 Its object as set forth in the preamble is to promote inter national cooperation and secure international peace and security
 As to whether these ends, so desirable in themselves, can be attained by the adoption of the proposed covenant is a question m winch there will be honest diff ference of opinion. It Is we'll that there shou d be 8 full and free discusston of its various clauses. History undoubtedly proves that constitution to be permanent must be the outgrowth of the fife and experience of the people who adopt it. According to this principle is the proposed constitution sound? Unquestion- ably many of its provisions are the outgrowth of recent world experiences.
 It seeks to introduce into in. ternational affairs that same spirit of cooperation that enabl- ed the allied nations to win the war. To that end it requires of it's members full and frank inter change of information as to mili. tary and naval programmes; il provides for equitable treatment for the commerce of all states it demands that all treaties shall be published and then faithfully observed It's disarmament pro. visions are simply the application to the community of nations, fol their common safety. of the same principles that civilized commu mites have long used for the pro tection of life and property. It. pledge to endeavor to secure and maintain fair and humane conditions of labor for men, we. men and children Is in line with the best social legislation of the
 last century. It's recognition ot the fact that the well.being ant development of the weak anC backward peoples of the earth is { sacred trust of civilization mark, stadium in the moral progres, of humanity. But even this i. not ar altogether new and untried principle in political affairs. The United States in it's relations with Cuba has been governed by this
 inselfish policy and has set an ex. ample for the great and powerful nations of the world. Since so many of the fundamental provis. ions of the proposed constitution for the league of nations are then
 'nly wider application of prin. ciplss, whose practicability has already been proven in national affairs. there is great reason to
 lope we are now on the eve of the adoption of 8 document which future generations will regard as the worlds charter of freedom.
