RED CROSS HELP
TO Be DEFINED
Peace Table to Determine
, Any Plan for Ex-
panSlOn.

Future aid of tho American Red
Cross to the stricken nations of the
world will be determined at the
peace table, it was disclosed yes
terday in advices received here
through diplomatic channels.
President Wilson has withheld
sanction to any plan by which the
organization will expand its work.
until the American people have de-
cided whether the United States will
accept the responsibility of being
named n mandatory for countries
outside the western hemisphere, or
will refuse to accept the political
dangers such a step might entail.
Although American delegates will
attend the conference of the Inter-
national Red Cross to be held in
Geneva this spring, it has been dis
closed that they will not be pre-
pared to accept additional respon-
sibilities until the future interna-
tional policy of their country has
been made clear.
Dawson VIII Attend.
Henry B. Dawson, head of the
Red Cross War Council who is now
in southern France considering data
ana preparing T'pol - lpi lHe use
of the American delegates to the
Peace Conference, will attend the
Geneva conference.
In some quarters it is said that II
Great Britain should be given the
powers of a prOteCtorat" over Pales-
tine. for instance. the English peo-
pie would desire that all humanitar-
ian work in tho country should he
done by the British Red Cross. In
general. it is said the various ma
tional Red Cross organizations
would follow the flag.

As far as they can bn said to
have voted for anything definite,
they voted for hanging the Kaiser:
and the dcCrc" Of their political sa-
EaCity may he inferred from the
fact that to secure that satisfaction
they put into power tn" party which
will certainly do its best to restore
tn" pTussian monarchy. and which
is in sympathy with Mr.. Wilson's
opponents in tho United States to
such an extent that tho first prac-
tiCal instalmrnt of the lcaEu" OF

ton of tn" British government and
the American opposition against the
American government and the British
opposition. Unfortunately the old or
der was just then receiving n five
years lease of parliamentary suprc-
macy from that portion (about halo
of the registered electors Of the Unit
ed Kingdom which took the trouble to
vote.
Party Politics No Aid.
All OF which confirms the view that
party politics. lie must make his way
as the man Of destiny. depending for
his support on the hopes and fears of
mankind. and on the urge of evoIu-
tiOn which inspires them, waving the
mere votes aside as an old hand who
knows what votes are worth.
The CruN of the fourteen points is
the League of Nations; and what we
have to consider now is what this
league must come to in pra ctice
At the guild hall, Mr. Wilson de-
SCribed it as mot one group of ma
tions set against another. but n sin
gle, overwhelming. powerful group of
nations which shall be the trustees
of the peace of the world" At which
there was immense cheering.
1t will be observed that in this
definition tho group is only n group.
The Parliament of man, the Fcder-
alton of the world" is still! out of
the question and AnaCharsis Klootz,
orator of the human race. is still a
fool and farCeUr. This is quite as
it must be. For I am sorry to say,
