these same Poles must take such a
licking as they deserve, but that Eu-
rope, or rather the Allies Of the late
war. will not permit OF such a set
Element as would sacrifice Polish in
depenence. Poland was made a part
Of the league Of nations as one Of the
signatory members. Under Article
X It was entitled to have its territor-
ial limits upheld against aggression.
That is apparently forgotten while
the Soviet government Of Russia ad-
ministers the licking Lloyd George
says 1t deserves.
This utterance Of the British pre-
mier is considered decidedly signif-
cant here, because Of the especially
close relationship in all diplomatic
matters between him and President
Wilson since the beginning Of the
war with Germany. The former does
not declare that the United States
should again become involved in the
quarrels of Europe and incidentally
of the ar in behalf Of Poland because

OF any rights Poland may have, but
in order 70 regain Polish indepen-
dence.
The comment in Republican Con-
g~ressional circles Is that Lloyd
George makes no mention OF the fight
being waged for Irish Independence.
which the Republican House at its
last session sympathized with by re-
solution, nor does he make the slight
est reference to the efforts being
made in India to gain independence
from the British crown. The Soviet
government has been threatening to
invade Persia and take the gateWays
to India. 1t is a dangerous thing in
itself because opposed to sound rep
resentatiye institutions. A menace
to Europe or Asia by the Soviet
would be a menace to civilization.
But 1t is held here that the independ-
ence Of Ireland or India should be
as much a cause for sending the
youth Of America to fight on foreign
soil as is Polish independence.

Lloyd-G George Recalls President Will

Washington, August S1.-Possibil-
tiles of engulfing the United States
in another general European conflict,

tionary Soviet government of Russia,

Information has come to the State

used this language: 1--WE certainly
should appeal to America. America
up to the present time has not rati-
fed the treaty, and there is the con-
fusion which exists when the treaty
is the subject of a conflict between
the two great parties and cannot be
settled. 1t is not for me to say what
view the American executive will
take. All l can say is this: l am only
Judging from the attitude of America
at the peace conference. America
was a strong protagonist of Polish
independence. No man took such an
active, determined and l may say
Jealous part in setting up Polish in
dependence as President Wilson. !
amquite certain that whatever differ
ences Of opinion there may be in
America in regard to the league of
nations, there will be no difference
in the attitude toward Polish indie
pendence."
The British premier goes on to
show that the Poles unjustly and I'M
necessarily provoked the war with
the Soviet, and did 1t without sufi-
Gent strength to make good. He says
