain Silesia and
cut through the Polish corridor to

A strong group OF liberals condemn
the peace treaty for mangling Ger

they claim. If the opposition TO

the cold-blooded view that Is gaining

the British lion would seize upon

Rut as things stand, the Foreign
Ofice in Whitehall is genuinely

already taken over the German
colonies in Africa. besides Palestine
and Mesopotamia. and assumed the
duties of guardian in Arabia and
Persia. Meanwhile the Labor party
gets stronger at home. and cries out
against maintaining a large army
and sending British soldiers on gar
rison duties to new countries. More
territory means a large and more
expensive army, and the govern
ment fears the British taxpayer will
revolt If further demands are made
upon his purse. Indeed the finan-
cial position Is such that the En-
pire Is forced to cut down expenses,
whatever its desires.
However. the strategic position of
Armenia makes it necessary in the
British view for it to be occupied
either by a week power. by Britain
herself. OF by a country that Brit

actly fill the bill. Britain feels. So

white mans burden that Lloyd
George against the wishes of the
other European Powers insisted at
Paris that discussion of peace with
Turkey be held off until Wilson was
ready to say whether or not Amer

mandate.
British statesmen explain, / think
with sincerity. that their desire we
should take over Armenia does not
solely mean that we would pull
some British chestnuts out OF the
Turkish fire. Trade opportunities
are enormous. they say, and our

The Dardanelles. it is now coming

Americans will probably decline

London. Sept q. N.-Astonishment
mingled with ahrm at the treaty fight
in the United States prevails here,
and makes clear how greatly Britain
depended upon America to help
straighten up the European mess.
Whether John Bulls distress is be-
cause he fears we will not help hir ,
maintain some Of his own selfish il.
terests, or whether he Is sincerely con-
cerned for the peace of the world.
John does undeniably feel that Uncle
Sam Is letting him down"
1t is at first difficult for the Ameri-
can to understand the pervading sense
Of grievance. What is it that you
complain off, he asks. Surely our
Senate has a right to discuss these
onerous obligations our delegates in
Paris accepted for Us"
Slowly it filters through to he
American mind that what Britain, and
believe all Europe, complains about
is not so much the Senate delay or
any particular detail, even ratification,
as our government and its method of
doing or not doing business.
ITO deal with the United States, -
said a distinguished Briton, is IKE
making business arrangements with
the general manager of a company
whose board of directors can repudiate
what he has done. long afterwards.
We cannot talk to the directors; even
TO approach them would be improper.
There is no way to guess in advance
what view the directors win take Of
what their officials promise or ar
range; while we on the other hand
are bound by what our representatives
promise. To do business with your
country is impossible; you can hold
us to our bargains. nobody can hold
you to anything
An this means that our allies feel
asg1eved because Lloyd George and
'Clemenceau made agreements and con-
cessions IN dealing with Wilson in
Paris which were embodied in the
peace treaty ard ratified by Britain
and France, while they now find Will
son apparently unable to make good
the agreements and concessions he un-
dertook IN return.
The American here tries to turn
away wrath by explaining the peculiar
nature of our Constitution. Abroad.
he expounds. heads of governments
can act, but the Omitted States Senate
has the final word in ratifying any
engagement entered into by any serv-
aht of the American people This an
swer. true as it is. only draws the
reply that a country which has a
Constitution that makes its chief un-
able to discuss or arrange matters on
equal terms with other countries ought
to change that Constitution.
And so the argument continues. The
Americans last word, that the fathers
OF the republic probably framed the
government on purpose so that nobody
could bind the United States to any
thing, in the hope that they could so
keep the new country ort of European
entanglements. leaves his questioner
