vote apiece. That would give us forty
nine votes as against Great Britain's five.
If Scotland Ireland and Wales are given
self government under new federal plan
we would concede them each vote
and for that matter, even the self govern
ing provinces of the colonies.
This suggestion is not made as irony
merely 1t is intended quite seriously to
emphasize the fact that representation in
the lower or basic chamber of the league
of nations should have some relation to
population If the league is fairly to rep
resent the self governing peoples of the
world the question of numbers cannot be
ignored.
Why should Canada have vote in the
League and New York one-forty-eight
of a vote? Canada has population of
1861, coo, New York, 10,646,989, to say
nothing of Pennsylvania with a popula-
ton of 8,798,067 South Africa would
have vote with population of $685. 1874
and Illinois one-forty-eighth of vote
with a population of 6,317,734, or Ohio
with population of 5,273,814. Australia
would have vote with population of
4,896,000 and Texas one-forty-eighth of a
vote with population of 4,601 ,279. New
Zealand would have vote with a popu-
lation of 1 100000 and Connecticut one
forty-eighth of vote with population
of 1,114,000 There are thirty-two self
governing commonwealth of the Ameri-
can union each of which has population
greater than New Zealand; yet altogeth-
er they would have only two-thirds of a
vote as against New Zealand's full vote.
Three American states have population
larger than all four of the British self
governing colonists, but they would have
only one-twelfth of vote as against the
colonies four votes.
The problem of the basis of represen-
tation has evidently been shirked at Par
is But if the league Of nations is not to
be dominated by the executive council, in
which representation is confined to the
greater powers associated in the war, it
will have to be solved, not shelved.-Chi-

waiting colonials that Governor Gates had
at last determined to crush liberty by
force Americans have held before the
world the ideals of freedom and Justice.
In 1872 to 1914 we indicated our right
to sail ships freely upon the seas without
asking permission of any nation. In the
days of the Civil war we purged our body
polite of poisons of slavery. We raised
stricken and shackled Cuba from the
blood welter of an ancient despotism and
babe her gaze with unflinching eyes upon
the torch of liberty and enlightening the
world.
Once more the clouds of barbarism are
sweeping, as in the olden days, from the
borders of Asia into Europe Let us keep
that torch aloft so that its shafts of light
may pierce those clouds and transfix the
zealots of anarchy and brutality with ter
ror. And when Europe shall have set her
house in order, shall have made herself fit
for true liberty and justice, then we can
join with her in some League of Nations
that will guarantee peace and pave the
way for international justice.
1t is our hope that we may be permit
ted to form that league soon, but can we
afford to form it amid the wreck of ma
tons? You may hear it said that if it is
not formed now it never will be formed,
but is it not true rather that if it is
formed now it will not endure?
At all events let America be true to it.
self, true to its old ideals, ready to help
where it may, but let it avoid entangling
alliances that will help neither itself nor
others.
Today we have a League of Nations,
but it is league for war. 1t will be
called upon to enforce the terms of peace
and no doubt we shall be asked to do our
part. 1t is the plan to incorporate the
League of Nations in the treaty of peace
and the argument is that peace can best
be maintained by the machinery of the
league. But after all is said and done we
shall have merely an alliance for a long
time, an alliance to compel peace by force
of arms. ~ u

which will maintain peace permanently

is 1T GOOD BUSINESS FOR
AMERICA?

Seattle is planning on taking over it's
street car system as municipal under
taking at an expense of some SIS, 100000.
1t will thereby lose its annual tax revenue
from the system which amounts to about
$250,0O0 year.
There is no claim made and no one Is
foolish enough to imagine there will be
any reduction in street car fares.
On the contrary, wherever the govern
ment or municipalities have taken over
traction systems the fares have been in
creased more than the private companies
were permitted to charge. Witness as
samples the heavy advance in rates on
railroads, more than the private compan-
les ever asked, and an increase from
five to an eight cent fare on the Boston
Traction system, under public manage
ment. SeaA
When the politicians increase rates it's
alright, but when private company asks
a necessary increase they are accused of
robbery.
If the public ownership advocates and
socialists had their way they would take
all the railroads, all the wire lines, all the
public utilities, our banking and insur-
ance systems and many other lines of in
dustry away from private owners and
load them on the city, state OF nation at
the expense of the taxpayer. Then a city
like Sattle would probably lose $2,500000
year taxes instead of $250,000.
Seattle has not reduced public expense
$2o0,000 year to make up for lost taxes;
instead public expense has been increased
by added public officials to manage the
system. And so it is in all forms OF politi-
cal ownership and operation of business.
The people pay increased taxes, Off
eial control gains firmer seat in the sad
die and prepares to extend its hold to 9th
er lines of industry, service and accom-
mediation of the public becomes dead
letter true Americanism and its incen-
tive for individual enterprise and initia-
tive, is driven closer and closer to the wall.
The extension of public ownership can
only mean ultimate common ownership
of lands and industries. Do we want this?

DEMOCRATS AND THE LEAGUE

To obscure the significance of their de-
feat and discontinue the Democrats are
vociferously poclaiming change of front
on the part of the thirty-nine Republicans
who signed the round robin warning Pres
ident Wilson that the League of Nations
covenant would not be ratified in the form
to which he has given his assent. The
senators are represented as returning to
Washington in chastened mood because
they have heard from their constituents
and have begun to realize that the League
of Nations is supported by great major
ity of the people.
Every days news from Paris demon
strates the triumph of the Republican sen
ators. Apparently it is President Wilson
who is in a chastened mood, for he went
away vowing to drive his senatorial OPP
ponents out of public life and now he is
humbly announcing that some, at least
of the amendments they proposed are be-
ing Incorporated in the covenant.
1t is quite true that a few senators
urged the rejection of any treaty which
should make the United States a member
of League of Nations. Virtually all of
the Republican senators, however, limit

glazing flaws in the covenant. They
pointed out these flaws so luninously
that everyone except the, President saw
them. A mighty wave of protest went
through the nation like a prairie fire.
Former President Taft, who had taken
the position at the very outset that the GOV
enant was sacred and not to be changed
except with reference to the Monroe doc
trine, gradually saw the light in the east
as he moved toward the Atlantic and be-
came more and more patient with the
critics Of the covenant.
1t was to Democratic standpatters who
met with defeat. They declared the
president impeccable and his covenant
infallible They demanded that the Unit
ed States senators close their eyes and
blindly vote as the President commanded.
The Republicans, however, insisted up
on perusing the productive paths of con-
structive criticism. Wherever they went
they found the people open to conviction
On every salient point they won the peo-
pie to their side. Soon the reaction began
to be felt at the Quai D'Orsay and the
European delegates, including the Brit
ish, who had hoped to bind the United
States by compact which provided for
perpetual membership, commenced to

FINE, FINE!

FINE, FINE!
The Salt Lake Tribune in its Sunday
issue says:
Sentiment in favor of league Of ma
tons has become very pronounced in this
country and it is confidently expected that
the senate will ratify the agreement reach
ed at Paris. The covenant brought over
here by President Wilson was merely ten
tative, and it undoubtedly has been am
ended to meet the views of former Presi-
dent Taft and other leaders who have long
been champions Of the league of nations
idea The Springfield Republican believes
that Mr.. Wilson, with draft of plan for
league of nations in his pocket accept
ed the plan of General SHUTS as basis in
order that it might not be said that he
was trying to cram his views down the
threats of the assembled representatives
of the leading nations of the world. The
next step, it is now limited, was to make
this plan public, draw the fire of the OPP
position and then amend it in accordance
with the known wishes of the people or
the United States. We have no means of
knowing whether the story is true or
false, but it appears plausible"
To which we say "fine," "fine.' If the
document has been amended so as to con-
form to the wishes of the people of the
tUnited States" that is "fine," "fine." Ii
the President has changed and amended
a document that as the Tribune says was
merely tentative" and that was as the
President said passed after the most
careful examination by each member of
the committee" and for which, as. the
president said there is good and suffi-
cient reason for the phraseology and sub
views of president Taft and other lead
ers" and at the same time to meet the
views of the people of the United States,
that is certainly fine.
Along with President Taft, and espe-
cially the other leaders the Tribune will
certainly class President Lowell of Har-
ward, the Presidents champion. 1t will be
recalled that in the famous Lodge-Lowell
debate President Lowell said:
'.In the first place want to agree most
heartily with Senator Lodge that this is
a very badly drawn instrument.
The whole of this business, will admit,
drafted; it is very easily misunderstood.
"@ . / assume that of course this
thing will be redrafted. . In
places, it is so Obscure that its meaning is
often inaccurately expressed and some
times doubtful. DO they
agree to 90 to war? 1t seems to me that
thai is doubtful and again badly drawn"
One 0 fthe mysteries is that the Presi-
dent would accept such an imperfect doc
ument "as basis in order that it might
not be said he was trying to cram his
views down the throats Of the assembled
representatives of the leading nations of
the world" This puts the President in a
new role, that of accepting defective
document as tentative" for the world
powers, and passed after the most care
full examination" and with perfect
"phraseology" for the people of the Unit
ed States. 1t would now seem in order
for the Tribune to have the President re-
call his Boston speech But after all, if it
now conforms TO the wishes of the people
of the United States, that is "fine,"
"fine"

WHAT is AMERICAS DUTY?

All eastern Europe is being flooded
with Bolshevism. Only yesterday the
barriers of the old civilization were car
ried away in Hungary and the flood Ov-
erran the country like the tidal waves Of
barbarism which swept out of Asia in the
early Christian ages and submerged the
civilization of Greece and of Rome.
In such crisis what is the duty of Eur
ope, of America? Let us say that it is
the duty of Europe to carry on ceaseless
warfare against the Bolsheviki. What,
then, is our duty? Are we required to
remain in Euope till the last Bolshevih
is dead?
No sooner has the covenant of League
of Nations been promulgated than ma
tons which were to become members of
the league are threatened with extinction
before their boundaries have even been
agreed upon. AS member of the league
under the present covenant, we would be
required to maintain their territorial in
tegrity and existing political independ-
ence. But what if they capitulate to Boil
shevism? What if Poland, Rumania,
Czecho Slovakia, Jugo Slavia and Serbia
adopt the Soviet form of government and
commit themselves to Russian anarchy
and the social system of free love? Shall
we recognize them and admit them to the
League of Nations and shall we fight for
them and their institutions?
In the present turbulent state of Eur
ope would it not be better to wait until
European nations have established endur-
ing governments? We must ask our
selves this question in all seriousness be-
cause we must know who are to be our
associates in the league. Democracy can
not consort with anarchy; Christian civil
ization cannot be at peace with those who
scott at all religion and morality.
If Europe promptly vanquishes Boil
sheyism or even compromises with it the
chance of establishing the league will be
brighter, but the present indications are
that revolution will not run its course in
a few months, nor, in fact, in few years.
America can still serve humanity, as of
old, by example. !. The Statue of Liberty
will stand in New York Harbor and shed
ever frightening rays across the world.
1t has been by example that we have
served the world best. 1t is not merely Of
recent years that we have preached hber-
ty, justice and democracy. From the
day that Paul Revere rode through every
Middlesex village and farm and told the

show spirit of reconciliation.
The 2lthors of the covenant could no
longer defend it as an inspired document
sprung full-fledged from he brain of Jo-
Wan wisdom. The thirty nine United
States senators had made it look like a
sieve.
Hastily the covenant commission began
to revise its work and consider the
amendments of the Republican senators.
Whether all of them will be adopted we
do not wish to prophesy. but it is safe to
say that the new covenant will contain an
explicit provision for the withdrawal of
member nations from the league, a provi-
sion as to the exact powers and limita-
tions of the executive council a provision
safeguarding the Monroe doctrine, pro-
vision that no member shall become a
mandatory without it's consent, and pro-
vision which shall modify Article 10 re-
curing the "high contracting parties" to
preserve against external aggression the
territorial integrity and existing indepen-
dence of all states, members of the league.
The Democrats shut themselves up in
an impenetrable fog and cried out that
the ways of Wilson were just and that no
fault was to be found in him. The Repub-
licans on the other hand, at once set about
the task of intelligent criticism.
The result has been the enlightenment
even of Democratic sunworshippers.-
