 "The United States was more than justified in it's refusal to ratify the treaty Of Versailles, and in it's sign ing of a separate treaty with Germany which affords just basis for a dur able peace between the two nations.
 The greatest service that the United States can render to the cause of human brotherhood and world peace is to maintain it's traditional foreign policy. We cannot afford to be implicated in the decisions of purely political questions in Europe.
 We have position of signal ad- and a sacred responsibility to preserve. Europe and the rest of the world must be able in the midst of their controversies and bitter dissen- sions to count with confidence on the sense of justice of this country. The cause of world peace and world jnstice demands that in the face of clamor and calumny We remain faithful 10 those American ideals which are to prove the saliva ton of all free peoples"

While Scott's-companions
awaited his recovery, they discov-
cred the tracks of white men who
had passed through that region not
many days before. They asked
themselves whether it was better
for them to remain with Scott,
whose recovery was doubtful, and
themselves starve to death, or to
abandon him and hurry on to join
those others ahead? They decid-
ed that the lives of several we'll
men were of more consequence than
the fate of man who was virtual
1y dead, and so they left their com
rade, under pretense of hunting
remedy for him.
The next summer these same men
