ton had been put forward as an OBJ
ject of international policy" and ia
its name great states had concluded
among themselves powerful alliances"
And in its name too, they had devei
Oped their military forces in proper
lions unprecedented and were still in
creasing them without shrinking at
any sacrifice"
But, the note further asserted, these
efforts had not brought about the be.
inefficient results professedly desired.
They had burdened the nations with
charges which struck at the very
root of prosperity" They had diverted
the intellectual and physical strength
iOf the nations from their natural APP
plication and caused an enormous UNI
productive consumption National
culture, economic progress and the
production of wealth are either para
lyZed or checked in development.
Moreover, in proportion as the arma
ments of each power increase they
less and less fulfill the object the gov
ernments have set before themselves
The entire note was an argument
for international peace, not by con
verting all nations into armed camps
the fallacy that peace can be promoted
in that way was fatty rejected in tn /.
sentence just QuOted-but first by put
ting an end to the progressive devel-
Opment of ornaments and next by
progressively reducing ornaments.
Thus less than nine years ago the
puissant czar of all the Russians did
not hesitate to discuss the subject of
ornaments. He did not hesitate to
say in substance that they had grown
to be a curse and that the time was
ripe for getting rid of their crushing
burdens
What has happened since to make
him join Germany and Austria in
throwing cold water on international
discussion which in 1898 he said was
the most effectual means of insuritg
the benefit of all peoples?
Surely events which have since .,
Cured and in some of which he has
been painfully involved do not go to
weaken in the least the force of the
argument he addressed to the nations
inviting them to the first peace con
ference at The Hague.
