One insistent demand Of Germany,
that she be admitted at once to men,
bership in the league of nations, it was
said would not be granted, for the
French were unalterably opposed to
this, and Mr.. Wilson, according to re-
ports, had gradually come around to
their view Of keeping Germany out of
the league until she has become regen-
Grated and proved her sincerity. There
are not wanting influential persons and
journals that argue for the immediate
admission of Germany, basing the plea
mainly on the allegation that the good
will and early restoration to prosperity
of that country are necessary to the
safety and economic progress Of the
rest of the world. They call attention,
with shivers of apprehension, to the
imminent danger of Germany's form
ing an alliance with Japan and Rus
sia, and this was backed up last week
by more or less precise statements
that the Japanese and German ennis
saries already had been holding con-
ferences in various neutral places. A
good deal of this sort of stuff may be
put down to pro-German propaganda
more active just now than for some
time past, as witness the recent doings
of the "Germanamerican Citizens
league" with headquarters, in Chicago.
Much of it, too, is said and printed in
behalf of the selfish and self-centered
business man who demands uninter-
rupted and greater returns from his
investments, regardless Of justice to
the vanQuished and the victors in the
war, the victors who might suffer, in
this case, being the French.
