serted the world was not yet ready
for the idealism Of Woodrow Wilson.
Lord Birkenhead declared the
world probably would not survive If
idealism were given a completely
free rein; no nation in democratic
conditions yer would become the
knight Grant of the world. He said
Mr.. Wilson's judgment Of his coun-
trymen was wrong and through this
error he became agent OF all post
war developments from which altru-
istic minds would have recoiled.
He insisted that Germany should
be made to pay. as a warning to
others. declaring that a dozen un-'
scrupulous out powerful men. de-
lberating privately in Berlin, had
decided upon the World war.
'It is no use abusing the treaty
of Versailles" he said. THAT treaty
was the creature of tho victorious
mood of the victorious allies.
ut is a fascinating speculation
whether had President Wilson been
given health and strength TO pur-
sue the campaign which he contem-
plated. his ideaiism and personality
could have affected the forces of the
world.
II am bold enough to doubt It..
For tho real truth is that while the
whole world requires the encourage
ment and light of idealism. the
whole world would probably not
have survived II idealism were given
complete free rein"
