Western Supreme Court Chief Tells
keekuk Audience League Of
Honor At Close Of War
Needed.
WILL INSURE SAFETY
Limit Armament Of Nations and ostra.
else Those That Violate
Agreement, His
Plan.

Judge s. II. White, chief justice OF
the supreme court of Colorado, made
a plea for permanent peace when he
spoke in the chautauqua tent in Rand
park Sunday afternoon. Judge White
was sent to Keokuk by the bureau OF
speakers Of the national committee
of public information.
The object OF his lecture was to pre-
pare people for the kind Of treaty
which should be made to close the
world war.
Judge White in his peroration trac-
ed the causes which led to the war.
This took the audience back a hundred
years to the balance of power main
tanned by nations in Europe.
When Intrigue Worked.
In 1908 Austria took Bosnia and
Herzegovina Middle Europe saw that
Germany was back Of this seizure and
Immediately made an adjustment OF
treaties.
Then came the assassination OF the
Archduke Francis Ferdinand in Bosnia,
which led to the opening OF the war.
Nations are like primitive men, !"
declared the speaker. "They have be-
lieved that might is right. But men
reasoned that they should adopt q
government which should give them
fewer liberties but more rights. Ma
tons like men will have to develop
along this same line to bring about
international peace"
League Of Honor.
Judge White said that there should
be league of honor among nations
to enforce international peace. He
named Austria and Germany's viola.
lions of international law and said
that Germany had ever held alooi
from observance O. any other nations
rights.
He advocated the establishment at
the close Of the war Of world wide
league to limit armament
Any nation violating internationa
rules made by this league should first
be ostracfzed, he suggested. Then Il
that didn't work, force should be EN-
ployed.
The Community band played. Mis-:
Beulah Well sang two solos, "The Bat
tie Hymn Of the Republic" and 1.-THE
Marseilles." ;,
There were 125 persons in the audi
ence.
