2 THE BEE: OMAHA, FRIDAY, JANUARY SI, 1919. U.S.ELIBARKIHG : Oil HEW POLICY ! BY LEAGUE PACT Wickersham Sees Assumption of Obligation That Will J Call Army to Euro- Y pean Fields. H (Continnrd from !' One.) '"but one, could attain at least to some of its results. At the conclu sion of the general war one could establish on clear and precise prin ciples the prescription of the rights iof nations. Why could not one sub mit to it the positive rights of nations, assure the privilege of neutrality and insert the obligation of never beginning war until all re sources which the mediation of a third party could offer have been exhausted, or until the grievances have by this means been brought to light, and effort to remove them has been made. "On principles such as these one could proceed to a general pacifi cation, and give birth to a league of which the" Stipulations wojld form, so to speak, a new code of the law of nations, which, sanction ed by the greater part of the na tions of Europe, would without difficulty become the immutable rule of the cabinets, while those who should try to infringe it would risk bringing upon themselves the forces of the new union." Has World Changed? ; .The language of this paragraph so apparently applies to the present situation. It is familiar to history how the high ideals of the czar were finally reduced to the terms of the Holy Alliance which, as Prof. W. A, Phillips says, "In its inception, at least, was colored by a lofty ideal ism, and ended by stinking in the nostrils of all lovers of liberty." This result possibly may be as cribed to the fact that Englind re mained outside on Alexander's proposition to invite the United States to agree with the European ilfies in the question of Spanish American colonies which was not adopted. It will always be a credit to his memory that the charter ' designed by this plan to restore each' nation to full and entire enjoyment of its rights and of its institutions, and to olace them all, including his own. under the safeguard of a general alliance in order to guarantee the one and to save the, other fromthe ambitions of a conqueror. The world was not then ready for such a plan, the czar himself as little' as any othei; as was found in the working out of the scheme. Is it oing to be more practicable today? Whence the Authority? In the course of the remaks with which he suported his motion, to adopt the resolution to create the league, Mr: Witson stated that representatives of the United States rtfcarded it as the keystone of the ilSole program, and he conveyed the impression that they were acting ifmler a mandate from the American - The House of Menagh Ba!Ba! Black Sheep Have you any wool? Yes, Sir! Yes, Sir! And so has Uncle Sam! Several bags full. And we tell you That this Will make A ivonderfu! difference In your pocket book At our Big Saturday Clearance Sale Watch' for our ad. people to exert all their power to bring about the adoption of this program. One would seek in vain to dis cover, in any resolutions of either house of congress, in any volume ot resolutions ot civic records, in any uniform trend of press expres sion evidence that the American people is unanimous, or even that there is a majority of sentiment actually and affirmatively support ing the proposition to commit the United 'States to an international alliance which shall make it resoon & ble, with other great powers, and ome small ones, for the preserva tion of the peace of .the world, and rttuire her to back up that responst bility by sending American soldiers on occasion to Europe, Asia and Africa. People Have Not Acted. I do not pretend to say that the American people may not approve entry into such an allaince, if the president, with the approval of the senate, sanction it, but the people have not yet expressly laid upon the president a .mandate to commit the country to such a plan. The man date must be like that of the messen i',tr who came to M. Paul in a dream, beseeching him to come over into Macedonia. Europe, however, assumes that , the American presi' dent voices Americas determina tion. One canstantly hears such state ments as that since America has1 abandoned her traditional isolation and assumed responsibility for Eu' ropean policies she must do such and such things; that as America has inited with Great Britain and France in overthrowing Germanytshe must share with them the responsibility tor the consequences, etc. it is taken as proven that we have abandoned Washington's injunction against foreign alliances and our Monroe policy as affecting the west ern hemisphere. What Allies Expect. And it is an open secret that some at least of the allies expect us to assume as mandatory of the league of nations the responsibility for the government of a considerable num ber of the former German colonies in Africa and possibly of Palestine, Syria or Constantinople. I am frequently asked by prom inent Englishmen!, Frenchmen and others here if I think the United States would be willing to undertake this responsibility. In reply I have said I believed that that the American people would be very unwilling to embark in any en terprise; that the proposition to as sume the government of the Kamer oons or German Africa or Togo land would he far from popular in the United States. Example in Philippines. , ' We have had undivided control of the Philippine islands for 20 years, and the benefits accomplish ed under the republican administra tions have been largely during the last six years. The partisan politi cal views' of the different adminis trations temporarily in control of our government recognizes no obli gation to carry out any settled na tional tradition or purposes regard ing colonies, as is the case with Great Britain or France. Can the results of conferences of the nations .naking up the league, which is in tended ultimately to embrace all Civ ilized governments, furnish any more stable or settled policy which would prevent such a reversal of 10 years' consistent program as the democrat ic administration inflicted upon the Phillippines, after its accession to power? Wilson Held No Such' View, . Mr. Wilson very truly said, in sup porting his motion, "The United State in entering the war never for a moment thought it was intervening in the politics of Europe, Asia or any part of the world. It thought was that there was a single cause that turned upon the issues of this war," that that was the cause of liberty and justice in the world, and therefore that the United States should feel that its part had been played in vain if there ensued upon u a body of European settlements. But Mr. Wilson is at this very mo ment engaged with the representa tives of the great powers in endeav oring satisfactorily to conduct a body of European, African and other settlements. Other Powers Are Wily. To an outsider it seems not im nrnhahle that there is on the Dart of representatives of some of the other powers, something of a con scious efffort to commit the United States to responsibility for various adjustments which are being urged. Mr. Wi son further said tnat tne United States "would feel that it could not take part in guaranteeing those European settlements unless that guarantee involved tne contin uous superintendence of peace of the world by the associated nations of the world." This implies undertaking a unit in that guaranty with the associat ed nations. Need Effective Machine. "Justice, as" between great and small nations," said Mr. Balfour, in speaking about a league of nations a few months ago, "is to be preserv ed, not merely by pious sentiments, not by elaborate treaties, but by some machinery which will be ef fective for carrying out the objects wherefore it was created." This machinery must involve the maintenance and, when occasion re quires, the use of armed forces. Sol diers and ships and materials of war must be provided to enforce the de terminations of a league. If the United States is to become responsible for the government of Constantinople or Syria or German East Africa, or any other place, she must send with her governors or other officers, warships with an ade quate force of American soldiers to prevent any resistance to the au thority which she is to exercise. Let Us Face Facts. Let us not delude ourselves, but face facts. As a result-of this war wc have become responsible for the overthrow of the governments of German. Austria-Hungary, Turkey and Bulgaria, and for the reorgan ization of Europe and of large parts of Asia and Africa on a basis best qualified to prevent future wars. But from the right bank of the Rhine eastward to the Pacific, ocean, and from the Baltic to the Red sea, con ditions of disorganization and chaos prevail which will not : soon be resolved into settled social order. Partitions may be made, or paper governments organized on the basis of the nationality prevailing in the territory assigned to them, but vast from the acts of men made desper ate by hunger and despair. Other methods, too, must be adopted to prevent the spread throughout Europe of the social disease known as bolshevism. The peace conference, at the very outset of its deliberations, has flinched in dealing with that menace, It means to establish a congress of small nations, yet it has not drawn up the resolution to send much needed help to Poland, the best bul wark against bolshevism. Local jealousies and conflicts of those ambitions and resentments which are strongest in the small and weak will develop among the newly- created nations. I hey can only be kept in check by the forces of the great powers. Pofers Dictate Justice. M. Clemenceau, on the same day that witnessed the adoption of the resolution to create the league of nations, replied sternly to the rep resentatives of the small nations who had protested against inadequacy of the representation accorded to them upon the various commissions cre ated by the conference to consider and report on important questions affecting their welfare, saying: We cannot accept the suggestion that any commission shall have the right to dictate to the five great powers. It was a blunt revelation of the fact that the great powers are form ulating and propose to pronounce the terms upon which the peace ot the world is to be established and by which the fate of the small na tions shall be determined. They will be accorded that jus tice which the five great powers agree to be justice, where they are concerned. America will share with Great Britain. France. Italy and Japan the responsibility of insuring the fulfill ment of the settlements that shall be made. America's Responsibility. The people of America must real ize that henceforth they are commit ted to more than merely an academ ic participation in the affairs of the world; that American khaki-clad sol diers, hereafter, may be found guard ing the shores of the Bosphorus. the banks of the Danube or the slopes of the Atlas mountains, if the United States shall disregard her obliga tions as a mandatory of the league. That is, if bolshevism and the timid ity of the five great powers in deal ing with it at this time shall drive Russia into the arms of Germany or submerge Poland, the league of nations, within another decade, may find itself at war with the United Teutonic and Slavic world in a new titanic struggle. It is the first step that counts. We have apparently taken a step from which we cannot retrace. What its consequences may be no man now may foretell, but the details of the league' constitution, when report ed, must be scrutinized with exceed ing care to make sure that we are committed to no greater responsibil ity for the regulation of continents other than our own than the hon orable consequences of our partici pation in this war may exact. Horror at Barbarism. The Matin this morning publishes an inspired article written to dem onstrate the proposition that when he united in the invitation extended by the peace conference to the bol- shevfki. as well as all other parties exercising or seeking to exercise au thority in Russia, President Wilson did not mean to alter his sentiment of profound aversion to those an archists, r. To sustain this thesis there is printed the text of a hitherto unpub- lshed communication sent Septem ber 24, last, by the secretary of state to the representatives of the United States in Europe, in which it is set forth that the United States govern ment had received from reliable sources information showing that peaceable citizens of Moscow, Pet rograd and other Russian cities were being made the victims of an avowed campaign of terrorism and were being sent enmasse to places of execution. Asked Concerted Action. Thfe government of the United States, feeling it no longer possible to remain silent and not being able to resist the expression of the hor ror which it felt concerning these acts of terrorism, declared that all civilzed nations must proclaim their horror at such barbarism. The American representatives, to whom this note was addressed, were therefore, instructed to inquire of the governments to which they were accredited, if they were disposed to "Sots-It" Peels y Corns Olf!

That's where the picnic comes in you peel it oft as you would a banana peel. Nothing else but "Gets-It" can do it. Get peaceful, common-sense "Gets-It."

Secretary Baker has removed the restric tion which has held since the armistice was signed, on promo tions in the army.. A cablegram sent to General Pershing author izes him to "make such promo tions among officers of the line up to and including the grade of colonel as will give the officers, who, in his judgment, deserve t, rank equal to the command exer cised by them." It was announced that the same policy would be carried out with respect to the army in the United States. Promotions will be made when necessary to give officers rank commensurate with the com mand being exercised and in he staff corps when appropriate to the work remaining to be done by such corps. take some action having no relation to the conduct of the war in order to make the authors of these crimes understand the aversion with which civilization regarded their abomin able acts. There was also included in the Matin's article the text of an official communication published at the same time bv the Associated fress, which briefly summaarized the aw ful crimes the bolsheviki were com mitting, and stated that for purposes of serving loyal Russians the United States had addressed to the civilized world an appeal calling for imme diate action. Recognition Results. This communique concluded with the following paragraph: "If the bolsheviki should be de clared outlaws by the entire world ihtv could find asvlum nowhere when they are overthrown, and could be sent before the proper tri bunals to answer further for their acts. It is believed that such a mea sure would aid the Russian people in overthrowing Lenine and Trot zkv. the Russian people knowing they had the approbation and sup port of the nations of the world." I his appeal thus tar has only re sulted in securing from the repre sentatives of the five great nations of the world assembled at the peace conference an invitation to the same outlaws whose crimes were so graphically described in Secretary Lansings communication, in com mon with those loyal Russians, who, without arms and without material resources, have been seeking to pre vent the complete submerging of all Russia under the Trotzky-Lenine wave of terror, to meet at the con- j ference table on Princes island. Bow to Expediency. The Matin's article proves too j much. It justifies .the feeling so profoundly expressed in many cir cles here that the peace conference has sacrificed fundamental principles of right and justice to the most su perficial counsels of expediency. Ever since the action was taken by conference excuses, explanations and attempted justifications have been appearing. This last apology in the Matin is evidence that the president is not insensible to the impairment of his moral position in uniting in the invitation to the bolsheviki . A high British authority yester day expressed his views of the peace conference as follows: "We are most anxious to restore order in Russia. It is utterly im- Pillows, Too!

Military intervention is out of the question. The Russian pro visional governments are opposed to it. Ihey protest against any foreign intervention or interference with their internal affairs." No such provisional governments other than that of Trotzkv and Le nine were specified as adopting this attitude. "Some of the provisional govern ments," he continued, "ask the great powers for munitions, money and food to enable them to carry on their respective isolated operations against tne bolsheviki, but were the allies to comply, this would merely help to prolong and intensify . the strite. Therefore the great powers of civ ilization assembled in .Fans to re establish the peace of the world on an enduring basis of justice instead of uniting in a declaration of out lawry against the redhanded mur derers invite Trotzky and Lenine, whose crimes have been officially recognized by the United States in Secretary Lansing's communication, to meet them in friendly counsel, while refusing arms and munitions to the loyal Russians "whose cour age is still undaunted" because to aid them "would merely help to pro long the struggle."

Ed Corcoran of York said he ap peared as the representative of his little 6-year-old daughter, who is at tending the parochial school at York, and whose parents, if the bill were passed, would be convicted criminals. George Weller of Seward, Neb., said he was opposed to such legis lation as would make the child be long to the state and that the state should have the monoply of its education. He said this was the Spartan idea and could not be 'tol erated ;save in a heathen country. A returned soldier named Hoyt said that he spoke as a soldier and a citizen who had done his duty "over there." Form of Prussianism. "Bismarck made Prussia what it was by state education," said he. "He first started with the state school, developed compulsory mili tary education and through these two elements produced militarism. "Two millions 6f American boys were called to stamp out Prussian ism and it is the irony of fate that when we get home we are compell ed to fight the same thing in the Nebraska legislature." The most illuminating talk made on the whole subject was by Mrs. Hattie Plumb Williams, member of the Lincoln Board of Education. She analyzed the bill and found it full of flaws in its various provisions. Calls Law Inadequate.

Mrs. Williams said the parochial schools were doing good work in the education of foreign-born chil dren and it would be unwise to elim inate them. She also said that there was peril in prohibiting the use of a foreign language in teaching for there was as great danger in Amer icanizing persons too far as there was in Americanizing them too slowly. The prohibition of a foreign language was too prone to separate a child from home and religious ties before he could form useful ones of his own independently.
