ing for Cooperation.

London, Dec. 23.-Viscount Grey,
former secretary for foreign affairs,
has written, at the request of the re-
search committee of the league of
nations union, an Introductory note to
a pamphlet entitled THE peace con-
ference and After After urging the
great opportunity affected by the
peace conference for taking a prac-
teal step in the direction of forming a
league of nations, Viscount Grey says:
1T is not necessary for the peace
conference to create a league of ma
tions. The conference will, in itself,
be a vital beginning of such a league.
All that is absolutely necessary is that
it should not commit suicide but keep
itself alive by adjourning and leaving
a permanent organization instead of
dissolving itself and destroying its
machinery. =

it is all that is essential. A begin

ming that has in it vitality and power
of growth is better than more COM
piete and more attractive creation that
has no life. One is a living thing
while the other is piece of furniture.
1.-Two more points 1 would especially
commend to careful and sympathetic
consideration. One is the possibility
of applying the principle of trustee
ship to those vast tracts, especially
Africa, where no independent national
government of the native inhabitants
can be formed. The other is empha-
sized in the earnest advocacy of the
part to be taken by the United States
in helping to give effect to this prin-
ciple of trusteeship and in the council
of the world.
without the United States any
council or league of nations will soon
be little better than the old concert
of Europe which was spoiled invari-
ably by intrigues within it and split
into opposing groups.
1T has required the united efforts
of the allies and the United States to
win the war of right against wrong
and to make peace. 1t will need the
united and continuous altho peaceful
action of all of them to maintain
peace
ut would be as fatal to the future
of the world for the United States to
lapse INTO the old idea of strict isola-
ton, as it would be for any power to
revive the German policy of separate
conquest and domination. 1t is, I be-
| lieve in this spirit and for this pur-
pose that the people of this country
desire close and cordial relations with
| the United States. We think the peo-
| pie of the United States are conscious
| OF the great and beneficent Influence
| they exercised on the history of the
world by the party they took in this
war. We cannot believe that they will
