TO BLESS THE WORLD
Secretary Daniels Foresees
Era When International
Peace Will Be Enforced.
WARNING TO WAR LORDS

All the peace-loving nations of the
world must enter into an international
agreement neither to throw away their |
guns nor to tie up their ships. but to !.
make them the common international
police on land and sea, Secretary Dam |
iels told the National Geographic So
ciety last night.
I'VE may not expect all nations to
accept the tenders of worldwide broth-
erhood in the spirit in which it will be
rendered by the twentieth century
after-the-war chivalry," the Secretary
said. Therefore all the peace-loving
nations must enter into an interna-
tional agreement neither to throw
away their guns nor to tie up their
warships, but to make them one COM
mon international peace police on land
and sea, rendering to all nations, great
and small, the high court of arbitra-
ton for the settlement of all differ
ences, ready to enforce the DEGREES of
that tribunal and make this police
force so strong that no war lord will
dare ever again to resort to the sword
to impose his will or his country's
greed upon other nations.

'These practical knights of peace and
justice will master the secrets of earth
and sea and Sky for the comfort and
improvement of the race. They will let
no water power remain Embarrassed.

the secrets of nature to increase pro-
duction faster than population makes
demand for food and raiment and COM
forts-aye, and luxuries, also. for the
best is none too good for all who labor.
Discoveries now undreamed of will re-
spond to the master touch of men OF
genius and we shall transport without
loss from one continent to another the
products and wares that will add to hu-
man happiness.
These new knights of science and in
dustry the new day will usher in will
prevent any fruits or vegetables going
to waste in the tropics that would
please the palate of any man in the fur
thermost north. Waste will be eIimi-
mated from pole to pole. Governments,
instead of being required to spend bill
lions on arms. will raise large sums for
the creation of instrumentalities of ed
ucation and research and scientific pro-
duction until mo man who labors will
lack anything that will give nourish-
IkASAl VI duu u HIS happiness.
Selfishness to Be Supplanted.
Selfish individustsm will be replaced
by enlightened cooperation. And
whatever any nation produces that is
good will be made availble without
profiteering to men and women in every
other nation. Chemists and workers in
ordnance and in making munitions will
be freed from making agencies of de-
struction they may carry on expert
ments and operations to multiply all
things that will sustain and make life
moro abundant instead of increasing
the butchery of the race. Education of
all, medical treatment without cost and
free hospitals for the aged and inf1rm-l
the real tests of civilization-will be
universal. Teachers and physicians and
preachers will be honored above cap
tains of wealth and exploiters and poll
ticians
These will be some of the fruits of
the peace that will bless the world
when the parliament of man and fed
GRAFTON of the world come to US. And
it will come-let no man doubt that
We shall find this place in the sum- not
for our country alone, but its warmth
shall surely bless all mankind
