The Prime Object
OF Getting Together

AtS AiAA4C ~OJCCk
Of Getting Together
For what is the object of all our
getting together? Whv are we
fighting this war? It is to increase
the sum total of human happiness
all over the world. In 1914 therss
we're l,5o0,o00,0oo of human beings
on this planet of ours. OF thoseS
people 500,000,000, or one-third,
were more or less civilized in the
modern sense. The other 1000
oC0,000 were still lacking in what
we consider to be the essentials of
a noble life.
When the Founder of Christian
ity visited us He noticed two fail
ures in the Roman Empire. First,
the sick were neglected, and, Sec
ondly, no attention was paid to the
children. Let US apply those two
tests to reconstruction after the
wax. If the more backward nations
are to have the same medical at
tention as the average English city
before the war, we shall need an
army of half a million doctors, with
a million and half nurses, for
foreign service.
If these backward nations are to
have education in our sense, we
must build at least 250,000 schools
and send out 100000 teachers.
For the war after the war, there
fore--the war against ignorance
and disease-we shall require a
highly trained army of four mill
ions, and our entire surplus re-
sources will be needed to maintain
it In that kind of social service
We shall find the real guarantee fo.
the stability of league of nations.
In such movement to uplift hui
rianity France, with her clear-cut
altruism, the land of Saint Louis
and of Joan of Arc, will supply a
splendid inspiration. In thinking
and planning for others we our
selves should be drawn into closer
association. 1t is along these prac-
tical lines, therefore, that we should
look for the hope of the future.

Much of the degeneration of the sec,

get nights accommodations for from
3 to 25 cents. Vice in every form ex-

Energies Used in
Confidential Diplomacy

When Lord Bryce was at Wash
irgton he held a high position, with
a larger popular prestige, possibly,
than that of Lord Reading. Lord
Brce had written on America, and
had time and freedom to travel over
and speak on America. Lord Read
ing presides over the British En-
hassy at a far more strenuous and
critical time. On the one hand, his
energies are absorbed by confiden-
tial diplomacy, by finance, organiza-
ton and military cooperation. On
the other hand, he has to be eau
tjous Of the chance word. In his
public utterances he cannot afford
70 be misunderstood, and he plays,
therefore, for safety.

Some Problems
o Be Settled

Some of these problems are high
~ complex. To what extent, if at
all, should the United States pay
for the transport of her troops in
British ships? How far should
submarine risks be shared between
the growing American and the
shrinking British mercantile ma
rine? At what rate Of exchange
should the American dollar stand
against the British sovereign? How
far is it possible to support Euro
pean credit by placing American
orders for equipment in London,
Paris and Rome? Will such orders
unduly strain the depleted indus
trial man power of the Allies?
These and thousand other ques-
tons have engaged diplomacy at
Washington, and no British ambas-
sador has had SO many occasions
as Lord Reading for coming into
contact with an American Presl-
dent. This intimacy has been cord
ial and frank.
