most scrupulous and far sighted judg
ment. Yet notwithstanding the fact
that local and national affairs demand
the closest attention and study for
their adjustment in order that they may
become efficiently beneficial to the
people and logically understood by
them, there is dawning throughout the
whole human race demand for JUS
tice which appeals to the higher intelli-
gence of all nations alike, and that is:
the question of international rights of
men.
"Appeals come from many directions
and for causes almost too innumerable
to mention, in law, in medicine, hy-
giene, science, religion, etc, etc. And
today, although the thirst for knowledge
can largely be gratified in each city
and state, the science, art, laws of all
nations are being so diffused through
the press, literature, commerce and
travel, that in spite of national pride,
one nation depends upon the other. The
horrors of war and destruction of life
and property have been from the begin
ming of time obnoxious and depressing
to the soul of man-and God knows,
this will always be so, for the higher
instinct is not to destroy but to ele-
vate and create.
"You well know that the cry Of peace
may reach the ear Of multitudes and
sound pleasantly there; often the more
so because husbands and children, for
tunes and estates have been sacrificed
through aggression and war. The most
logical reasons for reducing ornaments
will pour in upon all Governments and
palaces will be built for pacifistic dis
cussion, but surely you realize that
peace can only come from one source,
that is: by just administration.
Furnishes Common Hearth.
"No nation in the world is so deeply
international as America. It's whole
population is descended from the old
world. 1t has the high mission of fur
nishing common hearth to the children
of all people.
"I am endeavoring to bring before
the minds of all nations the necessity Of
central point of international com
munication in the form Of monumen
tai, modern, hygienic city, so compre
hensive and practical as to house an(
deal with those questions which are
common to all peoples alike, and thu
solution of which is necessary for thei
mental, physical and spiritual progress
Why should not such a city be unveiled
upon the Atlantic coast. 1t would be il
keeping with its noblest records o
union and democracy, and thus spring
ing into reality from virgin soil, woul,
undoubtedly extend its lights far dow
