United states Food administrators.
There are one or two points in
connection with the present treaty
that need careful consideration by
the American public. We need 10
digest the fact that we have for a
century and "A half been advocating
democracy not only as remedy
TOR the internal ills Of all society,
but also as the only real safeguard
against war we have believed and
proclaimed. IN season and out. that
a. world Ia which there was a free
expression and enforcement OF the
will of the majority was the real
basis OF government. was essential
for the advance OF civilization. and
that we have proved its enormous
human benefits in our own country.
We went into the war TO destroy
autocracy as menace to our own
and ali other democracies. II we
had not come into the war every
inch OF European soil today would

We have imposed our viii on the
world out OF this victory has come
the destruction OF the four great
autocracies in Germany. Russia,
Turkey and Austria and the little
autocracy in Greece. New demo
cracies have sprung into being in
Poland. Finland Letvia Lithuania.
Esthorfa, Czechoslovakia, Greater
Serbia. Greece. Siberia. and even
Germany and Austria have establish
ed democratic governments. Beyond
these "a host of small republics. such

though they still maintain a symbol
OF royalty.
We have been the living sprine
for this last century and half from
which these ideas have sprung. and
we have triumphed The world to-
tav except for a comparatively few
reactionary and communists auto

Without League of Nations
To Guide Ne10 Made Republics
Europe VIII Go Back to Chaos

democracy. as a stable form of gov
eminent as we know it, is possible
only with highly educated popula-
lions and a large force of men who
are capable OF government Few of
the men who compose these gov
ernments have had any actual ex-
perience at governing and their pop
ulations are wOefully illiterate.
They will require a generation of
actual national life in peace TO de
velop free education and skill in gov
eminent
Unless these countries have
guiding hand and referee in their
quarrels. a court of appeals for their
wrongs, this Europe will so back TO
chaos. If there is such an institu-
ton. representing the public opinion
OF the world. and able TO exert its
authority. they Will grow into sta
bility. We cannot turn back now.
There is another point which also
needs emphasis. World treaties
| hitherto have always been based on
I the theory Of balance Of power
Stronger races have been set up TO
dominate the weaker, partly with a
view 10 maintaining stability and TO
a greater degree with a view TO
maintaining occupations and posi-
/ tons for the reactionaries of the
world
The balance of power is born of
/ armies and navies. aristoCracies, au-
/ tocracies. and reactionaries gener-
/ ally, who can find employment and
/ domination in these institutions. and
/ treaties founded on this basis have
/ established stability after each great
war for shorter or longer time,
but never more than "A generation.
/ America came forward with a new
idea. and we insisted upon its mice
tion into this peace conference. We
/ claimed that it was possible to set
up such a piece OF machinery with
such authority that the balance OF
\ power could be abandoned as a relic
OF the middle ages. We compelled
an entire construction Of this treaty
and every word and line in it &c
bend TO this idea.
