Extremely skeptical and fear
tul of a centralized govern
ment. Our first president met
with diffieultiestof an extreme
nature and the situation sever
al times was saved only by the
fact the first executive was a
man of wisdom and poise with
a war record that gave him
great prestige and the public
confidence.
Yet a centralized govern
ment was absolutely neces-
sary for this country. The
country would have been prev
to innumerable ills without
such a government. The peo-
pie lost nothing through sur
render of their state rights.
Their misgivings were in vain.
The proposal for league of
nations does not offer an exact
parallel to the situation exist
ing here after the revolution
airy war had been fought. The
league of nations now suggest
ed would not have such powers
as our federal constitution ac-
corded to the United States
government. Yet there are
points of similarity between the
two cases. 1t is well in study
ing the present problem to
mark back to the days when
were saying with |
reference to our federal con-
;titution almost the same
.hings some people now say in
opposition to the league of ma |
ions.
The general theory of
eagae of nations to preserve |
'eace in the future is abso-
utely sound. The acceptable
ty of any plan, however, is 60
ng to depend upon the fair
less and wisdom with which it

he various nations the surren-
er of powers they will be un-
7illing to give up. The whole
lbject, however, is worthy of

Ieration because the plan is
lhasically correct. Through
such procedure as this and
only in this way has disarma-
ment been brought about in
the past. Only through an in
iternational league with con-
'stabulary powers can future
wars be abolished. A league
of this character is certain to
be formed sometime. In many
respects the present time is ap-
propriate for the reason that
the victorious allied govern
ments are in full control of the
world, are in harmony with
each other and should be able
to agree upon a league plan
that will work. successfully.
