OUR PREMIER-AT.LARGE

Washington ID c November 11-Am-
bassador Harvey has again set himself
up as Secretary Of State extraordinary
this time to announce the foreign pol
Icy Of the United States. The latest
declaration of this Hotspur Of the
Harding administration is In reply to
recent utterances of Lord Derby, for
mer Ambassador to France, in which
Lord Derby voiced the hope and belief
Of an alliance between France and
England. of which the United States
might ultimately become member, to
safeguard France and incidently the
peace of the world.
While the Prime Minister Of Franco
was on his way to the United States
upon an Invitation from the President
and while Marshal Foch il receiving
enthusiastic reception. as the honoretl
guest Of this nation, Ambassador Har-
vey, showing aside Secretary Of State
Hughes, gives slap both to Great
Britain and France and Jolt to the

1T seems to have fallen to my I'M.
happy lot since I have been In England
to diispel illusions respecting the atti-
tude of the United States 1
feel impelled to say frankly that the
hope voiced by Lord Derby must he
regarded as futile
Thus one Of the important questions
to come before the Disarmament Con-
ference, involving an important phase
of the foreign policy Of the United
States, II decided in advance by our
super-secretary of State 5000 miles
away from the scene Of the Confer
cnce.
Perhaps the failure of Secretary
Hughes to rebuke Ambassador Harvey
for slandcring our soldiers and Sailors
in his Pilgrims Society Dinner speech
MAY have embOldened our Premier-at-
large to define and announce in this
blount and offensive way our policy
with respect to the security Of France
aud safegua riding world peace. Perhaps
the failure a Secretary Hughes to re-
buke the Ambassador Premier Ia due
to the fact that Col. Harvey is the per-
sonal choice and appointee as well as
the personal representative of Presi-
dent Harding. Perhaps too Col. Harvey
feels that. having nominated Mr. Hard.
ing for President in smoke-flled
