SELF-STARTER WANTED

There has lately been much said
in speeches by prominent men and
many columns printed in the daily
press anent building revival.
, An Eastern writer argues that
prices are not going to drop and
urges those who have building to do
to start at once, regardless of high
wages. Another Eastern man, a pro-
fessor Of well known college, says
all that is needed to start a revival
Of business, and especially a building
boom, is for few to start the pro-
cess and others will quickly fall into
line.
But there is the stlcker! Where
is the Arnold Winkelreid to lead
the charge against the phalanx of de-
preston? 1t will take a brave man,
for the reason that most people are
of the opinion that prices are bound
to drop and that wages will follow.
Mr.. Average Man will therefore
make what improvements are neces-
sary to conduct his business and not
speculate or make unnecessary in
vestments until that day arrives.
The statements of Prof. Blank to the
contrary will have about as much ef-
feet on revival OF building as
would the vicious kick OF well
known ant in starting stalled
freight train.

Washington declared against per,

Washington declared against per-
manent alliances. He did not close
the door on temporary alliances for
particular purposes. Our entry into
the great war just closed was en-
tirely in accord with and violated in
no respect the policy laid down by
Washington. When We went TO war
with Germany we made no treaties
with the nations engaged in the war
against the German government The
president was so careful in this d.
rection that he did not permit him
self ever to refer to the nations by
whose side we fought as allies but
always as nations associated with us
in the war; The attitude, recon-
mended by Washington was scrupu-
lousy maintained even under the
pressure of the great conflict. Now,
in the twinkling Of an eye, while
passion and emotion reign. the
Washington policy is to be entirely
laid aside and we are to enter upon
permanent and indissoluble alh-
anee. That which we refuse to do
in war We are to do in peace deliber-
ately, coolly, and with no war ex-
igency. Let us not overlook the pro-
found gravity of this step.
81 have seen it said that the Mon
roe Doctrine is preserved under ar
ticle 10; that we do not abandon the
Monroe Doctrine, we merely extend
it to all the world. How anyone can
say this passes my comprehension.
The Monroe Doctrine exists solely
for the protection Of the American
hemisphere, and to that hemisphere
it was limited. If you extend 1t to
all the world, it ceases to exist, be-
cause it rests on nothing but the diff
ferentiation of the American hemi-
sphere from the rest OF the world.
Under the draft Of the constitution
of the league OF nations American
questions and European questions
and Asian and African questions are
all alike put within the control and
Jurisdiction of the league. Europe
will have the right to take part in
policing the American continent and
the Panama Canal, and in return we
are to have, by way of compensation,
the right to police the Balkans and
Asia Minor when we are asked to do
so. Perhaps the time has come when
1t is necessary to do this, but it is a
very grave step, and wish now
merely to point out that the Amerl-
can people ought never to abandon
the Washington policy and the Mon
roe Doctrine without being perfectly
certain that they earnestly wish to
do so.
Very complete proof must be Of
fered Of the superiority of any new
system before we reject the policies
Of Washington and Monroe, which
have been in our foreign relations
the Palladium of the Republic. With
in the memory Of those to whom !
now speak the Monroe Doctrine stop

LODGE AND THE LEAGUE

speech by Senator Henry Cabot
Lodge in regard to the proposed con-
stitution for league of nations:
81 will follow any man and vote
for any measure which in my h1.-
est opinion will make for the main
tenance of the worlds peace. ] will
follow no man and vote for no meas
ure which, however well intended,
seem in my best judgment to lead
to dissensions rather than to har-
mony among the nations or to injury
peril, or injustice to my country.
'In the draft prepared for con-
stitution Of a league of nations,
which is now before the world, there
is hardly clause about the inter-
probation of which men do not al
ready differ. AS it stands there is
serious danger that the very nations
which sign the constitution of the
league will quarrel about the mean
ing of the various articles before
twelvemonth has passed. 1t seems to
have been very hastily drafted, and
the result is crudeness and looseness
Of expression, unintentional, I hope.
There are certainly many doubtful
passages and open questions obvious
in the articles which can not be set
tied by individual inference, but
which must be made so clear and so
distinct that we may all understand
the exact meaning OF the instrument
10 which we are to be asked to set
our hands. The language Of these ar
ticles does not appear to me to have
the precision and unmistakable char
acter which constitution, a treaty,
or law ought to present. The lang
mage only too frequently Is not the
language of laws or statutes. The
articles concerning mandatories, for
example, contains an argument and
statement of existing conditions.
Arguments and historical facts have
no place in statute or treaty.
Statutory and legal language must
assert and command, not argue and
describe. press this point because
there is nothing so vital to the peace
Of the world as the sanctity OF trea-
ties. The suggestion that we can
safely sign because we can always
violate or abrogate is fatal not only
to any league but to peace itself.
You can not found world peace upon
the cynical scrap Of paper" doc
trine so dear to Germany. To what
ever instrument the United States
sets its hand IL must carry out the
provisions Of that instrument to the
last jot and title, and observe II alb
solutely both in letter and in spirit.
II this is not done the instrument
will become a source OF controversy
Instead OF agreement, Of dissension
instead OF harmony. This is all the
more essential because It Is evident.
although not expressly stated, that
this league is intended to be indis
soluble, for there is no ptRision for
Its termination or for the withdrawal
OF any signatory. We are. left to in
fer that any nation withdrawing
from the league exposes itself to pen
alties and probably to war.

at the county jail they said so, and
there was no possibility of misunder-
standing What their ideas were on the
subject. The words they chose were more
forceful than elegant and considerably
more expressive than refined. Gladys was
