WHY ANOTHER- CONFERENCE
' - , - -r
Those wbo are asking wny an
other conference- should, be the!d
at The Hague so soon after: the
cne which achieved but mediocre
rerultt at Genoa will find the an
swer in an address delivered by
Lloyd George to the representa
tives of the British and American
press. Deferring to the attitude
which the rest of Europe should
sssume toward Russia and Ger
many, he said:
"Anybody who imagines
that by any combination yon
can permanently keep down
these two great peoples, rep
resenting two-thirds of the
people of -Europe, must either
be blind or blinkered. It is
an impossibility. It is folly.
It is Insanity."
Then came bis solemn warning
as to "what would be absolutely
inevitable when the hunger of
Russia is equipped by the anger
of Germany."
In. the opinion of the British
premier conference - must follow
conference until a basis of com
mon understanding can be reach
ed that will include all the peo
ples of Europe.' Unless peaceful
solutions can be found, another
war is inevitable. In case of such
a conflict a united Russia . and

Germany, with two-thirds the
population of Europe, would
threaten the annihilation ot the
other nations, unless both Great
Pritain and the United States
should come to the rescue.
Lloyd George tery truly sld.
"For the moment we belong to the
dominant group which has won
the great war and we are domi
nant and triumphant. But these
things do not last forever." Then
came the warning against any at
tempt to enforce a military policy,
to apply the law of force. It is
a "warning that should cause even
the most embittered enemies of
the central powers to reflect. The
following words are not those of
a politician or of an opportunist,
but ot a far-seeing statesman:
"If our victory degenerates into
oppression, it it is tinctured and
tainted with selfish Interests, It
feeling arises in the consciences
of mankind that we have abused
the triumph that God placed in
our hands, vengeance will inevi
tably follow, as it followed in the
wake of the act which outraged
the moral sense of the world on
the part of Germany. We must
be just, we must be fair, we must
be equitable, we must show re
straint in the hour of our tri
umph. . Otherwise Europe will
again- be a welter of blood within
the lifetime of even men like my
self, whose hair is gray, even if
we live only to the ordinary span
of human life, and those who are
younger among us will surely see
t."
None can honestly dispute the
assertion of Lloyd George that.
f the old policy of a balance of
power is re-o;tablished in Europe,
the inevitable result will be an
other world war. If Rassa and
uermany are untea n one camp
and the other European countres
in another the clash of these op
posing forces will so shake the
foundations of our present civili
sation that the whole edifice may
collapse. The whirlpool caused
by the sinking of Europe would
be very likely to draw our own
country into the vortex.
We are apparently back to the
piace we were wnen the repre
sentatives of the allied nations
met at Paris during the armis
tice. It is evident that the na
tions of the world must forget
their animosities and unite for
the destruction of war or war will
surely destroy them. Unless some
tribunal can be constituted where
IhterYaclal and international dif
ference can be settled by arbitra
Jion and compromise, our civili
sation is doomed to disappear in
what Lloyd George terms "a wel
ter of blood."

CREPE PAPER MILLINERY
"By FLORENCE WINE
A "picture" hat to match your

start offthe summer days. It
the "summeriest" outfit you
r could possibly wear. Made ot
crepe paper and trimmed In flow
' era of satin ribbon or paper in a
contrasting color, the hat will be
I right at home at a garden party
or at any of the sumer "doings"
which call for an organdy dress.
' o make the hat yon need one
'fold of the "crepe paper, two No.
15 wires, which are extra heavy,
Tone spool of fine tie wire and one
riece of cardboard.

-Now that you have all tfcesa
materials, together, left begin
JFirstJoin the two. wires to make

"how -large you want the brim ot

circle flat on the paper and marke

Cut the top circle for the brim

Inch for turning." s Put paste on
the covered wire and place the
top circle on it, making the edge

Now your hat Is finished except
for adding the trimming. Yotj

picture hat the best trimming is
flowers. You may buy these, or
make them yourself out of scraps
of satin or some crepe paper.
If you wish your hat to last all
through the summer, give it
light coating of liquid varnish
such as chek or crystaline. You

The day was hot and Wenona
sat down to rest neaf a grave i
cne corner of the cemetery, away
lrom the crowd for a 'while. She
happened to look over and saw a
girl of about her own age sitting
there with chin in her hands, smil
ing at her. Wenona felt this was
no occasion for smiling. She toon
out a handkerchief and wiped her
eyes.
The girl was all sympathy
"Oh," she said, "I hope I'm not
bothering you? Did you" lose
some one in the war, too? A bro
ther, maybe?"
Wenona gulped and nodded,

"Humph," her grandmother
would say. "I don't" think It's
tenderheartedness. She know
very well how ? pretty she , look'

When Memorial day came, We
nona was in her element. She was
going to be in a deeoratlve float
that was to be part ot a parade
to the cemetery. She was dressed
in a new summer dress and her
hair had never been curled so piti
fully before. : ' ' J
. When the float reached , the
cemetery, the girls in their gay
dresses climbed out and began d's-
tributlng their baskets' of flowers
over the graves. More than one
person smiled tenderly to see the
wishing It were so, and feeling
dramatic. ...
"I s'pose he wai killed at the
front," said the girl. And when
Wenona nodded again, she went
an, "I lost a brother, too. But

A flush of shame made Weno

her flowers and hid her head In

of "the sprinkling can."

'an economic vacuum." Germany
is industrially disorganized. But
the two countries po$se&$ the pop
ulation and the natural resources
necessary to regain their former
power. Their restoration may be
delayed, but it cannot be prevent
ed. If isolated from the rest of
Europe their reorganization will
be certain to proceed along a mil
itary basis. Russia, with Cerman
aid, will provide the arms and
otlrer military equipment for
both.' A new period of rivalry In
armaments will beg:n. And the
end will be the welter of blood.
On the other'band1, Russia must
not expect aid from other coun
tries even from Germany until
her government is prepared to
deal honestly and honorably with
other peoples. Until the rights
of private property are recognized
she will not be able to secure cap
ital from the outside, and she
has wasted what she once pos
sessed. Lloyd Georg still hopes
that, during the interval between
Genoa and The Hague the soviet
government will recognize that it
cannot secure recognition and
economic aid until it abandons
the predatory policies it now es
pouses. He also hopes that
France, Belgium and the other
European countries will come to
realize that all must meet about
the conference table as equals
that there must be no victors and
no vanquished; that Russia and
Germany are strongly enough
united to protect themselves
against forceful aggression.
Slowly but irresistibly the peo
ples of the world are moving
along the path that leads to a
world government, to a confeder
ation of man that will aboll3h war
and replace force with justice.
Versailles. Washington, Genoa
and The Hague represents a
steady, measured progress of gov
ernments and peoples toward a
world federation. If we were to
turn back now we would be en
gulfed in the welter of blood that
follows like a tidal wave fast on
o ir trail. That is why the con
ference at The Hague must be
held and why other confereaea
must follow, until the ultimate
goal of universal peace is finally
attained. And it must be a peace
based on mutual understandings,
perpetuated by the observance of
just laws and equitable agree
ments, enforced by rules admin
istered in the spirit of the Golden
Rule, in both its negative form
as given by Confucius and its posi
tive form as proclaimed by the
lowly Xatarene." There cannot be
too" many conferences looking to
the making of such a peace with
justice. ' '" -
