European problems. But once the So
luton was applied to the facts it broke
down. Mr.. Wilson'S principles for which
he fought earnestly were put into the
European nations solemnly accepted the
covenant, but having done this they
proceeded to frame their peace on the
basis Of facts. financial. economical and
territorial.
They could not do otherwise, for any
other course meant ruin for their coun-
tries and victory for Germany. But
once this was done there emerged not a
peace Of conciliation, but treaty which
put Germany for fifteen years literally
in tho hands of her conquerors and COM
PEELED her to work under their direction
to repay the sums she had cost them
through her attacks. But to do this
meant to transform the league Of ma
tfons into an alliance whose main busi-
ness was to keep Germany in hand until
the account was settled, after an in
definite number Of years.
This, briefly, is the story Of the COL
lapse in Europe Of the league of ma
tions as a fact. Europe having indorsed
Mr.. Wilson's ideals, applied its own
principles. 1t made a European peace.
the best and most just European peace
in history, l believe, but something
utterly removed from Mr.. Wilson's idea
of a peace of Cancellation and literally
4 peace only to be enforced by the con-
tinued application Of actual force.
Moreover, the nations, large and small,
whose aspirations, frequently legitimate
were not realized, declined to accept the
decisions of the peace conference. and
either resorted to arms or bided their
time with the intention of ultimately
appealing to arms. And in this situation
the league Of nations disappeared from
calculations. from the serious discus
sions of Paris. save in American circles.
whereas to the returning American 1t
seems to have continued to occupy
American attention almost to the ex-
-clusion Of all else. In Paris ] talked
with scores and scores Of representa-
tives of big and little nations. but never
one did I meet who actually believed In
the league of nations as the fact or the
possibility 1t stin seems to many Ameri-
cans. What they all talked about was
the Anglo o-French-A alliance
which, as said at the beginning, was
the reality. British statesmen from the
beginning saw behind the league Of ma
tions idea, and the French statesmen
presently perceived.
