A CHANCE FOR COOPERATION
From an American point of view the
most important single aspect of the
address of Austen Chamberlain, Brit.
ish secretary for foreign affairs, be-
fore the council of the League of Na-
tions at Geneva, formally rejecting for
the British empire the famous League
protocol of disarmament and arbitra-
tion, was his insistence that the certain
failure of the United States to adhere
to such a pact would ruin definitely
its effectiveness in preserving the
peace of the world.
Ile argued that it would be a great
mistake "to add to the liabilities al-
ready incurred without talking inte
account the weakening of the League
through the non adhesion of some
Powers." While he admitted the
League success, "though the United
States remains in friendly aloofness,"
lie eniphasized throughout the futility
of the protocol provisions for enforc-
ing sanctions when powerful economic
coommunities exist outside the League.
In reply to this, M. Briand, represent.
ing France, declared that he was con-
vinced that the absence of the United
States from the League would not be
permanent because America would be
influenced favorably by the high
ideals of the League and eventually
join it through a desire to protect her
reasonable interests.
Such expressions of opinion are
only natural. Since the protocol first
came into being it has been clear that
the British empire would not accept
it without reservations, especially
after the victory of the Conservatives
in England. France's attitude has
been almost equally in the affirmative,
that nation feeling that the failure off
the United States actively to support
the pact would not be a serious ob.
stacle to its success. France and Great
Britain seem to find it difficult to
agree.
Mr. Chamberlain's utterances should
give great impetus to President Cool-I
idge's proposed disarmament confer.
ence. There can be no room for
doubt: that the protocol is dead. The
British empire finds it impossible even1
to amend, and the League will hardly
go any further. It is only logical to
suppose that Great Britain is sincere
in her wish for an international con-
ference on limitation of armaments
which shall include the United States.
Tiere again France is in the opposi-
tion, but there is an even possibility
that she will at least take a passive
part.
Such is the situation. The protocol,
if it has done nothing else, has set thef
stage for another Washington confer-
once. Though rejected, it standsI

gios, she recently played in Mr.
Mainer's interpretation class, care-
fully and with a surprising interpre-
tive skill. As her final work she has
selected the thundering MacDowel
Concert Etude, a highly theatric and
most grateful work.
Doubtless because Miss Stockwell
appears in public recital so infre-
quently, you will be astonished at her
assurance and very excellent tech-
nical facilty. She is really a highly
finished pianist with an unusual con-
, mand of grandoise effects.
FINALLY )IISS BONSTELLE
Even if the weather forgot itself
and became too awful, the house was
sold out even to the Whitney's impos-
sible boxes for "The Goose Hangs
High," and dozens-amke it hundreds
-were turned away. Not since "The
Emperor Jones" three years ago has
the theatre been so full--and at a
matinee in addition. The entire per-
formance, literally, was a frank suc-
cess, and the audience from its re-
sponsiveness seemed to amuse itself
immensely.
More importantly, the surrounding
atmosphere was exact and correct-
to the infinite credit of the local com-
mittee; there were curtain-calls,
speeches and flowers, the audience
wept and Mrs. Mansfield, even dis-
counting personal prejudices, was
superb. The afternoon was delight-
ful, grandly theatric: it is of such
stuff that the romance of the stage is
made.
In the evening Miss Bonstelle lec-
tured before the American Association
of University Women, and ;gave as an
adroit a speech as one might ever
hear. Financially and artistically, the
entire experiment was partly satisfy-
ing. Obviously, arrangements are still
incomplete, but Miss Bonstelle is too
clever a business-woman: the Bon-
stelle company will appear in Ann
Arbor again!
