Of sir articles the San Francisco conference,
uUrittsr BY Mr.. Sokoisky. whe spent many years
as an American eorrsspondsnt in Europe and the
Far East.
WOODROW WILSON approached the peace
w from the lofty position Of international
morality. His Fourteen Points rejected expedi-
ency as his procedures rejected secrecy He re.
fused TO build a world peace on vengeance and
hatred.
Wilson's difficulties arose from the "resl-
ism" OF his associates. The Treaty OF Versailles
contrsdicted the Fourteen Points and even the
Covenant Of the League Of Nations. need but
cite example, the Shantung settlement by
which irrefutable Chinese territory was given To
Japan. 1t was this sort OF practical settle
ment that ruined Wilson's moral ambitions.
Franklin ID. Roosevelt misunders TODD Will
sons difficulties and failure. Apparently he
believed that Wilson failed because the Senate
would not support him and that the Senate would
not support him because it knew what was being
done.
Therefore he pursued course of secret
diplomacy The peace conferences, no matter
how numerous, deal with fragments OF the sub
ject disclose only Splinters OF decision, ana
revolve about a SecretiVe triple alliance Whch
mirrors in process and motive Mettenichs
quadrupe alliance that followed the downfall OF
Napoleon.
MIR ROOSEVELT entered the moraist.
WI His Atlantic Charter sounded high note.
Although 1t was private declaration, as was
Wilson's Fourteen Points, il was readily accepted
BECAUSE it offered moral equivalent for war.
He did not go so far as 10 reject war as an
instrument for the settlement OF international
disputes, bat he did recognize the right of every
people to choose their own government.
As the European proceeded to victory,
Mr.. Roosevelt was apparently faced with the
necessity OF appeasing his irreconcilabie but
practical allies. Mr.. Roosevelt went realistic.
which means. in simple terms. that he accepted
Stains boundaries and Keynes economics. 1t
meant emphasizing expedencies for the present

some nervous disturbance is re-

In any event, there are GER
