ISOLATION is IMPOSSIBLE
The Globe Now Secthing With Prob
lens That Makes Impossible
Such Situation.

If anyone in this country, politician
or statesman, at Washington or else
whore, thinks that the United States
can get along comfortably, profitably
or even safely in magnificent isola-
ton" as regards the rest of the world,
he should disabuse himself of that
concept as soon as possible. Facts
that stand out as clear as the sun of
beautiful yesterday are showing how
impossible is lonely grandeur at this
troubled period of old earth's history.
The globe is seething with problems
that must touch this country at some
point or other, a few of them at all
points. And most of them require CO.
operation with the rest of the nations.
Washington's remote and untroubled
America does not exist, and could he
return but for a day he would be
quick to acknowledge it. We can no
longor paddle our own canoe without
regard for dangerous ss-currents
and treacherous quickwaters of inter-
national controversies.
Take a few examples: There is the
delicate matter of Japan's mandate
over the island of zap, which controls
is inextricably mixed with the treaty
of Versailles which we have thus far
refused TO ratify. Take a mandate
over Mesopotamia, very similar to it.
And now to crown all, take the ad-
vance of the allies into Germany, with
which country we are still at war. 1t
will be impossible for this thing to
continue without impinging upon AM
erican interests somewhere-and still
we are outside the great alliance of
nations carrying 1t on.
Here at home the effect of this
reparations invasion is instantaneous
and Illuminating. President Harding
loses no time in letting it be under
stood that the separate peace with
Germany, which he declared he would
urge as soon as Congress came into
extra session, is indefinitely postpon-
ed. The decision to recall all Amerf-
can soldiers from the Rhine has been
reversed. The plan TO send Senator
Root to Europe to see If some "nS~
relationship" outside the League of
Nations could not be arranged has
been abandoned. Our whole isolation
policy seems to have received a severe
Jolt.
World events have with startling
speed emphasized the fact that it is
no longer a question whether we shall
enter the league, but how long we can
keep out OF n--Boston Post.
