Divided Opinion in Regard to the
Latest War Shows What Will
Happen in the Future

the Poles were conducting g war Of
aggression, as they were not, it was
for the League Of Nations to inter-
vene to restrain the Poles. But this
meant, in fact, the use of British
and French troops against the Poles !;
that Is, an alliance with the Bolshe-
visits.
But the fact Is of supreme impor-
tance. The League of Nations was
designed to make war impossible. 1T
was designed to protect the members
of it's circle against attack and to re-
strain them from violence. 1t did
neither the one thing nor the other.
The Russo-Polish conflict was war.
1t was a war in every sense Of the
word, with great armies engaged and
clear issues involved. The move
ments of the armies were revealed
in all the press Of the world. But
the League of Nations organization,
functioning with great regularity we
are told by many Of its warmest sup
porters, merely refused to recognize
/ the existence of the war; it boy
cotted it.
Why? Because there was moth
ing else that it could do. 1t was
unable to stop it, because it had not
even moral influence over the Rus
slams. 1t was unable to intervene on
behalf of the Poles, because the great
powers which would have to supply
the soldiers to make intervention a
fact were hopelessly divided or the
right course to take. Italy was ditto,
Italian Socialists dominating as Brit
ish labor dominated. The United
States was far away and taking a
moral, not material, view.
Why France Acted
France, on the other hand, was all
for action, because the French
masses could see the red marks on
the map moving toward them. They
were on the same continent with the
Bolshevists, and the Bolshevists had
selected France as their chief enemy.
But French action could only be eff
fective IL it were combined with the
action Of other nations. France
could do something. As it turned
out, that something was enough, CIV
en- the genius Of Weygand and the
officers who accompanied him. But
France wanted q larger action, and
in this stood alone among the ma
tions within the League of Nations.
Now the Polish crisis ia over. Po-
land is saved, at least for the mo-
ment, but the lesson stands unnis-
taxable to the whole world. No
nation, small or large, within or
without the League of Nations, need
fear it, or can build hope upon it,
unless the selfish interests of all The
other nations in the league are iden-
tical with those of the country which
would invoke its aid. No nation need
fear to attack the United States,
even If it enters the league, because
of the fact that such an attack
would mean the immediate interven-
ton Of the other nations within the
league.
The thing goes even more deeply.

Balkan Nations Which I lave F orrae,d
aLittle Entente Prove Their
Opinion of the Pact

tons should be the all sufficient
guaranty against foreign agrees
sion, but Belgium has given it up.
She has gone back to a system Of
military alliances, with great repug-
nance and No little domestic quar-
reling, to be sure, for the plain rea-
son that this seems the only way
to arrive at safety.
Europe, then, is having wars and
alliances. The European anarchy
that Loves Dicklnson wrote about so
brilliantly is reasssrting itself. Is
the reason found in the terms Of the
Treaty Of Versailles? No, because
in the case Of Poland and Russia
the terms Of the Versailles pact did
not impose any injustice upon Rus
sia. The issue between Russia and
the West ia not one that could be
disposed Of by the league, except by
war. Russia does not accept the
league; does not accept the prin-
ciplea which 0ndeRlie it, would mot
accept it even IT it were all that
President Wilson and others hoped
that il would be.
Germany and the Hague
Germany refused to permit the
Hague tribunal to take a character
which might have made it useful in
q crisis, because Germany recognized
that peace was itself bar to her;
would be an obstacle in her way if it
were fortified by Hague tribunals.
Germany looked forward to the im-
provement of her position in the
world by war; she saw in war the
only way. Now the Reds of Russia
look forward to the conquest of the
world by q combination of propa-
ganda and promiscuous assassina-
tien. Both are repugnant to the ma
tons within the league. 1t is to the
overthrow of the systems of life and
government Of France, Britain and
the United States that Lenine and
Trotzky look. They would not &C.
cept membership in the league ex-
cept to use the membership to UNDER
mine the states of their neighbors.
In the presence of an enemy, an
avowed enemy, whose deeds are
known Of all men. whose purposes
are proclaimed upon the housetops
by all Red agents and leaders, the
League Of Nations has been unable
to impose unity upon Europe or upon
the world. 1t has been unable to
marshal it's hosts and strike down
the foes it has been unable to coerce
the foe by menace. It's usefulness
has been exactly nil. About the only

feasible in themselves, unless for
some reason the nations which make
up the league are vitality concerned.
The actual policy of the league be-
comes contingent upon the domestic
political situation in each OF the
great powers. A single political
element in the domestic life of
a nation can arrest It's action, as the
Laborites have arrested the action Of
the British, the Socialists that of
Italy.
Americas Influence Small
Would the situation have been
different IL the United States had
entered the league? Obviously not,
for the entrance of the United States
would not have Influenced either the
British labor elements or the Ital-
ian Socialists, both of which are hos
tile to the United States; that is, to
the economic system which prevails
here. The only difference that our
membership would have made would
be the obligation to go to war upon
Russia, which such membership en-
tailed. 1t would have been our duty
to send troops and ships, if we be-
longed to the league. But this would
not have made the British labor

by 8 capitalistic state. The fact that
we were members of the league
would have been rather an added
reason for attacking Poland, since,
after all, the United States is re-
garded by the Bolshevists as the
nation having the economic and po-
litical system most hateful to the
Soviet mind.
AS i'm 1914
We come back, after all, then, to
the situation Of 1914. A new war
has broken out, like the World War.
1t is consequence Of the acts of
nation which rejects the Western
principles under which we, at least
theoretically, aim to live. Prussian-
ism and Bolshevism are both be-
yond our international law by their
own will. They are both states of
war against the West. The allega-
ton that Poland provoked the war
is merest moonshine. Belgium
served as the wicked child in Ger
man legend indefinitely, but the at
tack on Belgium was to get at
France, and the attack on Poland

eyes sir, I have come forty miles
today just specially to get Tanlac, and
if it was necessary would go even
farther than that was the remarka-
bic statement made by Carl Sweno,
who lives on Route No. a, White
Water, Wis, when he called at the
Central Drug Co., in Milwaukee, a'few
days ago.

taking Tanlac," continued Mr.. Sweno,
"that I lost fifteen pounds in two
weeks time and was almost a COM
plete nervous and physical wreck, but
now my troubles have all left me, |

a year ago that my stomach went back
on me and since that time suffered
all the agony that goes with indiges-
ton, rheumatism, nervousness, back
ache and sleeplessness. My appetite
was next to nothing, and when / did

a burning like fire in my chest and
stomach. I was so choked up had to

and pains in my stomach. | had
rheumatism through my whole body,
all my joints would get stiff, especially
from my hips down, and the pains
were so awful in my shoulders l could
not raise my arm above my head. The
muscles in my legs cramped up into
knots and had to sleep on my back,
for if I lay on one side my leg would
go to sleep. had awful pains across
my back and if stopped over it was
agony to try to straighten up again.
Some nights I did not sleep wink,
but would roll and toss and finally get
out of bed and walk the floor. Every
morning had bad taste in my mouth
and my tongue was coated all the time
I had such severe headache spells
thought my head would split open, and

stand up. I was so nervous I shook
like leaf, and I lost weight until
was as weak as rag.

WIFE TURNS TABLES
IN DIVORCE MIDDLE

When Justice Stafford dismissed
the petition of Jesse A. Angel, an
accountant. for an absolute divorce
from Mrs Catherine G. NJ. Angel in
Equity Court Monday, it did not end
the case.
Mrs. Angel turned the tables
yesterday and sued him for an an
nulment of their marriage of June
3, 1918. in Baltimore.
This is the third time Angel has
figured in divorce proceedings. The
first time was when William Mueller,
first husband of Mrs. Angel sued
her for an absolute divorce and
named Angel as correspondent and
won his case.
Angel married the then Mrs.
Mueller. Later he sued her for an
absolute divorce and lost his case.
Mrs. Angel who was Mrs. Mueller,
now asks the court for an annul-
ment on the grounds that Angel
had no legal right TO marry her
because he was the guilty party in
Mueller's suit for an absolute di-
NTOrCe.

Mrs. Angel when her present hus-
band sued her. filed the annulment
