unity were rs necessary to put down
a Semmon enemy two years ago as
they may become in the future to
crusl another militarist miscreant
among the nations of the world.
Mr.. Wilson Is trying to disclose both
by his answers to senatorial ques-
tions on Tuesday and by his announc-
ed conception today of our moral
union with the allies that the cause
of world freedom would have sooner
or later drawn US into the European
maelstrom irrespective of the attacks
On American ships, and that having
once become a partner in winning the
peace of the world the United States
cannot very well withdraw when the
formulas for preserving peace are
drawn.
So the President opposes a separate
resolution by Congress declaring a
state of war at an end and denounceS
it with the same vigor that he ex-
hibited whenever the notion of sep
arate peace with Germany was sug-
gested while the war was on. Many
time il was asked whether the
United States, in view of the fact that
she never signed any pledge against
separate peace. would feel free to
make a separate peace with Germany.
But again and again it was stated Of
f1cially that while the United States
did not consider herself an ally" she
was nevertheless an associate" and
as such morally bound to act in uni
son with her associates toward the
common enGfl-.

Settles Peace Point.

But toG;..'s declaration on the part
of the President that even if he le-
gally could do so, he never would pro-
claim a state of peace in separation
from our European associates, prac-
tically settles that point.
1t also moves the controversy a
stage forward. For, If the republican
senators insist on putting reserva-
tions in the ratifying resolution, in
stead of in a separate resolution. as
indicated by President Wilson and Of
fered by Senator Pittman Of Nevada.
the President could withdraw the
treaty from the Senate and announce
to the other powers that a new treaty
with Germany would have to be
drawn. so far as the United States is
, olicerned. lnasmuch as the repub-
licans object to article Of the treaty,
which contains the covenant of the
league of nations, Mr. Wilson would
be free to negotiate another pact with
the league excluded.
On the other hand. Mr.. Wilson. as
the chief executive of the nation. has
full power to make treaties, and he
believes SO thoroughly in a league of

LEAGUE STRUGGLE
ONE OF PROCEDURE
President ''HoIds Most of
Cards" and Makes His At
titude Clear.
LINES CLOSELY DRAWN
BY DAVID LAWRENCE.

President Wilson today took another
step which tends even more clearly than
anything that has preceded to ac-
centuate the issue as between him and
the republican party in the Senate.
He fatty refuses to proclaim state
of peace if the pending treaty is not
ratified. His first reason is that he
has not the power, but that is a ques-
tion of legal Interpretation. But the
second reason Is along the line OF Mr..
wilson's conception of moral obliga-
lions" which he stressed at the Tues
day conference with the Senate for
eign relations committee at the White
HouSe-he says to Senator Fail IT
would be "a stain upon our national
honor which we never could enace
IT, after sending our men to the bat
tlefield to fight the common cause.

the war in the settlement of the
terms of peace and dissociate our
selves from all responsibility with re-
sara to tuose terms.

centers on Simple Question.

.Centers on Simple Question.
Unless Mr.. Wilson absolutely re-
verses himself. therefore. the struggle
between him and the Senate must
center for the next week or month en-
tirely on simple question of pro-
cedure. The President holds most of
the cards-the Constitution gave him
a big advantage in being able to ne
gotiate and sign peace treaties.
1t isn't like a domestic law that can
be passed over his veto by two-thirds
vote. No such conflict between the
executive and legislative branches Of
the government involving so many
signatories to a treaty has occurred
before and the legal consequences are
enough to make many international
lawyers rich in fees for years to come.
Commercial as well as financial rela-
tions will be subject to varied in
depreciation.
But the events of the last three
mite lines of cleavage on mooted points
in the treaty. Mr.. Wilson has, to be
sure. paved the way for his appeal to
the country on the ground that his
opponents want no league of nations
whatsoever. This would be embar-
RAISING for the republicans. as some Of
their number really want a concert OF
power to maintain peace. and the ia
nous fifth paragraph of the Knox
resolution which pledged the United
States to make common cause for
world peace, whenever an emergency
threatened. still represents the view Of
many republicans.
Others will never give up their op-
position to further association with
Europe and will even vote against the
Franco-American treaty. Some of
these men are consistent. In their
hearts they really opposed the war
with Germany and they didn't want
ENHANCEMENT with Europe then any
more than they do now. But many
members Of Congress voted on the
war resolutions as many Of them did
on the prohibition question-they
feared their constituents. They didn't
vote their personal convictions. So
today-a large class is really giving
vent to pent-up views about getting
into Europe's affairs.
President Wilson, however, discloses
that he believed our participation in
the war was inevitable. irrespective

pockets of American taxpayers will
have been Of doubtful value, for the

Will Be Ineffective.

Strategically the republicans are
fighting for reservations to be en-
bodied in the ratifying resolution.
They argue that otherwise reserva-
tions will be ineffective. But some of
them also think opposition to the
league and peace treaty is growing
throughout the country and that the
American people would not lose much
sleep if the whole thing went by de-
fault.
Some argue America would be bet
ter off. To this Mr.. Wilson applies
his argument against national selfish
ness and shirking of moral obliga
tions. Thus the issue is rapidly be-
coming what so many senators de-
MED 1T ever would be, a question be-
tween a league of nations to pre-
serve peace or no league of nations
and American isolation.
