HARDING ON PEACE

President Hardng's position on inc peace qucs-
ton, as sci forth in his address to Congress
exactly what readers. accepting the Tecgrams
analysis Of his foreign policy, were prepared to
expect He waves a formal adeu to the League
Ct Nations He approves in advance resolution
declaring the war with Germany at an end.
What he says about RETAINING from separate
treaty with Germany seems to have puzzled some
of the newspapers, and even the Washington press
reporter. but it is directly IN line with his other
announcements. Recognizing that Germany
not make a separate treaty under the Versailles
handicap he proposes in settling with that nation
ito Gull from the existing treaty such provisions as
apply directly to this countrys future relations
with Germany and by ratfying those provisions
make, not indeed. in technical aspect, separate
peace but enc which, in effect, will really be just
as separate as if it were negotiated IN toto.
He betrays some doubts as to the feasibility of
thus using the old treaty plece-meal, but evidently
he expects to put the burden of finding the way
upon those who cling 10 the Versailles pact
In the meantime, the necessity for a specific
!. treaty with Germany not considered pressing. A
e. gentleman agreement will amply suffice for
long time, and we venture the prediction that it
will have to do this summer, anyway But with
the passage of a peace resolution diplomatic rela-
lions, under what is left of International law, will
be resumed, an American ambassador will go to
Berlin; a German will come to Washington, and
various diplomatic representatives from each coun-
try will take their stations in the other

The New England states sent $50. Canada sent

GERMAN BONDS FOR AMERICA

Discussing the proposal to transfer the indebt-
cdness Of the allies to Germany and letting the
United States accept German bonds in lieu of
the obligations now held against England France,
and Italy, the Pensacola News thinks it would be
bad proposition, because, as it says when the
allies, with all their determination and effort, are
finding it so hard to extract anything from the
Germans, how could easy-going Uncle Sam ever
do it?"
While there is something in that point. there is
also another side to the question worth considering
Germany couldn't possibly pay any less on those
debts than the allies are now paying. so the risk
hardly be greater than it now is. Besides.
if the debt were against Germany sentiment in
America would be unanimous for insisting upon
payment in full, while there is. and always will
be strong contingent which will urge the can
collation. of the debts so long as they are against
the allies. In tho long run, it would probably be
good business arrangement to let Germany
shoulder tho liability.
