MINISTER BRIAND AND
A YANKEE REPORTER
The Kellogg-Briand treaty out
lawing war, accepted by more than
2o nations, had its start in a report
er’s search for a good story.
Eprly in 1927, Smith F. Reaves
an American Associated Press re
porter in Paris, asked Aristide Br
and, Foreign Minister of France,
tor a message to America to be pub
lished April 6, the tenth anniversary
of America’s entrance into the World
War.
Since Briand had already negoti
ated the Locarno pacts and received I
Hie Nobel prize for work in behalf
of peace, Mr. Reaves suggested !
Mint the French minister speak of
peace in his anniversary message.
Briand approved the suggestion
The reporter and the foreign minis
ter had several talks, and Briand!
promised the desired message. Ho |
delivered it on the day set April 6th, i
1 927; and it was the breath-taking
proposal that France and the United
states make a treaty, each renounc
ing forever war against the other.
Anyone who cares to turn bac'-'
vc the newspapers of that date will
tod that Brian’s proposal was re
ceived at our State Department with
almost contemptuous indifference;
it. fact, with something close to hos
tilitv.
Secretary Kellog seemed to be
sneering at the whole idea, and
President Coolidge appeared quite
satisfied with the attitude of the Se
cretary of ’ •’ e. Then other forces
took a hand.
The American people had cheer
ed the Briand proposal from th<
fir-t. The various women’s socie
ti<*«. in particular, were enthusiastic-j
ally i,i favor of it; and the churches J
without regard to denomination,
gave it warm indorsement.
Still the State Department contin
*u<:-d cold; until Nicholas Murrav !
Butler, president of Columbia came
out with a pronnneiamento which
shook things loose. In the express
ive language of the street, Mr. But
ler “threw a tit.”
He had demanded to know why
n answer had been made to the
Fiench proposal, and whether all
American declarations in favor of
woHd war peace were just pious ;
shams, and a lot more embarassing j!
questions. !
The upshot was that our State De .
pu'tment suddenly discovered tha' <
the Foreign Minister of France had «
said something which really requir- •
ed attention. Negotiations follow ’
ev • and now the treaty, one more J
hairier to war, is an accomplished )
fact. '
But the whole splendid work be- | .
gan with a Yankee reporter calling «
on a French cabinet member to get ■
a news story.
It should be added that Mr Reavis
in evidently an uncommonly good re
porter, and that both he and M
B: 5and have wit to know what a
good story really is.—LABOR.
