One of the most disgraceful and
humiliating incidents in our diplo-
matte history was the ill-mannered
and untrue diatribe uttered by
George Harvey. who misrepresents
the United States at the Court of
St. James, al the Pilgrims dinner
in London last week. 1t must in
deed be embarrassing TO the Ad-
ministTatiOn to find that its AM
bassador to Great Britain knows
more about our ideals and policies
than the President, the Secretary of
State and both houses of Congress.
But what else could they expect
from Harvey, our champion muck
raking journalistic blatherskite.
Listen TO his raving! Finally the
question of Americas participation
in the League came before the peo-
pie who decided by a majority of
seven millions.-It follows then
that the present Government could
not, without betrayal of its creators
and masters, and will not, assure
you, have anything whatsoever to
do with the League or any commits
sion or committee appointed by il
or responsible to it, directly or in
directly, openly or furtively." Sec
Tetaries Hughes and Hoover assur-
ed the voters just before the cleo
tion last fall, in the fateful letter of
the Committee Of Thirty One, that
the election of Harding did not
mean the rejection of the League.
but its adoption with reservations.
The Secretary of State has already
begun negotiations with the League
Council in regard to the island of
Zap controversy. Who knows our
policy and who is running the Gov
eminent? Harding, Hughes and
Hoover at home or Harvey, the self
styled American Warwick, in Lon
don? SO much for Mr.. Harvey's
mendacity. But the browning
shame of his speech was the in
dignity he offered to the brave men
and women who fought, suffered,
and in a myriad cases, died in a
glorious cause and for a noble
principle. After in sulting his
hosts by referring to those whose
anticipated reward for extolling our
altruism is transparency material"
he made a final spectacle of himself
and his party associates by insulting
the land of his birth and its brave
sons in the following words: mot
a few remain convinced that We
sent our young soldiers across to
save this Kingdom, France and
italy. That is not the fact. We
sent them solely TO save the United
States Of America and most reluct-
antly and laggardly at that. We
were not too proud to fight what
ever that may mean. We were
afraid not to fight" He likens our
participation in the World War TO
the desperate cowardly show of re-
sistance put up by rat when il is
cornered in its hole. VIII the spir-
its of our heroic dead forgive him?

Of the American viewpoint. as given

than of specific topics. although each
participant would have the right to in

and the great aim " the conference"
