AMERICA REALLY IN THE LEAGUE.
“The United States is a member of the League of Nalions, in spite of its myth of isolation. As an economic power, seen or unseen, present at every council table, as a signatory of lie Kellogg peace treaty (assuming ratification), and as a master stakeholder in every play, the United States s in the League, and it matters little whether or not its adhesion is indi-
•ated by parchment and seals. True, formal abstention makes negotiations more tedious and oblique, but it merely delays American answers and decisions. If the League is a joke, it is a joke hated by all frantic nationalists who love wars and by all those Bolsheviks who bond to conquer mankind in the next world war.”—Professor Charles A. Beard in “Harper’s Monthly.”
