GOT THANKLESS TASK
THROUGH LEAGUE
MANDATE.
Treaty Granting Independ-
ence is Signed, but British
Must Shape People Into
a Nation.
By a earrow margin Irak signed the
Anglo -Irak Treaty—the only possible
instrument assuring her eventual in-
dePendence—and the. British will eon-
tinue in the rather thankless task of
shaping an irresponsible and inesPere
traced people into a nation, says a
Bagdad despatch.
Great Britain having accepted the
mandate of Irak, entice -the League of
Nations directly after the war, plan -
gated herself, acaepted a trust, an
she intends, if possible, to bear with
this trust to the end. Since 1917
Great Britain has done moee with
Irak than any 'other riatien could pos-
eibly lia,ve done, but even so has suc-
ceeded onlyein setting up a moie or
less fallible monarchy, preettled over
by an Arab figurehead, and liable at
any, time to be theown, withdut for-
• eigrt guidance, into internal anarchy.
Great Bletain has long since realized
that as an investment Irak is thor-
oughly bad, and that the pounds (6,-
000,000) which she annually pours in-
to this. investment, could be muck bet-
ter put ,to- use elsewhere. She has
done all In her power to mould this
disjointed section into a 'nation, but
one cannot make a durable crock of
sand arid water, and' it is plain that
the Iraki, at least at ibis stage of their
development, are little better than
sand and water. And since in eddition
to this there has been an appeeciable-
amount of irritation caused by the pet-
tiness of some Irak officials, the Bri-
tish are quite prepared. to leave the
country. But they do not wieh. to
leave it in its present vulnerable and
un.stable condition; it woilld be a very
severe reflection on their ability and
,It thus became very evident
that a departure of some sort was
necessary.
Tenor of the Treaty.
The result was the negotiation of a
treaty with a protocol and subsidiary
agreements, folloaring in its wake. The
nmoh-discussed Anglo -Irak 'treaty sets
certain stilpula,tions for the • future
which will give the -m

and whioh, grants to the British cer-
tain financial end military rights that
will allow them to carry on in the
country for another four years and es-
tablish the Irak Government as a per-
manent institution.
But 'some Iraki contend that the
treaty is severe; that it wreste from
them certain inviolate rights, iraposea
upon them reetrictione which will im-
pair growth and retard them in their
struggle for ineeependence; laye upon
them rigid financial demands and ob-
ligations—in short, is an instrument
which will preclude realization of their
Ideal. In their stigmatisra and youth
they are not aware that the clauses of
the treaty, genera14 speaking, point
toward their eventeal benefit, and that
without the protection and guidance it
affords they will be left a prey to ine
vasion.
Charge British With Imperialism.
Since the acceptance of the mandate
the efforte of the British have been
highly favored with altruism, but thie
fact in no way checks the bitterness.
of excitable tongues., for the British
have been accused of having imperial-
istic designs in their policies concern-
ing Irak. When one stops to. eoheider
that Great Britain's, policies are .de -
terminad not by individual.' and iso-
lated countries but by 'world-wide in-
terests, and it is understood that the
occupancy of Irak by the British. has
been an exception to this, rule, and
that by her connections, with Irak she
njures her more universal interests it
is beyond reason to accuse her lot lin-
perialistic motives.
Situation at Present.
Now that -the treate is ratified by -
the -constituent assembly the Iraki
have made their first move in the de
rection of an eventual independence.
The British will stand by them for an-
other four years, will protect them and
their interests. will shape' them for
membership in the League of Nations,
will develop their country and will
then, at the end of the stipulated
period, leave' the management of the
country entirely to the iraki and wish
them Godspeed. A rejection of the
treaty would assuredly haVe meant
the downfall of Irak and than an oven-
tual invasion by, outside Powers have

tions as Turkey and Persia and the
less friendly tribes of Arabia, except
for the possibility of international
