PEACE AT ANY PRICE.
By David Starr Jordan, Chancellor of Leland
Stanford IT. University

Are we For Peace at Any Price" Let us
face face the issue squarely. When we do this. the
really comes up, there is peace to be had
at any price. II any price will bring peace, real
peace, let US pay it. In this war; no peace was
offered at any price to Serbia, to Belgium. to
France. Some sort of peace offered at
price to Austria, Russia Germany, and Great
Britain: Should these nations have taken it at
the price! This question each may answer for
himself. And paying the price, would they have
had peace, real peace, well worth the cost And
when real peace is offered, whatever the price,
there is no need to talk of war.
What could not Europe have afforded to paw
to prevent the great catastrophe? What has war
cost Europe and when will it be able to repay
And for us, we would see the price lists first
With L incoln, we would count the cost. If we
do not, 1t may stagger US. And will get peace
when we pay for it? Not the armed peace of fear
and hate, for that is scarcely half disguised
but the peace of mutual trust and international
confidence. Sooner or later that must come for
as the day follows night the principle of
federation must succeed unbalanced nationalism
in the development of the civilized world.
Either Prof Jordan has in his mind the peace
that passeth all understanding" or his explanation
has meaning for the ordinary intellect There
was peace for Belgium at price, there was peace
for France at price, there peace for Eng
land at price. The price the bowling of the
head at the approach of the 'conqueror the reach
ing for the shacklcs of the serf held out by the
tyrant the delivery of native land into the hands
of the despoiler. The peace bought for such a
price may not be the "real peace" Prof Jordan is
thinking OF. but it is the kind of peace France and
Belgium could have had at the price, the same
kind of peace Americans can have at the price the
paciists would have them pay.
Is the cost that Prof. Jordan would have
Americans pay, the cost that Lincoln would
have counted and have paid? And are Americans
to sacrifice their nationality, to be reduced to
servity while waiting for the peace that comes
of mutual trust and international confdence" II
may be that sooner or later that must come" but
may we not consider what will be the state of
America when it does come, if we are first in all
the warning world to cry for peace at any price7
Prof. Jordan is protesting paci6st but if his
appeal in the Independent is for an unarmed and
submissive United States 1t is addressed to a
people who will not respond because they will
not understand. There must exiS for him a
human nature as yet undiscovered by the ordinary
student or scholar. He has presented convincing
argument for preparedness against the day when
the invader comes, as he came to Belgium and to
France.
