Abstract

Editorial Paragraphs

The article presents information about various political developments around the world. Governor Nathan L. Miller of New York continues to establish his reputation for originality, this time by appointing two Democrats to the new Transit Commission of three which is to deal with the pending transit problems of the metropolis. Of course if he were playing the game by custom and by right he must have put in at least two Republicans. U.S. President Warren Gamaliel Harding in his first message to Congress, discarded the League of Nations and asked for a declaration of peace with Germany. These are substantial gains, but beyond that all is vague. Both camps claim that the President is with them, that the treaty will be eventually ratified in much amended form, that it will be discarded.
