Probably Not So Far Apar,

THERE seems to be 10 good reason far

because PRESIDENT Wilson and Premier Gle
menceau arc not in accord on the formers
proposal for league Of nations The Tiger
OF Franco at no time has declared that his
opposition to such league is unalterabe. no
mas not said that he could not be convinced
lie mas stated frankly and boldly that he
favors an alliance of nations built along the
ola FAMILIAR lines OF the balance OF power
and Will be guided by that idea at the pc,ce
table, but he has not said that failing i'm
this. he would nterpose insurmountabIo oh
stacies to the Wilson plan. Should he do
that, the race OF the International situation
would DC changed. and there might be real
cause for alarm over future DEVELOPMENTS
Great Britain holds the key to the diff
Guilty, if there is difficulty. and Great Britain
through its Premier and other leading states
men, has Endorsed, and unquestionably will
support, the platform for league of nations
Neither Is there any question but that the
views or Great Britain and the United States
II they work hand in hand, will prevail NJ
the peace table. An old fashioned alliance
with the United States as one of its units
is ont OF the question. President Wilson has
said it haty, and in thus following the pre-
cepts and warnings laid down by George
Washington he has the united Support of the
American people
Should the unexpected happen and Grea,
Britain swing over to the side OF Clemcnceau
then nothing would be left for this country
TO do but TO withdraw, and as il has proved
itself fully capable OF looking after its own
interests in the past, so it will do in the
future. But with Great Britain supporting
Wilson. as ii surely will Clemenceau Is not
nkely TO prove obdurate, but will yield his
personal views and wishes to the alliance
plan, which has failed miserably to prc-
serve the peace OF Europe, and give his CO.
operation to that program which has been
subscribed to by so large portion of the
world as the only one which presents solid
ground for hope In the prevention of other
wars In fact his intmation that a league az
nations might be carried out concidentally
with the drafting OF the treaty of peace" is
evidence that he is not too stubbornly on
posed to it. At least the Tigers hold

Wilson does now. Contemporary
chronicles tell much OF her presence
