THE ONLY ANSWER

NTAKlNG new speed record in dipo-
4'1 macy, Secretary Hughes reflects Amer.
lean public opinion with an official en-
phatic no " the German mediation
proposals.
The dispute technically is between Ger.
many on the one hand and Great Britain
France. Belgium and Italy on the other
hand. But the United States, as one of the
powers which waged the war against Ger.
many, is morally aligned with the other
nations which fought Germany. 1t cannot
separate itself from them and act as an
umpire in dispute between them and Ger
many without weakening the ties which
bind it in moral interest with the nations
beside which 1t fought.
Secretary Hughes wrote to Germany some
time ago that it was responsible for the
war and that it must make reparations to
the full extent OF its ability. This country
could not be regarded as an impartial or
as a dlsinterested judge. even though it is
not demanding anything from Germany.
The only conceivable conditions under
which II would be justfnble for the United
States 70 act as an arbitrator would be
those created by joint request from the
British French. BPlgianS and Italians on
