THE WORLD UNDONE
AMERICA BLAMEWORTHY
STRONG PLEA FOR ACTION
(By Electric Telegraph—-CoDyright
(Received This Hay at 8 a.m.) HALIFAX, July 23
Addressing a, huge gathering at a civic reception tendered to the Imperial civic luncheon tendered to the Imperial Press Conference delegates, Mr Robert Donald, Chairman of tho Imperial Press said the failure of America to assume . some of the responsibilities imposed by her entry into the war was largely responsible for the unsettled World conditions. The two branches of the Eng-lish-speaking peoples acting harmoniously in peace as in war, could have reconciled, or silenced the clashing interests in Europe, and led the new democratic States into the paths of peace, and established the League of Nations on a sure, foundation. Then the World would be safe for democracy. “Let us hope the lapse is temporary. President Wilson was an inspiring moral force for democracy two years ago, arid the hopes of humanity were centred in him. The failure to live up to his lofty principles and noble ideals, has chilled the hearts of millions who put th "r faith in him and almost worshipped him. They look sorrowfully on the moral lapse of America as a- tragedy of history.”
