HE British are always DrutAlly

the British press in discussing the
League Of Nations, A noted British
newspaper declared = few days ago
that the league would be failure

not the men and money to carry out

Of the world" Do you get the point?
Uncle Sam Was not only expecting to
finance the league for tho protection
Of the European boundaries, but he
was also expected TO furnish good
American boys to face the warning |

American fathers and mothers favor
