LONDON POLICE AGAIN

SWORDS AND SCABBARDS NO

LONDON, March s. = The last
vestige of military equipment vas
taken from the London police re-
Gently when an order was issued
by the commissioner of the metro
politan force for the return to the
stores of all swords and scabbards.
In the old days superintendent,
inspectors and all mounted men
carried swords and were instructed
in cutlass drill. The weapons were
occasionally used in the suppress
sion Of riots. Years ago the in
spectors were deprived of their
swords, which they hung in the po-
lice stations. The order with
drawing the swords will not lead
to the withdrawal of automatic pis-
tolls, a supply of which is kept in
every police station for use in
cases of emergency. In ordinary
times the London bobby" goes
out for duty armed with no more
effective weapon than the law and
the impressive dignity of his six
foot personality.

The writer refers to Japan's two
victories over China and Russia
as having secured her admission
to the circle Of grand powers and
to have been the contamination OF
Japan's restoration" With the
accomplishment OF this restoration,
DR.. sawayanagi says, the problem
of how to unity Japan's ideals again

manding solution. This question,
says the writer, calls for the
greatest intellect. Until some
great leader arises who may inspire
his countrymen with great ideas,
such as are natural to them, and
such as they will accept, the prob
lem will not be satisfactorily SOW

the movements of present uneasy
thought in Japan can be suppress

Sawayanagi.

After two days spent in sleeping

FLYER SURVIVES

CAMP SHERMAN, Chilicothe,

it happened. The lieutenant Is II
the base hospital here and attend
ing surgeons say that he will n
joy life for many years to come,
despite the broken neck.
Lieutenant Logan, an aviator,
sustained the injury while on duty
in France. He went up n day
over the Vosges sector and engag-
ed several German planes. A piece
OF she'll from one of the enemy's
guns put his motor out of CON-
mission and the officer was fore
ed to volplane. He lost control
and had the preference of diving
on a house or landing on the
ground. He chose the latter,
and when he was dragged from the
wrecked machine 1t was found that
he had received only a few slight
scratches.
He rejoined his squadron, being
able to walk, but that night his
right side became paralyzed. Sur
geons made an examination and it
was found that Logan's neck was
broken. This was the fourth ac-
cident in which Lieutenant Logan
figures, for, previous to going into
active service, he was injured in
three training accidents.

There are some wide differences of opinion on the pro-
posed league of nations, and until these are harmonized the
should go on. And the man in either house OF
congress too cowarly to say what he thinks, no matter wheth-
er he favors or opposes it, should resign.
Mr.. Morgenthau, late minister to Turkey, said recently
that 90 per cent of the. American people would vote for such
a league and by their votes commit America to the undertak-
A few days later Congressman Fess of Ohio declared in
debate:
Just as soon as the American people shall grasp the
vicious possibilities herein included there will be such
a revolution of sentiment aroused that any man who
will subscribe to this perpetual surrender Of this re-
publicis future to a vote of foreign nations will be, as he
should be, r%epudiated as an enemy to the spirit and
genius of American institutions.
And Senator Reed of Missouri, a democrat, made the gal
leries of the senate, in which were several hundred soldiers
in uniform, "break loose" with tumultous applause when in
the course of debate he said:
If the senator wants to know, l will tell him what
would tell them if I were running this business. In
stead of writing leagues of nations with perpetual peace
in them, instead of spending my time talking about some
scheme that is to concern the civilization of the future,
l would say to the gentlemen running these countries:

to give them to me-" and if they did not give them to
us l would see to it that every benefit and advantage

The Goldfield news and weekly tribune. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1911-1947, 1919-03-15

But in administration circles there is an intolerance of
Opposition that will be dangerous if needed. If this most
radical departure from the policy of Washington that has been
proposed since the nation was born cannot stand discussion,
then in the name of all that is American the sooner it is
dropped the better. If it will stand the test of full and free
analysis, then let's have it. For this country means more to
most of us, and will mean more to our children and our chill
dren's children, than any mans ambition or the testing out of
any untred theory he may have advanced.
Senator Lodge, the scholar of the senate" an interna-
tional lawyer of international reputation, who will after to-
morrow be the chairman of the committee that must pass
upon this as well as the treaty of peace or any other interna-
tional agreement-senator Lodge startled the senate and pro-
voked an outburst in the galleries by asking whether, in the
event of another raid by Villa from across the Mexican Dor
der, we would be bound by the league agreement as now pro-
posed and wait three months before we could act. And, if so,
what would Villa and Carranza probably be doing in the mean
time.
There are all kinds of opinions in the world. Wilson
opinions, Taft opinions, Clemenceau opinions and opinions
without end and many of them without definite information.
1t is the great mooted question of the hour.
For ourselves we would like to see a league of the five
great nations-wOuld like to see the nations that fought the
peace for which they fought so long and so hard and with such
great losses.
But we would infinitely regret to see a league that will
denationalize this republic and make US a part of an interna-
tional soviet which in the end may have no more logic in it
than the present Russian regime.
1t all depends upon what we have before us, and before
we act we should make very certain to what sort of enterpris-
es we are committing ourselves.
One senator thinks we are being dragged into a league in
which there will be three European votes, one Asiatic and one
American, in the executive council of the league-and Senator
Borah is really cautious enough to think that they might out
vote us and tell us what to do-even tell us to send men and
money over there to help put down instructions. This may
be what we want to do, but we should not be afraid to discuss
it and tc look the thing fairly in the face. If that is what We
want, then we ought to have it, but we should be sure that
we want it.
4 q
AS a basic proposition WE may say that the American peo-
pie are not in favor of denationalizing at home, nor are they
in favor of the notwithstanding of everything we have. If
we cannot stand upon the whole doctrine of Washington
against entangling alliances, do we want to go to the other
extreme and entangle ourselves in everything without know
ing where we may wind up, or how we may ever unwind our
selves?
Anyhow, let's talk it ever, and if that be treason let's take
the consequences.
