for Succor from unSpeakable distress,
for all that the new day of hope SEEM

And out of the execution of these
great enterprises of liberty sprang op-
portunities to attempt what statesmen
had never found the way before TO
( do; an opportunity to throw safe
guards about the rights of racial, ma

most likely to be miSchievOuS an oD-

league of nations as an indispensable
1nstrlmentality for the maintenance
of the new order it has been their
purpose to set up in the world-the
world of civilized men,
That there should be a league of
nations to steady the counseIs and
maintain the peaceful understandings
OF the world to make not treaties
alone, but the accepted principles of
international law as well, the actual
rule of conduct among the govern
mentS of the world had been one of
the agreements accepted from the first
as the basis of peace with the central
powers. The statesmen of all the bel
llgerent countries were agreed that
such a league must be created to sus-
tain the settlements that were to be
effected.
But at first think there was a feel
ing among some of them that, while it
must be attempted, the formation of
such league was perhaps a counsei
of perfection which practical men. long
experienced in the world of affairs
must agree to very cautiously and with
many misgivings.

Americas Part in the War.
The United States entered the war
upon Il different footing from every
G ther nation except our associates on
this side of the sea. We entered it,
not because our material interests
We're directly threatened or because
any special treaty obligations to which
we were parties had been violated,
but only because we saw the suprem-
acy, and even the validity, of right
everywhere put in jeopardy, and free
government likely . be everywhere
imperifed by the intC.erable aggression
of Il power which respected neither
right nor obligation and whose very
system of government fouted the
rights of the citizen as against the
aur0cratic authority Of his governors.
And i'll the settlements of the peace
for our services, bur only the restora-
ton of right and the assurance of lib
erty everywhere thar the efiects of the
settlement were to be felt. We en-
tered the war as the diSinterested
champions of right, and we interested
ourselves in the terms Of the peace
In no other capacity.
The hopes of the nations allied
against the central powers were at a
very low ebb when our soldiers began
to pour across the sea.
There was everywhere amongst
them. except in their stOutest spirits,
q sombre fOreboding Of disaster. The
war ended in November, eight months
ago. but you have only to recall what
was feared in midsummer last, four
short months before the armistice, TO
realize what it was that our timely
aid accomplished, alike for their
morale and their physical safety.
That first er-tO-bG-f0rgOtten ac-
tion at Chateau-Thierry had already
taken place. Our red0ubtable soldiers
and marines had already closed the

WHAT SCOTLAND IS DOING
This Little Country Has Already
Cheerfully Done Very Much More
Than Her Share,

We are pretty well acquainted In this
country with the part Canada Is TAX
ing in the war. We have been advised
from time to time Of the individual
sacrifices being made by the people
to the north Of us. We know only in
general way what other people are
doing So 1t comes as refreshing news
to hear from the lips Of such man
as Harry Lauder the heroic work and
sacrifices Of the Scots.
More than 100000 Scotchmen are
under arms, or have given up their
lives in the struggle. And Scotland
Is small country. In the cities and
towns there are no more eligible men
no more men fit to bear arms. They
have all departed. Scotland Is land
of old men and women and little chill
dren-and crippled soldiers. 1t Is not
the Scotland Of three years ago, with
husky set Of strapping young fellows
filling the fields and working in the
mines and mills.
Not only that, but the people do not
complain. There are no riots because
of the conditions-no murmurings
against their fate. The war is on; the
Scots will fight it out. That Is the
spirit one finds in Scotland, among
those old men and women and among
the little children. 1t is the spirit one
finds out in the trenches, where the
Scottish soldiers stand on guard and
meet the enemy face to face.
The history of Scotland Is too well
understood to call attention to 1t here.
The record Of the Scots, made in the
long ago, still is fresh in the mind Of
every one who knows history. So 1t
isn't necessary to state that the Scots
are born fighters, that they are not
going to give up. They have done in
this war exactly what those familiar
with Scottish history expected them to
do. And they will not fail at any time
in the Columbus Dispatch.
