Big Three Alliance Supersedes League In Find Settlement European and American Viewpoints Differ Radically on Situation as Slnal Settlement of' War Chaos Approaches. LEAGUE OF NATIONS IMPRACTICAL IDEAL Material Problems Which Cannot Be Ignored Force Aside Plans of America and Dictate Final Peace Terms. By Frank II. Slmonds. The proverbial visitor from Mars would not find himself more perplexed or confused than the Amen- can returning to his own country after six months spent in the at zno8phere of Europe and In Imme.

diate contact with the facts of the' peace conference. At home a mighty controversy is plainly rag- log over the provisional settlements and permanent unsettlements of the Paris conference. So far the situation la identical with that in the French capital but while in France the argument centers about one set of circumstances. In Amen- ca the things debated are totally different. In a word.

the peace discussion in the two hemispheres i about wholly dissimilar questions carried on in an utterly dissimilar fashion. And at the outset of any examination of this dlfftrence it is es sential to note the primary fact. In the United States debate still centers about the league of nations in Europe outside the circle of Amer- icans closely' associated with the president the league of nations has' ceased to occupy attention. provoke to to put it quite bluntly it has ceased to exist. Instead.

the thing considered Is the future association of France. Great Britain and the United States an alliance which will perpetuate the present association In Paris and preserve world order and peace. There is another fact that Is equally necessary to emphasize and that is that there never was save for one brief emotional moment co melding with the presidents ar rival in Europe on his first trip any real belief In the league or nations in Europe. During that moment masses of people suddenly re lieved from the Immediate agonies of the conflict still broken with their suffering. looked to the presI- dent as a man from another world come to perform miracles transform empires.

MOMENT PASSED ALMOST INSTANTLY. But this moment passed almost Instantly. If the British French and Italian people were for a moment transported out of themselves they quite as suddenly' re turned to their normal condition.

If the British people desired permanent peace they did not in the least subscribe to the idea that they themselves and not the Germans should pay for the war for the wanton destruction on land and sea. The English people were not vftiling that the Germans should re-establish themselves in their old colonies along British waterways that German chips should replace British ships sunk by submarines. A for the French people they knew that the sole hope of French solvency lay in compelling the Ger- mans To repay for devastation. and they first demanded that military protection should be gained with victory- Italy. In the same fashion.

resolved. to build her future along the AdrlaLtlc. Europe was from the outset resolved upon an European settlement Only America with small losses set off by enormous economic gains would ever think of a peace of conciliation. And. so from the very outset an American and a European idea were in conflict.

President Wilson came to Europe to promote a peace of conciliation. based upon his fourteen points. and to be perpetuated by his league of nations which was to make war impossible In the fu ture. Europe the allies were equally resolved upon a peace Forwarding and Return Charges Paid on Diamonds Shipped for. Inspection.

DIFFERENT VIEWPOINTS. But given the essential facts the diplomacy of the great powers.

Britain France and Italy dealt with the American proposal In totally different fashions. particularly at the outset The British on their part with supreme good sense. elected not to oppose Mr. Wilson but to associate themselves with a proposal recognized by most of them to be decidedly unpractical. and gain thereby the incalculable advantage of new and closer friendship with the' United States.

The French. honestly but' moderately proclaimed their lack of faith in the Wilsonlan doctrine. while the Ital- ians stood coolly aside insisting at all times upon such national benefits as they had material claims upon. The result was inevitable. Iii the briefest time the British and American representatives in Paris were working in closest harmony.

Cecil Smuts anti half a dozen other British and colonial representatives were training the covenant of the league of nations. while between the French and American representatives there was In existence and between the Italian and American representatives there was growing up an estrangement which shortly endangered the peace or the world. Now in all this situation which resulted. in the greatest diplomatic triumph in. all British history Uis very hard to separate accident from design.

I do not believe it is true as is frequently urged that the British undertook to deceive or manipulate' the president and the American representatives. They Old not believe in the league of nations any more than the French but they saw. what the French failed to see that friendly and sympathetic association with the pi evident promised to pave the way to something eminently desirable. namely. a permanent Saxon alliance.

in fact if not on paper. SAW WITH CLARITY. They saw with equal clarity two other things they saw that there was very real likelihood that Chain. pionship of the presidents idea would remove the possibility of a clash over such issues as the freedom of the seas and the possession of the German colonies Henry IV. once said of his change of religion that France was" worth a mass.

and British statesmanship with equal vision recognized that American friendship accepting the president as representative or America. was' worth any amount of sympathy and aid to the president in furthering a plan which. whether practical or not. was without peril to British interests and had an appeal to certain elements in the British population. The other thing the British saw with the greatest clearness was that the war had changed the position of America.

Britain. victorious though she was. had been crippled financially and econom ically recovery if certain would be slow America was a potential rival Certain to occupy something of Britain's position In the world for some time to come certain to be the strongest single power on earth for many decades. There. fore.

to quarrel with America would be fatal and to quarrel over thu League of Nations mere fatuity. At this point It was necessary to add one. more thing. If British policy clearly pointed In' one direction there Is no less unmistakable evidence that the desire of many Englishmen without regard to national questions. was for a new basis of Anglo-American relations.

It there was calculation in British policy there was not less certainty spontaneous and widespread anxiety to establish newer and firmer friendship Between the two Englsh- speaking peoples. In sum. I am anxious to make clear that the British statesmen did not merely conspire to use Mr Wilson's idealism they and their fellow-countrymen came to Paris or. stayed at home equally resolved to promote tie cause of Anglo-American friendship. LEAGUE IDEA IMPOSSIBLE.

British statesmen. howeevr. saw dearly that the league of nations Idea could not succeed. They recognized that no peace or conciliation was possible. because they knew their Europe they knew their own people the French people.

and the Italian people would never consent to permit Germany to escape from the war unscathed to resume the old attacks while the nations attacked by Germany were left' ruined and bankrupt. What they expected was that as 6 league of nations project berame snore and more potently Illusive Anglo-American association. extended to Include France. would bet more and more powerful. until the three nations acting to gethr.

dominated. first the peace conference and later the' world. through the medium or a real unity of Interest. if not of solved covenants The league of nations thus. from the very outset.

meant for the British an French alliance. The French on their part. began very boldly. Like George Washington M. Clemenceau was incapable or telling a lie.

and unlike a wise diplomat. he ad to blurt out the truth tne result was. as I have said. instant estrangement between France the United States. as represented by Mr Wilson and a very unfortunate period of disappointment.

Frenchmen would not and could not believe in the league of nations with the memory of old and recent German invasions and devastations in their' minds. Moreover they knew and it' gave them furious rag that their allies cross the channel did not believe in the league of nations and they felt they were being abandoned by their British friends. whereas in. the main. they ere the victims of their own logic.

At a certain moment. this situation Was acute for the. French saw the British with Mr. Wilson's consent acquiring all the German col onle the German fleets. Turkish provinces.

while their far snore modest demands. such as the claim upon the Saar coal basin were denied by Yr. Wilson. and their Syrian aspirations. at.

least as legitimate as British pretensions in Mesopotamia violently opposed by Amen- can and British statesmen. This was the situation In the first stage of the peace conference. In this period Mr. Wilson. with British help.

framed the covenant of the league of nations. with British aid excluded French amendments de signed to give France security an Japanese changes drafted to remove the stinma of race inferiority. Then Mr. Wlls returned to the United States. So tar the league- of nations had been th center of European as ll as American discus- slon.

but at this precise moment the whole situation changed. TURNS TO MATERIAL PROBLEMS. With the presidents departure the peace conference turned front the league of nations to the material problems. territorial and economic. And at this point British policy nece ftrlly changed.

For Britain like France' and Italy had material Interests Involved. Like France and Italy she had economic and financial claims. Moreover she had secret. treaties alike with Prance Japan and Italy which bound her to support her allies' claims and even when these claims conflicted with the" fourteen points and' insured the impossibility 01 making a peace of conciliation. A a consequence when Mr.

Wil- son returned he round himself in the. presence of Europe. Europe had given him his league of nations It was prepared to give him such amendments as. the political situation in America demanded. Out in return.

it now. asked of him. his as sent to the material and practical conditions which had taken shape In his absence. Above all they de manded. that he should subscribe to the European' idea of German re sponsibility on the financial aide and to the provisions made in the secret treaties.

But these- European demands le gitimate justified approval since. If they were not satisfied. Franco was ruined Britain gravely wounded. Italy left with her own nationalities unsatisfied abolished all hope of a peace of conciliation. Germany after these terms had been imposed.

was- bound to. be crippled sullen resentful. She was bound to plan new wars and harbor all old resentments. While the Slavs. the Greeks and the Chinese were equally certain to re sist the decisions of the peace conference.

WILSON HAD TO CHOOSE. In this situation. Mr. Wilson had to choose he might retire fl the peace conference. he might remain rigidlY.

faithful to his tourten points and his dream of a peace ot conciliation. But retirement meant the collapse of' the whole stilt. unborn League of Nations and it meant in addition political difficulties at home which require no emphasis that he debated doing this. his" sudden call for the George Washington clearly indicates. That he found the threat of going was alone unavailable the sequence of events clearly demonstrated.

Mr. Wilson then' faced the great crisis. To. go meant the ruin of the' League of Nations. the success at home of his political enemies.

the contusion of the allied cause. But to stay meant to consent to a European peace to accept' terms oil of accord with his program of a peace it it meant to lose the commanding' role in the peace conference. The presidents decision was to stay. He believed he was con vlnced. that if a League of Nations were once established set in motion all else would.

in the end" re solve itself. Meantime. he would try. and' he did try. to obtain sucti modifications of allied claims as were possible.

He continued to fight. notably In. the case of Flume. for at least a semblance of his program of his fourteen points. FORMS NEW ALLIANCE.

Nevertheless in the very nature of things the League of Nations Idea disappeared. The settlement with Germany. territorially as well as politically based on Justice in the main insured permanent German futility and France demanded and obtained the presidents In dorsement of a guarantee against Germany which amounted in fact to a new French alliance. After this. there was no more European concern for the league or nations.

What the British has al ways seen as the big possibility of the league of nations in fact. what the. French had tardily recognized as the maximum of possibility was now arrived namely an alliance with the United States. Moreover this alliance was a fact In Paris and dominated the. peace conference.

Exactly in the same way' the- smaller powers recognized the fact they. too with their claims laid aside all hope or expectation of a league of nations and began to struggle for the material' facts openly. Poland and Czecho-Slovakia Serbia and Rumania. Hungary and Slovakia Serbia and Italy. Poland and Ukranla.

Rumania end Bulgaria Bulgaria and Serbia. turned from the thought of peaceful settlement to the preparation for conflict. When I left Paris on May 81 not less than eighteen wars were in progress in Europe alone. BREAKS DOWN BEFORE FACTS. In a word.

in the presence of national aspirations and dreams in eastern and in southern Europe. in the face of imperious material ne cessitl in western Europe. the whole conception of a peace of conciliation of a league or nations to. perpetuate an amicable solution. Mr Wilson's conception broke down and disappeared.

There was left only one thing- the French association. It would not Insure peace in Russia or in central and southern Europe. since it was unwilling to. send troops it could not prevent conflicts between rival races it could not. because- of the material facts concerning Britain.

France- Italy and Japan. make any but a victors peace with Germany and once It had agreed upon its terms and served them upon Germany it was plain that most of the dreams expressed in the. league of nations were incapable of realization. To sum up Mr. Wilson came to Europe with an American plan for solving European.

problems. But once the solution was applied to the facts It broke down. Mr. Wilson's principles for which he fought earnestly were put into the league of nations covenant and the' European nations solemnly accepted the covenant. but having done this they proceeded to frame their peace on the basis of facts.

financial eco nomical and territorial. COULD NOT DO OTHERWISE. They could not do otherwise. for any other course meant ruin for their countries and victory for Germany. But once this was done there emerged not a peace of- conciliation but a treaty which put Germany for tifteen years literally in the hands of her' conquerors and compelled her to.

work under their direction to repay the sums she had cost them tjiroug her attacks. But to do this meant' to transform the league of nations into- an alliance whose main business was. to keep Germany in hind until the account was settled. after an indefinite number of years. This briefly is the story of the In Europe of thq league of nations as a fact.

Europe having indorsed Mr. Wilson's- ideals applied its own principles it made a European peace. the best and most just European peace in history. I believe but something utterly re moved front Mr. Wilson's idea of a peace of conciliation and literally a peace only to be enforced by the continued application of actual force.

Moreover the nations. large and small. whose aspirations. frequently legitimate. were not realized.

de dined to accept the decisions of the peace. conference. and either resorted to arms or bided their time with the intention of ultimately appeal- Ing to arms. And in this situation the league of nations disappeared from calculations from the serious discussions of Paris save in American circles. whereas to the returning- American it seems to have con tinued to occupy American attention almost to the exclusion of alt else.

In Paris I talked with scores and scores of representatives of big and little nations. but never one did I meet who actually believed in the league of nations as the fact or the possibility it till seems to many Americans. What thy all talked about was' the French Ican alliance. which. I said at the beginning was the reality.

British statesmen from the beginning saw behind the' league of nations Idea and the French statesmen presently perceived. AMERICAS SHARE. Europe dots not believe in the- league of nations. It has accepted the covenant because America through Mr. Wilson asked for It.

To Europe it is America' share in the spoils of victory just as the German colonies fall to Britain and Lorraine to France. might have had' territory and mon ey It we had asked for them our right to claim both was never challenged. Indeed. Europe is anxious to have us take certain territories In Asia Minor. But the thing I am trying to say is that Europe adopted the covenant of the.

league of nations pot because It believed In the ides. but becaua It recognized that What Labor Commission Accomplished in Paris During the Conference. Second Only to the Conference Body Itself in Importance the Results of the Labor Delegates' Deliberations Will. Extend Over Generations. The following.

article on the de liberations of the labor delegates to the peace conference was written by John' Temple Graves Jr. than whom no better authority on this subject could be named. Yr. Graves was for months attached 10s the peace conference and attended all the sessions of the labor commission as representative for Mr. HurleYi one of the American delegates.

Prior to the war Mr. Graves was an economic agent for the federal trade commission in Washington and went to France as an officer of. the ninth artillery. Following the armistice he was transferred to Paris. Mr.

Graves'- article on the work- of the labor commission in Paris. which describes in graphic manner the re sults achieved by the commission as well as the personalities of the various delegates. follows By John Temple Graves Jr. Of the. several committees appointed by the peace conference to work and report upon single phases of the world reorganization none has been more Important or' more significant than the commission on international labor organization which completed' Us work at the end or March.

While the peace conference proper at the ministry of foreign affairs was constructing a new political world and an international political organization the labor commission at the ministry of labor was undertaking the construction of a new industrial world with an international labor organization to standardize and protect and improve industrial conditions the world over. And. al though' the labor commission was in Origin a committee of the peace conference. its delegates were at all times impressed with the. sig nuficance of their own assemblage- as representatives of industry and at ail times ready.

if need should be to act independently of the peace conference in the construction of a new labor world. For the most part they were a devoted. determined lot of men resolved bring about an international labor organization which would nave authority to' legislate internationally and which should be effective whether the league of nations became a living or a dead thing. The personnel of the commission was as notable In the Industral world as was that of the peace commission in the political. Each of the five great powers was represented by two delegates.

one for capital one for labor. There were Hurley and Gompers. for the United States Barnes a member of the British peace commission ituelf and Sir Malcolm flelevingne for Great Britain Minister of Labor Colllard and M. Jouhaux. president of the French Federation of Labor for France Baron Mayor des Planches and 11.

Carbrlnl" ror Italy M. Otchlal and Oka for Japan M. Vandervelde and. M. Slahal for Belgium and single representatives for Cuba Poland and the new Slovac republic.

Impressive Three. Most impressive of this aggregation were Messrs. Gompers Barnes and Mahalm. Gompers. venerable eloquent strong In the presumption that American industry and the great American Federation of Labor were- behind him.

was chosen presiding officer as a compliment to himself and to the United States. Everyone was. eager to compliment the United States at the opening of the peace confer. ence sessions. Yet.

the constructive statesmanship' of the labor commission was in George Barnes. the' British labor leader. It was Barnes and his colleague. Sir Malcolm Deleclgne who drew up the draft of a proposed international labor organization Whicn the commission finally accepted after dls- cussian and alteration. And In the debates incident' to the several readings of this draft Barnes showed all the qualities of a statesman of the first order.

He would de tend compromise fight concede. Improve. or explain with a clarity of mind and vision good humor. a tact and diplomacy that tamped him the dominating force in the commission. The third figure was Mahalm the Belgian college professor and sociologist who won the hearts of the other delegates with his unfailing sincerity and.

Intensity. and his rapier-like ntelflgence. one loved Mahaim and who found themselves most often in disagreement with him' could never feel that he was less than a devoted. humble painstaking idealist the nerve o'er which' do creep' the else unfelt oppressions of mankind. In watching these three' I often thought how Gompers stood forth as power.

Barnes as ability and Ma. halm as heart. An excellent tri- umverate to smooth labors path There were other interesting personalities too. Robinson who took Hurleys place for the United States. was subtle-minded practical.

patient courageous in his advocacy of the American position and in exposition of the peculiar difficulties adherent thereto. His was a far keener' mentality than that of Gompers. who was always more ready to fight than to understand more prone to thunder than to construct. There was Jouhaux president of the French Federation' of Labor a propagandist with too resonant a voice and" an irritating. habit of making lurid speeches on large abstraction in the middle of discussion on some delicate and involved point America who had associated with' the allies in the victory asked for such a covenant.

It proved Leek of faith in the idea by proceeding thereafter to make peace on an Eu ropean- basis without regard to the Ideas of the league of' nations and thus. completely eliminated the league of nation as an actual living fact. But Europe would not have adopted the covenant of the league of nations had not British statesmanship seen in it the first step toward Anglo-American alliance with ultimate French participation. And today this alliance is iii that is left in Europe. sillies and enemies alike of.

the league. of nations principle. It la the fact Which bat survived the melting pot of the peace negotiations. But to end where I began this Is something totally different from the view which seems to" prevail in America to th amazement of the returning exile. Copyright.

1 1 for TUt Constitution. an Industrial demagogue. who might have made a better Impression if he had listened more and said less or had not been placed directly across the conference table from Mahalm whose quiet sincerity keen wit and cleanly personal ap pearance contrasted hint pleasantly with the thunderous labor leader. FroiriuIoBBl Thinker. If louhaux was the.

professional talker It wa Vandervelde. of Belgium who- was a vigorous men- thinker. His was a vigorous mentality applied too profusely and with too little discrimination. Listening to him one became convinced that Vandervelde had no heart to inject into the work but was a born harrier. Whenever he rose to.

speak there were sure to be criticisms and battles- of wits over things comparatively unimportant he seemed concerned only With taking' part In everything that occurred. Near him sat Baron Mayor des Planches of Italy a voiced. well- meaning diplomat of. the old school. He- represented Italy well enough but was not a.

dominant figure. Then there were the two Japanese delegates who said very little perhaps because their English was so atroci- one that no one understood them when they dia speak. This was unfortunate. a there was a disposition to be especially' considerate of expressions from Japan. It was tire misfortune of the United States delegates that.

upon each of the two points in the British draft about which. most of the debate centered they stood almost alone in opposition. The first was a question' of principle the' second one of fact. The first point was raised when article 4 of the British draft was introduced. This article provided that the labor conventions to be held in future should be composed of representatives from three groups employees employers- and governments and that each nation should have tour delegates.

one represent. log employees one employers and two government. Mr. Barnes explained that there were two rea- sons- for the double vote given government. First that the success of the commissions' work would de penS upon the willingness of the several governments to ratify and that those governments would be less likely to surrender quotas of their sovereignty to an international body composed only a regards one- third of its delegates of represen.

tatives chosen by the. governments themselves. Secondly Mr. Barnes believed that labor must entrust Its hopes for the future In govern. ment and' should set every energy toward a closer alliance with and a larger participation in the political unit embracing it the socialistic Idea.

AU the European delegations with the exception of- the French Supported the British view. Gompess 1. Opposition. Mr. Gompers was thunderous In opposition.

One of' his long te nets Has been that the American Federatldn of Labor must hold aloof from entangling political al liances and that labor conditions more generally progress In spite of government than with the aid of it. long tenets are not matters about wkich. men will reason especially Mr. Gompers who her undoubtedly took his position in op position first and then looked about him for reasons in support of that position. Ho found a.

number of them. If the object of the double vote for government was to Insure a balance between the political and industrial groups in future conventions he insisted that this would be accomplished if government had one vote labor one- and. capital one- He himself could not conceive a oaU tion of capital and- labor against government. Here Mr. Gompers showed' the difference' in the way American.

and British labor leaders are looking at industrial problems the later are thinking in terms of industry as a whole with a co hated capital and labor. while the American conception lsof a distinct capital and fabor forever at The American and French delega tions were. finally outvoted on' this question and the double representation adopted. The difficulty involved the' politi cal fabric of the American- government and the' debate was as to a question of tact alone. Inorder to make effective the conventions which future labor conferences might adopt article or the British draft provided that each of the high contracting parties undertakes that' it will within the period of one year from the end of the meeting of the conference' communicate its formal ratification of the con vention to the director and will further take steps necessary to put the convention into operation unless such convention is disapproved by its legislature.

In other words unless the national legislatures take' positive action against. the conventions they become binding after a given period. The lawmaking power Is vested In the. in ternational body and only the' right- of veto left to the national governments. Mr.

Robinson very ably presented the difficulties in the way of ac ceptance of this by the United States. He' had first consulted American- constitutional lawyers and was able to state quite positively that the article would be unconstitutional In that it Involved a delegation of legislative powers. It would mean that a foreign body was authorized to legislate for the United States and that the right of veto alone remained' to the congress. The senate could not and would not accept such an arrangement and' even if it did the su preme court would declare. It unconstitutional.

He pointed out further that In' the United States all powers not expressly delegated by the constitution to the federal government are reserved to the states and that labor legislation was classed as a police power and reserved to the states. Therefore even if the constitutional difficulty Involved in the proposed delegation of legislative powers to a foreign body were solved it would' still be impossible for the United. States to ratify. since' the federal government had not the authority to bind the several states in respect to labor legislation. Attempt to Appease To obviate the objections presented by Mr.

Robinson- Mr. Barnes offered amendments to his own draft. He proposed to strike out the last clause of of-article 18 unles such convention is disapproved by its legislature" and substitute the clause Unless such convention fails to obtain the consent of the' national authorities concerned" Further to add an additional paragraph. as follows in the cause of a federal state if the power of legislation on any matter dealt with in a convention rests with the legislatures of the con stituent states the high contracting party will communicate the convention to' the' constituent states and each such state may adhere separately to the convention Notification of the adhesion of any such states through the federal government to the director shall be deemed to- be the ratification of the convention in respect to that- state. Mr.

Robinson could not accept this amendment as a solution of the American difficulty. To put the veto power Into the hinds of the' national authorities concerned" In stead pf the legislatures Old not shake it any' the less a mere' veto power the unconstitutional delegation of legislative function re mained. And the attempt to treat each of the states of a federation of states separately In the matter of adherence he considered impractical for if one such state after ratification should violate an in ternatlonal convention it would. be impossible to go over' the head of the federal government In. applying penalties to that stats.

Mr. Robin- son proposed that article IS be left Intact and that the following paragraph be added In derogation of the foregoing and because of the fact that certain of' the high contracting parties. by reasonof their internal organization may be unable' to make a valid binding agreement In' accordance with the terms of this convention. It is understood that in that event it shall be obligatory upon such high contracting party to use its-best endeavor to obtain a substantial compliance with. the provisions of this article.

However if for. any reason any such power shall fall the period. of months to bring about. legislatively or- otherwise a substantial compliance with such convention then and in that. event the other bight contracting parties who may.

be bound under this prevision shall if they- so elect be re leased from the operation of this provision of the said convention. It is evident that under Mr. Robinsons' proposal the international. organization would be a very weak one. dependent at all times Upon the good will and favorable circumstances of the nations" involved.

Sir. Robinson was quite ready to see this. but pointed out repeatedly that no system of absolute sanctions or penalties was Possible' if the ratlf cation of the United States was to be had. Matter Not Ended. The Robinson amendment was.

finally voted down in favor of the British which was Incorporated into the draft as finally reported- back to the peace conference. Of course the' matter does not end there for the contention of the American delegates that their senate cannot' and' will not ratify such a convention still stands. This was the- most vital point debated in the sessions and upon the eventual outcome of It depends the effectiveness of the' proposed international labor organization. Mr. Robinson insisted that he.

was as eager as Mr. Barnes to build- a labor organization which would be something more than a debating society the disagreement was simply as to a question of legal- fact. It was another- case of the willing spirit and the recalcitrant flesh. One cannot be an idealist for Ia- for and fall to believe that a way will be found out of this difficulty which threatened the success- of In ternational labor organization. Progress has a.

habit. of' proceeding headlong over institutions and laws and constitutions. One Bird Builds Several Nests. Some birds get very nervous and become much excited If you approach their nests and. among them is the throated green.

June 21 At the dinner glvenrlday night in honor of President and Mrs. Wilson by the- King and Queen of Belgium with Cardinal Mercier and other distinguish ed guests present. the president. ad dressing King Albert spoke as follows Let We express sir the ver deep appreciations with which-I I have heard" your' remarks. You truly say that I have come to Belgium to express my own deep personal in terests and sympathy sympathy with her sufferings and Interests in her prosperity but I would have no personal consequence it it were not.

my privilege for the time be log to represent the. people of tn United' States. Sympathy for Belgium. What gives me. confidence in expressing this sympathy and this Is La that I know in expressing those sentiments.

that 1 am ex pressing- the feelings of the people of. the United States. There' has never been in the United States a more general and universal comprehension of sympathy with the affairs of. another nation than that which the' people of the United' States have had for the affairs and. the people of Belgium.

I have had the very great advantage of seeing the little that I have had time to see of the experi ence' of Belgium under our guidance and I know now true it is sir that you speak for your' people. One of the delightful experiences of these last da a has been to hear' the acclaim from the heart which everywhere greeted le rot. Their first cry was for their king their second thought was the welcome of the stranger. and I was glad In my heart that it should be so. because I know- that.

I was with a real statesman and a real ruler. No moan has any power sir except that which is given him by the things and people he represents. King Called True Democrat. I have felt. many points of sym pathy between' the people whom I have the pleasure of representing and the people whom you They are a very democratic people and it has been very delightful to find sir.

that you' are a true democrat. AU Teal masters of the senti. ments of the people are' parts of the people and one of the things that gives confidence in the future of Belgium is the consciousness that one has of the. self-reliance and Indomitable spirit of her people. They need to have' a friendly har ex tended to them but they do not need to have anybody take care of them.

A people that is taken care of by its government is a people that its government will- always have to take. care of. but the people of Bel-glum It I have caught' any glimpse of' their spirit and their character do not need to' have anybody- take' care' of them. They need. because of the catastrophe of this war temporary assistance to get the means to take car of' themselves.

but the moment they have. these means then the rut of us will have to take care to see that' they do not do the work they are addicted to do better than we do. The minute we cease to offer this assistance thev will be come our generous and dangerous rivals and for my part I believe I can say truthfully that the people of the United States want the. people of Belgium- to recover. their power" to be rivals.
