A Lively Corpse

Why does Germany seek admittance to the League of
Nations and why has Austria become the 44h member Of
that deuuded body? Do these nations not know that the
league is dead-hat old Doc Harding has pronounced it
corpse and has summoned the best minds of all the parties
to act as undertakers? @st
Why does President Wilson accept the task of arbitrator
for Armenia at the instance of the corpse he not
realize that the League has been scrapped the auspices
Of Harding assisted by the best minds of Johnson Borah
Reed and Shields and there is nothing to arbtrate?
Does the League not realize Senator Lodge states that
the American election settled its fae and that the
tatves of nations who Surrendered their nationality for
are wasting time and energy Geneva?
Why does not the league batantly slaughtered stay
dead?
Somehow other the statesmen of the world very
obus They do not comprehend that the partisan ranings
OF American politicians in election year determine the

that an American senator is some pumpkins and that
