it is not a place for punishment; 1T IS a

In the First Place, 1t Isn't Clear

Many excellent people who expend great
deal of energy in clamoring for the League of
Nations have never even read the covenant al
though it is not at all long document and
although everybody in the country has cer-
tanly had plenty of time in which to read it
by this time The truth is, they have never got
beyond the words league Of nations" We are
all in favor of the words, all in favor of the
idea and ideal-but are we in favor of this
particular covenant in the form in which it is
offered?
No American voter, man or woman, who is
unwilling to assume the attitude of conscien-
tOus student and find out whether this actual
covenant is covenant to prevent wars-or
whether on the other hand it is an alliance that
will cause wars-has any real right to an opin
ion on the League Of Nations in this campaign.
Let the women voters this year remember-we
are talking not of an IDEA (for on the IDEA
of League of Nations nine tenths of us agree),
but of DOCUMENT, an actual CONTRACT.
Every voter in this campaign owes it to himself
or orself to find out beyond peradventure of
a doubt whether we could honestly and wisely
live up to such contract.
The fact that there has been so much dis
agreement in Congress and among other groups
in this country as to just what various provi-
sions of the covenant mean is in itself danger
sign. Senator Reed, a perfectly good Demo-
crat, pointed out repeatedly that the language
of the League covenant was dangerous and that
a contract that admitted of many divisions
of opinion before it was signed would certainly
promise infinite difficulties after it was signed.
"Al that l want" he said sis to have the
American people understand this document.
They cannot be expected to hire lawyers to
construe it and study it and read it and dig out
it's meaning
"Any man that will draw document that
needs Interpretation had better hire a country
lawyer somewhere to draw it up for him.
great international document presented here to
govern and rule the world, that is supposed to
be written for all time, that is to change the
course of history, that is to save mankind from
destruction, that is to prevent the world from
being saturated with blood and its fields from
being made white with the bones of countless
slain is presented in language so obscure that
before we adopt it we must first sit down and
interpret it, That is an absurdity!"
