TO The News Scimitar:
Under Public Discussion on March
"a, 1919, Ike W. Crabtrce apparently
believes that Washingtou's advice to
beware Of entangling alliances Is ap-
pllcable to conditions which exist to-
May l remind all such people that
this country to some extent owes its
independence to an cntaugiing alliance
with France. Is there any reason to
believe that the present course OF this
country should he guided by a policy
promulgated 10y people who have been
dead more than 100 years. Following
in the footsteps Of their forefathers has
Kept the Chinimau's queue in vogue

The league Of nations il essentially
a problem OF the present. and condi-
tions which might have made such a
covenant a menace 100 years ago do
not exist today.
Mr.. Crabtree quotes, apparently for
the benefit Of The News Sciinitar.
WaShtngton's farewell address, | am
Indebted to Mr.. CTabtree to this ex-
tent, and in all good humor | shall
borrow two or more lines from Wash
ington's farewell address. az follows:
Our detached and distant situation in
vites md enables us to pursue a diff
ference course etc. Certainly this con
dition does not exist today. Modern
science has almost annihilated time
and space and we are scarcely less re-
moved from Paris today than a con-
gresham was from Washington in the
days of which Mr.. Crabtree speaks.
Does not the fact that America, though
reluctant, was finally forced into the
present war furnish sufficient evidence
that we are not detached and distant"
and that no future war in Europe can
fail to affect us directly? May / Dor
row another sentence from Washing
toms farewell address, as follows,
Hence, therefore, It must be unwise
IN us to implicate ourselves by arti-
fetal ties etc. We have citizens
buried in Russia, Italy, England aud
10000 OF our brothers and friends are
asleep in France and Belgium, Are
these ties artificial? 1t il quite out Of
the question that we should not be
concerned forever in Europe, even If it
were not right that we should be.
Nations have been reduced to indi-
yiduals and as such must arrange for
mutual protection in much the same
manner as they do in cities and states
IN this country, Whether we realize
1t or not. decentralization has been
forced upon the world, II will be ac-
cepted, but not without the protest OF
those who think In the past tense. TO
those still living in the past | commend
a refreshing prophecy found In Tenny.
