WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass., Aug. 25.
In an appeal to America to join the
allies in winning the peace, the Earl
of Birkenhead, former lord chancellor
of Great Britain emphasized in the
final lecture of the Institute'of Politics
last night that self interest alone
should determine this country's course.
He asserted the world was not yet
ready for the idealism of Woodrow
Wilson.
Lord Birkenhead declared the world
probably would sot survive if idealism
were given a completely free rein;
no nation in democratic condition ever
would become the knight errant of
the world. He said Mr. Wilson's
judgment of his countrymen was
wrong and through this error he be-
came the agent of all post-war devel-
opments from which altruistic mhids
would have recoiled. He insisted that
Germany should ba made to pay as
a warning to others, declaring that
a dozen unscrupulous but powerful
men, deliberating privately in Berlin,
had decided upon the World War.
“It is no use abusing the treaty of
Versailles," he said, "that treaty was
. the creature of the victorious mood ;
of the victorious allies. • • •
"It is a fascinating specula (ion
whether had President Wilson been
given health and strength to pursue
the campaign which he contemplated,
his idealism and personality could
have affected the forces of the worid.
“I am bold enough to doubt it. For
the real truth is that while the whole
world requires the encouragement and
light of idealism, the whole world
would probably not survive if idealism
were given a complete free rein.-'
