Gcrmnny'a argument against dis
armament. as presented by her reprcs
HontatlycH at The Hague congtvss,
came like a sad thud Of sod on the
coffin ~ the CARS proposition 60 the
nations Of the earth. There was no
efficient reply 60 tho logic employed.
In substance u was this that the re-
ductlon OF the armies would not guar
antcc peace. for the simple reason that
such reduction would not mean a
40 ninution 81 the country's offensive
power. The military strength ~ a
power consists not only In It, standing
army. but In iu transportation facili-
ties. its ability 20 mobilize troops and
above all IN its financial resources.
The standing army may be reduced,
but that does not render the large and
wealthy nations incapable Of making
war upon their weaker noighbora.
Hence. reduction OF tho army would
b. utterly useless az a peace measure.
but Notwithstanding this uuanswer-
able logic. there r. reason 90 believe
that the deliberations OF the conference
will lead TO something practical. A
correspondent OF the London Daily
News says the German delegates have
been instructed TO give their assent TO
the proposition looking 70 tho forma-
ton Of an international court OF arbi-
tratlon. providing no compulsory clause
h added TO H. The existence Of such a
court would certainly greatly change
the affairs of the world. Public scnu-
mont would compel governments 90 re-
FER to Il. and TO abide. In most cases.
By ita decisions.
That plan Is practical II should
commend itself TO the sound sense Of
the delegates. unless Indeed they are
Indifferent TO public opinion throughout
the civilized world.
