peace. The spectacle teaches a lesson
we cannot ignore.
II we seek the dominant ideas in
world politics since We became inLe.
pendent nations We will find that We
! won our liberties when indfvidualisn
absorbed mems thoughts and inspired
| their deeds.
This idea was gradually supplanted
by that Of nationalism. which found en-
preston in the ambitions Of conquest
| and the greed for territory so manifest
in the nineteenth century. Following
| the impulse OF natonalism, the idea
of intcrnationalism began to develop.
1t appeared to be an increasing influence
throughout the civilized world when
the present war Of empires, that grea>
manifestation Of nationalism stayed its
/ progress in Europe and brought dis
couragemcnt to those who had hoped
! that the new idea would usher in. an
era Of universal peace and justice.

ton was moving and is breaking down

ample of nauonalism-
! Let us hope that 1t is the final out
burst Of the cardinal evils Of that Id a
| which has for nearly a century spread
it's baleful influence over the world.
Pan-Americanism is an expression or,
the idea Of intcrnationausm. AmericI
has become the guardian OF the ide
which will in the end rule the world
Pnn-Americanism is the most advanced
as we'll as the most practical form on
| that idea
1t has been possible because OF our
! geographical isolation, OF our similar
| political institutions, and Of our COM
mon conception Of human rights. Since
the European war began. other factors

Never before have our people so fully

the need and benefit Of internationat

vas a leader whose advice and counsel

COMPENSATION ACT
Judge Evans, Franklin Co., Declares
Law Constitutional.

Through a ruling of Common Pleas
Judge Evans, in the Franklin County
Court, another step was taken which
looks toward the absolute elimination
of the liability insurance companies
from the workmen's compensation in
Ohio. The Court held that the act
passed recently by the General As
sembly is constitutional and valid
This act provided that employers who
are not insured in the workmen's
compensation under the Industrial
Commission must sign an agreement
not to seek to indemnify themselves
by insurance. These employers may
carry their own risks, but cannot re-
insure themselves. The insurance
companies attacked the provision as
unconstitutional, since it was asserted
that it violates the obligation of con-
tracts. The claim was not sustained
in the Courts. Higher Courts will be
asked to review the decision.
