SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 1920 The Promised New League The Versailles League of Nations is dead, according to the President- elect, but the new administration in- tends to see that the United States plays its part ih the new association of nations that will be formed. In other words, the league is dead and a league is to be evolved that will express to the rest of the world the willingness of America to undertake its just part in protection of the peace of the world, but in accordance with its own constitution and its own judgment of what is just and right. That is the meaning of the election returns--the wish of the people of the United States to preserve the in- dependence of the nation in its asso- ciation -with other nations and to make the obligations of the United States accord with the policies that have been operative since the found- ing of the nation. 'To effect an association of nations such as President-elect Harding promises will require the best efforts of the best statesmanship in the na- tion. 'It calls for the deepest knowledge of international law that can be put at the disposal of the President in the new administration. It réquires the fullest knowledge to be had upon conditions in Europe, political, diplomatic, social and the individual characteristics of the vari- ous peoples who will be affected by the conditions of a league such as is planned. The experiment of a one-man de- termination of the responsibility of the nation has been tried out, to the complete satisfaction of everybody that it doesn't work in this country of representative government. That experiment has been an expensive one for the United States and it ought to be made to serve a useful purpose in pointing dangers in the way of a new administration. It should be made a guide in what. not to do to the President-elect, even be- fore he enters upon the duties of the high office for which he has been chosen. It rests with the new administra- tion to set the American people right in the estimation of the world, to correct the wrong impression that has been made by the refusal of the Congress to ratify the acts of the Président. It is in the hands of the new Congress and the new executive head to prove to the other nations of the world that the United States "as a whole is possessed of the same quality of ideals as to the respons- ibilty of the great nations of the world to protect the weak, and of the "obligation to establish some machine- ry by which the peace that has been 'won at such great cost shall not be sacrificed for such cause as sent the "world into war in 1914, 2 The program for the early part of the next administration is not likely to' be easy-to carry out, even after it is framed, which in itself will not be But it can be done and must be done, whatever the cost in work and time and the sacrifice of personal ambitions and ideas of what is ex- pedient. + found upon which the whole United ~ States government may stand and ~ the other nations of the world meet this country with mutual trust and regard. Nothing else can A common ground must be respect, redeem this country in the eyes of the people of the European countries who have been subjected to a sys- tematic education in the matter of the failure of the United States to measure up to the high opinion that had been developed because of the part that this country took in the defeat of the German kaiser and his war machine.
