What More Does Lodge Want?
The New York Tribune has consistently opposed
' the ratification of the League of Nations covenant
without reservations, but Senator Lodge's abrupt
termination of compromise negotiations at the
command of the irreconcilable opponents of the
treaty la too much for even the party loyalty of
this staunch republican paper.
Discussing the senator' reaaoning as "A Lame
Explanation," the , Tribune says that the contro
versey haa been reduced "to two points and these
' not of major consequence." Both sides, aays the
Tribune, have agreed that the United State shall
not submit to the league any question whlcb de
pend on or relates to Its policy known a the
Monroe Doctrine. 'Then why, asks the Tribune,
hould it be sought to express this Idea a third
lira by stating that "the doctrine is to be In
terpreted by the United State alone?"
' As to Article X, the Taft reservation declare
that the United States accept no obligation to
guarantee any territorial boundaries unless in the
particular case congress shall recognize the obli
gation. , But Senator Lodge would asaert that the
United States accepts no Obligation except that this
nation will respect the-territorial Integrity of other
nations.
Then If we join the league under the Lodge pro
gram of membership we solemnly come before
the world to announce that the United Statea will
never, never -steal' land from small or great coun
tries, never exercise overlordshlp and have domin
ion over them. Now beautiful Is altruism! The
world league was Instituted to bind the United
States against brigandage and land-lust. Earth's
peace Is thus guaranteed; let the secretariat ring
the Geneva bell for all members Including Uncle
Sam to assemble.
The Tribune thus concludes Its lament over : strength.
Senator Lodge: .
Benator Lodge has scarcely as good a right
" to be stubborn In behalf of his language as
bas Senator. Hitchcock In favor of his. Sena
tor Hitchcock concedes the reserva
i tlon and .practically accepts the contents of
those written by a majority of the senate. In
view of this he may well be allowed the priv
ilege of modifying the phraseology.
A majority of republican senators have voted
for the ratification of the treaty They have
strenuously denied maneuvering to defeat It.
Tktus it Is difficult to understand on what basis
of reason they can refuse to close the debate
by accepting the offer which has been made.
Their party will have a serious tanH, In the
campaign If It is compelled to appear before
the public as the treaty killer or even es part

World Sickness
Nations us well as Individuals suffer from bodily
and spiritual illness. And today the world is sick
in soul and body. War wasted the strength of
national organlnms and In the resultant decrepi
tude the old Infirmities of the spirit have been
reinforced by the fantastic imaginings that haunt
a man tortured by fever.
' One school of though denies the reality of any
sickness. Another cannot see any but bodily ill
ness, and unless organic derangement is discovered
the patient Is told to cure himself, But the true
psychologist knows that not only Is all abnormality
a real evil but that body and soul are so inter
twined by the threads of life that weakness of one
saps the vital powers of the other. All healera
agree In trying, each In his own way, to make man
whole.
It Is a tribute to the all-lncluslveness of the
teachings of Jesus that all who minister to mind
or body come back more and more to the funda
mental doctrine of the Great Physician. "Jesus
Christ maketh thee whole," said Peter to the
palsied Aeneas. At the touch of the Master, evil
spirits and bodily weakness loose their hold on
energies bound in serfdom. Thus far the denial
of evil la Justified; soundness of mind and body
are normal; wholeness of spirit and body are man's
birthright.
All manner of evil besets men and natlona Says
former Senator Lewis of ' Americanism of today:
"The citizen is In revolt at evils that do not exist.
He is in terror of fiends that cannot arise." But
these fiends and terrors are doing more destruc
tion than armies or pestilence. Fear, discontent,
envy, worry, hate are as deadly as poisons carried
Into the body by parasites.
Enraged or blinded by imaginary Ills,, or exist
ing disorders magnified by morbid thinking, men
seek to overturn institutions and set up Impossible
substitutes for the injustice, which they would de
stroy. Instead of living by the golden rule, men
resort to the black magic of sovletlsm, radical so
cialism;' books are filled with prohibitions and
penalties to make men good. Simple righteousness
Is obscured in a base of glittering theories or hlgh-
sounding dogmas.
"Thy faith hath made thee whole." Man has
In his nature the remedy for his mortal sickness.
Beneath all the fret and ferment of contending
political parties and' armies of industry is the
source of wholeness and sanity, ready to be tapped.
Although like sick children the nation pry out
In pain and do not know how to explain their ail
ments or to call on the Oreat Physician, under
one name or another all men acknowledge that
there Is a Oreat Physician, a source of healing and
To Matthew Arnold it is "a power not
ourselves that makes for righteousness;" to
Herbert Spencer It Is "an infinite and eternal ener
gy from which all things proceed;" to the
Athenians of St. Paul's day, and to many agnostics
since, "the Unknown God;" but to Paul it is the
Lord of heaven and earth, in whom "we live, move
and have our being."

THE HOLLAND LETTER.
Whatever the politicians may think of the atti
tude of the New York World in promising ita earn
est support of the nomination of Mr. Hoover for
President many of the business men of New York
are inclined to the view, that the proposed nomina
tion of Hoover reflects the widely prevailing hope
of business men. That the nomination for Presi
dent and the election of President' and congress
next fall will mean more for the business interests
of the United States than any other previous elec
tion has meant.
For a year or more those who have been privileg
ed to talk with business men have learned that they
are in agreement respecting the infusion of what
may be called business politics, in the best mean
ing of that term, into the campaign of this year.
It is assumed therefore that the New York World
has recognized this wide-spread feeling and hope,
and has taken advantage of it to Indicate Mr.
Hoover as. In its opinion, pre-eminently qualified
for service as a business President and certain to
receive the support of a great body of business
men throughout the United States provided the
platform represents.the vlaws of business.

NEW YORK, Feb. 4 Receipt of a
cable message from Lord Lonsdale,
president of the British board of box
ing control in which he declared that
the English board favors American
views advocating proportionate voting
power in the international boxing
union, was announced here tonight by
Major Anthony Drexel Biddle. chair
man of the army, navy and civilian
board of boxing control. The Ameri
can board recently cabled its refusal
to send representatives to the meeting
of the international union in Paris
February 5. because each country rep
resented was to have equal voting
power regardless of its boxing promi
nence. The French board of boxing control
has suggested, Lord Lonsdale's mes
sage stated, that France, England and
the LTnited States be given 10 votes
each with one or two each for remain
ing members of the union according
to their relative importance.
In commenting on the proposal-
Major Biddle declared that "while It
Is a concession to the protest of this
board as contained In our cable and
is satisfactory insofar as England and
the United States are concerned, if
other nations are to be awarded
voting power proportionate to their
Importance, then France is not entl
t!ed to the number of votes given to
England or America."
He added that an Anglo-American
alliance was favored by the British
board in the event of the French as
sociation "persisting in sctlng in a
dictatorial spirit entirely unwarranted
by the relative importance of boxing
in France as compared with other
countries."
