Terse Essay on Treaties.

A treaty Is form of disagreement
between two countries reduced to Ian
guage which enables each Of them to
crawl out Of 1t. 1t belongs in the same
family as the insurance policy, except
that no one can understand an insur.
ance policy. whereas, treaty reads
as though 1t were perfectly plain. until
something happens that makes one OF
the parties to 1t wish to get out Of 1t.
Treaties are used for various pur.
poses; to promote typewriting agen.
cies, lawyers, diplomats and to furnish
material for editorial writer's to con.
vey the impression that they know
something of what they are writing
about. The principal use Of treaties,
however, Is to bring on wars.-Life.
