PENN'S PEACE PLAN.
Justice TO All Nations by Means Of an
international Board Of Delegates.

To THE EDITOR OF THE SUN--Sir: AL
| though William Penn Is known throughout
civilized CD Europe as the founder OF
one OF the most successful colonies In
America. he Is hardly ever spoken Of as
one of the foremost advocates of peace
the world has ever known. In this field
he is even greater, II dare confide my
opinion to paper, than Andrew Carnegie.
In 1898. while Europe was plunged in q
war scarcely less terrible than the present
conflict bids fair to become. he published
plan for the peace or Europe upon
conferences OF the present day are
founded A study of the remarkable
document shows how little the world has
advanced on the road to the goal OF uni
versal peace War Is declared on such
slight pretext now as In any other but
the very earliest era Of European civill-
zatlon.
His plan for the peace of the world
was the substitution OF Justice for war.
as Justice vested to-day in our courts
takes the place of strife between private
individuals in the settlement OF claims.
grievances and injuries and the procuring
OF peace In the community. Justice was
to be dealt out equtafby to all nations
by an International assembly OF delegates
each country being represented according
to Its population. Every objection to the
plan liz refuted by Penn In a logical and
exceedingly painstaking fashion. showing
how deeply he had studied the problem
and how carefully he had viewed IT from
every angle. In setting forth the numer-
Gus advantages he says:
