-And James 11. Sttllmun, mot
rlpnlltan banker, will seek to
prove that his wife. In company
with Fred HcauvniH, guide of the

piness in those woods where hide

The hunch of fine haired hellralsers
headed by Hill Haywood, who have
been unrestricted In their devilment
for the past eight years, will now go
to Jail and stay there, without tiny
sentimental poppycock about "radical
thought molding Justice, atid temper
ing humanity's upward progress."
S FAR AS foreign relations are concerned President Harding's
message is merely a confirmation of Secretary Hughes' note.
The League of Nations, as far as this country is concerned, is defi
nitely scrapped. Peace with Germany is to hc'seeiired through reso
lution, with the understanding that if a situation similar to the situa
tion in 15)14 arises, the United States will take similar action.
J in t it is plainly indicated this action does not mean American iso
lation. President Harding definitely pledges the administration to
a suhseipicnt conference of nations, and the creation of an interna
tional association, for Ihe promotion of peace, hut without a military
alliance to enforce its provisions.
As previously pointed out in this column, this action, in brief, is
no less than the assumption of world leadership by the United States
Instead of the United States going to Kurope, Kurope must ioine to
the I'nitf il States. The enunciation of this policy marks the final
transition from an idealistic to a realistic, diplomacy.
For in thus definitely outlining the new American policy, the fact
of America's iiiheriei.t supremacy in the world today is, for the first
time oflieially recognized. The United Statesman take this indepen
dent stand, because without America nothing can be done. And the
validity of this position is graphically sustained, by I he immediate
acquiescence ol tho world powers.
According to today's reports from Washington, France promptly
recognizes the propriety of America s action, Japan proceeds to re
organize her foreign policy in conformity with it, ami tinat iit-it inn
is eager for co-operation and harmony.
What dot's this mean? It means that the United States, through
its economic and financial power, has the whip hand, and intends to
use it. It, tines not intend to use this power aggressively or selfishly,
but it does intend to use it, for the reconstruction of world affairs, in
conformity with American traditions and American ideals.
UiKiuestionably this action, fairly represents the present temper of
the American people- The apparent incorrigibility of Furope, the
inahiliiy of the League of Nations, either to prevent war, or even ex
ert a moral pressure toward a return to work and peace, has pretty
thoroughly convinced the American rank and file that for the pres
tnt at least, the United States better keep free fi i any entangle
ments born of the war. There is a wide spread disposition to avoid
complications until the world atmosphere has cleared, until the post
war confusion is less intense. I
This is the essence of the new Hughes-Harding statesmanship,- to
maintain American independence diplomatically, to go forward
slowly, am) to post pone the solution of each problem until it arises,
that is until circumstances rentier a solution imperative.
