More on League Of Nation

More on League OF Nations
Viola, Idaho, October %, 1920.
Editor The Star Mirror,
Moscow, Idaho.
Dear Sir:=I cannot understand
why there are so many different
views in regard to the League of Ma
lions covenant, unless it is partisan
politics Some say it is unconstitu-
tional. We understand that shortly
after the signing of the Versailles
treaty and League covenant at the
peace conference, Elihu Root, Charles
E. Hughes, and other legal lights de-
cided that the League covenant is
constitutional. Wilson evidently be-
lieves it constitutional
Some say that it will force us into
Doctrine. One provision of the Lea
que is Nothing Shall be construed as
to interfere with the Monroe Doc
trine." Article ten tends toward ex-
tending the western" part of the
Monroe Doctrine to all the world, that
is to all the members of the League.
We understand that the U. S. has al
ways favored protecting the "terri-
torial rights" and political independ-
ence of the nations of the western
continent from European aggression.
This has never involved US in many
wars. Now why not, with the help
of the members of the League, 'sun-
dertake to respect and preserve US
against external aggression, the terri
torial rights and political independ-
ence" of the nations of the eastern
continent, that are members of the
League? There is evidently great
security and satisfaction in being
member of the League of Nations.
They are bound together for the pro-
lection of one another.
Somesay that it will force us into
war contrary to our constitution.
Let's see if article ten does any such
thing. Article X.-The members of
the League undertake to respect and
preserve against external aggression
the territorial integrity and existing
political independence of all members
of the League. In case of any such
aggression or in case of any threat
or danger of such aggression, the
Council shall advise upon the means
by which this obligation shall be full
filled.
We see in this article that the
Council shall "advise" the members
IF the League what to do in cast of
external aggression, etc." The |
Council might advise the United |
States to go to war. The United |
States would not have to go to war !
This matter would rest entirely with |
congress. 1t is just like the president
advising congress to do a certain
hing. Congress can heed his advice i
)r it can reject it. To illustrate
Wilson advised" the senate to ratify
he peace treaty and join the League.
The senate rejected his advice" So
congress can reject the advice or re-
Of the Council So if
We join the League our boys will not
'e sent to war unless congress so
eclares.

airs, the League can do nothing If

to reduce their ornaments. This vii
stop great waste of money. Ths
money thus saved can be applied tt
the interest on the national debt.
The League of Nations is in har-
mony with Theodore Roosevelt's
views in 1914. Also senator Lodge
made speeches in 1914 agreeing prac-
tically with Article X
The following extract from g letter
written by Theodore Roosevelt to the
Now York Times, October 18, 1914,
embodies his views: S'The one per-
manent move for obtaining peace
which has yet been suggested with
any reasonable chance of obtaining
it's object is by an agreement among
the great Powers, in which each
should pledge itself not only to abide
by the decisions of a common tri-
bunal back with force the decision of
that common tribunal. If any nation
were unwilling to go into such a gen
eral agreement with other nations, it
would of necessity have to depend up
on its own armed strength for its own
protection. This is the only alter
native"
Wilson had the views of Roosevelt,
went to France to make the treaty
with Germany. He knew that these
men had the only practical plan yet
thought out for a league of nations.
So I think if Roosevelt, Talft, or
Lodge, had made the same treaty
with the same League of Nations
covenant, the Republican party would
have considered it the grandest thing
under the sun. Political parties are
envious. One party is afraid the other
will win to much honor, and thereby
stay in power too long. So they try to
find some bad thing about every good
thing the opposing party does. How
ever there are some honest people and
of good intentions in ell parties.
I have watched carpenters build
houses and could see their mistakes,
and would think. IF I had hold of
the tools would do the work better,
but | would find by using the tools
awhile myself that l could not do the
work as we'll So the republicans
have stood back and watched the
democrats put lot of wholesome
laws on the statute books in the last
seven years and have seen few mis-
takes and are saying, "Give US the
tools. we will show you how to do it"
And if they get the tools they can
not do the work any better, probably
not as WELL They seem to be long
ing for the good old days for the rich
man when Wall street could bring on
a panic, and thus rob the producer of /
MS hard earnings; for the good old
lays when there was no income tax,
when money lenders could charge
rom to IL percent on loans, when
wheat was SOC per bushel, cotton 5
% 10c per h., in short, when the
rich man had his hand in the poor
mans pocket.

kissed his sister and went out the door.
Gladys looked around the room. She
switched on the lights. All the vases
were filled with flowers making the
room bright and CHEEKY, in contrast
to the weather outside. Taking last
sweeping glance over it, she went to
her room to dress. Her hand was press
ed to her breast where the three let
tiers lay.

LETTERS FROM JACK"
By
BEN F. WATSON, Jr.

A February day. Outside a gray
light and a cold wind. Ernest with face
pressed to the chilled window pane,
watched the people passing on the
street below. They hurried hither and
thither, coat collars drawn over their
necks, and hats pulled over their eyes.
1t was dreary scene.
Ernest turned and spoke to woman
sitting on a lounge drawn in front a
fire place with bright fire burning in
the CRATE.

just such day as this too. Remember
how it showed in the afternoon as we
went to the cemetery?"
He turned back to the window, tap
ping his fingers against the pane.
II was thinking, Ernest, how differ
emit life has been since his death. He al
ways so gay and so jolly. But some
how or other I have never been able
to realize he is dead. Even now l feel
that he is still with u.s."
Bitterness crept into her voice. She
continued.
IT can't do it Ernest, that's all there
is to it! Mother is so delicate, It will
kill her if she knows. How we have
been able to keep it so long is more
than I can see. If we had told her then
she would probably not have lived to
reach home, and now that kept it 80
long-a year-it is impossible to for
me to tell her. You must do it Ernest. "
She rose and walked to the window
by her brothers side The black dress
she wore, made her face very white. A
sweet, full mouth, cool gray eyes, and
a small delicate nose and an oval face
made her charming. She must have
been near thirty.
Ernest put his hands on his sisters
shoulders.
"Gladys it is up to us. We can't
break that promise you know. We pro-
missed Jack the last thing we would
never tell her. Can't you see him now,
smiling, in those last moments, and
saying to us-the last thing he said
Don't tell mother. and remember the
letters. It is cruel to live the lie that
we are living, and yet we promised him
we would not tell mother. He must
have had motive in making us do
this but I have failed to see it. I sent
the letters out to Phil day before yes
terday, with instructions how to send
them"
He removed his hands from Gladys
shoulder and renewed his tapping on
the glass.
