SEARCH FOR MAN

Inquiry is being made concerning the identity of man who fired a shotgun from a window on East Me Kinley street between Ninth and Eleventh streets yesterday morning and shot a dog. The neighbors think they know who fired the shot, which was a violation of two laws. shooting within the city limits, and the un- authorized attempted killing of dog
 There is considerable indignation in that neighborhood, especially among the owners of children as well as dogs. The shot was fired about o'clock in the morning when the street it usually occupied by the rlanding that the fear of God and the law be put into the heart of that man.

The reporters at the State Department have es-

COFFEE AT 10 CENTS.

CONSTANT READER" says he
was charged 10 cents for coffee in a
lunchroom at Rockville, Md, the 9TH
er day. He says he has been in
many cities recently and 5 cents Is
the charge most everywhere.
ITS beyond comprehension" he
continues, why patrons of restau-
rants and lunchrooms in Washington
do not boycott those establishments
that continue high prices in the face
of a general fall in all foods. Coffee
at 10 cents, the price still charged
in so many places here. is an out
rage of the wort sort. Coffee has
not been cheaper in years. sugar is
almost at pre-war prices. and milk
or cream are at low prices.
Washington people seem like 80
many sheep. perfectly willing to be
sheared by profiteers. IL they would
make their resentment known where
ever they go, and patronize those
places that offer lower prices, food
profiteering in this town would soon
tumble"

The only question, then, is what
is the best way to discharge this OBJ
legation and accomplish this benefi-
cent purpose, and, second, how far any
President is justified in sacrificing
the interests of his own country and
of his own people in the hope of
benefting the rest of the worldi
1t would certainly seem to the
typical American citizen of that ma
jestic majority which voted Presi.
dent Harding into office that the
best way to exert compelling in
fluence on European affairs is to
keep this country entirely separate
and distinct from them and entirely
uninvolved in them, and consequent
~ capable of taking any part and
any position at any time that may
seem best to us.
Only three days after President
Harding had decided to have the
United States take part in the meet
ings of the present so-called Su-
preme Council of Europe, Premier
BRAND declared that the United
States could not act as arbitrator in
European disputes because it was
member of this council.
Therefore, obviously, by merely
participating in this council we have
Immediately deprived ourselves of
one of the great opportunities to be
of service to humanity in helping to
adjust this deplorable European sit
uation.
And the further we get into for
eign entanglements the more we will
find that our opportunities for bene-
fetal achievements are lessened, and
that our complications, limitations
and obligations are multiplied.
In fact, our complications and OBJ
legations may be increased to such
point that the people of this coun-
try may again be involved in another
tremendous sacrifice of life and
wealth and welfare in a conflict and
ENHANCEMENT in which they are not

The situation in Europe in George
Washington's time was so nearly
identical with the situation in Eu-
rope today that his words apply with
peculiar and especial force and fit
ness today.
And it was his words and his ex-
ample that the Republican Party
pledged itself and its candidates to
follow.
The wars in Europe in Washing
tons time were as terrible as thew
are today, the outrages and in
justices were as great, the destruc-
ton as appalling, the whole situa-
ton as demoralized and demoraliz-
ing.
And yet, despite these facts-yes,
BECAUSE of these facts-George
Washington warned the people of
America to keep. free from European
entanglements and to pursue an indie
pendent course, uninvolved in the
conflicts and complications of Eu-
ropean chicanery. !,
The vast majority of the American
people believe that George Washing
ton was right, and they voted for Mr..
Harding because they thought that
Mr.. Harding believed that George
Washington was right and would

The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1921-05-24
PRESIDENT HARDING'S idea of
partial participation by the


United States in European at
fairs can be understood even if not
approved.
He probably does not want the
. United States to be placed in the
unusual, if not unfavorable, position
of having knocked nation out In
honorable battle and then left the
PROSTATE nation to be robbed by a
couple of international highwaymen.
If this is President Harding's
thought there is something to be
said in favor of his apparent &C
. ceptance of certain responsibility
and obligation on the part of the
United States in European affairs.
Nevertheless, he should realize, and
we should realize, that although the
responsibility may be large the OBJ
legation is distinctly small.
Let us review very briefly the Sc
quence of events which constitute
our responsibility and imply our OBJ
legation.
First, the Allies were being thor
oughly beaten toward the end of the
late war, and were standing, as the
English General Haig said, with
their "backs to the wall"
Second, the United States hurried
two million men to Europe and
stopped the Germans victorious ad-
vance.
Third, President Wilson issued
proclamations calling upon the Ger
man people to end the war and de-
claring that the United States was
not making war against the German
people, but against the German au-
tocratic government.
Fourth, these proclamations were
distributed over the German army
and far into Germany by aeroplane,
and were largely responsible for
precipitating the democratic revolu-
ton in Germany which deposed the
Hohenzollerns.
Fifth, the German army, beset by
the added American forces on the
field and threatened by revolution at
home, decided to capitulate practi-
cally upon Mr.. Wilson's terms.
Sixth, the armistice was declared
and the Central Powers delivered
themselves into the hands of the
i United States of America and the
Allies.
Seventh, the Council of Versailles
was held, in which Mr.. Wilson
abandoned all his pledges, repudi-
ated his Fourteen Points of princi-
pie, sacrificed entirely the interests
of all those dependent upon him, in
Guiding the interests Of his own
country, and accepted as far as he
could treaty and League of Ma
tons which left everything to the
Allies except the presidency of The
League, which Mr.. Wilson apparent
ly planned by this base bargain to
secure for himself.
Thus we see that there is con-
siderable responsibility on the part
of the United States for conditions
that exist in Europe today, and a
certain limited obligation, for the
sake of civilization and for the sake
of our own good faith, to try to
remedy these terrible conditions.
Of course, however, Mr.. Wilson s
acts were not in accord with the
spirit and sentiment of the Ameri-
can people, and could not bind the
American people without the con-
sent of the representatives of the
United States of America in the
Senate
Yet Mr.. Wilson was the official
head of the United States Govern
ment, the accepted representative of
the United States abroad, the mouth
