KIPLING ON AMERICA.
(From the New York World.)
Every once in a while Mr. Rudyard Kipling’s blood pressure rises
and he feels himself urged to prophecy. On these occasions the voice
the gestures, the lightning and thunder, are perfectly rehearsed. It. all
seems tremendous—
We they redeemed denied their blood
And mocked the gains it won.
This is the correct way to be an oracle.. For since nobody can •
be sure what the lines mean, everybody can fall under the spell. But
in that case the prophet can make no greater mistake than to explain
himself.
Explaining himself to Mrs. Clare Sheridan is absolutely fatal to
Mr. Kipling. The oracle turns out to be a fussy little man who stood on
Yimy Ridge in a stovepipe hat and a frock coat and viewed the agony
of Europe with the mind of “a dowager mewing for blood.”
For with a bloodthirstiness and an ignorance of the facts so much
more characteristic of the .terrible fighters in fashionable drawing-rooms
than of the soldiers in the field, Mr. Kipling finds the explanation of
everything that is wrong in the imiginary fact that ‘‘America had forced
the Allies into insisting upon finishing in Berln.” This explains Bolshe
vism and German propaganda and anti-French sentiment and criticism
of the reparation policy.
The statement is a He. But Mr. Kipling himself is not a liar.
He is merely irresponsibly repeating a lie.
For the truth is that America did not force the Allies to make
peace at the first opportunity. The truth is that the British and the
French armies through Foch and Haig insisted on the armistice against
the protest of Pershing and the American command. It was Foch, Clem
enceau and Lloyd George who rejected Pershing’s memorandum for a
continuation of the offensive. It was Foch who rejected the American
plan for an absolute disarmament of the German troops, because he
feared the Germans would not accept It. It was Foch who insisted on
softening the original terms of the naval armistice because he feared the
Germans might refuse.
It is Foch who has repeatedly replied to this lie by pointing out
that the military victory was complete in that the Allies could dictate
the peace and that to continue the war one hour longer would have been
mass murder. If Mr. Kipling has any doubt about the truth of these
assertions we suggest that he consult Foch, Haig, Pershing, Lloyd George.
Clemenceau and House—the men who made the armistice.
We make these assertions without pride. For Foch and Haig
were right and Pershing was wrong. The war ended not one minute too
soon. It ended with a victory so absolute that the victors ha dit in their
power to dictate to the whole Continent of Europe and did dictate
The real tragedy of the peace is that the victors could not refrain
from abusing the power which the soldiers had won. That was where
"we they redeemed denied their blood and mocked the gains it won.”
And for that mockery the spirit of Rudyard Kipling is chiefly responsible.
The credulity, the self-righteousness, the irresponsiblity and the blood
lust which he voices are precisely the reason why good faith and wisdom
were suffocated in Paris by British imperialism and French militarism.
No reader of The World needs to be told that America’s behavior
since the armistice is far from brilliant. But Mr. Kipling is not the man
irho is entitled or able to make the criticism, for his temper in inter
national affairs is that of Ludendorff, of the French royalists, of our own
Henry Cabot Lodges and William Randolph Hearts. It is a poisonous
P«*t. Yon have only to make a chart of Mr. Kipling’s political pro
nouncements to see that they consist almost entirely of an effort to
create devil nations for the British High Tory to hate. Once Russia was
the devil nation—‘,the bear that walks like a man." Then it was Ger
many, in the period when German and British militarists were egging
each other on. Now it is America, which “lent us money at 8 per cent,
and made good business out of it.” If Mr. Kipling were an American
he would be a King Kleagle of the Ku Klux Klan.
It is just this capacity for hatred based on ignorance of the facts
and a refusal to consider them which is today the supreme enemy of
Civilisation. If the Kiplings prevail in all countries, white civilization
1s doomed. It will *° down through its own futile. superstitious
There is plenty to criticise in the conduct of the United States
since the armistice. But there is one thing that even Mr. Kipling can
not be permitted to forget. We came out of the war wKh clean hands—
hskod for none of the loot and wo received none of the loot. It is
fwr unique distinction among the Allied and Amociated Powers that
