nent international lawyers) was 1t the duty of Mr. Lansing to remain loyal to the Constitution or to the President? Was it his duty to em- barras his government or his chief in office?
 We find no authority for the idea that loyalty to the President is of first importance. On the contrary every federal officeholder takes an oath to support the Constitution of the United States, not to support the Presiden, and when the President acts in what such officer deems an un- constitutional manner, it is his duty to resign his office and oppose the President.
 Mr. Wilson has weakened his cab inet, has deprived his Administration of it's ablest adviser, has strengthened the hands of the opponents of the League of Nations and lost himself the support of some of his staunch- est friends. Disapproval of his action appears to be practically universal. It is notice to the world that MT. Wilson is unfitted for the position he occupies as chief magistrate of a great nation. However, that has been known to many all along. A man who holds to the heresy of Free Trade, who says, in the face of the deepest insult and injury, that his country is "too proud to fight" who leaves his constitutional post to go abroad to take part on foreign soil in deliberations which should be con- ducted by his representatives as tit ular head of the government, who tular head of the government, who 1everses all his former opposition to ''entangling alliances and triese to impose upon this country a super government, who tries to deprive a coordinate branch of the government of it's constitutional prerogatives and who goes counter to the constitution which he has sworn to support, is not the proper man to be or remain a.: the head of the government, Having tried to usurp the powers of the United States Senate, he is in a mighty poor position to accuse the secretary of state with attempted usurpation because he asked cabinet office.s to confer with him in mat ters of importance affecting the government while the President was and mentally incompetent to act.

LOYALTY TO COUNTRY OR PRES
 IDENT-WHICH?

In asking for the resignation of Sec retary of State Robert Lansing the President has deprived himself of one of the few men who has held cab inet office under the present Admin istration who has been fitted by abil- ity and training to occupy a cabnet post. Tn fact only two other mem bers of President Wilson's cabinet in either term have been men of suffi eient calbre to occupy a cabinet pos ition, and they did not long remain in his cabinet MT. Lansng has had long training in the Department of State, entering it in 1890 and serv- agn in some capacity ever since. No one has questioned his ability nor his fitness for the position which he has held as Secretary of State. The only fault winch has been found With him has been his remaining in the cabinet MT. Wilson, plans of which he per- senally disapproved and which were against the best interests of the country.
 It appears that the friction began during the session of the peace con- ference in France. The acts of MT. Wilson were so unwise, so contrary te all precedent, so greatly in oppos- ition to the Constitution of the United States, that it has been a mar vel that Secretary Lansing could re- main in the cabinet or continue to act as peace commissioner. He ex- plans his continuation in office by sayng that he was acuated by a de- sire not to embarrass the President.
 That brings us to the question in- dicated in the headline of this article: Loyalty to the Country or President-Which?" If MT. Wilson was trying to foist upon this country League of Nations on terms con- tTary to the Constitution (and MT. Lansing seems to have thought them unconstitutional, as have other emil

TO TEACH BLIND TO DRAW

One Of the many experiments Of the

draws 1t with his eyes open. An ad-
vanced pupil has drawn the head Of q
classical bust and the mask Of Bee
thoven.
These experiments fred Mr.. G. 3.
Albeit. the director Of the society. with
the idea Of drawing by the blind. BE
has devised a medium which looks like
the frosted stuff on q matchbox made
liquid, by which the draughtsman can
follow by touch what he has drawn
and correct or add to his work. So Tar
there have been 10 experiments with a
blind pupil.

than that a blind man can draw the
plan or q design Of something me
