Dramatieally this is true, but the surprising thing is so few people M'ein eapable of discriminating betveen what is poor theatrically and what is not. poor, politically. Now if the identical elements of the present situation had been differently arranged, if the palaver had culm) first, the Hughes naval program and I'aoific agreement last, (here would be wild enthusiasm today over the performance, and some perfectly sane observers would be comparing December, 1921, with the date of the Magna Charta and the Sermon on the Mount. For as a matter of fact, a tremendous epoch making thing has been clone. Tho first real step toward world disarmament, in human his tory, has actually been taken. There has been talk before, but only talk. Here we have the world powers agreeing fo throw away bat tleships worth a billion and declare a naval holiday, which will save tho people of the nations concerned, at least eight or ten billion more. It isn't the money so, much, stupendous as the sum really is. It's the spirit behind the action. For in spite of the superficial differ ences, behind. everything is a genuine will for peace, a universal de sire to stop this militant madness and get back to the ways of sanity again. This loesn! lncnn the milhiimim of course it iloesn 'I. mean the lend of all war, but it docs mean the first tangible constructive move ment, toward peace on earth, good will to man, since Adam sallied forth from Eden. In other words, after two thousand years, the march .toward world pence has actually begun. The march may bo a long and wearisome one, it mav at times be a retreat, but it lias started. There is the big fact, the truly tremendous fact, that, today lies solidly behind tho AVashiuglon conference. Few people appear to realize it. A number of the auditors have left the hall and other are snoring in their seals. The trouble has not been with the statesmen at Washington, how ever, but with the stage managers. They have been guilty of the unpardonable drama! ie sin, a sin necessitated no doubt by political circumstances, of putting tho llig Scene first.
