THE OBLIGATIONS OF
TREATIES

Under the system of world
government, the socalled interna
tional law is not capable of en-
forcement. There is no tribunal
clothed with authority to hear
and determine cases or to enforce
the DEGREES of the Hague tribunal,
which latter tribunal exists by
common consent to hear matters
of dispute between nations. The
affairs between nations, there
fore, must be adjusted by inter
national agreements called treat.
les. Japan and England are both
insisting that existing treaties be-
tween this government and theirs
are being violated. For Japan,
the California alien land law fur
nishes the bone of contention.
For England, our Panama Canal
is the niger in the wood pile.
In plain English, are England
and Japan looking for something
which they can make a basis of
war?
The alliance between these two
powers still exists. That they
will act in concert is certain. The
one needs the other to help bull
rag the United States.
Both powers have strong
backing in this country. On the
Japanese question, the force of
the administration seems inclined
toward Japan. On the canal
question, this country is now be-
ing flooded with literature favor
able to England. The power of
this literature will be greatly aug
mented by the fact that on its
face it appears to be a spontane-
Gus appeal of great lawyers and
leading fnanciers, urging the peo-
pie to be true and faithful to the
treaty obligations of this country
with England. The power of
England allied with Japan, sup
plemented and sustained by the
highest mentality of this country,
makes a force which can not be
easily controlled if this country
should determine to do so.
Therefore, caution is the watch
word. tits easy to cry war, war;"
but the boys who have Smelled
powder and heard the roar of the
cannon, feel that diplomacy is the
safer and better method of set
ting our international questions.
Our intelligence, honor and in
tegrity are pledged to the faithful
observance of our treaties which
have been fairly made and kept
by the other high contracting
parties. The time to guard and
protect our interests, is when the
treaty is being made. We gain
nothing by breaking it.
This country is now confronted
with the ridiculous position of the
President of the United States
begging the Governor of Cali
fornia to veto the alien land law
bill passed by the legislature of
that State, in order to gain time
for him (the president) to have
further diplomatic dealings with
Japan. This law is either valid
or invalid, according to our own
laws. If valid, the president
should see that California is pro-
tected in its rights. If invalid, he
should ignore it and say so both
to Japan and California.
The canal question differs in
character and can not be deter
mined by our courts. The rights
of England and Panama, as we'll
as our own rights, are involved.
Thus an International question is
presented with no forum to which
the parties can resort.
We will enter more fully into
the question in our next issue.
