CONSERVATIVE : SAVEJ
Portland Oregonian Takes Posi
tion for the League
A VERY TRITE EDITORIAL
Every Reader Should Peruse the
Following
F.very reader of this paper
should rend (he following ex
cerpt of Monday's Oregonian
auelit, the League of Nations:
"Men who speak of the league
as a danger to the Monroe doc
trine have short memories. They
forget that it is but a few years
since we regarded (Jennany ns a
menace to that policy, were anx
ious fur its formal acceptance by
F.uropean nations and were con
sidering what uatinns might help
us to maintain it. That police is
simply an assertion of the right
of nations to sclf-determiiialiou,
which (he league proposes to ex
tend to other continents mid to
back with the power of nil
nations in place of one nation. It
is reasonable to assume that the
league would entriisf settlement
of any trouble in this hemisphere
to the I'nited States, fur I''.urupi:
has troubles of its own, which
the league would delegate F.uro
pean nations to settle.
Much is said about the sacri
fices which we should make as
members of the league, What are
they? Limitation of armaments;
is not that what we have long
advocated, condemning the ar
mament race ns madness? When
others consent, shall we hold
back? Arbitration of justiciable,
disputes; has not that been our
established policy nud .should
we not welcome means to make
it universal and to back its de
cision with force? Mediation of
other disputes; what terrors has
that? How Could the other
league members compel us to
to submit to its decisions on
questions of national policy such
as every nation insists on decid
ing fur itself, when they have
such cpiestions of their ow n and
would hesitate to make n prece
dent which would plague them?
Ho (hey also not make sacrifices
by joining (he league? l?ut for
its restraints they could divide
(he (ierman colonies and all of
Turkey among them without be
coming mandatories of n league.
France could have the Rhine
frontier, Italy the whole cast
coast of the Adriatic, including
Albania. They yield much for
(he sake of the pence which tin)
league would insure. We yield
nothing except our isolation,
which is already gone.
What about the burden which
the league imposes? We came,
late into the war, which nil now
recognize to have been fought to
preserve freedom and civiliza
tion, and have made sacriliees
much less in proportion to our
means lhan were made by the al
lies. We are called to help in
lifting up the suffering nations of
Kui'ope and Asia, which trust us
above all other nations. Shall
we prove .slackers in this great
work for freedom nnd humanity?
Could wo undertake a nobler
task than the building of the
remnant of Armenia into n thriv
ing, free state?
The nations of F.urope have
shown unbounded faith in us. In
proposing that we assume the
"'uardianship of Armenia, brit
it in proposes to place us squarely
across the road to India, which
was the cause of almost n cen
tury of feud with Russia. The
men w ho now sow in the people S
minds distrust of the nations
which arc thus ready to trust us
nnd which were lately our com
rades in nrms, nrc sowing what
may prove to be the seeds of fu
ture wars. Ihcv do not play a
noble part."

IHE BES1AVIAT0RS
Lieutenant Bruce Schuman, of
Portland, Tells of Foreign Flying
WAS IN FRANCE 2 YEARS
Tells of Air Service and the Big
Things Anticipated Over There
Lieut. liruee Schuui.m, with the
U. S. Flying Sipindrons in France
since 1917, was in the city Sun
day, n guest at the Mrs J.. W.
Sewcll home. Sehuinari says
that the Liberty motor, evolved
by the U. S. engine men, has any
thing beaten in Europe, but that
the flying machines of France,
F.ngland and Italy, have it over
the American machines. This he
says was the natural outcome of
the fact that the allied machines
were longer in Use ns battle
planes, and they had the exper
ience. He states that the young
men from 18 to 25 make the best
livers because of the dnredcviltry
of their natures. They lack the
caution that elder men have, and
arc always doing the unexpected
the thing that wins in combat
in the- air.
He slated that had the war
continued a few months longer
the American addition to Fjuro
pcan forces would in a month or
so more have .so augmented the
French and l'.nglish air service
that Germany would have been
literally riddled with bombs
from the bombing planes, nnd
thousand upon thousands of tons
of high explosives would have
been dropped on German cities.
An incident of the young
chaps flying in training was told
by Lieut. Schuman nt the Hills
boro Club Sunday:
"A young fellow of about 20
was one of our best flying men
in the training field. He went
up one day and was doing a spi
ral around a tall tower. It look
ed suicidal, and he was shooting
the machine contrary to orders.
The Captain made the remark
that he would go up and get on
the lad's tail and ground him.
The Captain went up and start
ed after the youngster, who
feinted and got above his super
ior oilieer and drove the Captain
dow n to the ground. The lad
was pulled from Hying for a
short time, but the joke was so
apparent that it made a hero out
of the youngster."
Lt. Schuman savs that the
American boys went wild when
the tirst I". S. built locomotive
came down the line on the rail-
vvnv. The big engine used the
air ami came into me siauou ai
high rate of speed, threw on the
lir and stopped at the station
i . .1 , C ll...
much to i no consternation oi mc
French. When its whistle sound
ed the Americans near by knew
it was one of our "hogs" and
tlu v went wild with enthusiasm.
"The American engineers
showed the French many things
over there in the way of big con-
struetiveness. sanitation, rail
way building, and construction
of camps and wharves, road
building, and bridge making and
handling of avenues for the bat
tle lines, and every young man
of France, with 'pep in him
wishes to come over here," said
Mr. Schuman.
Lt. Schuman is the son of Mr.
and Mrs. Fred Schuman, of
Portland, and he works in Oak
land. Cnl. He returns there in
a short time to resume the posi
tion lie held prior to enlistment.
Mr. nnd Mrs. Schuman Sr. ae
ompanied him on his Hillsboro
visit.
