ant word and line because II Is tho
salvation Of Europe and of the world.
But Europe and the world do not seem
to hold that opinion, Mr.. Simonds, art
er thorough explanation Of the ffume
incident and its results, OF the French
demand for the Rhine as n barrier and
its avoidance by pledging the men ana
resources OF this country to war al
lance with France, OF the Hungarian
RoumanIan episode and its flasco on
the part of the conference says:
We see, then. in the case OF Italy and
in the case of Roumania that the run
damental conception of the league of
nations breaks down in the presence
of nationalistic and racial emotions
and aspirations of two nations. AS far
back as the time when the western
frontiers of Germany were being fixed
we saw it break down in the presence
of the French demand that the Rhine
should be a military barrier against
German attack. This initial breakdown
of the league of nations principles w2s
avoided when Great Britain and France
guaranteed, subject to the assent OF
the American senate, to come 10 the as
sistance of France, without condition,
il Germany should pass the Rhine.
In other words, France, Italy. ana
Roumania have each challenged the
whole basis of the league OF nations.
the French on the ground OF national
security, the Italians for reasons or
national security and racial unity, and
the Roumanians on the principle or ra-
cial unity mainly.
In the case Of France we met the
challenge by offering France some
thing equally as good" provided the
United States senate would endorse
Mr.. Wilson's promises But If the
United States senate shall reject the
Anglo French American treaty, then,
inevitably. we shall have again to deal
with the French claim for the Shine
barrier for then the situation will be
what il was before President Wilson
gave his pledge. and France, whose
armies now occupy the Rhine barrier,
will feel herself free to make that oc-
cupation permanent. We met the ltal-
ian demands for Fiunfe and Dalmatia
by Mr.. Wilson's note addressed to the
Italian people, which was ''misfire'
and resulted in the rally of the Italian
people TO their own national aspira-
tions. We met the Roumanian situa-
ton by issuing an Injunction forbid
ding the Roumanian army to enter
Budapest. and the Roumanian army
ignored the injunction.
Therefore 1t must be perfectly ap-
parent that we are approaching cri-
sis and all the principles asserted IN
our new settlements must soon be vim
dicated or abandoned. The league OF
nations, as have pointed out, has al
ready found itself four times in con-
flict with national ambitions or ma
tional necessities. in the case OF France,
Italy Roumania and Greece. 1t has so
far been unable to make progress in
Russia and the stupendous problem OF
the Turkish empire waits upon the
willingness Of the United States TO as
sumo one of the greatest obligations
which was ever imposed upon a peo-
pie. an obligation carrying with 1t only
moral rewards and involving stupen-
dous material sacrifices and not i'm
possibly a considerable cost in Amer
lean life.

NHy NOT Dissolve HoWa

Ancient leaders OF the prohibition
political party object to its dissolution
as a party. That is entirely natural
It Is like breaking home ties. Some
of them have lived there a long time.
1t is their political home. Some Of
them wouldn't know what to do with
themselves for time at least. So
they hate to leave the old place.
But a political party built about one
purpose isn't of much use when that
purpose has been accomplished. Not
that the prohibition party accom-
plished prohibition because it did not.
1t never polled enough votes to make
any great change; but it did carry
the banner and was always in the van
Of the prohibitory movement. Some
times its strategy seemed and was
lacking but 1t was not a strategical
body. 1t was Of those who incline to
forlorn hopes, fighting men and women
who attack on the center. horse foot
and dragons. But 1t was a fighting
bunch Of fighters and never lost sight
of the single idea which was re-
sponsible for it's existence as a politi-
cal party.
Now that prohibition has been prac-
tically accomplished, for we may prop
erly consider that accomplishment
leaves only the hopping up to be done,
it is not readily to be seen why the
party should not dissolve. Now that
prohibitionists OF all parties unite up
on the conclusion that the stuff is to
be shut off and the spigot spiked the
members of the prohibition political
party can accomplish more and have
d better time as members OF other
parties which include prohibition with
other vital problems and reforms in
| their platforms.

SIM oHps ON THE LEAGUES WEAKNESS"

Mr.. Darlings cartoon representing
the covenant arranged overseas as an
automobile sunk in an Iowa slough and
Mr.. Wilson Fastening into an adjacent
field to a farmer blowing there to see
"if ne can borrow p team" is a pleas
ing and humorous manner Of describ-
ing the situation. The arrangement
seems to have begged down.
The question arises whether or not
the machine itself Is not vitality de-
fective and whether it would held the
road If it were dug out to be used 'as
is" So far its trials and performances
cast serious doubts on it's usefulness
and suggest that it would be a most
dangerous vehicle.
Frank H. Simonds, in the American
Review of Reviews Of current date,
makes thorough and analytical re-
view Of the European tangle which
should be carefully read and consider
ed. His conclusions are not reassur-
ing as to the league as preven-
tive Of national and racial wars. Ho
points to the situation In Hungary,
where Roumania, boiling the confer
ence made war upon Hungary. Her
armies entered Budapest by conquest
The conference failed to send the 10o,-
600 men Hungary asked for to assist in
protecting her boundaries and her
capital city against the insurgent Rou-
manians. Neither England or Francs
dared send the soldiers because Of the
internal difficulties that such an act
would Immediately arouse. The Uni
ted States did not send men, perhaps
for the same reasons. And that is a
condition that will arise again and
again under the SO called league. Eu-
ropean conditions will not change
greatly in this respect. Racial ties and
| racial hatreds and old memories are
not eliminated by the signatures OF
| statesmen. The same difficulties will
arise whenever the Balkan states clash.
Naturally the solution would be armed
forces from the United States--but will
1.-the people Of the United States consent
i to policing the world with armies con-
scripted from the population In the
end CONSUMPTION would be the only
certain way In which such armies
could be maintained.

THE SCHOOL BELL.
Waterloo Times-Tribune.l


Will the opening of the, school find
your child ready for the winters
work? The long play time should have
strengthened it's lungs, hardened its
muscles, rested its eyees and mind.
Most. children, in spite Of traditional
feeling that they ought TO hate school,
are in reality glad to settle down to
it's routine again.
But how about the teeth. the eyes,
the throats? tz
Now is the time to have the dentist
get his work done. After school begins
it will be harder to fit in the appoint
ments. and the nerve strain which is
triAing for a child whose teeth are
looked after regularly, and who goes
from the dentist to day OF rest ana
play, may prove much more serious
added to a day of school work. Good
teeth form a very high percentage OF
good digestive equipment. Having the
children's teeth attended to by COM
petent dentist at regular intervals is
not an expense but an investment.
II the child shows the slightest tend
ency to hold a book too close, or TO
squint when he reads. or to be irrit-
able after any close eye work, he needs
to have an oculist examine him. he

Soon there was good bed Of ccals
on the flat stone and William took
his Jack knife and cleaned the pic
kerel, Then ne took two long sticks
and cooked the fish on both sides,
and when the Goals had turned nearly
black he wrapped the partly roasted
fish In leaves and laid 1t In the not
ashes and Goals.
Ranger looked anxious, but he didn't
like fish and he was hungry. But Will
liam never forgot Ranger and soon ne
pulled out of his pocket q bone.
Now, Fred, go over to that log and
get the sandwiches and the cake ana
the cookies and the pie. They Will all
be dry and as good as ever"
So Fred started for the log and 1T
tie william began to unwrap the fish.
81 don't see any sandwiches or any
cake or any pie or anything else TO
eat. Where did you put them7"
Right on that old log. Hurry up
or the fish will be cold" William called
back.
IT can't find a bite Of anything. Come
and show me-" said Fred.
So little William dropped the fish
and went to get the rest Of the
lunch. But when he got to the old log
there wasn't bite OF anything to be
seen.

TOWARD
THE BOLSHEVIKI
'" IS UNDECIDED

London, Dec. 10.-(Correspondence
Of the Associated Press)-There is a
wide divergence of opinion among
English politicians and newspapers as
to the attitude which the Entente
powers should assume toward soviet
Russia.
On the one hand is the view ex-
pressed by Sir George Buchanan,
British ambassador to Russia, who in
a recen public speech urged that re-
Inducements be recruited on a volun-
tary basis and be Immediately sent to
check the Bolsheviki. Sir George con-
tended that the Allies must not de-
sert Russia o and that they would
be untrue to the cause of democracy
II they did not put an end to the
reign Of Bolshevism.
At the opposite pole is Ramsay
Mcdonald and such newspapers as
Daily News which call for the imme-
diate withdrawal of all Entente forces
and demand that Great Britain cease
participation in military operations
which they denounce as interference
in Russian internal politics.
The majority Of the press is gener-
ally noncommittal and contents itself
with printing Russian news and re-
framing \from an expression of opin-
AOI pcIOllS COIlSluoFdLlOn o. RUSSIAN
policy by the peace conference.
There appears to be a widespread
unwtllingness among Englishmen to
support any policy which may involve
a continuation of military action on a
large scale unless it be clearly estab-
lished that such action is necessary to
safeguard the Entente victory. Never
theless there seems to be a growing
disposition in the press to regard the
restoration of peace and order in
Russia as a task which is necessary
to insure the stability of central Eu-
rope.
This is especially true since the
manifestations of Bolshevism in Ger
many n the attacks Of the Bolshe-
Wiki pom Esthonia and other Russian
territory evacuated by the Germans.
The Russian muddle is regarded
here as n of the all-important sub
jects to be discussed at the peace con-
ference. and the average Englishman
seems content to let the allied repre-
sentatives dispose of it without his
advice
