THE SCHEME OF THE LEAGUE.

1t is doubtless true that in New
England and in all the eastern states
there is Il general sentiment in favor
of league of nations. 1t finds ex-
preston in the common speech of peo-
pie, through the public press and
through resolutions passed in conven-
tions held for various purposes.
Many people would have America
join the league now under discussion in
the presidential campaign, and many
would require amendments or its adop-
ton with reservations. There is less of
the sentiment in the middle western
states and according TO reports, still
less further west. Wherever it exists
it is by reason of the horrors of the
war ended, and by anticipation of the
horrors of another war that would be
waged with all the modern devices for
the destruction of human life and of
property. The sentiment is a most
laudable one, but we are so anxious to
prevent wars there is danger of neon
sderatc measures being resorted to.
We cannot believe that our country is
prepared to enter a league from which
it can never withdraw, but be forever
liable to send our armies and warships
across the seas in obedience to the
league IS commando and more than this,
be compelled to maintain an army and
navy ready to respond to such com
mands.
1t may be remarked here, that if
the President could have seen his way
to adopt the two, clear clarifying,
safeguarding reservations that the SEN
ate proposed, America would now be
member of a league and the country
would be at rest on ,reat subject.
When voters carefully examine the
covenant their judgement must con-
denim the first article. 1t provides that
any member may withdraw after two
years notice of its intentic' to with,
draw, provided it has perfc ned all its
international obligations under the
covenant. 1t does not say who shall
decide this important question of per.
Torrance and there being no provision
in the covenant that a retiring mem.
Der may retire at its option after two
years. notice, it follows that when a
nation joins the league, as it is pro
posed this nation shall do, it becomes
member forever unless the other %
members or a majority permit its with
drawal; therefore, the first reservation
provides that America shall have az
absolute right to withdraw after two
years notice and shall be the Judge OF
the performance of her obligations
This is right, for if America were ono,
in the other nations would never le
her out.
The tenth article is in substance tina
the members of the league undertake
| " preserve, as against external aS
gression, the territorial integrity ant
the political independence of all its
members. Thus the league has un
limited control of its members and UNI
limited power in designating their OBJ
legations and in enforcing their per
Torrance. Nothing could he hlainer
than that this nation could be com
PEELED to send its military and nava
forces to any country of Europe OF
Asia and maintain them there in serv

The fans howled for Babe to nur-
der the ball. They yelled for a home
run. which would have won the game
right there for the Yanks But John

perfect control and the best Ruth
could do was TO send q grounder TO

Tailed his teams one run at that

admirably. and was roundily cheer

as Babe Ruth. which Is saying a lot.
