LEAGUE MIGHT TRY FRESH START
The League of Nations as visualized by Woodrow
Wilson is, for all practical purposes, washed up. It was
quite helpless, as a matter of fact, long before II Duce’s
Fascist legions took their 40-year vengeance at Adowa.
For the league ceased to be of any value when it ceased
to preserve the peace.
The crucial question facing Europe and the world
now, therefore, is this: Shall the slate be wiped clean
and a new league structure raised on the ruins of the
first one ?
Great Britain’s Anthony Eden believes, for one,
that no time should be lost in shaping a new league
covenant. There are other statesmen who agree with
Mr. Eden, but stress the point that the league without
Germany, Japan and the United States is a weapon
that cannot be used against an aggressor without ap
palling risks.
Still other diplomats contend that a strong league
is impossible until all nations are armed adequately to
back up the collective aims of the body.
But what ever is diagnosed as the real weakness
of the league, the important thing for these European
statesmen to remember now is that it is still not too late
to talk peace. The league has been successful in many
important difficulties, and its failure in the Italo-Ethio
pian dispute should not mean the end of the pacific ges
tures.
The sooner these nations recognize the conquest of
Ethiopia as a deplorable, but accomplished fact, and
proceed therefrom with a clean slate, the sooner will
Europe approach the collective security its people pray
for and its diplomats prate so much about.
Europe has dodged the inevitable for a long time
now, and only under the urgency of the Italian defiance
on one hand and Herr Hitler’s on the other have Its
statesmen finally come out to lay their cards on the

table. Complete adjudication of injustices left by the
treaty of Versailles cannot be delayed long.
The colonial question, the war debts issue, and the
economics of post-war Europe must be opened to an
entirely new approach. The nations of the old world
must learn to live with one another.
Whether the existing structure of the league can
be revamped to insure a new collective security, or
whether Europe chooses to fall back to the old and
tricky system hinging on the balance of power, is the
important question now.
Whatever answer Europe makes is its own respon
sibility.—Exchange.
Fast driving is said to be the cause of most auto
mobile accidents, but you can hardly get a fast driver
to admit it.
The idea of woman’s superiority falls by the way
side when one considers the prerogatives that many of
them get.
When a person serves without pay, in any capac
ity, he might as well expect a few blows below the belt
and from the rear.
One of the puzzles that confront the student of hu
man nature is the great attraction that scandal has for
minds that belong to the pure in heart.
When you see a young man busy attending to his
own business you may feel sure that he will one day
be an old man with some business to attend to.
Business men spend one-half of their time trying to
scheme to get somebody else’s money and the other
half of their time trying to keep somebody else from
getting their money.
