The incident at Spa is symptomatic. The Allies by delays and lack of policy, have lost the offensive diplomatically for th moment. Hitherto they hae been able to jpiesent their decisions to Germany, I savins: "Sitrn here!" Now they are told by Gcimany she must have as- I surances of the Allies' irftentions to carry out engafrcments, and also are brought face to face wits the threat of a more dangerous German Gov ernment to deal with. The situation here has been drift ing since President Wilson denartorl. and in n direction inconsistent with his fourteen points and his league nations, Disunion and the inevitable' J compromises are affecting the whole program, as they have affecteoVMi- juriously the program of feeding (termany. The tioublc lies in lack of leader ship, and it is uncertain whether or not Sir. Wilson can furnish the lead eiship in the piactical details now to, be settled. Ho may have spent his foi ce in Betting: the league of na tions, which was his primary in tetest. Diplomatic I'och Needed An officer of one of the Allied gov ernments summed up the situation by mi mp;: "What is needed is a diplomatic Foch." Unitj of command and n capacity to make decisions nnd prevent such ti situation ns failuie to keep satis fied even friendly nations, like Bohemia, Rumania and Jugo-Slavia, ate sadly lucking. 'Ihe compromises being leached are not inspired by any consistent policies Thoie is a mixture of.tho old "bulance-of power" theory with the Wilsonian doctrine. It is idle to pretend that erecting a Rhenis-h republic is consistent with self-deteimination of peoples. It is only consistent with the theory that there will be future wars nnd 1 that a buffer state between France , Ullll uermany is necessury as, a protection to Fiance.
