on Our JQiumw
By EX-PRESIDENT WM. H. TAFT.
Of course we cannot hope to make
the great changes such as the League
of Nations will bring about without
opposition. Fortunately, the war has
taught us the great advantages of In
ternational co-operation. It was only
by good team work that the free liberty-loving
nations were able to whip
Germany. '
The treaty which the United States
Senate Is debating obligates the mem
bers of the proposed League to protect
one another against attack from ene
mies outside their own boundaries
bent upon conquest. Although this
agreement (Article X of the Covenant)
Is vital to any arrangement which
seeks to prevent war. It has been at
tacked on the ground that It would
draw the Ulted States into wars in
various parts of the world and force
us to send our boys to tight In quar
rels which did not foncvn us. .
We should remember, however, that
the main purpose of- Article . X Is
to frighten nations tempted to wars of
conquest from yielding to the tempta
tion, , by the certainty that they will
be crushed If they begin such a war by
a universal boycott .and a union of
forces of the world against tliem. If a
big war breaks out again, the United
States will be forced to. take part in
It whether we have a League uf Na
tions or not. We tried hard enough
to keep out of the war with Germany
but found we couldn't.
A little war contrary to the League
rules could be handled by the powers
close at hand. Certainly It would not
! be necessary to send American troops
te suppress an uprising in (he Bal
kans when prompt acllon by the armies
of Italy or some other nearby power
ful nation could suppress the fracas
before American troops could even
get iar"l- '
