Night Editor-KENNETHC. KELLAR
T ODAY'S E LE T ION
Today Greats Britian will decide
whether its government for the com-
ing months is to be Conservative,
Liberal, or Labor--or a combination
of two of them. A campaign which has1
seldom been surpassed in intensity is
at a close and the British are now
settling down after a period of
verbal and physical violence which at
times has become disgraceful.
A sure indication of the universal
interest in English politics is found
in the tactics of various political
manauverers. Several meetings night
before last were interrupted by violent
disturbances, necessitating the calling
of the police in some instances. At a
meeting hall in Battersea a blow
which was aimed at a Conservative
candidate, Visecunt Curzon, failed to
strike its mark but felled the nearest
person, rendering him unconscious.
Americans are often accused of pug-
nacity in local elections, but it is sel-
dom that a national campaign awakens
such widespread and vigorous action
on the part of the whole people. Ex-
cept for reading or hearing the con-
tinual and boresome utterances of
the various candidates the average
American is little effected by the
campaign for the highest office in the
land.
On the very eve of the elections in
England, however, an issue has arisen
which may change the whole trend of
the contest. Although the treaty with
Soviet Russia was not the cause of
the downfall of the Labor ministry
it has been the principal issue in
the campaign. The Labor leaders have
been as persistent in upholding the
treaty as have the Conservatives and
Liberals in attacking it as an organ
designed to bring Great Britain under
the domination of the Reds. This latter
contention seems to be borne out by
the publishing of by the British for-
eign office of a letter, alleged to have
been signed by Gregory Zinovieff,
president of the execive 'of the
Third Communist Internationale,
which urged British subjects to work
for the overthrow of existing institu-
tions and for the subversion of the
arred forces as a means to that end.
Russian officials have denounced the
letter as a forgery, and Ramsay Mac-
Donald refuses to take any responsi-
bility.
This latest development is signif-
cant, nevertheless. Whether or not it
be true, the letter's publication will
awaken in the hearts of the English a
genuine fear of the treaty which is
bound to bring on further inter-
course with the Soviet government.
The Labor party has declared its in-.
tention of standing or falling on the
policy. Today's voting will either
justify or denounce this stand.

THE END OF WAR
The 1500 or more people who listen-
ed to Dr. Irving Fisher expound on
the League of Nations Monday night
were decidedly impressed. His sincer-
ity of address, his clearcut purpose,
and his powers of oratory served suc-
cessfully to veil some little incon-
sistencies of argument. He made a
great case for THE League of Na-
tions; there were few who were not
convinced of the ultimate destiny of
the United States as an influential
member of that body.
At times it appeared that enthus-
iasm for his subject somewhat carried
him off his feet, that his own faith
,in the success of the body made him
forget some of the failures, some of
the past struggles of the Council.
There are few of the League's -most
ardent supporters who. do not admit
of its defects, of its many mistakes
while it is. growing. Dr."Fisher'recog-
nizes these as well as anyone, but he
chose to emphasize the favorable as-
pects of the organization's work.
There be some who will take issue
with the speaker concerning the at-
titude of Theodore Roosevelt toward
the League. Dr. Fisher is assured
that the great American of the age
was in accord with Taft in a support
of a league similar to that finally .de-
veloped under the leadership of Wil-
son. Others will deny this, and insist
that Roosevelt would have opposed
such a spirit of internationalism. No
matter what may be the real truth of
the matter, it is of little importance.
Any who would truly represent Roose-
velt must admit that he was anxious
for some sort of plan for world
peace. Whether or not he would have
approved of the League is irrelevant
in a consideration of the League as
an instrument to abolish wars.
The part of the address most worthy
of discussion is that in, which he in-
sisted that the Leagu'e should no
longer be 'considered a partisan issue.
The antagonism which has developed
as the result of attaching the League
to our war-time president and consld-
ering it as inseparable from the Dem-
ocratic party has made more enemies
for the association of nations than
any one thing. The League, as Dr.
Fisher says, has gone beyond that
point. It is an issue of universal in-
terest, of national importance. It
should no longer.be considered as the
project of any one person or party,
but as a league of nations which has
already proved that it is traveling the
right track toward world amity. The!
United States may or may not have
been wise in remaining out until
now, but this fact should not cloud
the issue as to whether we have a
definite responsibility there.
as to just why the people in overalls
are crawling around on the Library
steps, we give the following data:
Man number One, watched for ten
minutes, occupied himself by making

ANTI-SOMETHING
To the Editor:
I am an enemy to the organized
I force which takes as its slogan "the
little red schoolhouse." Mr. Knight
claims the amendment is not anti-
anything. If a child is forced to at-
tend the public school five days in the
week how can he attend the parochial
school five days in the week? He can't.
Therefore the amendment is anti-
parochial school. What are parochial
schools? They are schools in -which
certain religious and moral training
is considered more important than
anything else in life. "What doth it
profit a man if he gain the whole
world and suffer the loss of his own
soul?"
However, scholastic standing is not
neglected in theewleast. Mr. Knight
Intimated that real American training
takes place only in the public schools.
I do not think he is a narrow-minded
bigot, to use his own words, but I do
think there are some things about
which he could obtain some inforna -
tion. Mr. Knight speaks of it some-

a quarrel I hope, but how can he deny
