Machinery Of Leaaue.

Now. what IS the machinery. a re-
sort to which we wish to force an in
tending belligerent OF the league-it
consists OF two tribunals, to one OF
which every issue must be submitted
Issues between nations are OF two
classes: First-issues that can be de-
cided on principles OF international
law and equity called iusticiable.
'Second-Issues that cannot be de-
cided on such principles Of law and
equity. but which might be quite as
irritating and provocative OF war.
called non-justlciable.
We propose that for justiciable
questions We shall nave an impartial
court to which all questions arising
between members OF the league shall
be submitted II the court finds the
question justiciable. il shall decide IT,
n II does not. IL shall refer IL 10 a

They will create body OF judge-made
law OF the highest value. Then the
existence OF the league will lead TO
ever recurring congresses of the

upon which a successful arrangement
can be made.
We are greeted FIRST by the objec-
ton that no treaties can prevent war.
we are not called upon to deny this
IN order TO justify or TO vindicate our
proposals as useful. We realize that
nations are sometimes utterly immoral
IN breaking treaties and shamelessIy
bold IN ayowing their right to do so
on the ground Of necessity: but this
Is not always the case We cannot
give up treaties because sometimes
they are broken any more than we
can give up commercial contracts be-
cause men sometimes dtshonor them
selves In breaking them. We decline
to assume that all nations are always
dishonorable or that a solemn treaty
obligation will not have deterrent ef-

we add TO this the sanction OF an
