A DANGEROUS ALLIANCE
Unless the TWO diplomatic documents,

lished in The idea Rationale at Rome are

ans, Greats and SlOEtneS e~ndeaVOred IN

France against Italy. While reserving a
doubt as to TIE -genuIneness OF these
notes, we shoG d not say Ia their au-
lnenticlfy is il probable. Suppose they
are authentic, W1aC could have been the
origin Of the Serbian note and what its
object? Italy does not appear TO have
been named IL 1t, DuC the alleged con
TENS show qulGe clearly that attack by
Italy was feared and mat French ASSIST

desired. Serbia is represented as saying

atic and also % prevent any ~ascendaDcy

The aid Of Serbian troops and ships.
France on her part was TO help Serbia
with tne building OF a fleet AND mercan-
tile marine, and TO guarantee the lntegri-
ty of Yugoslavia. The agreement was
TO take the form Of y military convention
as the basis for a definite alliance. These
proposals show a crudeneSs Of diplomacy
that suggests the Serbian hand. France
did not like them She deftiy turned chem
aside by saying that d commercial agree
ment must precede a military convention.
Why did Serbia choose France to
be her ally? Possibly because of the
, assumption that Italy and France can
never be true friends owing to Louis Ma
poleon having required the c~ession Of
Savoy and Nice TO France Tor the assis-
tance given by French troops at Magen-
ia and Solterino sixty years ago.

VOTES FOR WOMEN
MOTHER Of '|SMS, :
SAYS J. R. NUCENT
Leader, Blaming Prohi-
bition on Suffrage, Spurns
Mr.. Cummings BeheSt.

In caustic letter James r. Nugent a
the request of Homer S. Cummings. chair
man of the Democratic National Compit-
tee, to assist in bringing about ratification
of the federal suffrage amendment by the
New Jersey Legislature. Mr.. Nugent sent
the letter Wednesday and it was made
public yesterday In Newark, N. ].
Mr.. Nugent declared woman suffrage
would give impetus and encouragement to
socialism. He asserted that "the prohibi-
ton amendment Is woman's legislation,
urged largely by women and effeminate
men and foisted upon the American nation
by a cowardly absentee Congress. The
letter. in part, follows:-.
1T believe woman suffrage-the mother
OF all 'isms'-to be the greatest menace
now threatening the stability of Ameri-
can government and American insutu'
tons. It is necessarily one Of the founda-
ton stones of socialism, and the adoption
of the federal amendment will give social
ism, of which the present Bolshevic agita-
ton is but a violent manifestation. the
greatest impetus and encouragement.
"Also, allow me to direct your attention
to the fact that the county OF Essex,
where live and which includes within its
boundaries the city of Newark and popu-
lation Of nearly three-quarters OF million
patriotic, law abiding Americans, went
Democratic in 1919 by over 5000 majority
as against Republican majority of 2',oot
in 1916. Let me further remind you thai
the Democratic Assembly candidates from
Essex County in last years campaign re-
pudiated the plank in the State platform
committing the party IN New jersey te
woman suffrage.
"T would therefore, be manifestly un.
fair both to the candidates and TO the
people of Essex County to ask the twelve
members Of the Legislature TO reverse
themselves on this important question
Let us not for expediency's sake in1hc
suffrage upon the women or New Jersey
the majority Of whom. I am convinced
are opposed to votes for women.
Moreover, it means the driving o
women into the direct competition VIII
man in every field OF human endeaVor
and you should know that the natura
law of the survival or the fittest Is SUI
limmutable. 1t means the looseDing or tn
marriage ties, diminishing of the brit
rate and a breaking up of the American
homes. It means the protection 0
woman into tho hurly-burly and turmoi
Of politics, and politics. as you ana
know. is constant warfare, in which mel
lonly should engage.
.You ask me, therefore, to ally mysel
with a national policy committing tn
Democratic party to n complete sur
render of the manhood Of the nation z
petticoat control for political expediency
sake. Believe me, / hold myself to bt
too much of a man to do this.
"If you wish me to follow the leader
ship of the effeminate and pusillanimou:
majority in Congress, who were cajoiec
and intimidated into passing both pro
hibition and woman suffrage. all have
to say to you is that you arc mistaken
in your man."

Rights Violated,
Say His Lawyers
Declare 1t Has Been Impossible to
Settle Poets Differences with
Lecture Managers.

A formal statement on differences exist
ing between Maurice Maeterlinck. the poet.
and ] B. Pond. head of the lecture bureau
under whose auspices the Belgian writer
was announced to tour the United States,
was made yesterday afternoon by Stanch-
field & Levy, attorneys for Mr.. Maeter-

The differences arose when Mr.. Maeter-
linck, finding In his first lecture in Car
negie Hall a week ago that he could not
make himself properly understood Will.
speaking in English, expressed the desire
to be allowed to deliver his addresses In
French. using an interpreter on the plat
form beside him. Mr.. Pond objected. and
The matter was placed in the hands of at
torneys for both sidel
The stltement Issued by Stanchfield 4
Levy follows
after most patient and persistent at
tempts to adjust the differences between
Mr. Maeterlinck and his manager we arc
reluctantly compelled to admit that the
task has proven impossible We have no
desire 10 air the grievances nor to disturb
the public by reason OF them, but vo
deeply regret that such unpleasant cir
cumstances. no. of Mr.. Macterlinck's
making. should have arisen TO mar the
great happiness which he has enjoyed IN
his visit here and TO interfere in his rela-
ticns with the American public. for whom
he has such a high regard.
"Mr. Mactcrlinck wishes. indeed, that IL
we're possible for him TO keep every single
engagement to meet and speak with the
American people. Unfortunately. his man
ager has made that impossible, and -
would now appear that he may be de-
prived of that privilege. lie hopes how
ever. that the American public will bear
with him and will believe that he is still
very anxious to find way TO give them
his message, despite all difficulties with
the language and with management.
I'VE have advised him that his contract
has been deliberately broken and that his
rights have been flagrantly violated. At
the proper time and place We shall be
ready to Justify that advice"
