Congress Will Not Allow
United States to Enter
Old League of Nations
BY COL. WINFIELD JONES
WASHINGTON. Feb. 9.—(Special
Correspondence).— From interviews
with members of house and senate
on the prospects of congressional
legislation during this new year it
is learned that the following will
be the big outstanding features of
such legislation, which will be of
course linked closely with the Hard
ing administration:
To take up first the international
situation as far as it concerns the
United States it may be stated that
congress will not, under any circum
stances, allow the United States to
enter the League of Nations. This
is now well understood In Washing
ton. In lieu of that there will be in
the first and special session of the
next congress, which will be called
by Mr. Harding next month, consider
able discussiom about the the so
called "Association of Nations,”
which also is well understoood in the
national capital to be only a new
name for the defunct League of Na
tions now about ready to expire
at Geneva. This “association,” too,
if it ever is seriously considered in
the senate, will be thrown into the
discard. Along with rejection and
probably following that rejection the
disarmament discussion will be re
newed with redoubled vigor. The
great powers, however, are so jeal
ous, Great Britain can never agree
to surrender control of the oceans
of the world and never will until the
United States outbuilds her in naval
uuuBii ucuuu, me Japanese are so sus
picious and greedy—that the dis
armament scheme will go the way of
the League of Nations and the “As
sociation of Nations.” So much for
the foreign situation as it concerns
the United States in 1921.
Domestic problems are the things
that come nearer to the heart of the
average congressmen, and the same
problems are certainly the most com
plex and most momentous that have
confronted the United States since
the Civil war. The principal thing
right now before this session of
congress is the tariff, in the form
of an emergency bill, and after that
the taxation problem. In 1873 and
1S93 panics ran their course in this
country. While the present indus
trial situation does not approach the
proportions of a panic it is now well
recognized that there is a profound
and dangerous depression through
out the country. This is caused prin
cipally because more than' 2,500,000
persons are out of employment, and
by the effort of all classes of busi
ness men to quickly liquidiate their
stocks, bought in wartimes and con
tracted for at war prices. Many fail
ures are undoubtedly looming in the
near future unless the federal re
serve banking system rushes to the
aid of all the overloaded banks in the
country. A revival of bad business
conditions is predicted within the
next six months, but the depression
may last longer and get worse if un
employment increases. One feature
of the situation is caused by the
slump in prices of farm products, but
this was to be expected as a result of
general liquidation.
It will be the job of congress, by
wise and far-seeing financial and
tariff legislation, to overcome the de
pression in so far as legislation can
accomplish it. Even now congress
is working hard with the emergency
tariff bill to ease the situation. The
next congress, therefore, will first
bend all its energies toward solving
the fiscal and tariff nroblems, so as
to aid the population to quickly re
cover from the existing depression.
It is this which will cause Mr. Hard
ing soon after his inauguration to
call the special session of the new
congress.
Present conditions in this country
are only repeating history. Aft<jr
the Civil war practically the identi
cal conditions prevailed as exist at
this time. After the war with Spain
the same conditions existed though
the situation was not as difficult as
after the end of the Civil war. His
torians are fond of telling this gener
ation of Americans of the terrible
business conditions that existed after
the Revolution of 177'!. After all
nf these wars however, when the
country overcame the result.? o£ the
disturbance, long periods of prosper
ity followed. As soon as the country
recovers fro:n the staggering blows
caused by the World war similar con
ditions of great prosper5ty will pre
vail.
Congressional economists say that
the present situation was to have
been expected, and as the disturbance
caused in the life of the nation was
severe and profound, because of the
magnitude of the participation of the
United States in the World war, so
will the reaction when prosperity
comes be greater than ever before.
There is no cause for alarm, and it
is the belief of senators and repre
sentatives that when the country be
gins to get back to normal there will
ensue a long era of good times that
will be the best ever experienced in
the United States.

ver to be worn on a man's belt, aimed
forward and fired with a strap as a
wearer complies with an order to lift
his hands.
