university for various courses, and out
of this contact with large group of
foreign students grew the idea of de-
veloping such work. Nancy University

cepted an offer of a gift to the city

They wrote an ut terly impossible peace treaty, exact ing far beyond the power of fulfill ment, they divided up millions of square miles of territory, they set up a whole brood of petty states to be used as pawns on the political chess board of Europe, they imposed in demnities in money, shipping and raw materials beyond the ability of their conquered enemies to pay, they loft unsettled scores of causes of war which have since kept Europe in tur- mOil, while the representatives Of the United States asked nothing but the privilege of accepting a league of na- tions covenant guaranteeing to the victorious powers the fruits of victory, providing that the United States should help collect the debt and police the conquered territory, and filled with grandiloquent phrases about highly desirable things the covenant made no provision to ensure.
 The test of the desire for peace is, as General Bliss says, the willingness of nations to disarm. If they will not agree to disarmament, and the peace treaty and the league of nations cove nant proves that nothing is further from their thoughts, then they intend to fight again. They intended also to so arrange matters that when they did fight we would be dragged into the struggle, but thanks to the senate and people of the United States the danger of such an involvement has been averted.
