This was genuine constructive states
manship, of the most valuable kind, and,
as before, it provoked regret that such
counsel as Mr. Knox's could not have been
marshalled into the service of the nation
in representative capacity at the Peace
Congress. We believe that such a pre-
sentation of American views as he could
have made would have commanded the
highest degree of respect and confidence
from European powers even in the max
ing Of it; for there is nothing that more
commands respect that for nation reso-
lutely to maintain it's characteristic prin-
ciples, and there is nothing much more
certain to forfeit it than supple readi-
ness to compromise them or to forsake
them. Of course in the last analysis re-
spect for the American policy at Paris
must be conditioned upon the extent to
which it is approved by the nation. We
should almost be inclined to despair of
our country if the plans and policies so
definitely outlined by Senator Knox did
not command immeasurably more approx
al and support from thoughtful Ameri-
cans than the vague and equivocal provi-
sions of the Constitution of the League of
Nations even when the latter are COM
mended by the Presidents fluent and
emotional phrase making.-Harvey's
Weekly.

MAYS NAILS CLARK

All loyal Utahns will applaud the
course of Hon. James H. Mays in calling
Hon. Champ Clark on his purported state
ment to the effect that the league consti-
tuition ''has as much chance of being rati-
fled as you have of being pope of Rome"
Mr.. Clark denies hat he said it and Mr..
Mays says that he did, and Utahns will
naturally believe Mr.. Mays. And again
the statement is pruely Clarksonian, for
it was this same Champ Clark that liken-
ed a conscript to a convict. Of course Mr..
Clark may be right, as far as the ratifica-
ton of the treaty is concerned. but that
is not the question AS Congressman Mays
says Clark should come out in the open
and declare himself. And further the
course of Mays is to be commended, while
that of yelling. the apologist for Clark
and his ilk is only worthy Of condemna-
ton -

diately and leaving until later the forma-
ton of an international body of some
sort, not necessarily a league of nations,
as we have come to understand the term,
but tribunal which will consider and de-
eide questions likely to lead to war;"
AS time passes it begins to look as
though the president had better remain
at home and take his own people into his
confidence, instead of reserving and be-
slowing his confidence upon Europeans.

right and can be made right.
1t may be expensive to maintain air
postal routes, but not losing proposition
when we calculate the good that is de-
rived from a competent establishment,
trained personnel, ambitious manufacture
ers and thousands of capable airmen. A
navy, for example, is not directly profit
able, but indirectly is immensely so. An
air fleet will have the advantage of de-
veloping some revenue so that its upkeep
is not entirely matter of national con-
tribution.
The lesson Of 81 ,672, 000,0 900 is severe
one. But the severest lessons teach the
most. And this one should teach us that
we must not again invite the danger of
wasting hundreds of millions through the
lack of experience. 1t is better to invest
a few millions in peace time experimental
ton than billions in wartime foolishness
Let us press on for competent air es-
tablishment.-Chicago Tribune.

MILES HAS COMPANY

For time it looked as though our own
Edwin Miles of Smithfield would be alone
in his opposition to the minimum wage
bill for women, but now we read in the
public print that Senator Funk left the
Presidents chair, took the floor and
made speech against the bill, which was
responsible for its defeat. The way these
boys are ripping up their party platform
is caution, and is perhaps the reason
why Senator Dern saw fit to put through
bill making it necessary for Democrats
to stand by their party platform or get

A MOVIE MASTERPIECE

If the president fails to realize his lit
erary ambitions he still has the movies to
fall back on. Most any enterprising film
producer would be willing to give him the
heavy lead in producing 'That SOn-in-law
of Pas" with Mr.. McAdoo in the title
role. Or better yet he could be featured
as the first ruler of the world who broke
the altitude record of sack and the
Bean Stalk" and wigwagged his wishes
on his subjects by wireless. Here is real
chance for producers to get busy before
+he IT,;..a States senllte brings the pres
ident back to earth and introduces him to
the constitution. And we see no reason
why the amiable William Howard Taft
should not be included in the caste. He
would make an ideal little Jack Horner
sticking his thumb in the information pie
or the Little Boy Blue hugging the Rus
sian bear, thinking all the time he was
caressing Mary's little lamb. And what
a fine Mother Goose Henry Van Dyke
would make reading altruitstic rhymes
and chasing rainbows on a broomstick
while Little Red Riding Hood in the per-
son of the Goddess of Liberty was being
devoured by the political wolves of Eur

They are still discussing the question
why the President landed at Boston.
Some say that it was because he had new
err before officially visited that city. 9th
ers insist that it was with view to poll
tical effect in what is thought to be a
doubtful state" Still others are quite
sure that it was to beard Senator Lodge
in his own bailiwick. It does not seem
to have occurred to anyone that he per-

STRONG WORDS FROM KING

Senator King uses strong words in CIV
ing his opinion on President Wilson's
League of Nations. He says:
IL don't believe the senate will ratify
the league plan, whether it is part of the
treaty or not. The whole situa-'
ton clearly emphasizes the urgent neces-

BEGINNING AT THE WRONG END

Arrangement of the terms of peace
which the allies will dictate to Germany
await formation of league of nations.
Raising of the blockade and shipment OF
food into Germany and former Austria
await conclusion of peace.
But events do not wait. The Sparta
cans-the Bolsheviki of Germany-mak
war on the Ebert government with daily
increasing strength. The Poles fight the
Ukranians and Szechs, and the Germans
and Russian Bolsheviki fight the Poles.
The Italians and Jugo-Slavs are at dag
ders drawn. Everywhere the Bolsheviki
spread their communist doctrine of red
terror, and it finds easy entrance into
many minds when stomachs are empty.
Gaining new courage from the allies
long delay which they may well construe
as weakness born of division, the German
commissioners refuse to surrender ships
without definite assurance of food; and,
as their memory of what war means
grows dim, they may defy the allies to do
their worst. Disintegration in Germany
grows apace, and if the allies delay MAX
ing of peace much longer, there may be
no government with which they can deal
no more than has Russia.
1t begins to seem that the allies have
set about their task at the wrong, ,ell...,
that they should have made peace first
and then have formed league to main
tain it They already had a league Of ma
tions sufficient for the purpose-the
league of nations which won the war. The
first necessity Of all nations after the ar
mistice began was peace and internal or
der, with definite knowledge of boun-
diaries and of the political and economic
conditions under which they must live.
They needed work and food, which are
the best antidotes to Bolshevism. If the
spread of that disease should continue, if
the Germans should finally refuse to give
up their ships, the allies might find that
they must begin all over again the work
of subduing Germany. That country is
disarmed and disunited, but the allies are
by no means as closely united as they
were four months ago. and their armies
would not 60 forward with as much ardor
as they showed in the closing months of
1918. Where millions of men are engaged
it is well to go on with task to COM
plete finish while they are keyed up.
Idealism may fail to attain its ideal,
whereas, it might have been achieved by
realisnl-that practical idealism of which
the chief apostle recently went vest
Portland Oregonian.

that really got up in the air, but not in

any considerable degree. All the agencies
that were to contribute to our success in

gress, who said:
"Not a single boche machine was
brought down on the western front by an

Is the United States to submit to such
studendous folly? Is it not enough that
