THE MAGMA CHARTA OF THE WEAk
(NeW York WorId.D

. the league of nations has been subjected tC such passionate attack as Article \; yet Ar tiCle X represents the longest step iorWarO that has ever been taken in international re lationships. It is the Magma Charta of tn, small nations; for it lays down the rule tha wars shall not be undertaken for purpose O conquest.
 Most of its critics, while they may halt read it, have apparently never studied it O sought to understand its meaning, yet it is plain statement of principle, as any one Whc is reasonably familiar with the European language can see for himself
 The members of the league under
 take to respect and preserve as against
 external aggression the territorial mteg-
 rity and existing geological independence
 of all members of the league. In case
 of any such aggression or in case of any
 threat or danger of such aggression, the
 council shall advise upon the means by
 which this obligation shall be fulfilled.
 Mir. Root and Mir. Hughes are in lavo of striking out this article from the covenant which would be equivalent to striking "'Thol
 
 Such action on the part of the senate could mean neither more nor less than a declaration that as matter of principle, altho not neCes Sarily as matter of eNpedenCV the American people believe in wars of conquest and tha they have no inherent objection to the de struCtlon of the territorial integrity and th political independence of nations that are no Stro tp tr,,tl powerful and unsCrupuIous neighbors
 The alternative to Article is PrusSian ism. Either we are against wars of ConqucS or we are not, and if we are against them our antagOnism matters little unless we ar ready to make 1t effective
 Article x is the embodiment of the grea lesson of this terrible conflict. which began q a war of aggression on the part of a power full country against a weak country Nov that 100000 men have been killed, 25,OOO, GOO or 3OOOOOOO more have been maimed fo life $2OO,OOO,O in property destroye, and vast nations have been wrecked, tn critics of the league of nations insist tha whatever else 1t tries to do the league mus not seek to do the one thing that would aver a repetition of this disaster. Privately we ar still to be permitted to view wars of con quest with disapproVal but this disapproVa must not take the form of concerted actiol which could prevent them.
 Article x is the nobtSt statement of in ternational policy that came out of the peaC conference For the first time the great ma tions are committed to the vital principles o the Declaration of lndependenCe and who ever really believes that the individual Ina an unalienable right to life, liberty and tn pursuit of happiness must likewise believ that the nation to which the individual bt longs has similar rights.
 When the attacks on Article x are sift ed down they reduce themselves to this: Tha a league of nations might properly cOncer1 itself with any of the causes of war except th most infamous cause and that above every thing else 1t must not concern itself with thu causes of the war that has all but reduce, civilization to chaos.
