U. S. Out of League Loses

Paris, July ITO show to what ex-
tent the United States is concerned in
the deliberations of the powers with
whom America fought in the World
War, the following series of facts is
cited.
Under the Peace Treaty the Allies,
and especially France, receive a GER
tain amount of coal from Germany.
The French Government sells this
coal at current prices.
The Germans are credited on the
Preparations bill with the German in
terror price for this coal, about 70
francs per ton; the difference between
10 francs and the current price repre-
sents a big profit for the French Gov
eminent.
The French Government had intend
ed using this profit in payments on her
war debt to America.
This week the new coal delivery
compact goes into effect, France re
ceiving 100000 tons of the 10000 OO
tons monthly to be delivered.
The French Government will contin-
ue to sell this coal, but she will turn
over her profits in a loan to Germany
instead of paying them to America
1t is a matter of $15,000,000 monthly
or $4,000 0 daily.

In New Jerseys Care

Senator William N. Runyon, state
chairman of the Near East Relief, has
received word from the national head
quarters of the organization that Fri
van, the most important territory in
the Caucasus, has been allotted New
Jersey. Erivan is the capital of the
Armenian republic and the center of
the present relief operations. 1t is
the place to which thousands of refu-
gees are focking. The relief organi-
cation operates AZ orphanages and IA
hospitals in the district. During
March II, 504 orphans were cared for.
The district also has advanced in the
number of industries which have been
opened by relief workers to give the
Armenians a chance to become self
supporting again. Tailor shops, dye
shops and wool washing establish
employing nearly four thous-
and men, are in operation.
Nearly 100000 has been pledged
this year by people in New Jersey to
The Near East Relief. Over eighty
per cent. of this amount has been paid,
although the subscriptions have a year
to run. 1t is hoped that with addi-
tional pledges to report half a million
dollars in cash turned over to national
headquarters by July 1st.

Harding Scuttles The League

Mr.. Harding's speech of acceptance
is that of a United States Senator.
Therefore, it is long and verbose. 1t
is also eloquent with the e~loquence of
the Ohio vintage of about 1891. Sew
eral Of the positions dimly visible thru
the Senator's clouds of words invite
comment, but he takes only n posi-
ton that really counts. This has to
do with the Treaty and the League of
Nations, and may be stated in plain
language. Mr.. Harding has uncondi-
tionally surrendered to Johnson and
Borah. He has thrown over Mr.. Taft
and taken sides with Senator Knox
He has gone back on the majority OF
the Republican Senators-including
himself-and given in to the small
minority. In short, Mr.. Harding is
against ratifying the Treaty on any
terms and opposed to entering the
League of Nations upon any condi-
tons. Instead of sailing the ship tt
port, as it was said he would, he has
scuttled her.
If Senator Harding has thrust {
sword into his own party, he has giver
the Democrats a clear issue and grea'
opportunity. 1t is no longer a ques
ton of balancing a set of Republican
reservationists to the Treaty against {
Democrats set. The Republican can
didate has thrown overheard the whole
previous program-or pretense-of hi!
party. He is against the Treaty il
any form; opposed to the League how
ever amended. This opens the wa!
for any positive plan which Governor
Cox may propose. Anything affirma
tive by the Democrats will be bette
than this deadly Republican negative
Mr.. Harding has cleared the field fol
his opponents and given them {
stronger cause and a more favorable
fighting ground than they could have
boped for.-New York Times.
