New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1919-02-09
First President?

Another great question which agitates
the minds-not only in Germany but
also in other countries-which. not al
together to their satisfaction, have to
continue their existence on the same
planet with the Germans, is: Who will
be the first president Of the German re-
public?
The recent resignation of Arthur Won
Gwinner, one of the foremost German
financiers, from the presidency of the
Deutsche Bank gave rise to the con-
lecture that he aspires to and is encour-
aged regarding the post Of the head
executive Of the "democratized" Father
land
Another presidential possibility" is
Friedrich Naumann, publicist and
famous sponsor of the scheme Of
Prussian world domination through
"Mitteleuropa." "The Kansas City
Star" says of him:
SIT was Naumann who created a sensa
ton in Europe early in 1917 with his book
4hitteIcuIOpd' III InlS NOlume Ndutuoh"
put into detailed form the long entertained
German ambitions for a great central
European state dominated by Germany. He
called upon Germany and Austria Hun
gary to enter into union amalgamating
their military and economic functions.
"Naumann's election as president of Ger
many could hardly be promising of changed
Germany. At best his record indicates he
would be only a handy go-between for the
Socialists and the Junkers"
The name of Prince Macmillan OF
Baden, last chancellor of imperial Ger
many, has also been Aoated, and, finally
Prince Lichnowsky, former ambassador
in London and author of the famous
revelations that proved conclusively'
from the German side, Germany's re-
sponsibility for the war, is running as =
"bad fourth" In view of the fact tha'
he was the only German statesman VINO
cared and dared to take an honest
stand against the terrible crime COM
mitted by his country against humanity,
and considering the lack of evidence OF
a genuine change of the German heart
his prospects can hardly be called ex-
cessively ,g:-''.t.

What Sort of Republic

wv THAT will the constitution of
M the new German republic be
w like? Before long the world
will know. That it will be

Democrats, and Centrists, stand for

tions. 1t seems equally certain that the
republic will be organized on federal

Retaining the Fact

"The Chicago Tribune does not feel
that Monroe Doctrine included in the
league plan can successfully supersede
the one enunciated by an American
President:
"Tt is an old fact-and safe fact-that
the United States has the Monroe Doctrine.
We hope, if we change the name for it,
We retain the fact. If the peace scheme
goes through it will be called a mandate.
1--WE never have asked permission of Eu-
rope to keep Europe out of politics in the
Western Hemisphere. If Europe grants
mandate to the United States for This pur-
pose, in the league of nations, we zzay thank
Europe for nothing. So long as anything
of the spirit of Theodore Roosevelt, giving
the German feet forty-eight hours to get
out of Venezuelan waters, remains as the
American spirit, Europe's consent will not
be required
"That is an old fact. We hope the Ameri-
can people will not be deceived if il gets
a new mask and new face. What can
the league of nations be that has not been
except something which is new in words
and appearances!
1.-The New York World" expressing
it's impotence with "the Lodges, the
Knoxes, The Borahs, the Hardings and
the Johnsons," declares that
unless there is a peace that is under
written by the nations that crushed Prus-
sianism, the ultimate victory will rest with
Germany. It will be impossible to collect
the indemnities, it will be impossible to
guarantee the boundaries of Europe, it will
be impossible to prevent the organization
of new coalition to crush France and the
small nations, it will be impossible to
stabilize in any way the triumph of democ-
racy which has cost so much blood and
. treasure, and it will be impossible to pre-
vent repetition of this war"
A Southern newspaper, 'The Charles
ton News and Courier" also comes to
the rescue of the league:
at is plain that the United States cannot
be member of a cooperative society of
nations without effecting radical change
in the whole theory and practice of its for
eign policy; and there will be many who
viii oppose this change, as Mr. Borah is al
ready opposing it.
"The President will have y make fight
for his plan, and it may be hard fight;
but so far the mountebank antics of most
OF the leaders of the opposition have helped
rather than hindered him"
Another Middle Western newspaper,
The ST. Paul Pioneer Press" observes
that Senator Poindexter's argument of
non-European interference is no whit
different than the cry of German propa-
gandists when it appeared America
zyntsJd onfox Pho ,sYar.
Senator Pojndexter, Of Washington, in a
New York address urged that the United
States cxtricatc itsclf as quickly as posi-
bic from European politics. With our
present tasks in Europe completed, he de-
Shared, the nation should turn all ts encr-
gies TO the interests Of America, which,
he said, lis wholly in the Westers Henri
sphere.

sounds strangely like that of the prof. Huns

What Are the Senate and
Monroe Doctrine?

T>HE league of nations is being
made in Paris, but the crystal
lization of American sentiment
about it three cusand miles
away may be expected to have great
deal to do with the successful institution
of it. The Senate does not take kindly
to propositions that may enter into the
formation of the league, ard recently
discussion over it's articles has waged
sharply on the Senate floor.
The Tribune sees a menace to real
and satisfactory settlement in the fact
that the Senate is still in the dark as to
what is going on in Paris. The Tri-
bune comments:
1T may be the desire of the chief Euro
pean powers to break down the tradi-
tion of American isolation and to throw
on the United States a full share of re-
sponsibility for the guardianship of the
weaker nations and peoples of the Old
World. But most Americans still loath
to abandon the theory that the guardian
shin of the western continents, which we
have assumed under the Monroe Doctrine,
sufficiently engrosses u.s."
Will the league of nations take
America out of it's traditional policy of
isolation from world affairs? Will the
new league invalidate the American
stand. as expressed in the Monroe Doc
trine. with regard to European inter
ference in American territory? Senators
Knox, Poindexter and Borah believe
it will. and have attacked vigorously
any indication from Paris that the
American delegation would commit the
United States to such course. This IS
how "The New York Evening Sun" puts
the matter:
.>But it seems more and more certain
from day to day that the league plans
nut forward by President Wilson and hav
ing the tentative acceptance of Britain and
Italy, perhaps other governments as well,
assume to supersede the Monroe Doctrine.
The Suns dispatches put it this way, that
the Monroe Doctrine is unnecessary, as
the protection it was designed to afford
America is provided by the league ITSELF
And again they tell of the insistence of the
Presidents friends here upon the conten-
ton that the league of nations is an ex-
tension of the Monroe Doctrine Now, we
believe that no project aiming to supplant
or supersede the Monroe Doctrine, or to
put American rights and interests, Ameri-
can safety and American dignity into sort
of trust with the powers of Europe and
Asia as guardians, will ever be ratified by
the Senate of the United States least OF
all by the coming Senate; it will never be
tolerated by the American people"

cept in parts of Mesa. Delta and Mont
