Irresistible II It presented a united
front, while he also would absorb a
ira agfc-comic account of the complete
collapse Of the French Belgian Ital-
Ian scheme to extract reparations.
He must likewise see occupation OF
the Baden territory as a swollen
headed impertinence on the part OF
shameless robbers. Any one reading
the French papers with the same zeal
equally would be ready to swear to
the French patience, sense of justice
and the complete success of the occu-
patton. Further, that the only reason
for extending the lines was to cope
with German resistance in holding up
International trains at the bottle

Despite the terrible lessons of the
war. the ancient poison is workin g
with the same violence. Must we
believe the truth of Goethe's pessi-
mistic philosophy when he said, "Na-
tions never ripen, they always remain
children?
The press of both nations is in
f1ammatory. Our monarchists and
nationalists wish to prove the neces-
sity of a strong army. Their speeches
and their controlled press are try

Where Danger Lies.
The greatest danger threatening US
today lies in part eight Of the treaty
annex which provides for reprisals
for defaulted payments. France
bases her seizures and action on this
section and Belgium and Italy sup
port her. Germany insists the action
represented on the reparations COM
mission. The fact that the British
representative has not sanctioned the
action is accepted here as showing
England accepts the German view.

Bonar Law will return to the house

sensational events at home and

Unemployment, housing and agricul-

on foreign relations. which are likely
TO be initiated when the virile labor
opposition agitates for the with
drawal Of the British troops on the
Rhineland
developments in the Ruhr continue
TO strengthen the official view that
the French policy is hopeless. and
there seems little likelihood that any
pressure by the laborites will imme-
oiately effect the government plans
with respect to the Rhineland. The
animation from official circles is that
the presence of the British at
cologne depends largely upon the at
fitude at Paris. and so long as the
French accept the British policy of
benevolent neutrality the troops will
remain as steadying force between
the French and the Germans.

acterizes the British policy as similar

awaiting the most favorable moment

One source OF surprise to officials

PARIS, February 10.-The French
government seems to have been bad
ly advised as well as the dupe of ex-
cessive confidence in the Turks at
Lausanne. Our policy of abdication
there was as blind as Lloyd George s
infiammatory policy toward Greece
was criminal The Turks respect
force. and force only. The minute
they think any one fears them they
go to the worst extremes.
Proof of this fact came on that
memorable February 4th, when Ismet
Pasha yielded to England while show
irg the utmost stubborness toward
France. Poincare had deemed It wise
to assert Frances right to make a
separate peace, although not exer-
cising that right. But it was to Cur
zon that Ismet rendered the offer of
a separate peace and it was Curzon
who refused to consider it.
Mistake of Three Years.
All this merely emphasizes the mis-
takes of three years. You all know
where | stand and how | feel. The
French and British, instead of stand
ing by their 1919 agreement and the
treay of Sevres, signed in 1920. have
sought to modify it. And they have
acted at all times in opposite direc-
tionS
Lloyd George aroused Greek i'm

where he doubtless hoped. with the
Greeks as a screen, to obtain great
advantages for Great Britain at Con-

this blunder with other mistakes. but

to play the Turkish horse against
