pointed out that the treaty of London
provided that Fiume was to go to
Croatia and that italy did not lay
claim to the city when that treaty
was signed.
The president made It clear that
rehabilitation of the American army
would depend upon the speed with
which the military conditions OF the
peace treaty were executed by Ger
many and the treaty was ratified by
the various governments.
The president also indicated he felt
trade relations between Germany and
the associated nations should be re-
sumed at the earliest moment pos
sible, for without trade Germany
could not meet the reparatfons de-
manded of her.
Lodges Claim.
Senator Lodge and his antiadminis-
tration associates persisted in their
claim that fifty-one OF the ninety-six
members of the senate would not agree
to the ratification of the treaty unless
II were coupled with reservations. They
admitted. however, to form these res
ervations were likely to take time and
had not yet been agreed upon. They
declared that the presidents address
would not influence the course they had
tentatively mapped out and that their
opposition to acceptance, unchanged. OF
Articles X and XII of the league cove
nant, OF the Shantung agreement and
other provisions OF the treaty. would
be fought out on lines of their own
during the weeks they declared must
elapse before the senate controversy

the other.

it would require considerable time for

OF the British Ambassador. Bismarck
was sitting beside her and suddenly said {:
Never in my life was more glad to hear
Of anything than was to hear of your
fathers DEATH When she showed her
amazement at this speech he patted her
hand and added: 'Ach, dear lady, you
must not take it like that. What mean
is that if your father had lived he would
have prevented the war; What was
wanted, either to prevent the war or when
started to conclude it on tolerable terms,
was statesman of long views, bold words
and swift action; and Heaven had not
granted him"
Mr. Marvin's chapter on the New Spirit
in Literature in the nineteenth century is
an admirable essay in and of itself. AS
the eighteenth century was predominantly
a period of prose, the next period was an
age of poetry, to be succeeded by the rise
and development Of the modern novel
"In this time we have Wordsworth, By
ron, Shelley, Coleridge, Browning and
Tennyson, as well as Scott and the great
est school of novelists in the world" Next
to the creative power in this literature
the author finds the spirit of freedom to
be its most striking feature, as most
clearly expressed by Wordsworth in Eng
land, Leasing in Germany and Victor
Hugo in Franco Next in importance is
the historical spirit, perhaps most mani
fest in Scott, whose writings are pro-

The latest writer to play on the tri-
angle is Rabindranath Tagore. Mac
milan has just issued The Home and
the World, which is his first long novel
to be done into English. 1t IS translated
by Surendranath Tagore. To a hardened

I came to giggle, and remained to read.
I was merely going to review it, but l

Tagore has inklings Of the sublime In this
book. He almost gets out of his wicker
bird cage and begins to fly over the
world. If he had conquered his besetting
scntimentality and his blurring effem-

cursions on the horns of Flaubert's Satan

dous character, epical and terrifying.

The great war now coming to an end
confirms the lesson of earlier history to
the effect that friendliness between
France and England is vastly important
if not essential to the welfare of Europe
Ever since the Congress of Vienna in
1915 the two countries have shown a ten
dency to act together for the general good,
although there have been occasional de-
viatiOns from this benefcent policy. Up
to the time of the Franco Prussian war
it had been the traditional role of Eng
land to intervene in European eomplica-
tons whenever it was necessary to pro-
tect the weak or oppose those who were
unduly strong. If this tradition had been
observed thereafter France might not
have lost Lorraine. Lord Clarendon, one
Of the ablest Foreign Secretaries England
ever had, died just three weeks before the
war commenced and was succeeded by
Lord Granville. "The influence which
Clarendon might have exercised is well

For a writer whose pursuits have
been chiefly literary, the author possesses
q rare com 1rehensiOn of the modern ad-

by his chapter on mechanical science and
