We must have a league of nations by which every nation will help preserve the peace of the world without competitive navel building, or we must have incomparably the biggest navy in the world."
Secretary Daniel's testimony before the House Naval Committee is but one more addition to the overwhelming list of unanswerable arguments for ratification of the peace treaty. The United States must either join the league of nations-a co-operative, international police force-or the United States must spend millions for a huge army and navy.
America is bored and disgusted by the interminable rhetoric of her Senators, but she is not one whit less insistent that we should join the league and do our share toward establishing and maintaining world peace. The issue has been made clear: either the United States must ratify and the league begin to function or a great race for armaments is inevitable.
Our Senators were elected for one purpose: to represent and execute the wishes of their constituencies. That is the one thing they have consistently avoided doing. The country at large is more than impatient over their mud-slinging squables. Ratification is what America wants, and if the Senators have the slightest trace of political sagacity they will get together on reservations and pass the treaty without delay.
