BY WAY OF THE
GOLDEN STAIR.

America has Joined the league
of nations, the United States
Senate nevertheless and notwith-
standing.
j. P. Morgan and associated
American bankers who get their
money from the American people
are joining the league powers
Britain, France, Italy, Bel
GUM, Czecho Slovakia, Holland,
Denmark, Norway, Sweden.
Spain, and Switzerland-in the
task of saving Austria.
This is the first step in the
rehabilitation of central Eu-
rope says Morgan, as he pre-
pares to chip in $25,OO0,O00 of
$13,00O,OOO loan to the strick-
en- nation.
Now there's no kick against
America helping rehabilitate
Central Europe. The collapse of
Austria would precipitate an
other dangerous crisis in a Flu
rope which already menaces the
world with another war. Anv-
thing which lessons the danger
of war and promotes world
peace, We are for.
But if we can work with the
league to save Austria, why
can't we work with the league
to save the world, including our
selves? Why the boiler when
President Harding suggests our
joining the world court?
Does Henry Cabot Lodge,
Senator from Massachusetts
raise his voice against this man.
ner of joining the league? Loud
silence from Nahant, Mass.
home of Lodge. Not a Cabotian
"hlsker stirs. Not a protesting
gurgle. Net even reservation.
Joining the league to make
money and joining the league to
make the world safe from war
are obviously two different
things. In the one case the prof
1t IS in dollars and cents and
/ goes to Wall Street. In the
/ other the profit is in tranquil
hearthstones, peace and secur-
lty, and goes to the plain folks
everywhere.
Anyway we're joining the
ieague-not by the back door
and not by the side door, and
mot through the cellar-but up
the golden stair.
