EUROPE NECESSARY TO AMERICAN TRADE Conditions Have Changed Since Washington' Advice About "Entanging Alliances." Whether the League of Nations will ever InTlte America to send an army to Flume or somewhere else and help to eject Italians, or Jugo Slavs or Homebody else, this we know not. And, recognlilug that we don't know, lot us be mindful that there are many other kinks about the league whose twists are a little be wildering to us. Peace is supremely desirable. Any kind of a league that makes any kind of a stab at preserving peace In any kind of honorable way deserves our whole-hearted endorsement. But don't let us fool ourselves. Santa Clans will not come every day. We must not promise ourselves that everything we want will happen automatically after a few delegates have signed their names. Half the nations of Europe seem to want war rather than peace Just now. They are likely to nurse these bellicose enthusiasms for some time. If they are all members of the same league as ourselves, and i hey tell us to get In on a few of their wars because we are brother peace leaguers, we may find the final differ ent from the overture. But peace Is like every good thing; it is worth all the effort spent In the attainment. Hhetorlctans are constantly remind ing us of what George Washington said about entangling alliances. He urged this country to keep aloof from the problems with which European politics were interwoven. He said It many years ago, when few towns In America were as large as Burns. As a rule we associate Washington with Fourth of July celebration iili commencement exercises, and mellifluous oratory. We think of brass bands and streaming banners. At the mention of his name we visual ize marble statues perpetuating bis image, ami oil paintings preserving his features and the cut ofhls uni form. We rarely conceive him as being Intensely human, and abundantly en dowed with horse sense. We have hung so many frills upon him that In these encumbering vestments !i" !"5ras to voice pontifical utterance, So that his remark about eiilaiiglini; elllances has established a religion, very much as certain texts in the Epistles have established the tenets of conflicting denominations. Washington was no hlerarch. H was a supremely practical American, uud took things as he found thern. A voyag to Europe took many weeks, and his country was In no way de pendent on foreign trade. European contemporary history was a series of dynastic wars, and America had noth ing to gain and everything to lose by lose association with the Old World. Washington's precepts were uttered for the guidance of the newly born republic, Just as the Mosaic Law ap plied to Israel of the Old Covenant. Today these conditions are revers ed. Europe Is distant only a five days trip. European wars today are cat Avnaatte; they are largely con- ernsd with arguments between class es laborers, artificers, bourgeoisie, i esasnta. If Europe becomes a dangerous place for Americaus it becomes a dau- sroaa place for American goods raw materials and manufactures.

The Flow of Meat Two-thirds of the live stock in the United States has to be raised in the West One-half of the consumers of meat live in the East. In other words, most of the live stock is one or two thousand miles distant from most of the people who need it in the form of food. Fifty years ago, when live stock was raised close to every consuming cen ter, the country butcher could handle the job after a fashion. But the job got too big. Now millions of animals have to be moved hundreds of miles to millions of people. Somewhere on the way they have to be turned into meat. The packers solved the problem. They set up plants where the "live haul" and the "meat haul" were in the right balance. They built up distributing systems refrigerator cars, refrigerating plants, branch houses. They saved time, money and meat everywhere. The stockraiser bene fited in better markets and higher prices; the consumer, in better meat and lower prices. As the country prew, the packers h?.d to grow, or break down.
