That, then, and not the Treaty Of
Versailles, is the link between the
peace and amity of the past and the
peace and amity OF the present and
future; the link specially devised by
three OF the greatest OF our early
statesmen to hold against even the
strain OF actual war.
That is our treaty still existent
with Germany; and only by recogni-
tion Of it's uninterrupted validity-a
matter solely between the United
States and Germany-can adjustment
be made under its provisions.
The bearing of the foregoing review
upon the question of the future will be
obvious. There has survived the
months and years of war with Ger
many (war actual, aud then a war
nominal due to Mr.. WILSON'S self-de-
termined policy definite contractual
relation with the very Power with
which we had been but no longer
are at war. Despite the war status,
either when 1t was a shadow or when
II was a substance, treaty of amity
and commerce, or at least part Of
such a treaty, is at this time In full
force so far as the United States Gov
ernment is concerned.
This exceptional situation clearly
separates the position OF the United
States from that Of all the nations al
ready concerned in the Treaty OF YER
sailles. independently Of the insuper-
able obstacle to joint action with the
Allied Powers in the making Of peace
which is presented by the fact that
the impossible Covenant Of the League
is tied up in the Treaty of Versailles
by so many threads that the Covenant
cannot now be dissected from the
treaty without destroying the whole
vital structure. as President WILSON
boasted II could not be done, there
stands the additional fact that we
have and, even under war conditions,
had a separate treaty with Germany,
calling for separate treatment, spe-
cial consideration and independent
action.

the stipulations contained In the ar
ticles thus revived shall always be
considered as in no manner affecting
the treaties or conventions concluded
by either party with other Powers
during the interval between the ex-
piraton Of the said treaty of 1893
and the commencement of the opera
tion Of the present treaty"
The interval excepted was the in
terval between June %, 1910, and
March II, 1929, when the existing
contract was proclaimed.
The articles revived from the trea-
ties of 1855 and 1909 relate to the
rights of either of the contracting
Powers remaining neutral to free In
tereourse and commerce with the bell
lgerent nations in case the other
party goes to war; TO rights and re-
strictions as to- the seizure Of con-
traband merchandise to passports for
vessels of the neutral party when the
other party Is at war; and TO vari-
Gus other situations concerning navi-
CATION rights when one of the two
contracting parties is at war and the
other neutral; and, finally, in Article
XXIII., to which we have specially
referred as remaining valid and
binding Notwithstanding the war, ac-
tual as we'll as technical:
"If war should arise between the
two contracting parties Prussia and
the United Statesl the merchants OF
either country then residing in the
other shall be allowed to remain
nine months to collect their debts
and settle their affairs, and may de-
part freely, carrying off all their ef-
fects without molestation or him
drance; and all women and children,
scholars Of every faculty, cultivators
Of the earth, artisans, manufacturers
and fishermen. unarmed and inhabit-
ing unfortined towns. villages or
places, and In general all others whose
occupations are for the common sub
sistence and benefit OF mankind.
shall be allowed to continue their re-
spective employments, and shall not
be molested in their persons; nor
shall their houses or goods be burnt
or otherwise destroyed, nor their
fields wasted by the armed force of
the enemy, into whose power by the
events OF war they may happen to
fall; but IL anything is necessary to
be taken from them for the use OF
such armed force the same shall be
paid for at a reasonable price"
The next article of our existing
treaty provisions as to the case of
hostility between the United States
and Germany relates to the treatment
OF prisoners Of war; and the treaty
continues, in the language Of FRANK
LIN, JEFFERSON and JOHN ADAMS:
"And It is declared, that neither
the pretence that war dissolves all
treaties, nor any other whatever,
shall be considered as annulling or
suspendIng this and the next preced-
ing article: but on the contrary. that
the state OF war is precisely that
for which they are provided and dur
ing which they are to be as sacredly
observed as the most acknowledged
articles In the law OF nature and
nations"
