Switzerland Like United States.

Switzerland is the only European
example of Il federative and demo-
cratic republic of the American type,
observes n writer. Switzerland, as the
United States, was born from a desire
for emancipation from autOcratic des-
pOtism like the United States, Swift
zerland never believed in the divine
right of kings. The very past which
the ancient federates, on that quiet
spot, the 'Rutli," ON the classic Lake
Of Lucerne on August 1, 1901, swore
to, embodles that great principle for
which now, 626 years later, the United
States is fighting, namely, to quote
President Wilson's own words, For
the right of those who submit to au-
thorlty to have a voice in their own
governments" There the old Swiss
proclaimed self-gOvernment against the
autocratic rule of the Hapsburg, in the
following words: "We Ordaln and di-
rect with unanimous accord, that in
the aforementioned valleys we shall
recognize no judge who shall have
bought his rights with money or in any
other manner, or who shall not be a
native and an i|nhabltanI Of these dis
tricts."

Of civic development possible which
