Humanity First

The ROckefellers have contributed
$4,000 to the United Building Fund
Of the Federated Jewish Charities.
~ the beginning Of the campaign
for $l0,000,000 to provide means for
improvements sorely needed by thir-
ty-one charitable institutions the
plan was to call only upon the Jews
Of the city.
But happily there are many who
believe that charity knows no creed.
John u. Rockefeller, jr., asked that
his father and he be allowed to help.
"Since Jews and Christians alike are
admitted to practically all Of the in
stitutions involved" Mr.. Rockefeller
wrote to Colonel Guinzburg, chair
man Of the campaign committee,
"my father and I would count it a
privilege to be permitted to partici-
pate with our Jewish fellow-citizens
in the present enterprise.'
The offer was accepted. AS Colonel
Guinzburg wrote in reply: Social
service is the common ground upon
which Jew and Gentle may gather
and work together; humanity's bet
terment is the meeting ground Of all
races and creeds."

Amendments. After Signing

Those who favor unconditional
ratification Of the treaty always re-
sort in the last extremity to the same
argument. That is, that though the
defects of the covenant may be nu-
merous and patent, they can all be
cured after the league becomes a 60
ing concern by the process Of amend
ment.
Said The Globe the other days.
Article XXVI Of the covenant pro-
vides that amendments to this cove
nant will take effect when ratified by
the members Of the league whose rep
resentatives compose the council md
by majority Of the members Of the
league whose representatives compose
the assembly, This provision leaves
the door open for an indefinite amount
of alteration in the leagues consti-
tuition as and if experience shows
that such alteration is desirable"
To what extent will amendment be
practicable under this provision?
What is the process of amendment?
Article XXVI doesn't say that the
council may amend by a unanimous
vote and the assembly by majority
vote. The notifications must be
made by the member states, pre-
sumably by the same process by
which the treaty was ratified. That
involves with many Of the nations
or near nations concerned not only
approval by the executive, but con-
currence by one or both branches of
the legislative department. Any
amendment, for instance, accepted
by the United States would have to
obtain q two-thrds majority in the
Senate.
How would the United States fare
in controversial matters like the re-
tention Of freedom of action with
regard to immigration, or the safe
Suardlng OF tnc monroe doctrine, or
the right to construe moral obliga-
tions arising under Article X, if we
were to accept the covenant as it
stands and seek to have it amended
later? At present our single voice
is sufficient to secure us the guar
antees which we ask. After Joining
the league we should have to win
the approval of the eight other gov
ernments represented in the council
and majority of the governments
represented in the assembly. We
would exchange certainty for a
precar'ous dependence on the COM
plaisance of other nations.
New-York tribune., 1919-10-13

dominions, colonies and dependencies
which are members Of the league
can have an international difference
with any other member?
Premier Borden regards Canada
as a nation and the Britannia COM
monwealth as itself smaller league
Of nations within the larger league.
This view is absolutely at variance
with the explanations which the
President made to the Senate Com
mittee on Foreign Relations on
August 19 last. The contradiction
is so radical as to make it dangerous
to accept the covenant without a
definite understanding on this point.
The American public would be
glad to see Canada enter the league
as a separate nation if that is Can
ada's preference. Is she or is she
not already separate nation? That
is a question to which no interpreter
Of the covenant at Washington has
yet been able to give satisfactory
answer.

are the only effective military power
in the Baltic region. Though the
Ebert regime disowns them publicly,
1t Is undoubtedly giving them en-
couraeement in their efforts to take
over the local governments. Colonel
Avoloff- -Bermondt, nominally repre-
senting the Russian anti Bolshe-
visits. has proclaimed himself Gov
ernor General Of Lettonia and as
sumed command of the forces which
are trying to overthrow the existing
Lettish order. Thus, the revolution
which aims at revival Of German
control, is camouhaged as a diver
sion on the Baltic front helpful to
Denikin and Kolchak.
The ease with which Riga was
captured shows how powerful the
ncw military combination is. Won

terfered with by the peace confer
ence. And the latter can interfere
only in roundabout way, through
pressure on Berlin, since it has
chosen to pursue the mistaken pol
icy Of disbanding the Allied armies
and relying exclusively on moral
and economic means to sustain its
authority.
The drafting Of the German
treaty didn't impose peace on Eu-
rope. Peace exists as yet only in ~
relative sense. Eastern and south
central Europe are still in state
of war, and the ability Of the confer
cncc to enforce its decisions IN those
regions has almost reached the van
ishing point.
Without military power the coun-
Gil at Paris can do little or nothing.
Some of its most difficult work is
stll ahead Of it. 1t must regret the
serious blunder Of Allied demobiliza-
tion while European pacifcation

now to be happily ironed out and the
good points of both measures COM
bined in what is now referred to as
the United bill.
The salient point of this bill is
that it provides for the establish
mcnt Of a Department of Acronau-
tics under a director who shall not
be a member of the Cabinet, but who
shall be responsible directly to the
President. The clause limiting the
salary of this man to $4,000 a year
is wisely eliminated. Under the
United bill the Director Of Aero
nautics will be charged with the es-
tablishment at once Of a separate air
force for the defence of the nation.
1t requires him to formulate regula-
tions for flying and it directs him to
cooperate at once with municipalities
and other public agencies in provid-
ing landing fields.
If this measure becomes a law it
will make certain the proper devel-
opnent of aviation along both mill
tary and civil lines. 1t is said to
have the support of both Republican
and Democratic leaders. It is to be
/ hoped that this is true.
