A War Without

Il would not be just to say that
the civil and military powers Of the
great countries OF Europe have In
tentionally brought harm to their
people. But they are not fitted for
their responsibilities. Modern hui
mainly demands appropriate public
ideals In government policy and ac-
ton. The real enemies Of the Euro
pean millions are not the peace-loy-
ing farmers and Industrial workers of
neighbor countries. but the false
views and methods Of their own gov
ernments and dominating classes. II
had been hoped by real statesmen, a.
well as by humanitarians, that such
opportunities for discussion as might
be Afforded by recurring peace confer
ences at The Hague would help to
postpone the danger OF general war
until means for fully averting II could
be devised and agreed upon. But the
