...France will be well represented on the Commission she has really got what she has been working for and need not fear to lose the fruits of victory. England has had her way as regards the admission of the Germans to the discussion. Altogether a better compromise could hardly be imagined and there is now little fear of a split between the two principals on the Allied side...

From a point of view other than yours, California has done a thing which will go far to prevent the United States from becoming embroiled in the dangerous foreign tangle which you fear. It has called the nation's attention to a situation which cannot be allowed to continue if we are to remain at peace with Japan. The very fact, which you cite, that the California anti-Japanese legislation violates our present treaty with Japan and conflicts with the Fourteenth Amendment is evidence that the problem, is a vital one and must be solved by the Federal Government.

There is the fact, too, of the long wall, of the postponement of any announcement of decisions until after the elections, for fear that the interests of the Democratic party might be injured.

They would instinctively reject such a system because so far in history it has never succeeded in administering justice satisfactorily; and it never will. Law that people fear and hate is worthless so far as justice is concerned.

Reprisals have no place even in martial...

That the Yale eleven as it played last Saturday was a much stronger organization than has represented the Elis so far this season seems established by the remarkable showing it made against the husky West Virginia Mountaineers. The undergraduates who had begun to fear that "Tad" Jones would not live up to their expectations, were partly consoled for the defeat at the hands of Boston College and are now hoping that their eleven will repeat its performance of 1916 when, after a mid-season defeat at the hands of Brown, it turned around and beat both Harvard and Princeton...
