Wheels the League Of Nations into the

Wheels the League Of Nations into the
forum.
An American supporter of the
league idea complained bitterly that
the French are so strong for ''guaran-
tees" that they won't be satisfied with
anything less than triple alliance
America, Great Britain and France.
TRIPLE ALLIANCE
LOOKS GOOD TO SOME.
They'd let the rest of the world go
hang if they could realize that dream,
he said, "the Big Three are running
the peace conference and they think
the Big Three might just as well run
the world"
A man who claimed to have been
hearing from the states" rather liked
the triple alliance idea. He said he
thought the Republicans back home
would like it better than a League of
Nations.
The "muddle" naturally has created
a maelstrom of printers ink, with
President Wilson occupying an unen-
viable position in the exact center.
The London Daily Express has be-
come openly hostile. 1t calls Presi-
dent Wilson "the autocrat of the peace
table," ~
And then it modestly adds: "Few
phrases have ever so thoroughly en-
shrined an historic truth"
However much Ehglishmen in Paris
subscribe to this view, it is paradox
ically true that if an American were
to hint that Mr.. Wilson was the whole
show the average Englishman, nod
ding his head affirmatively over the
Express statement, would instantly
become indignant and declare that
Lloyd. George and Clemenceau are just
as big as Wilson is!
The Echo de Paris Indignantly de-
clares that "the Wilson policy is abso-
lutely dictated by considerations of in
ternal American politics"
SAYS WILSON HAS -.
POSTPONED PEACE. s...
1t adds that <"Mr. Wilson has inev-
itably. postponed the end of state war
and the arrival of peace" r.
Another French writer laments
"the paralysis of will'' shown by the
peace conference.
"The whole thing" says third, is
such complicated tangle that it is
difficult to see how it can be unrav--
elled." @--~
Even the London Daily Mail, ordi-
narly defender Of Wilson, has
worked ITSELF around the other way.
It is generously pointed out by the
Mail that "where all are responsible,
no man deserves special blame" But
the Mail adds: "'But there is one
man whom the world will chiefly
blame if the conference fails or if it
be overwhelmed by Vntoward events
because it's work Vas not done in
time: That man is President Will
son."
Z So goes, the discussion. And the
"muddle" keeps muddled. There is a
commercial phase to it too. Such as
recent rumors-spectres to frighten
the uneasy and the pessimistic-that
Italy is thinking Of entering into d
alliance with Germany!

ANCESTRAL TREES
BY REV. THOMAS B. GREGORY

a DISTINGUISHED present-day literary
n man says: II was once trying to prove
to my wife, who is a collateral rela-
tive of Ralph Waldo Emerson, that I was de-
scended from Governor Winslow, of the May
flower In trying to do this found that
went back to man who stole feather bed.
There I stopped"
1t was bad luck, but no worse than the
fortune that comes to all pedigree-hunterA
provided they go back far enough. There iA
dark man" away back yonder whose
shadow is sure, sooner or later, to fall upon
the man who is foolish enough to go poking
around among the ancestral trees.
Let me state the case exactly as it is, and
the conclusion will be easy t.,> .{SA
The number of mans ancestors doJIh1as
every generation as the line is traced up
ward. In the first generation he has two
ancestors-his father and mother; in the SEGA
ond four, two grandfathers and two grand
mothers. But each of these four had two
parents and In the third generation we have
eight ancestors. ts
In the fourth generation the number of an
cestors has risen to sixteen, in the fifth to
thirty-tWo, in the sixth to sixty-four in the
seventh to one hundred and twenty-eight.
In the tenth generation the figure rises to
l,O24, in the twentieth to 1,O48.576. in the
thirtieth to 1,O73, 471,834! -E :,
1t will readily be observed the ancestry is
now becoming rather baZy, so that even
Philadelphia lawyer" might easily get mixed
up IN tracing the line.
But let us reverse the process and, instead
of going backward work our way downward.
Reckoning the average number of children at
two, the man who leaves posterity behind him
has the number of his descendants doubled
every generation. The two children are fol-
lowed by four grandchildren, the four grand
children by eight grandchildren, and at the
twenty-eighth generation the number has
mounted to 67,006,624!
If one could rise from the grave at period
no further removed from us in the future
than the Norman Conquest is in the past.
every person he met would be one of the de-
scendants. Every one of them would have
inherited something of his nature.
Inc people at no very distant date in +bo
past were all our fathers and mothers and
the people who will be living not very far
distant In the future will be our sons and
daughters, from which it follows, as the night
the day, that all the people living at the nres-
ent day are our relations. With perfect nro
pf1ety we may call them brothers and sisters
or course, we do not fully realize this fact
IT we did we would have an entirely different
feeling toward each other We would cease
to think of one another as aliens and stran
gers and come to feel that we are kith and
kin. =
In the full, clear light Of this simple trust,
every person would have a deep and real in
terest for us, and all that is implied in athe
great word Humanity would take on o,
newer and holier meaning.

full city, where still fingered the
genius of Peter the Great and whittier all
Russia looked to her capital, stood strong
and promising. Ills and evils it had unques-
tionably, but they were of a kind which the
progressive years could correct Inequities
and expressions burdened it's people, but a.
way to justice was opening; the future shone
with steady light. First the war and then
the revolution had wrought many a change
upon the city's face and in it's soul. Old times
were fading, and with them a certain color
fulness which romancers could but miss. Yet
there were beauty and unbounded cheer in the
new day which was slowly breaking. Petro-
grad would grace new empire an empire of
liberty and fraternity, and play an honored
role on the worlds widened stage.
Then came Lenine with his hate and greed
and demagogy, setting class against class and
Russian against Russian. Industry was first
crippled and then paralyzed Commerce
ceased save in the smallest way. Shops were
empty and farms idle. Hunger came on, and
then starvation. Bolshevism was having it's
way. The city's streets were turned into
shambles where men who should have been
cooperating for their common good fought
and slew one another for no advantage but
that of clique of criminals in brief authority

could have been happy working together
brought such misery upon themselves and
their native land. This is the harvest of Boil
sheyism and the wages Of class hate.

MOLOCH
RV Dr Frank Gran

by Or. FRANK Crane
When the Allies impose upon the defeated
Central Powers the penalty of disbanding
their army, giving up their warships, and
disseminating the manufacture of cannon,
they are not Furnishing them. they are con-
rerring upon them an inestimable benefit.
No gladden. thing can befall nation than
to get rid of Preparedness, which means an
onerous burden of money tax and blood tax,
and still better, to get rid of the Professional
Soldier and his point of view.
Militarism is an unmitigated curse. 1t is
the triumph of human stupidity in statecraft.
And unless the Allies shall themselves dis
arm, as the United States is now rapidly do
ing, their Victory will cost them more than
the Enemy paid for defeat.
The Krupp works in Germany and the
Skodia works in Austria were the things that
made the recent assault upon the worlds lib
critics possible.
Above all things, the manufacture of NUM-
ties of war should be absolutely prohibited
to private persons or firms, and should be
carried on, if at all, only by the state.
If we shall accomplish universal disarma-
ment, we shall have made the longest stride
forward in human progress.
Without that we shall not have progressed
at all.
AS the League of Nations is the Heart of
the Treaty, so Disarmament is the life-blood
in that Heart.
The time will probably never come when
men shall cease to fight, to shoot, and to kill,
to vie and contend, but there is a vast differ
ence between the citizenry of nation being
over Prepared to defend their country, and
the traditional Preparedness which implies
keeping up huge standing armies, vast fleets
If battleships and enormous cannon factories,
each nation striving.to outstrip the others.
The League of Nations at least furnishes
he machinery for disarmament. No other
scheme ever did that.
The steam of that machinery, the motive
power which can make it go, is the Spirit
among Mankind that realizes and abhors
War.
'"All peoples" says a recent newspaper
editorial, ARE realizing as never before the
danger of thinking in terms of armies and
fleets.
Cali peoples are raising their voice against
the Moloch upon whose burning arms SOW
ereigns and statesmen have been sacrificing
the frst-born of the race.
Statesmen must heed the universal cry
for disarmament-or in ignoring it take the
consequences of their admission that the
great war has been fought in vain"

Senator La Toilette has given notice thR$
before long, he will address the senate ON
the League of Nations, and that 1t will, in
all probability take two days for him to
complete his remarks. Which sounds as IL
the senator had quite lot to say. Still, 1t
will be his maiden effort on the league, so
he may be excused if he takes quite time.
Other senator's, and students of politics, are
wondering what angle the gentleman's re-
marks will take.
The exact situation in Bulgaria is shroud-
ed in mystery. The Whereabouts of King
Boris are not positively known, and yet Mp

has quit the throne.
Representative Hebt C. Pell, Jr of New
York City, has issued statement warning
against the Bolshevist meHdce this country. J
Representative Pell suggests some interesting
methods of fighting Bolshevism here, one of
his plans being to engage four-minute men,
such as those who spoke for Liberty Loans to
conduct a nationwide campaign against ''the
red menace" in America.
Troops sent by the government were COM
PEELED to use machine guns on the mobs Of
strikers throughout Basic, Switzerland, DUR
ing the recent strike there. Five persons were
killed and fifteen wounded in the first clash
between the troops and the strikers. All OF
the killed and wounded were strikers.
Walter Hume Long, of the house of COM
mons, first lord of the admiralty, has an
nounced that England is preparing to sal
wage one battleship, three light cruisers and
fifteen destroyers of the former German
fleet, which were scuttled by their crews, at
Scapa Flow, on June 22nd, 1919.

A movement is on foot by which the Jew.
ish bachelors of America are to become "dad-
dies" to Jewish children orphaned by the
war. They will be real "daddies," too, not
the sort who write check to pay for the
up-keep of a child for a year. They will take
the Riddles into their homes, and bring
them up as their own children. The plan is
fostered by Jacob Billikopf, who has just re-
turned after several months in Poland

orphaned children. Mr. Bilikopf has adopt

Georgta and the OrIent.

Proposals that steamship lines be estab
lished between Georgia ports and the Orien
are anything but visionary The times may
not yet be ripe for such an enterprise, but ii
the very nature of things it will come.
Mr.. Julean Arnold, American commercial
attache at Picking, reminds us that it was il
an effort to reach Asia that Columbus dis
covered America: "Since that time we have
been tied to the apron strings Of Europe
of the fact that our subsequent
territorial developments make us geographic
ally more OF al Asfatic than q European
power" He points out, moreover Eve quote
a summary of his remarks from the Savan
nah Morning News), that
"The United States is nearer to Asia
than to Europe or even to South Amer
lea; that there is a possibility of con-
Meeting America and Asia by rail, an
enterprise as nearly feasible as the june
ton of the two great oceans in the Pan
anna Canal, by means of a subway route
near Boring Straits; that Manila, Ameri-
can territory, is nearer to China than is
Toxic in Japan; that the United States
has for the past twenty years governed
an Asiatic colony containing ten million
population, not by force or political
power but by the school house, and has
given to these people the finest system
of education Of any country in the world;
that the United States has a greater
Pacific Coast line than any other nation,
including the coast lines of China and
Japan combined; that the first foreign
consul to China was appointed by the
first President of the United States; that
the American flag was once for a long
period predominant in Chinese waters;
and that the United States by these rea-
sons and facts is entitled to consider
itself especially interested in China and
Japan and the rest of the Far East"
If the possibilities thus indicated seem re-
mote, let us reflect that nearly all great world
developments have seemed remote save to g
discerning few, until they were fairly rising tt
crest. Lucrative trade between Georgia ports
and the Orient, far from being a day-dream
is among the practical certainties of the
decades just ahead.
