Description

The Balance of Power: At a recent meeting of the French Assembly, Premier Clemenceau declared among other points of his policy an advocacy of the conditions of world politics known as a balance of power. After listening to his speech the Assembly by a large majority gave him a vote of confidence. This balance of power is the admirable system which enabled the two groups of European nations to line up so evenly in the World War and which only failed to bring about an indecisive termination because the United States had not been considered in the balancing. In one of his English speeches Pres. Wilson openly declared himself opposed to any such relation of powers. He said he would not make himself "a party to any combination of nations that is not a combination of us all." Here again he has made himself the spokesman of the opinion of all Americans.
