The first steps toward the organi-

being reconstructed and the fixing Of
her boundaries gave rise to many COLI
troversies between the Poles and sur
rounding peoples. The question of
whether a League of Nations should
be created as a means of preventing
future wars was one OF the first to be
taken up by the peace conference. On
January Is the conference formally
declared In favor of the establishment
OF League of Nations. and a com

World Found Great Difficulty in
Returning From War to
Peace Conditions.
MAKING THE GERMAN TREATY
Europe IN State OF Eement. While
The United States Was Struggling
With Grave Industrial and Eco
nomic Problems.
Hv DONALD r. EiGGS,

After nearly five years OF frightful
warfare, in which all Of the great pow
ers and many of the smaller nations
had been involved, the world found II
difficult TO return to anything like nor
NAL conditions during the year 1919
While the armistice which was signed
~ the closing weeks OF 1913 brought
q cessation Of hostilities between the
two groups OF nations that had been
engaged In the great struggle, did
mot bring peace to all the peoples In
yolved. Technically the world still
was at war throughout practically all
Of the year just closed as the peace
treaty which was framed In Paris
after months Of negotiation could not
De made fully effective until ratified
" the great powers and formally pro-
mulgated by the peace conference.
Failure Of the United States senate to
ratify the treaty, because of opposition
to the covenant Of the League of Ma
lions. which was made a part or the
peace treaty. prevented the formal
declaration of peace until more than
a year after the armistice was signed
Internal disorders and territorial
disputes arising from the establish
ment of many new nations kept a
large part of Europe in turmoil. Such
a complete remaking of the map OF
Europe as resulted from the great war
naturally could not be accomplished
without friction. The great empire OF
Austria Hungary had fallen to pieces
with the defeat of the central powers
and out of the wreckage new states
arose. These new natiOns-Austria,
Hungary, Poland and the Czech and
Jugoslav states-cOuld not establish
their new boundaries without friction
among themselves and with their
neighbOrs. The new government OF
Germany, which had been transformed
into a republic. was striving to main
tain itself against the attacks of radi-
cal elements. Russia was torn by
civil strife, with half dozen groups
fighting for the mastery. At times
world peace seemed still far of, but as
the year passed conditions became
more settled and 1t seemed probable
that with the formal PRONUNCIATION OF
the peace treaty the chaos into which
Europe had been thrown would pass
In the United States conditions were
not so unsettled as In the nations that
had been longer engaged in the war
but here. as in Europe, the transition
from q war to peace basis was not
easy. New Industrial problems hat
been created. The high cost OF living
caused labor to make insistent and re
peated demands for higher wages and
resulted in numerous strikes among
all classes Of workers. Radical lead
ers took advantage of the unrest that
existed to recruit their forces and
they became so active that the con
Stituted authorities Of the nation
finally found it necessary to take de
termined steps to suppress disloya

IMMIGRATION.

With the ports. of entry clogged with immigrants there is presented no small problem before this country The turn ing of the tide not only brings greater numbers but it finds large body of Eu- ropeans seeking to get to these shores who may or may not be desirable and along with them there is likely to come conditions that are most undesirable.
 It is not because of the immigrant who is willing and ready. to be assimilated that there is reason for concern. Such are invariably desirable new corners, but there are the educated trouble makers the ignorant and the diseased who are not only going to present no slight task in determining which are fit but are bound to present more difficult task in making them citizens.
 According to the reports of immigra- ton officials undesirables are finding ways in plenty to get past their scrutiny There ought to be a way to check such people but at the same time there should also be put forth all possible American. izstien endeavors for the good that ear be done anlsng those for whom it is in, tended.

 Hieague Senator Cox is apparently urging the ratification of the league and the covenant in full accord with the presi- dents views He is urging the support of the democratic position and gives no consideration to the effectiveness of such league or understanding among nations as Senator Harding and the re- publican platform stands for.
 It is hardly convincing to maintain that the placing of this country under obligations which will wreck our Con- stitution, which will require us to send snr army and navy to fight for the main tenance of European boundaries and which win entangle us in European con trsxersies- in such way as to knock out our Monroe doctrine will bring about an industrial depression in this country. It is to be hoped that there will be no such depression, but if it comes there will certainly be needed the republican methods of dealing with it rather than the Wilson policies of which together with unful6lled democratic promises, the people have hadA too much already. Our entrance into 4eague or understanding or the dealing with the danger of de- pression sheuld be entrusted only to the republican party.

IS NORWICH INTERESTED:

When the previous effort was made to send the Norwich & Westerly road to the junk heap it was from the town of North Stonington that the strong initial opposition developed. There was a rec ognition of what the loss of that service would mean to the people of that town as well as to those of other towns through which the line runs Others joined the efforts to keep the road go- ins and they succeeded.
 In the present petition for authority ts sell the road which comes up for a hear. ing Tuesday, is there going to be any effort made to show that North Ston. .iRgton. Ledysrd, Preston or even Nor. wich wants this road kept in operation Certainly it isn't a matter that should be left entirely to the small towns. Nor. wich has no other similar transporta tieF service in that direction. Transportation conditions are not always going to be what they are today. Are we going tc show no interest and kick ourselves af ter the road Is junked. or are we goine to let it be known that the retention of the road is desired, and that the public doesn't expect to get service for nothing or next to nothing?
 Authority to sell the road may nc necessarily mean that it would be junk cd That however has been the ten dency with such propositions wher, sales have been sought. and there shouI, at least be enough interest manifesto, In the retention of this means of gettin, 10 and leaving the city to prevent i form being eliminated.
