Presidential Probabilities.

For quite awhile Mr.. Herbert CLARK
Hoover. celebrated on both sides of the
Atlantic for his amazingly efficient ser
vices as food administrator during and
after the Great War, has been men
toned in connection with the Prcsl-
dency," as the politicians say. Thus far,
however, MIR. Hoover's political convlc-
tions have been an unknown quantity, SO
far as general public knowledge Is con-
oerned, and in considering his probabili-
ties as q candidate for President, it was
always a speculation whether the Demo-
cratic or Republican party woculd call
upon him as a national leader,
Now, however, Mr.. Hoover has re-
ceived a positive and powerful indorse-
rnent as q candidate for President. The
New York World Of yesterday printed 8
long editorial, in which the declaration
was made that the energetic and whole
souled support Of that paper would be
extended to him for President, regardless
of political considerations. If Mr.
Hoover is Republican in respect Of ad-
ninistrstive capacity" says the World
editorial, ''he is q Democrat in respect Of
decentralization and human rights.
Very emphatic is the Worlds indorsc-
ment Of MIR Hoover, and IFS assurance Of
support In point Of ability n point Of
experience, in point Of capacity 70 deal
comprehensively with the new problems
of reconstruction, it says, Mr. Hoover
towers above all the candidates who have
been brought into the contest. There are
no arguments against him except the
arguments that are spawned out Of the
stagnant waters Of professional politics.
For itself, The World docs not care whcth-
er Mr.. Hoover calls himself Democrat
or Republican or q Progressive or an
Independent He IS the kind Of man THAI
ought 10 be President If the United States,
and he is the man The World intends to
support for President Of the United States
regard ess Of all the artificial barriers Of
s debased and discreditod partisanship.
And thus the editorial concludes:
''Most OF the candidates who have thus
far announced themselves, Democrats
and Republicans alike. estimahle gentle
men though they may be, are 50 made
0uate, in view Of the issues that the next
President must meet, th2t their aspira-
tons are little short Of ridiculous. Men
who have no conception whatever Of
what is going on IN the world and no
understanding Of the problems that must
be met are boldly offering themselves for
an Office for which even the best mind and
the strongest talents are hardly ade-
ouate OF all the men whose names have
been mentioned. the World believes that
Mr.. Hoover alone measures up to the
Presidency in the fullest sense

NEW YORK. Oct. 2O.-Elihu Root.
In his only address on the league OF

palm last night declared that the
treaty of peace with Germany would
have been ratified, and America
would have been n member OF tho
lcague--if President Wilson had
been willing
MIR. Wilson, however. was not
willing. Tie insisted upon the treaty
absolutely unchanged Mr.. Root said,
adding later on In his speech;
II do not question MIR. Wilson's be-
icfs that the disposition OF the treaty

which undertook to make over east

was the accommodation OF conflicting
interests. the giving of something
there: tho yielding Of some things In

ing Of Justice by eNpodiency which

impression that some OF their on
illusions were mistakes,
and I think It most Objectionable
that the American people shalt enter
into n solemn and positive agreement
to guarantee and maintain by force
of arms for all time the dispositions
Of territory ana sovereignty which
these four men made in the year
1919.
That is "A part Of what article ten

what docs the American soldier
think Of his country? lie thinks it
is the best country on earth.
That is what he thought before he
went to Europe. That Is what he
thinks today.
Why did the American soldier
fight with reckless couraso in
France? Because he felt sure he was
fighting for the greatest country i'm
tho world. wanted to prove by his
conduct that the American people
were tho best people In the world,
and was determined to show that the
American soldier was the quickest to
defend his government of all the sol
diers In the world. Right or wrong,
that IL how lie felt.
A soldiers life IL ms precious to
him as any ptllcr mans. He does not

or ~ for n precious purpose. In this
case he gladly looked death In the

loved ana rcvcred beyond amy other.

while hc has been fighting victor
iously for America as first and best
Of all. 1t has been proposed here, at
home. by those who never faced II
foe, or heard u shot, to put America
in u lower place among the nations
that she ever had before, to ppt ON
her the stamp of inferiority just Hs
she has finished a triumphant war,
to make her merely one nation In a
great assembly Of thirty or forty ma

In that assembly to the British Ent-
