Another British Editorial.

LONDON, teo. g-E rom the EuEoo'
! can point of view, America has as
sumed the position of a fortunate
combaTant, who when the battle IS
won, walks away leaving kss wounded
comrades on the field, J. L. GarTin
writes in the current issue of the OBJ
server.
! That thought is very bitterly and
genuinely left in Europe, Garvln as
serts.
Because Of the influence of Presi-
dent Wilson, Garvin says, the Yer
sailles treaty was framed on the as
sumption OF American cooperation in
its enforcement. Europeans would
have made much different arrange
ments had they known they would be
forced to depend upon themselves
alone, Garyin added
The writer, who is known as one
Of the sanest Of British commentators
on international affairs criticises the
tone of Secretary Glass letter to the
United States chamber of comm
as 'Tac1less."
He advocates, however, that Europe
exercise patience" in the spirit OF the
letter of ViScount Grey Of Fallodon,
which urged acceptance by Great
Britain OF the American senate's res
eryations 10 the peace treaty. The
should be accepted no
matter how anomalous and one-sided
they may seem in theory" Garvin be-
lieveS.
He points out that Great Britain
might equaliZe matters by reserva-
lions of her own, but declares the
league OF nations must be constituted
at all costs, if only as a consultative
system.
Let's meet the United States SO
literally and boldly as to leave them
no rag OF & decent excuse for staying
out of the league" Garvfn advises,
urging the British people 10 forget
their wrath and look a. both sides OF
the question
Democrats estounded.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 2.--Lodge's
announcement, made just after the
senate met apparently astounded
democratic senators who asked him
10 repeat it. The surprise was due
to the fact that last week Senator
Walsh of Montana, gave notice on
behalf of Senator Hitchcock that the
latter would move on February 10 10
take up the treaty. Lodge thus lOre-
stalled Hitchcock by setting the date
Of his motion one day ahead of Hitch
cocks.
Il sincerely hope" said Lodge, In
making his anuoun cement, that
unanimous consent VIII not be re-
fused. II it is l shall make the
necessary motion"
Why wait so long," asked Sena-
or Ashurst, Arizona, democrat
Why not tomorrow or next day."
IN say to the senator replied
lodge, that I've given that consider
ition. But so many senators are alb
sent that | think it better to wait
until next Monday
Lodges decision was reached after
with other republicans
md a study Of the record OF the !
reaty debate in the last session.
