CAPTAIN GIVES VIEWS
Of LEAGUE TO SENATOR
Writes Mr.. Borah That Soldiers
Hope for Something Worth
While to Follow.

That it is the business of a con-
structive statesman to aid in the
movement to make peace secure by
having his say as to the organization
of league of RRtions, rather than
merely to array himself in opposition
to the plan suggested, is the belief
expressed by Capt. Thomas q. Cham
berlain, y. Il. F., in letter to SEN
ator William f. Borah.
Capt. Chamberlain recently returned
from foreign service wearing two gold
chevrons. He was in action at Cha
teauThierry, Nerdun and in Flanders
with the lst Anti-Aircraft Battalion.
He was present recently when Senator
Borah spoke in Boston, when, he says
in his letter, the fun case. for and
against, the league of nations was not
presented, soldiers and sailors who at
tempted to speak being denied oppor-
tunity to do so. Capt. Chamberlain S
letter, in part. follows:
"A mere soldier, one among four
million. could not challenge d United
States senator; but as one so fortu-
nate as to have been on the firing line
when it was question of the life or
death of our nation. l ask permission
to present at your meetings the case
and who did make the supreme sacri-
fee for Il better world
The American soldier fought with
no selfish or sordid aim. He believed
that something nightly worth while
would follow his sacrifice. He be-
lieved an organization would follow
which would make peace more secure
He knew little of the details of a
league of nations; but from his every
day life he could see the necessity OF
organization. He now believes that
it is the business of constructive
statesman to say what that organiza :
tion should be, and not merely to op-
pose the one suggested.
we have been too busy on the
other side to know what has been
going on politically at home. Posi-
bly, an appeal for party support was
made where it should not have been
made Possibly the Senate was not
given full consideration. We do not
know. But we do know that Ameri-
can soldiers have been dying for GER
tain principles and that these prin-
cipies are too great to be discredited
for the purpose Of discrediting the man
who happens to uphold them; too
great to be discredited for the pur-
pose of discrediting any party"
