Letter to an American.
By Andra Lichtenberger, in L’Oplnion, Reprinted from the Living Age*
Wlv UUUiUSiUfl VJ1 UIO VIMb VIA iAA.
Vlvianl to America, you have the
kindness to manifest anew the friend
ly sentiments cherished by your coun
try toward France. You anticipate
that the visit of this eminent states
man and the warm reception which he
has received will dissipate the shad
ows which various events, and par
ticularly the attitude of the United
States toward the Versailles treaty,
have cast upon the pleasant relations
between the two countries. In this
connection, you Indulge in certain
considerations and reflections which
I think I summarize rightly in the
following paragraphs, where I shall
headline a few phrases in order to
bring their substance prominently be
fore you:
The United States sincerely loves
France. It loves justice. It has proved
this double affection not only by inter
vening on the side of the allies in the
world war, but in countless other ways,
both public and private. To fancy that
the country will change Its attitude and
become pro-German is an insult to Its
sincerity and an absurdity. But Amer
ica's recent experiences with the Europ
ean bear garden have utterly disgusted
it with the old continent. America will
not sign a treaty negotiated by an im
practicable visionary, which would in
volve it permanently in a host of in
trigues and complications, and might ob
ligate it to engaged in a new war for
objects in which «the country has no im
mediate interest. Favored by their
geographical situation and by an atti
tude of mind several centuries in ad
vance of that of Europe, the people of
the United Stales will not sacrifice their
free initiative by engagements either
Utopian or reactionary. The Americans
intend to devote themselves to their own
material and moral progress, without
ceasing, however, to Interest themselves
in all questions truly related to the gen
eral welfare of mankind. If a sufficient
and proper reason should again arise for
American intervention, Europe_»"*i
France in particular—may rest assured
that the country will do Its duty in the
future as it has done its duty in the
past.
You appeal to my kindly feelings
toward yourself and toward your
country to enlighten you regarding
the sentiment ot my own people. I
shall try to comply with your desire
candidly and clearly. I am confi
dent that your honest wish to know
the truth will prevent your taking
offense, if I am perfectly frank in
explaining to you why your argu
ments are not satisfactory in oar
eyes. Before I do that, however,* I
beg you to set aside any idea that our
two countries are unfriendly. We
feel completely assured that through
your political course may sometimes
embarrass us, America is truly and
profoundly the friend of France. * * *
* * * The case is very simple.
Each of the victorious nations was
compelled to sacriflc many of Its in
dividual claims, and to make heavy
concessions to its allies, in order to
bring about the settlement at Versail
les. We assumed that we were re
ceiving in return for these concessions
a treaty based upon the unanimous
consent of the belligerent powers,
France had been so cruelly lacerated,
so weakened in Its financial and its
military strength, that it was inclined
to impose upon Germany exceedingly
severe requirements to compensate
tor its injuries, and to safeguard Us
future. We lightened these require
ments fer several reasons, the prin
cipal one of which was our deference
for President Wilson*—that is to say,
for the United States. Without hav
ing excessive illusions regarding the
League of Nations which Wilson had
conceived, we felt that it was safe
for us to reduce our own demands,
providing the treaty of Versailles,
and the league which it created, were
guaranteed by the signature of your
great republic. That signature was in
our eyes such a valuable guaranty for
the liquidations of the war and the
future of the world, that we did not
hestitate to sacrifice things to which
we attached utmost value in order to
obtain it. Now, it is this very sig
nature which you refuse us. The
consequence is that, with cr without
your will, we have been seriously in
jured.
*_
“FAITH” AND “WORKS.”
“Trust in the Lord and keep your
powder dry.” The first half of this rule
of conduct contradicts the second half.
If you trust in the Lord, why keep your
powder dry? When spiritual systems
of healing are born they stick to the
first half and throw the second to the
dogs. Before many years they pick up
the second half and incorporate it
among their 'rules of action.
When the term spiritual is made bread
enough to include the mind cures we
find a list as long as the moral law—
^whatever that is. All of the mind cures
are open to the same criticism. They
start off with: Have faith in the cure,
based on the supremacy of mind over
matter. And they end vs 1th: K op your
powder dry, or look well to your health
habits.
I have no quarrel with the metho 1,
not even with its contradictions. 1 have
seen most dramatic mind cures or re
ligious cures, whichever you want lo
call them. I have seen remarkable
cures by suggestion. But for the long ,
run ank the everyday ! know that what
counts is health habits.
If the two parts of the double barrel
philosophy are contradictory I cannot
help it. It is enough that for the long
run they all get that way. Therefore,
when 1 took up Dr. George F. Bull r’s
book entitled “How the Mind Cures” I
was not disappointed when I found that
it was double barreled.
• The best proof that the mind cures is
the fact that it cures. Cases that are
cured by the mind arc within the ob
servation of nearly every one. 1 do not
know that I accept all of Dr. Butler’s
very able analysis of consciou ness into
the supraconscious, the conscious, and
the subconscious mind. It seems to me
that I have read arguments on the same
subject in which his order was burned
upside down and what he called the
supra conscious mind. Be the explana- ;
lion whatever it may, the fact remains
that Dr. Butler shows that the mind
cures and that it always has, sometimes
under one flag, sometimes under an
other; sometimes under one explanation,
sometimes under another.
As one reads his chapter on the his
tory of psychotherapy one is remii -led
that a thing inay be very right though
the explanation of it may be very
wrong. One certain point Is that Dr.
Butler teaches that one must have a
philosophy of life. With that there can
be no quarrrl. One can have a frreat I
many very mfeiarablt and harmful men
tal h*bi ts and escape a good part of the j
penalty if he can develop a philosophy
of life. TrH permits him to shed trou

be taken back. It Is Impossible now
to impose additional penalties upon
Germany. But the equivalent which
we expected to receive for those con
cessions is denied as. Since the Unit
ed States refused to sign the treaty
of Versailles and to join the League
of Nations, our financial situation,
which was not good in any case, and
our political situation, which is pre
carious at best, have been rendered
much more critical. Whether you
wish it or not, our guaranties that
Germany will pay us and that it will
refrain from hurling Itself against ua
again, have been weakened.
I know your reasoning; "President
Wilson was not authorised to make
promises for the United States, sad
the allies should have known that.
So much the worse for them.” Let
me say, a little bluntly, perhaps, that
this argument is worthless, and that
If some statesmen and newspapers la
Europe have seemed to take it seri
ously, It is only In order to make poli
tical capital against the parties in
power, whom they wish to discredit
and dethrone. It is you, the people
of the United States, who have made
your constitution. It Is you, the peo
ple of the United Statea who have
elected and subsequently re-elected
President Wilson. Until be was re
elected we migh argue about his poli
cies and his personality. Both aroused
more or less doubt In some of ua
You will perhaps recall that we criti
cized him rather vigorously for a
short period, when we supposed, on
the basis of false reporta that Mr.
Hughes had been elected. From ths
day when President Wilson became
the first magistrate of the United
Statea, we could no longer discuss
him. We-had to accept him. •*••••
You are today within your technical
rights, under your constitution, in dis
avowing him and in refusing to ratify
bis acts whlih you diisapprave. But if
you will rise for a moment above
this somewhat over-simple and self
centered point of view, , you will rec
ognize that it is not quite Just that
we alone should suffer from the tact,
that you re-elected Mr. Wilson in
1916, and that you subsequently took
a dislike to him and his ideas. Yon
are the ones who Invested him with
power. You therefore share respon
sibility for our present unhappy sit
uation. We did not submit to Mr.
Wilson's direction out of personal re
spect for the man; we did so be
cause a majority of the great Ameri
can people bad made him Its agent,
ana because we would have been
lacking in our duty and our friendship
to you if we had opposed him. • • • • •
It is unfair that we alone should be
handicapped by concessions which we
made because he spoke in the name
of America, and for which you now
refuse tg give us the return which he
proinlsea us 'ifhls is our point of
view. What is the conclusion whWi
must be drawn? In my opinion, it lg
• • • * that, if you refuse to stgfi Ths
treaty, you owe us, if not by the
letter of the law. at least by the can
ons of equity, an indemnity. In place
of the equivalent which Mr. Wilson
contracted to give us, and which you
have refused—your signature to the
treaty of Versailles and your partic
ipation to the League of Nations—we
are entitled to expect .some other com
pensation.
It is Impossible that you will not
see, after reflecting on the matter at
leisure, that America is in a certain
degree responsible for all the acts of
its duly elected president, and that the
nation belittles itself by pretending
that the engagements which he made
In Its behalf can be lightly disregard

us quote his philosophy for sleeping—
a cure for most cases of insomnia:
“On goiing to bed at night, after
taking your breathing exercise you
should understand that, first of all,
though .sleep is your object in going
to bed, it is not so essential that you
must attempt to force it on your
senses, for such a notion is the very
thing that will prevent your sleeping,
if anything will.
“It will make you anxious, and anx
iety is death to sleep. Just assume
a natural, easy position and give your

You can loam to submit yourself to

to think at such a time is useless.”
Subsidized Transportation.
From the New York World.
An article in the June Forum by Ed
ward G. Riggs, an official of the New
Haven railroad, calls attention to a
prow.em which is growing rapidly la
importance—the disparity between the
, taxes paid by freight-carrying trucks
and the taxes paid by railw&ylL As an
established industry the latter have
borne a large share in the tax burdens
of the states and the nation; the motor
truck, having leaped into prominence
almost overnight as a short-haul car
rier, has so far escaped its due quota
of taxation—has, in fact, transformed
the city streets into switchyards and the
intcrurban roads into freight lines,
while paying usually a smaller license
fee than is asked of tour.ng cars.
If all this cost the public nothing the
new service might be acepted with
thanks and no more words, but it is
indisputably true, as Mr. Riggs points
cut, that in the spring or summer when
the roads kre in an unstable condition
one five-ton truck loaded to capacity
can “do ^nore damage in one trip than
constant light traffic over a period of
weeks or even months.” As tilings
stand, the public keeps up the roads
and the trucks ruin them.
It would be utterly useless to try tax
ing the truck out of existence. It is
here to stay and it fills a place which
the railroads never filled and could not
take. But the truck ehould help to
maintain its own roadways; perhaps in
the »nd there must be a special sys
tem of roads for freight carriers. And
it shctfkl not escape merely because It
is mobile a fair share of the additional
lax burden* which the railroads being
fcHf-j to find, are unable to avoid.
