What the American People
Think of a League of Nations
"ilad the League been in evidence in 19I. huropc would have escaped the bloodiest
1 all wars," declares the Birmingham .-lye-Herald. While the majority of the newspapers of
America regard the experiment of a League of Nations as tremendously worth trying, some
are as dubious as the New York Sun, which sas: "If the present project means the elimination
of the Monroe Doctrine; it it means the restriction of our independence; if it means we arc
tying our hands as concerns the independent action ol a Irce people and a free nation; if it
means that the L'nitcd States shall carry the load and pa in large measure the bills of main
taining peace in all the little countries of Kurope and throughout the world- the little tribal
nations and the big ivations as well; if it means the hampering of this nation in its economic
relations to and with the other nations of the world, is it good enough fo rthis free people, this
free nation is it the thing we want?" Read TIIH LITKRARY DIGKST this week for
public opinion on the League of Nations.
