They feel that England, whose gov
eminent sympathized with and aided
by passive completely the early stages
of the Franco rebellion, cannot af-
ford to see him win on these terms.
Therefore they conclude a little I'M
charitably that the proposed media
ton is a proposal under the mask
of humanity and liberalism to save
Franco from a complete collapse in
favor Of the Communists or from a
victory which will link Spain to the
politics Of the Fascist countries.
For us to participate in such a move,
other than by the very vague and
top-lofty Endorsement of peace al
ready uttered by the State Depart
ment. would be to take part in the
old balance-of-power game in Europe.
We don't want to play that game
again, and We don't intend to allow
our natural desire to have the Span

uncross our diplomatic fingers.
If-and it is a long "if"-France
and England are really ready to re-
store peace to Europe by mailing raw
materials and credits available to
those nations which have been
squeezed out Of their place in the
sun. we might sit in on the game.
But next time, the State Department
is determined, it shall be for the full
American program - economic and
military disarmament, and not just a
flock Of political treaties which can
be broken whenever it is convenient

His chances for a complete recov-

TINE Anglo-French suggestion
that the United States should
join In mediation in the Span
- ish civil war leaves the State
Department with much the same
sense Of embarrassment as young
man who asks for dance and is
accepted in marriage.
1t is quite true that the New Deals
higher officials look with increasing
sympathy upon the successful struggle
of the Loyalists in defense of Madrid
and with increasing horror on the
waste and atrocities OF the social con-
fiict. But the Roosevelt administra-
ton does not propose to go any fur
ther at this time than an expression
of humane and liberal sympathies.
This is in part because of the deep
cleavages which would emerge in our
public opinion were we to mix into
a struggle between two such groups
as communiStic LoyaliSts and Catholic
Fascists, just at time when Roose-
welt hopes to allay some of the bitter
ness aroused by the recent Coughlin-
Hearst campaign.
1t. is also because our traditional
policy toward Europe is crystallizng
around the unrealized ideal of Wood
row Wilson and is veering sharply
away from the policies of Theodore
Roosevelt.
T. r. tried to make the United
States a world power. and the last
time Spain made important interna-
tional news he had our Government
represented at the pre-war confer
ence of Algeciras. In this he made
a serious blunder, for we mistook our
role and helped isolate the Germans
at the very time when the British
hoped We would relieve London of
some Of the inconvenience of the
Anglo French entente. Thus we
helped precipitate the World War in
our ignorance Of the fact that We
were being used as a make weight in
the balance Of power
Diplomatic EntangIements.
Then Wilson staked American policy
toward Europe on the abolition Of
the balance of power. He thought
that the League of Nations would be
a "disentangling alliance" which
would rid US of the danger of an
other European war. His operation
was fine, but the patient died under
ether, because he found it impossible
to "disentangle" our peace conference
diplomacy from the emotional and
political commitments of the military
victory over the central powers.
The State Department now thinks
it sees its mistake There will be no
other Algeciras conference so far as
We are concerned. II We join other
European powers in mediation. In
Spain or elsewhere. it will be only as
part of much broader program to
reapply the old Wilsonian policy Of
ending the danger Of a general war
by a program Of freer trade or eco
nomic disarmament, which. by Civ
ing the have nots" access to raw
materials on fair terms, will rob their
statesmen of the need of aggression.
Our diplomats do not believe that
the HAYES" are yet in a frame Of
mind to make this final concession
to the cause of peace.
AS they see it, Frances attack has

Madrid, he cannot subdue Spain

T<H1S department recently noted

rusty and bristling beard is white and

he has plenty OF other railroad in

His 50 years Of rsilroadinr began

who do the leading. All great discov-
cries spring from the delight OF strong

We must fight for what we want and
