need of any guarantee of her from
tiers? So the matter rested until it
was taken up this year on totally
new basis. as a result of Germany's
proposal for four-power pact Of
guarantee.
TREATY NOT PERFECT.
That there are gaps and defects in
this treaty goes without saying. a
treaty. after all. like an act of Par
lament, is only the best that can be
carried at the time. having regard to
all the conditions and difficulties. i
am convinced that for the moment
nothing better could be achieved. On
the part of NJ. BRAND and Herr
Luther it is an act of courage of the
first order. They had deep suspicious
and acute susceptibilities to contend
with in their respective countries, and
they have faced them manfully. Mr..
Chamberlain behaved throughout with
STRAIGHTFORWARD common sense.
1t is very much TO be regretted that
Russia could not have been included
in this fine gesture of appeascment.
Until Russia is brought into the
European fraternity of peace its dis
turbcd content cannot be at rest.
The earth's crust is at its thinnest
from the Baltic to the Aegean. Earth
quakcs which started there have
rocked the world, and on those from
tiers today there are ominous rum
blings. There are boundary disputes
between Russia and some of her
neighbors which must sooner or later
provoke serious trouble.
MENACE 70 PEACE.
A powerful parish or group of ma
tions ficrcely resenting its exclusion
from the society VI western civiliza-
ton is constant menace to peace.
That is why Russia was invited to
confer with the rest Of Europe at the
Genoa conference.
In some respects the experiment
was encouraging. But it is only fair
10 say that Russia was by no means
the most intrArtable government
which responded ut that conference,
and the failure to reach a complete
agreement must be shared by at least
three governments then sitting around
the same table.
Even thus, the pact of non-aggres-
sion was entered into by "a nations,
including Russia. Russia adhered to
that pact and has honorably stood by
it ever since. Her invading armies
have occupied foreign provinces since
Genoa. it is said, but those armies
were not Russian. II is worthy of
NJ. Brands craftsmanship that he
should have expressed his eadiness to
go back to Locarno IL Russia were
prepared to 90 there to meet him in

AMERICA BETTER OUT.

American initiative would not here
be helpful. America held coldly aloof
from two great efforts made by Eu-
rope since Versailles to restore the
peace atmosphere-one at Genoa, the
other at Locarno. She left Europe to
founder in and through her troubles
over frontiers. Neither her govern
ment nor her people were prepared to
take the necessary risks to ensure n
European peace. As she had repud-
lated President Wilson's guarantee of
frontiers. which was a substitute for
armed force. an appeal to disarln
coming from her statesmen would nat
urally not now have the same effect.
The most hopeful feature in a
Frightening sky is the readiness of
France to invite serious talk on dis
armament. France alone can put this
through.
l am sorry at this juncture the old
tempermental antagonism between NJ.
BRAND and NJ. Caillaux should have
once more broken out and endangered
the unity amongst earnest seeker Of
ter peace. They are both strong men,
and the strength of both is necessary
if France is to give a strong lead.

GERMANY ENTERS LEAGUE.

Another incentive which weighs
with those who have hitherto object
cd to the pacts Of guarantee is the
inclusion of Germany in the League
of Nations. Hitherto Germany has
held aloof from the league. She has
been repeatedly invited to join. but
the Silesian award destroyed what
ever hope or confidence she ever re-
posed in the workings of the covenant
and German public opinion resented
any suggestion that their country
should walk into what it regarded as n
French trap.
She now enters it with n will, trust
ing 10 its just operation for future re-
dress of the asperitics of defeat. The
accession Of Germany to the league has
reconciled the jealous advocates Of
that body to what they had hitherto
consistently opposed partial guar
antee Of challengeable frontiers.
GUARANTEES FRONTIERS.
There is one element in the British
acceptance of the prospective burdens
of Locarno which must not be over
Looked. Britain at the time OF the
Paris conference entered into a joint
guarantee with America of the Rhine
frontiers. Although Britain was re-
leased from her undertaking the mo-
ment the Senate of the United States
Of America declined to honour the

uneasy feeling in Britain that France

Even when it is true that they are breaking statute, the psyhchology of criminality is entirely absent from their action.
 There is deep-seated conviction, in communities entitled to call themselves civilized, that In the last resort men should be free to refuse to work under conditions repungant to them.
 Apparently Judge Rolin does not un- derstand that frame of mind.
 "He seems to have become obsessed with the idea that, once the conditions of labor are regulated by law, the workesr should renounce the natural in stinct of liberty and be punished if they dare to act as free men. It is well for Australia that this degrading notion is not more widely spread.
 "Men strike because tyranny has not yet disappeared from human affairs, but has merely shifted its venue; and be- cause the spirit of freedom still lives, when the law becomes an instrument of class oppression.
