Aland islands to Finland.

The troublesome little Aland Islands
have been so long the subject OF a
bitter controversy among the Scandi-
navian countries with many Of the
other European states either inter
ested operators or active partisans
that IL would seem as If any settlement
which would bring a sense of secur-
ity to the islanders and peace among
the disputants would be welcomed.
But it Is not evident that this secur-
ity and peace will follow as result
Of the recommendation decided upon
by the Aland Islands Commission at
Geneva there is some doubt that Fin
land will agree TO the limitations
fixed on the award Of the islands to
her by the commission, while 1t is
scarcely likely that Sweden viii sub
nit to having her whole eastern coast
left without protection against an
enemy nations attack.
The Aland Islands, lying at the
entrance TO the Gulf Of Bothnia on
the north and the Gulf of Finland on
the east occupy the strongest stra-
tegic position In the Baltic Sea. The
islands. about 300 in number, form a
chain OF mostly rocky points not more
than from ten TO twenty miles apart
from the coast Of Sweden north of
Stockholm 10 the coast of Finland
near Abo. Two or three Of the
ldrger islands, mostly those off the
Swedish coast, have richly productive
farming soil; about eighty OF them
are inhabited, and n fourth OF the
entire number might possibly be
available as sites for forts, naval sta
tions or aviation bases.
II was on account Of their strategic
value that Russia gobblcd them up,
together with Finland, IN 1909 Swe-
den then began her fight either to re-
cover the islands &c 10 prevent them
from remaining menace TO her coast.

Sitting In Abroad.

The Presidents acceptance of the
Allies invitation TO America to sl, in
ut their conferences dealing with the
adjustment of after-war problems
has given great concern TO many OF
those who opposed the League Of
Nations. They see in this acceptance
yielding to the pro-League sentiment
in America.
THE NEW YORK HERALD is certain
that the facts do not isss5ify this
conclusion. 1t holds that in Ter own
interest America must possess an in
Inmate knowledge of what i going
on. American representatives sitting
in at these allied councils will fur
rish this information 10 their Gov
ernment, and through them their Gov
ernment may express itself TO these
councils.
< America fought in the great war
side by side with the Allies to save
the world from iron heeled autocracy.
America must now cooperate with the
Allies in rescuing the world from eco
.nomic chaos. This does not mean
that America must finance Europe,
other than in the usual banking sense.
but that she owes 1t to the world 10
exercise her influence in securing the
best solution of the problems yet 10
be settled.
We may assume, and not be far
wrong, that we have already made
progress in this respect since our Gov
ernment again commenced to function.
This is apparent In the matter Of the
amended reparations demands on Ger
many which have been uncorslition-
#ally accepted, whereas all previous
demands failed of acceptance.
IF Mr.. HARDING isn't strong enough
TO hold straight to his course with
our representatives abroad sitting In
at the allied councils, he isn't strong
enough to hold straight to his course
with America isolated from the rest
Of the world. But there need be no
fear of Mr.. HARprNG on the score Of
weakness. His position on the League
Of Nations, and on ~nianglements
sbroad, has been clearly defined.
Mr.. HARD1NG fully realizes the SER
vice this great neutral nation can
perform in the present involved in
ternational entanglements. He has
. slready begun the work.
