Shields, over his own signature, pledged
himself TO support the military policies
OF President Wilson as long as he re-
NAMED in the senate. This solemn
promise given to the people became in
large measure the means by which he
was re- elected
When President Wilson, In the spring
Of 1919, brought back to this country
the peace treaty and league OF nations
covenant, the GROWING achievements
of his military policies, Senator Shields
skulked in his tent for a time and then
announced he could not support the
president. He became an ardent sup
porter of Senator Lodge, whose ennnity
to the treaty was inspired more by his
ennity to Woodrow Wilson than by any
other cause.
For weeks and up until a few days
ago. Senator Shields voted for each and
every one of the Lodge alterations of
the treaty. claiming that he did so in
order that the pact might be Ameri-
caniZed.
On Friday Senator Shields did an
other fiop. and voted not only against
Senator Lodge, but against his own
self against the ratification of the
treaty.
Now, here is a record of noundering
around that we think is unparalleled in
any similar space OF time. Senator
Shields has not the same excuse Sem
against ratification, because both of the
latter have made II clear they did not
favor the Lodge reservations and only
supported them as one means OF de-
feating the treaty in its entirety. Sem
ator Shields, on the contrary, has said
he heartily supported the Lodge altera-
tions because they protected American
interests.
BY his own actions, then, Senator
Shields has convicted himself Of break
ing his pledge to the people who
elected him, and then of later voting
against what he himself has announced
to be the best interests Of the Ameri-
can people. Our distinguished repre-
sentative obviously has lost himself on
his job. Prof. Elnstein, who recently
proclaimed a new theory concerning the
law of gravitation. says there are not
twelve persons outside of himself who
understands his theory. For Senator
Shields we win amend this declaration
to the extent of saying there are not
thirteen persons who understand his
position. The additional one is the
senator himself
