LET US HAVE PEACE.
The most vitally important need
thal confronts this county today
is ratification of the pence treaty
That done, the solution of our
lot her great problems would be ma
terially hastened, since all of them
are very largely and in a direct
way related to and contingent up
on that development.
And every day and every hour
the senate wastes in “debate”
over the cpiestion makes matters
worse.
The w orld, commercially, econo
mically, temperamentally, is hang
ing in a state of sinpctt.se and
growing agitation and unrest
pending the restoration of peace
conditions, and those conditions
are in a very material measure de
pendent upon the ratification of
the peace treaty by Ihe senate of
tin United States.
Still time is permitted 1o drag
on week after week with nothing
but the rehearsing of stale argu
ments an hitter personalities com
ing from the body which must act
before peace can become effective.
The ratification of tin* peace
treaty in one form or another—
is the most importnat obligation
before the country today.
“The business of making peace,
says The Springfield (Mass.) Re
publican, “ has already been too
long prot raded, and while it drags
on tiie state of the world steadily
grows w orse I”
Not anew 1 bought, not anew
idea, not anew argument, either
for or against the treaty or the
league of nations lias been brought
to light throughout all of 1 lie pro
tracted mouthing and spouting
over it since it has been before the
senate.
All that has been said through
bellowing was said while the peace
out this acrimonious senatorial
treaty was still in the making at
Versailles, and before it was regu
larly and officially before the sen
ate for “debate.' ’
11 it doubtful if a single vote in
the senate has been changed, one
way or another, by all of this har
anguing !
The whole world is disorganiz
ed; commerce is stagnated; anar
d \ is running rampant in some
countries; unrest is at fever heat
everywhere. The situation is dan
gerous !
Our own country is passing
through the most critcal industrial
and economic situation in its his

tory. And it can be easily dealt
with once the country and the
world art restored to a peace bas
is; but it is idle to expect any ma
terial progress toward a restora
tion of tranquility until then.
President Wilson stated the sit
uation when he said in his recent
address before congress:
“There can he no peace prices
as long as our whole financial and
economical system is on a war
basis.”
So let us have peaee! Let us
have treaty ratification by the sen
ate —which, and which alone, can
bring peace!
If the treaty cannot he ratified
without reservations—which now
seems to he the case —then make
the reservations!
Almost anything in Ihe way of a
