THE SICK WHITE HOUSE MAN
Chicago Tribune


President Wilson, returning from
Paris, made his appeal to the people for
support against the senate and for the
covenant Of the league Of nations by
saying that the United States had given
it's word and must not fail.
Every person who knows the United
States constitution knew that the Unit
ed States had not given its word and
could not give its word until two thirds
of the Senate consented. Ambassador
Grey, for the British government, says
it was understood the United States
had given no pledges uutil the senate
had given them.
Mr. Wilson said that the United States
would break the heart of the world if it
did not accept without change of
word the covenant he had signed in
Paris MIR. Grey says that the British
are not quite willing to accept the Unit
ed States in the league with its reserv-
atoms, but that the British think the
United States is right in protecting it.
self with these reservations The
French government has given the same
assurances.
Mr.. Wilson thus made two attacks
upon the credulity Of the people by whom
he was elected president to serve their
interests He called upon the American
sense Of honor when that honor was not
involved He called upon its humanity
for suffering Europe when suffering
Europe said that what he wanted was
not needed He asked the United States
TO make sacrifices of its sovereignty
and Europe ioes not ask that they be
made.
An ineSphcable leader Of this nation,
III in bed for months. unable TO consult

ambassadors, he finds that every reason
he has urged for the surrender of Amer
lean rights is erased by the very peoples
in whose behalf he urged the surrender
and nothing remains but the indomit-
able determination 20 have his way even
if he is unable either physically or men
tally to explain why he alone in the world
