A congress of the six great Euro
pean States, which the United States
and Japan might be invited to join,
might possibly establish an interna-:
.tional court Of arbitration, which
should have Jurisdiction over the con-
troversies of a carefully defined class
and to which powers not represented
in the Congress would be at liberty
to submit disputes in which they were
concerned. Experience indicates
that in this way only can any sub
stantial progress in the direction OF
substituting pacific warfare methods
in the adjustment Of differences be
attained.
