An international Court Of Justice.

The court convention at Cleveland has ten
tadvely put forth a suggestion that deserves
serious consideration. It is for an international
court Of Justice, to which may be brought causes
that are now handled through other channels
and which only too frequently lead to serious
friction between nations. Such a court could
easily be made an instrument for the preserva-
ton Of peace between nations, following tho
ideal of President Taft's proposals. when he
sought to negotiate treaties providing for the
arbitration OF international disputes. The de-
STABILITY of such tribunal Is admitted.
Judge Alton B. Parker's criticism Of the
United States senate for having blocked the way
to the contamination OF the Taft treaties Is we'll
put Partisan or personal selfishness engen-
dered opposition 10 President Taft's plans and
brought his efforts to naught. When revived
by Mr.. Bryan IL proved that the senate was too
busy trying to carry out a democratic caucus
program for reform" to give much time to the
serious consideration OF so important a topic as
the establishment OF peace throughout the
world. 1t is not at all pleasant to view tho
present situation in Europe and recall at the
same time some Of the objections raised against
the Taft treaties five years ago by senators Of
the United States.
The weakness OF an international court OF
Justice will lie in the difficulty OF enforcing its
DEGREES. However. the strong likelihood that
after the present war more attention will be paid
to treaties between nations supports the hope
that harmony will be more easily established
and preserved. permanent tribunal for the
settlement Of international differences will be

One Disadvantage Apparsnt.

One complication that ia likely TO arise from
interruption Of friendly intercourse with Ger
many is the possible disqualification Of the
United States to act as mediator when the time
for readjustment OF International relations on
peace basis arrives. This contingency is. Of
course. remote. and yet It is within the range
OF possibility, and Ia a factor in the Importance
OF the present intercourse with Germany. It
might not be vital to the cause OF peace to have
the United States eliminated as arbiter OF the
negotiations, yet the advantage OF having the
proceedings moderated by the presence OF the
most powerful nation Of the world not actually
engaged in the war is so distinct as to need no
argument
II the United States should be disqualified,
the situation might bring to the fore one of the
South American republics, for the neutral Eu-
ropean nations will suffer for the same reason
that we do. II has been all along tacitly con-
coded that this country would be looked to rs

Health, page 40.
After you have gotten the victory over
sin, do you still wish to keep it on hand

It must be highly gratifying to an
audience of thinking people to be sdjured
not TO investigate Christian Science for
themselves. as they were but lily fitted to

Glories in It," That headline was plainly
intended to create prejudice and is n
mischievous INSTRUMENTATION Of the con-
tents Of the letter. which was obviously
written az defense against the furious
denunciaticns arising from pro-British
sources. II certainly does not rebound
TO tho credit OF The Pee to allow its
headline writer's such latitude.
II an unbiased history OF the war is
ever written the attitude Of the press as
manifested through It's headline writer's
will form an important chapter. Grossly.
and in many cases mallciously mIsieadins
headlines. have probably done more to
create prejudice and to spread psychic
contagion' than censored news, fake re-
ports and editorials. You have an ex-
ample OF the vicousness OF such tactics
in the case OF Leo Frank II you would
investigate through newspaper files
about the time OF the murder, you would
find that inflsmed public opinion had it's
first start right there. in the mob thirst
for revenge. such as prccedes every lynch
ing. with newspaper headlines of sensa-
tional character carrying the poison TO
the InreasoninR multitudes. Does the
selling of few more papers justify out
raging the truth?
Your Plattsmouth contributor attacks
George Weienfeld's letter with the bril-
liant conclusion that the writer must be
a German and therefore not possessed Of
good sense. Mr.. Weidenfeld's letter was
a model Of logic and his reasoning in

such source is ludicrous. II you will

The Luaitnnin Horror.

SHERIDAN. Wyo., May 12.-To the
Editor OF The Bee: Tho United States
is facing the most serious problem since
old Independence Bell rang out its glad
tidings on July 4. 1773, since Fort Sumter
was fired upon in April, 1851, ard the
battleship Maine was sunk in Havana
harbor. All three of these incidents led
TO a war. But what of war? Where is
the justice in It? Wha: argument as to
the right and wrong OF a discussion is
there in gunpowder? The best definition
ever given of war was that given by
General William Tecumseh Sherman:
war is hell"
The destruction Of the Lusltania was
an act horrible enough 70 shame every
fair minded individual. II is an act that
will undoubtedly set all nations to think
ing seriously OF the right and wrong of
war. They will realize that 1t is not
right in the name OF God and christianity,
OF justice, to march hundreds OF thous-
ends of innocent. irresponsible. young
men to the front and shoot them down
because the leaders OF those nations are
in a political discussion. They will
realize that the shedding OF human blood
does not settle the right or wrong OF a
dispute. 1t lie ridiculous and awful to
kill these young men. as was the old
time practice of duelling. which never
decided which party was in the right or
wrong.
There are few people In the United
States that really know why this Buro-
pean war started, and stlll less who can
reason how IL can be stopped and settled
for. But whatever comes up, 1t As to be
hoped our people will be careful. thought
full. conservative, hopeful and encour-
aging TO all that means for peace. for
everlasting peace between all the nations
OF the earth Let us stand by our noble
President Wilson and help him with all
that is best in US lie is our president
and we must uphold him and support
him, no matter what our political beliefs
may be. HORACE p. HOLMES, NJ. d.
