Two events have concurred of

was something more than personal
its wider indications touch the men,
tai attitude of the nation. His pbvs-
ical decline is doubtless to be attrib-
uted to the problems he met, and the
depression which seized upon him was
doubtless due to his clear under
standing that political methods were
forever out of date and wholly inef-
fective in such problems as he faced
There were signs during the last wear
that he, or someone for him, was
making an effort to make the politi.
cal engine turn over once again and
give at least one more impulse toward
the solution of the worlds problem
Mr.. Harding had little faith in the
possibility, but he did lend his en-
ergies to the attempt, and it is only
the truth to say that the results
were nothing. Then, shockingly sud-
den, came his own passing, and it is
extremely unlikely that the attempt
which he and his friends made to
compel political solution of politi-
cally insoluble things will be repeated.
The other event of note is the
plain speaking which Great Britain
has been sending to France That
is not politics, That is one result
of the pressure of cosmic fact
upon the receptive mind. There is
no diplomacy in it; certainly there is
no diplomatic victory in it. The
wisdom of diplomacy at this stage
of affairs is to see that diplomacy
doesn't count, and this wisdom of
insight seems suddenly to. have fallen

WEDNESDAY. JANUARY 10. 1925.
WAR RuMBLEs

The world has heard so many
threats OF war resumption on a
large scale since the armistice,
but with the situation always
calming down eventually, that il
is not likely TO grow unduly ex-
cited now by the gathering OF
military forces. 1t is indeed 4
time when there should be earn
est hopes of restraint upon any
show OF excited action.
Still common prudence also
calls for recognition that mobiliz-
ing armies and plans made for in
vasion are very close 10 war.
Certainly it is close enough to
call forth some action on the part
of civilization for peace. If
nothing but force will put an end
to the threatening attitude of the
Turk in the Near East. after his
resumption of massacring Chris
tians, then it would seem that
there ought to be united action
in that direction without delay.
As for the situation on the Rhine,
where FrInce is threatening in
vasion, il would be regrcttablc in
the extreme il there should be a
return to force where the best in
terests of the world call for de-
pendence upon reason.
Meanwhile it is indicated that
there is TO be no hope in the
Washington administration for a
leadership out OF the difficulties.
After the news had been ringing
around the world for weeks that
President Harding or Secretary
Hughes was about to announce
some great plan to save the. day.
1t now comes out, as usual. that
the administration was "misun-
derstood." 1t would go no furth-
or than to propose an unofficial
commission of business men to
estimate the amount of repara-
tons Germany can pay. with its
conclusion binding upon no ma
ton. With Frances spurning OF
this, and with the world in gen
eral taking little interest in it. the
news now comes that Washing
ton will make no move in the
European situation unless invit-
ed. 1t is 4 sad reflection that il
has given no indication OF having
a working plan even were it in
vitcd to act.
But the American pcoplc-the
people of every couniry--cannot
be indifferent 10 such a situation
fraught as it is with the danger
of resumption OF war and contin-
uing the racing in armament.
They must remind their leaders
emphatically that they were sup
posed to bring peace, not war !;
that they are expected to have
some helpful ideas and the intel
ligence and courage to make
them count.
