Editorial Comment
Still the Best Hope
N. y. Trihunel

In his finely eloquent speech at
Arlington President Harding defined
again his attitude toward peace and
war. He solemnly pledged himself
to labor for peace. Yet he would
nave none of pacitist America. In
the event of war he held up the con-
ception OF an entire nation sharing
the sacrifices. all labor. all wealth.
equally conscripted. and profiteering
by neither selfish workers nor selfish
capitalists. No one has better stated
the aspirations Of the average Ameri-
can OF ideals and intelligence.
With emotion he described Ameri-
cas- "God-given duty to give of our
influence to establish the ways OF
peace throughout the world" and
ception of how that duty could best
be performed:
1--WE cannot guarantee. but we can
promote. the peaceful adjustment Of
disputes; we can aid in the estab-
llshlnent of the agencies of peace;
we can be influential in committing
the world to the triumphs of peace
and make hateful to humankind the
spoils of war"
Whether one looks to Mr. Harding's
words or his deeds, we do not see
how any open minded observer can
question his sincerity or his achieve
ment. Within two years after taking
once, following an intensely bitter
campaign over the league issue. he
has brought America within measur-
able distance Of participation in the
international court. That court is
fundamentally independent of the
league. Yet it unquestionably owes
its existence to the league President
Harding. while stoutly opposing en-
trance into the league itself. is ear
nestly advocating our cooperation
with the league in aiding and devel-
oplng its most important achieve
ment. the international court.
The words in the Arlington speech,
We cannot guarantee" well explain
why entrance into the league is still
impossible. Not alone Article X but
a point of view running throughout
the league covenant and still lively
III the minds Of it's members looks to
an armed guaranty Of peace, a con-
ception overwhelmingly rejected by
the vote of 1920 and opposed to every
American belief. "Why not simply
excise Article X and join the league
at once?" is the plea of the ardent
pro-leaguers. In aid Of this demand
they discuss not the league Of today,
as a thing Of growth and development
and tendency, but the letter of a
document signed in 1920 by thirty
one Republicans. Two Of the most
distinguished of these, Mr.. Hughes
and Mr.. Hoover, are among the clos
est advisers of Mr.. Harding, plainly
satisfied with the progress achieved
and in process Of achievement toward
the accomplishment Of the hopes ex-
pr essed by them in 1920. The vast

TUBERCULOSIS IN PORTO RICO

Having learned something Of the
truth, that the one served is interest
ed in the cleanliness of the hand that
serves, the public in general will re-
greet to learn that among the poorer
population Of Porto Rico tuberculosis
is making alarming inroads.
This condition is attributed to the
unsuitable living conditions Of the
working people there. The vicious
cycle of poor work and poor wages is
said to be complete. The employer
says he cannot afford to pay more for

This is only another instance show

labor should receive enough on which

fifty cents per day is not enough, ev-

be treated as something that was
finished for all time in 1920 and must
BE- accepted today upon the basis OF
1920 facts. AS the Tribune has
pointed out. the league will shortly
face a definite parting of the ways
with respect to the issue of guaran-
ties and force. If Lord Robert Cccil's
treaty of disarmament and regional
guarantees should be adopted the
league would definitely gain superstate
powers and take on a character Of
force that would make American en-
trance an impossibility. 1t is alto
gether uncomfortable that America
should ever enter it. While the fate
of the league as an organization Of
Europe thus hangs in the balance it
is folly to urge American entrance or
breach its rebuilding into that world
association for which America voted.
The pro-leaguers who are today
harping on the situation of 1920 and
ignoring the league Of 1923 are re-
turning to the old atmosphere of I'M
reality in which the league was en-
veloped by Mr.. Wilson. They talk
i'll distractions. They reawaken en-
otions and prejudices of 1920. Such
leadership offers no hope of America
joining anything. Small wonder that
it makes little appeal in contrast with
the practical. constructive progress
which Mr.. Harding has accomplished
and is accomplishing. He has already
more than justified the hopes eX-
pressed by the thirty one in 1920 and
he continues to be the best hope Of
Americas entrance into association
with the nations of the world.
