This argument shows a total lack of
understanding OF the idea of neutral

The first and Indispensable pre-

that its CHARACTER FOR IMPAIR

to one or more of the guaranteeing
powers, but not to all, it has violated
the faith that il owes to all, and be-

lions.

Kant for Perpetual Peace and Euro
pean Federation.

As to the immincncc of the dan
ger to Germany there can be no uues-
ton from the expressions OF the lead
great power now at war with Ger
many. to the effect that GERMANY
MUST BE DESTROYED. For years
English. French and Russian news
papers and periodicals were stud
iously employed in breeding hatred
and jealousy against Germany. OF
course, the German press rctaliated,
and thus, there was prepared that
feeling of hostility which eliminated
in the war. The declarations of var
ious statesmen, particularly the En-
Slisli, that this Is Il war in which the
nations are fighting for the survival
of the fittest. cCrroborate the Ger
man conviction that they were in a
struggle for existence.
1t is becoming more and more rec
ognized that the way to have peace is.
to encourage sentiments of kindness,
justice and helpfulIess among the
peoples of the world. A survey of
history teaches us that we can find
no hopes for peace in the parchment
and seals OF treat.ea Even the
plan proposed by the great German
philosopher, Kant. who sought his
pean federation. seems hardly prac
ticable, though its dcsirubilty admits
of little question.

The Right of self-Preseryation.

But even. if it be granted for ar
Suments sake. that the validity of
the old treaty was not affected by
changed conditions, Germany still
has an absolute and incontrovertible
defense in the supreme law Of self
preservation. The German ultima
tum to the Belgian government, Aug.
,. 1914. referring to the intended
French invasion of Germany through
Belgium, declares, 1T is Germany's
imperative duty of self-preservation
to forcstall this attack of the enemy"
Germany invokes this rule, which
is not only sanctioned by the princt-
pies OF International Law, but which
is diyinely fixed in the instinct of
everything that lives-the impulse
of self-protection and of self-defense.
1t will be seen from the express
sions here given, of the most eminent
authorities on international Law,
that the right of self-preservation
prccedes and underlies every other
obligation. All treaties are subordin-
ated and subject to this basic and in
herent right. 1t is implied, and
read into, every treaty and contract.

Nothing Perpetual Except Change il
Conditions,

Professor Pomeroy, another high
American authority, after fullest
consideration. supports Mr. Taylor
in a way that must carry conviction.
No one really believes there can be
such Il thing as perpetual treaty.
There is nothing perpetual in mum
dane affairs except change. Change
and modification make the music
that beats to the march OF time. The
lead will not be allowed indefinitely
to control the dcstinies of the living,
uor to tetter the wings of progress or
development. The English Statutes
of Mortmain were passed to do away
with the dead hand that gripped the
and of the living. This principle, as
applied to treaties, is thus explained
in Pomeroys international Law, at
page 3o2:
1T should be remembered that the
nature of treaties between nations
discloses to us features which ought
to distinguish these treaties from
compacts between individuals. In
fact, nations have an indefinite eX-
lstence. All the generations to come.
without having consented in person
find themselves bound, by the act of
he generation which concluded the
convention; the stipulations of the
treaty, by the lapse of years or by
Sill bscquent changes, may become SO
opposed to the manners. to the siIua-
ton of the respective powers. to the
state Of their industry, OF their COM
merce, OF their forces of every kind !.
that. justly these stipulations should
no longer be maintained.
In summing up the occasions when
treaty ceases to have binding force
| Mr.. poweroy cites NJ. Pinheiro-Fcr-
reira, one Of the leading modern
french wroters on Public and In
tcrnational Law. as follows:
II speak OF those treaties which
governments sometimes make with
the caluse that they are and shall re-
main binding FOREVER. or at least
Until both contracting parties agree
to rescind or to modify them. Such
. conventions never have been. nor
should they be, taken literally, for it
would be absurd to suppose that the
present generation could have the
right to bind future generations by
, conventions, good or bad at the time
of their inception, that the posterity
of one contracting party ought to be
sacrificed to the posterity of the 9TH
nr. Treaies bind nations only SO long
as the principle upon which their
validity rests continues to exist

Treaties Affected by Changed Condi-
tions,

HanniS Taylor. great American
authority on international law. says
that treaties of guarantee. like all
other obligations of suretyship. are
strictly construed. He shows that
a treaty may become voidable thru
subsequent events, and says ,Sec.
394 International Public Law that
80 unstable are the conditions of
international existence, and SO diff
ficult is II to enforce Il contract be-
tween States after the state of facts
upon which it was founded has sub
stantially changed, that all such
agreements are necessarily made sub
ject to the general understanding
that they shall cease to be obligatory
so soon as the conditions upon which
they were executed are essentially al
tered "
Mr.. Taylor ,Sec. 1851 cites Rus
sa's contention as to the Treaty of
Paris. He says that in 1870, when
Russia determined to repudiate some
of the vital provisions of the Treaty
of Paris relating to the neutrality of
the Black Sea-by which she had
been fettered at the close OF the Cri-
mean war and which her subsequent
development had rendred unbcar-

Germany Had No Desire for War.

The German people are entitled to
universal admiration for the way in
which they have borne themselves
in this, the supreme trial of their ma
tional life. They stand together with
a singleness, of spirit that has rarely
been CQualieu.
Their unanimous conviction that
they are engaged in purely defens-
i've war thrust upon them by the ma
chinations of their enemies cannot be
prcdicated upon the theory that they
are Spell-bcund by some hypnotic il
fusion. They are too practical a
people to chase after military glory
and risk the assets at hand. No
prospect could have been more prom
Using or satisfactory than the contin-
ued peaceful operations that yielded
such valuable dividends in every
thing that can make a people pros.
'eiuus and happy. She was an ac-
knowledsed cultural center Of III"

and art treasures attracted stuue..,

was unsurpassed. In Judging wheth-
err Germany was DESTROYS of putting a
quictus upon such splendid status

should reason upon normal probabii-
tiles and give such people credit
