struction of Europe, or the efforts
of the League of Nations to effect
such reconstruction was a sad mis-
take, because it left the world in
chaos for three years since the war
closed in spite of the utmost efforts
lof other nations represented in the
League of Nations to cure it's evils
and establish reconstruction. Their
task was made very difficult, if not
quite impossible, by the withdrawal
of the United States from all parti-
cipation in the effort. That with
drawal was, for the most part, a
purely partisan policy, made to fit
the needs of a campaign and to dis
credit Woodrow Wilson, a democratic
president. The farmers of the nation
are beginning to understand what it
did to them in keeping down the
prices for their products. When they
fully realize the cost to them of the
partisan campaign against the Lea
que of Nations, there will be vacant
chairs in the United States senate

we confidently predict. Already, we
note that some of the leaders in that
policy, are beginning to experience
an itching feeling at the base of
their political scalp locks, and they
are talking of new international ag-I
reements along the lines of efforts
now beng pushed by the Legue of
Nations.
The arms conference at Washing
ton, has accomplished a good deal of
good, even in it's failure to accom-
plish more. 1t has called the atten-
ton of the voters in this country
more sharply than ever before to the
need of international agreement to
preserve peace, and the absolute ne
cessity of peace in the world, in or
der to have prosperity at home.

END OF THE ARMS
CONFERENCE
(Great Falls Tribune)

The disarmament conference at
Washington is practically over. A
few loose ends have yet to be tied
up, such as the evacuation of Shan
tung by the japanese and the re-
turn of this rich province to Chinese
sovereignty and administration. Dur
ing its session this newspaper has
been represented by Ida Tarbell, a
we'll known magazine writer, who
finished her correspondence on the
subject last Sunday. She has given
our readers from time to time a
glimpse behind the scenes, and the
most important work of the confer
ence was transacted behind the see
mes. The stage curtain was scarcely
ever lifted and the audience taken
into the confidence of the actors I'M
til agreements in secret sessions were
arrived at. The exceptions were
mostly staged by Secretary Hughes
who sprung a few surprises at open
sessions on the other delegates, such
as his 5-5-3 battleshlp ratio.
Miss Tarbell is of the opinion that
the Washington disarmament confer
ence earned its salt in spite of it's
failure to realize in full measur the
early hopes it created. According to
her viewpoint, one of the best things
it accomplished was to deepen the
conviction in the United States that
this country made a grevious mis-
take when it boycotted the League
of Nations and refused to take any
part in its efforts to bring about re-
construction in Europe and prevent
future breaches of the peace of the
world. We agree with Miss Tarbell
in that conclusion
At the farm conference, called by
President Harding and which met in
Washington a few days ago, that
The Wolf Point herald. (Wolf Point, Mont.) 1913-1940, 1922-02-02

same feeling cropped out quite
plainly. The farming interests felt
that better prices for their products
depended largely upon better mark
cts for their surplus in Europe. Many
speakers gave emphasis to that fact
and urged upon the administration
the need of helping Europe to new
credits for agricultural products in
this country. The conference was
called by a republican administration
which was host to the gathered dele
gates, most of whom were republi-
cans themselves. Therefore, very
little was said about the League of
Nations directly. There was a feel
ing that it was not polite to mention
it by name. The same feeling PEE
vailed among the foreign nations
represented by delegates to the dis
armament conference, all of them,
except our own nation, being mem
bers of the League of Nations. Yet,
in the minds of both the delegates
to the disarmament conference and
the American farmers conference, the
League of Nations doomed large in
the back ground and it's shape could
be seen through the thin veil many
of the speakers drew in front of the
name. 1t could not well be other
wise. More. than fifty nations are
now represented in the League of Ma
tions. One of their avowed pur-
poses is to secure the disarmament of
the world. Disarmament on the part
of the five nations represented at
Washington must inevitably depend
to some extent on the success of the
League of Nations in securing dis
armament of the rest of the world.
One of the problems of the dis
armament conference was to secure
peace in the Pacific. They C
it, or tried to do so, by sign
ing a covenant very much like the
covenant of t~he<League of Nations,
but limited only to one section of
the world, and to designated areas
in that section, viz, the islands in
the Pacific ocean in part of its area.
No one discussing the Pacific five
power entente could well forget that
the League of Nations was also striv-
ing for the future peace of the world
by similar means on a wider scale,
and that war in Europe might well
threaten the Pacific entente agree
ment in certain cases if the great
powers signing the entente agreement
should arrange themselves on oppo-
site sides of of a great European war
such as we have just finished.
Similarly the farmers of the
United States are coming to under
stand that we are bound together
with the rope in the economic pros
perity of the world, and that we
have a great interest in the economic
prosperity of the rest of the void,
and cannot stand aside and refuse to
Jake any hand in the reconstruction
and financial salvation of the coun-
,ries of the world that buy our sur
olus production without loss to u
The conviction is growing
stronger, day by day, in their mind
hat the refusal of this country to
nave anything to do with the recon-

SEES SISTER ON PATHE FILM

Clarence ]. Severson, manager of
the Liberty Theatre, had the novel
and pleasant experience recently of
discovering his sister in a Pathe News
picture that showed a party climbing
Mt. Rainier in Washington. His sis
ter is a professional nurse in Seattle
and had written Clarence of her in
tention to- join a qarty that was go
ing to climb Mt. Rainier, and when
this feature was thrown on the screen
it occurred to him that there was a
slight possibility that the party shown
might be the one his sister had joined.
Such proved to be the last but he
could not have been sure if she had
not turned to look back and thus
shown her face to her borther.

Chaliapin Closes
His Engagement
AT Metropolitan
Sings Philip ii in ''DOn
Carlos" Second Time and
Again OHends by Re
peaiing Air in Third Act

with his second appearance In the
character Of Philip II In Verdps Don
Carlos" last night, Mr. Chaliapin ended
his present engagement nt the Metro
politan Opera House. Whether or not
he will be heard again In some Of the
spring representations Is matter
which lies on the knees OF tho gods
which Is a metaphorical way OF saying
that Il rests with his manager and hr.
Gatti- -casazza. As Il Is he has made
the rounds Of the subscription nights
with his three operas: Boris GOdoun-
off, "Mefstofele" and "Don Carlos,
not one Of which need be dropped out OF
the eompany's repertory II the public
should manifest desire 10 hear IL.
They were In Mr. Gatti's list before
Mr.. Chaliapin came here last season,
and there Is no reason why they should
hot remain after Dis departure, not
withstandinc that his impersonatlons
have been their great glory. The pa
irons of the Monday night performance
heard him as Boris; those Of Wednes-
day az Boris and Philip H.; those Of
Thursday as Boris; those Of Friday as
Mefstofeie. and those Of Saturday aft
ernoon As Philip II. and Medstofele.
lie thus. gave seven performances
with the Metropolitan company in New
York and one In Philadelphia.
Thus much for the statistics which
are interesting in the case Of so
unique an individual in the world OF
operate art. As for the rest there Is
little 10 record save that Mr. Chalia-
pin, despite his tardy participation In
the drama, dominated II after his APP
poarance. repeated his air in the third
act, though there was little justihea-
tion so far as the applause was con-
cerncd, dnd, Of course, none at all in
tho dramatic situation, which u de-
spoiled OF its effect. The traditions Of
long ago might have justified the act
after 40 fine n vocal Performance: the
feeling Of to-day condemned It en-
phatically, and 80, obviously. did the
judgment OF the vast majority Of last
nights audience.
