to league Of nations which would UNI
dertake to hold the new balance OF
power steady against external disturb
ance.
It must be evident to every one who
understands what this war has
wrought In the opinion and temper OF
| the world, that no general peace, no
peace worthy Of infinite sacrifices of
these years of tragical suffering can
possibly be arrived at in any such
fashion. The method which the Ger
man chancellor proposes is the meth
cd Of the Congress of Vienna.
Peace Of World 10 at Stake.
What is at stake now is the peace
of the world. What we are striving
| for is new international order based
| on broad and universal principles Of
right and justfce-no mere peace of
shreds and patches. Is It possible
that Count Won Hertling does not see
that. does not grasp it. is in fact living
in his thought in a world dead and
gone? Has he utterly forgotten the
Reichstag resolution OF the nineteenth
of July or does he deliberately ignore
them? They spoke Of the conditions
of general peace, not of national ag-
grandizement, or of arrangements be-
tween state anu state.
The peace of the world depends up
on the just settlement of each of the
several problems to which | adverted
in my recent address to the congress.
| of course, do not mean that the
peace of the world depends upon the
acceptance of any particular set of
suggestions as to the way in which
those problems are to be dealt with
mean only that those problems, each
and all, affect the whole world, that
unless they are dealt with in a spirit
of unselfishness and unbiased justice,
with view to the wishes, the natural
connections, the racial aspirations, the
security and peace and mind of the
peoples involved, no permanent peace
will have been attained.
Cannot BE Discussed Privately
They cannot be discussed separately
or In corners. None of them consti-
tutes private or separate interest
from which the opinion of the world
may be shut out. Whatever affects
the peace affects mankind, and Moth
ing settled by military force, if settled
wrong, is settled at all. 1t will pres
emily have to be re-opened.
Is Count Won Hertling not aware
lndt ne IS speaking III Tue court Oh
mankind, that all the awakened ma
tons of the world nov sit in judg-
ment on whatever public men of what
ever nation, may say on the issues of
conflict which has spread to every
region OF the world?
The Peoples Have Rights
The Reichstag resolutions of July
themselves frankly accepted the de.
cisions of that court. There shall be
no annexations, no contributions, no
punitive damages. Peoples are not
to be handed about from one soyer
eighty to another by an International
conference. or an understanding be-
tween rivals and antagonists.
National aspirations must be respect.

he can not expect that to be conceded

czernln's View.
Count Czernin seems to see the
fundamental elements of peace with
clear eyes and does not seek to OBJ
scure them. He sees that an indie
pendent Poland made up of all indis-
putably Polish peoples who lie con-
tiguous to one another is matter of
European concern, and it must of
course be conceded that Belgium
| must be evacuated and restored, no
| matter what sacrifices and conces-
sions that may involve; and that ma
| tional aspirations must be satisfied,
even within his own empire, In the
common interest Of Europe and man
kind.
Ii he is silent about questions which
touch the interest and purpose of his
allies more nearly than they touch
those of Austria only, it must of
course be because he feels con-
strained, l suppose, to defer to Ger
many and Turkey in the circum.
stances.
Austria Fears Germany.
Seeing and conceding as he does,
the essential principles involved and
the necessity of candidly applying
them, he naturally feels that Austria
can respond to the purpose Of peace,
as expressed by the United States
with less embarrassment than could
Germany. He would probably have
gone much farther had it not been for
the embarrassment of Austria's alli-
ances and Of her dependence upon
Germany.
The Principles that Apply.
After all, the test of whether 1t Is
possible for either government to go
any further in this comparison of
views. is simple and obvious. The
principles to be applied are these:
l. That each part OF the final set
SieuleHt must 10 UdSeu upon tue eS-
sential justice Of that particular case
and upon such adjustments as are
most likely to bring peace that will
be permanent
g. That peoples and provinces are
not to be bartered about from SOW
ereignty to sovereignty as If they
were mere chattels and pawns in a
game, even the greater game. now for
ever discredited of the balance of
power; but that:
g. Every territorial settlement in
volved in this war must be made in
the interest and for the benefit of
the populations concerned and not as
a part of any mere adjustments or
compromise of claims amongst rival
states; and

On The Boards

One OF the most important theatrical
announcements that has been made in
some time, is that George V. Hobart's
modern morality comedy drama, Eek
perience," comes to this city direct
from It's sensational success in San
Francisco. where the play has broken
all records for attendance. There are
eighty-two noted players in the com.
pany and in the Golden Cabaret scene,
there Is large light opera chorus.
The play is given In ten brilliant and
spectacular scenes. Experience" was
one of the notable successes in the
East and ran for nine months in New
York. Ave months in Boston, seven
months in Chicago and five months in
Philadelphia. In all of these cities,
,as we'll as in San Francisco, the clergy
attended in body to see the play
and gave it their absolute approval

rulers
We VIII Not Turn Back
Whatever the difficulties and pres
ent partial delays. we are indominable
in our power of independent action,
and can in no circumstance consent TO
live in a world governed by intrigue
and force.
We believe that our own desire for
a new international order, under which
reason and justice and the common in
terest OF mankind shall prevail, is the
desire OF enlightened men everywhere.
Without that new order, the world will
be without peace, and human life will
lack tolerable conditions of existence
and development. Having set our lia nd
to the task of achieving it, we shall
not turn back.

vantage of any internal weakness or
disorder to impose our own will upon
another people. She is quite ready to

can not see her way to peace until
the causes of this war are removed, its

Small Nations Suffered.
This war had its roots in the disre-
Gard of the rights of small nations and
OF nationalities which lacked the I'M
ion and the force to make good their
claims to determine their own alleg-
iances and their own forms Of poltti-
cal life. Covenants must now be en-
tered into which will render such
things impossible for the future and
those covenants must be backed by
the united force of all the nations that
love justice, and are willing to main
tain it at any cost.
