"But We Arc on Our Way"

| is very evident from recent developments
that this country has embarked upon 4
new, IL somewhat uncertain. foreign policy,
and we are moving decisively in the direc-
ton of participation in the vital affairs of
Europe. Only limitations and significant
suggestions have proceeded from the White
House and the State Department rs to tho
moves that are being made or which are
about TO be made, leaving the country large
~ in the dark as to where we are going and
by what road
There can be no doubt that MIR. Harding
and Mr.. Hughes have realized at length
that the old attitude of isolation, so far as
Europe is concerned must TO some extent
be abandoned. 1t is apparent that these gen.
tlemen are now prepared TO put American
influence into the equation i'll the hope that
compromises regarding PREPARATIONS and 9TH
or world problems may yet be evolved
which will promote economic recovery
abroad and better business at home
When this government decided to have
hand and voice in the Lausanne peace
conference, after first announcing that II
had no real interest in the kind OF treaty
the allies might make with the Turks. it
took step deeply significant of the official
mind In Washington. Even now, are rep
resented at Lausanne by 'ofiiCial Observers
only, yet these observers are functioning
u
subscribing TO the terms OF the treaty itself.
Then came tho Presidents message in
which he commended the fruitful results of
the four-power Pacific treaty to the atten-
ton OF Congress and insisted that the prin-
ciple underlying that pact might be applied
TO conditions elsewhere in the world. This
would seem to indicate that the admins
tration is ready to negotiate peace colven-
lions in the Near East as we'll as the Far
East and in the Atlantic as we'll as in the
Pacific.
On top Of all this is the White House an
nouncement that America will have a part
the government still refuses to conhde to
the country or the world the measures
which 1t will propose or consider in that
connection. This must be left to specula-
ton until such time the President feels
that it is safe TO disclose the program he
Will adopt.
That there is a degree OF mental disturb
anco in some quarters over the policies
which the government seems 10 be pursuing
Is not surprising. The isolatiOnists and the
irrcconCilabes are distrustful OF any move
that would seem to "cntangle" the United
States in world affairs, and some of them are
satisfaction is felt in tho manifest willing
ness OF the United States to lend itself as
far as il may to the stabilizaton of interna-
tOual finances. II may seem latc--even
TOO late--fOr this nation to take hand in
the adjustments now under way. but, per
haps, it is better late than never.

The Returns Are In

TODAY marks the expiration of the period
set by Governor Trinkle for express
sion Of legislative sentiment, upon which
he indicated he would base his final de-
ciSion in the matter OF a special session OF
the General Assembly. In substance his
statement of last month set the following
before the public and members OF the Cen
oral Assembly: he still believed a bond is
sue To be the best means OF financing the
States highway construction program; no
ic!t that the faciljtation of this program
stood out as one OF the most urgent de-
mands upon the State; he did not consider
that, up to that time he had received suni-
cient assurances Of support for bond is
sue 10 Justify calling the General Assembly
into special session to deal with that sub
ject; he was still willing to issue the call, if
and when assured that a working majority
OF the legislators would vote for bonds at
n special session.
In snort, the Governor called upon mem
hers OF the Legislature, plainly. II Indirect
~, to communicate TO him a Clcar-cut cx-
preston OF their individual views The re-
suit presumably will be in the Governors
possession today, or tomorrow at the latest
Within few days his decision may be ex-
pected
How far the advocates OF bonds have
gone toward meeting the Governors re-
ouircment OF a safe working majority is
necessarily prohlematcal. since the Cover
nor did not precisely state what margin
this would represent. y different question
however, relates TO the progress that may
have been made toward convincing the Gov
crnor that more than half the members Of
the General Assembly favor a special ses-
sion, without commitment in advance to
any certain course o! action
Governor Trinkle. declared supporter of
bonds, will draw a decision In the matter
from expressions communicated TO him His
known interest in the highway program and
! his sympathy for the bond issue proposal
discourage the suppOsition that he will place
rnreasonably high his requirement OF a
working majority" II is for him TO de-
eide, in any case, whoths- the responsible
