Conniving for power- dreaming as Alexander drearn- tod and later the kaiser, the French dictitor-emperor professed his belief in the orderly settlement of dis putes among the nations and expressed his c o n a tion that war only led to more wars. Possessed of a tremendous ego, he viewed himself as the great managing genius capable of making a united and peaceful Europe on a permanent basis. “ I could have done it in 20 years,” he ruminated in exile at S t Helena. His pausings recorded this remarkable statement: War is an anachronism. Sometimes victories will be won without cannot qr bayonets.” If Bonaparte were alive * today and safely in exile, it would be-interesting to hear his comment on the League of Nations now operating, not only »with almost the United support of Europe, but representing the rest of the world excepting Busftia, Turkey and the United States, with one or two other less important countries temporarily absent from the conference table. He would perhaps be as tonished at the discussion of problems involving the Occident and the orient and he would certainly be impressed with the settlement only a few days ago of the dispute between France and Germany over the policing and plebiscite plans in the Sarre basin. With a decade of brilliant victories in which he figured as the despot of Europe threatening con quest of the whole world, he saw the tragedy and f a i l l e of civilization ip hjs own brief careey. Even in his last campaigns and flushed With success when it seemed that ndne of |he armies of Europe could stop his legions, he cunningly suggested his aver sions to war and posed as a man of peace. Perhaps his own inevitable and a ffe c te d his philosophy or perhaps in the f e t r years of lovely exile he really had a prophetic glimpse of future centuries when victories would be won without war and peace would give opportunity for progress such as civilisation, has never experienced.

Th« surprising thing is that neither he nor his gifted secretary of the treasury have been willing to reduce taxes fast enough.
