TINE recent French election,
with its overturn Of Poincare,
has not only had Immediately
considerable political conse-
quences in international relations
but is bound to have important and
even decisive results so far as; the
league of nations is concerned. When
Ramsay Macdonald became prime
minister of Britain there was general
appreciation of tho fact that mis- for
eign policy would revolve around the
idea of giving to the league of ma
tions something of the position and
influence Mr.. Wilson had dreamed
for it
While Pofncare was premier, how
ever, there was small chance that
this Macdonald purpose could be fully
realized. 1t is true that after his
overturn in the French chamber last
April, Poincare formed a new cabinet
in which at least two members were
believed to be named because of
their British views. These two men
were Loucheur and Jouvenel Lou
cheur was strong believer in
Anglo-Fronch cooperation, Jouvena
was perhaps the most conspicuous
French champion of the league of
nations
It was fair to assume, then, that
even had Poincare lasted, France
would have shared in bestowing upon
the league at least a modest fraction
Of the power Macdonald desired for
it. Yet it is probably beyond Ques-
tion that in his heart Poincare be-
lieved as little in the league as a
very large number of his fellow
to be found in the fact that he comes
from Lorraine, that within his own
memory his countryside has twice
been occupied by the Germans and
that his family memories 60 back to
at least two other invazions. those Of
1914 and 1915.
A. He Saw Prst1et1sa.
For Poincare the real protection
for France did not lie in any league
covenant. rather It was to be found
In q series Of alliances. That he
would have preferred the British al
lance to all others, goes without
saying, but he insisted that any
Anglo-French compact should be in
fact an alliance, what it is now fash
ionable to call an old fashioned alli-
ance in which each nation pledged
its armed strength to the other in
case Of war, such an alliance as
bound Franco to Russia and Austria
to Germany IN 1914. And this alli-

President Ebert Immediately asked
the chancellor to form a new gov

Foreign Minister Stresemann hoped

grievously perplexed statesmen. Ugly
ducklings there are in plenty and all
panaceas for their ungainliness have
failed. They remain as ugly as ever
However, since the election of a So

atune with the Macdonald regime OF
England, there still is some hope OF
eradicating evil conditions. But with
all the old problems new ones arise
daily and that is the dangerous thing
in procras.inating when settlements
should be reached. 1t is the wear1-
ness of European peoples, because OF
this procrastination, that eventually
will force settlement
The latest little move to distract

the unexpected and sudden demand

of the treaty of Versailles. During
the early part of the year the allies
made the demand. Germany coun-
tered with the statement that the
disarmament question should go to
the league Of nations. Now the
allies say that there should be no
such movement and that they retain
the right to compel obedience to the
disarmament provisions. The ambas-
sadors declare that Italy, Belgium
France and England are a unit in
this demand and that the leaders
of all nations intend to see that Ger
