been able to ind the way to liberty.
1t ends, once for all, an old and intol-
cradle order under which small gro1ps'
of selfish men could use the people Of
great empires to serve their own am
billions for power and dominion. ,.
It associates the free governments
of the world in a permanent league
in which they are pledged to use their
united power to maintain peace by
maintaining right and justice. It
makes international law q reality, sup
ported by imperative sanctions. It
does away with the right of conquest
and rejects the policy of annexation
and substitutes a new order, under
which backward nations-population
which have not yet come to political
consciousness and peoples who are
ready for independence but not vt
quite prepared to dispense with pro
lection and guidance-shall no moro
be subjected to the domination and,
exploitation Of stronger nation. but!

ton and afforded the helpful assist
ance Of governments which undertake..
to be responsible to the opinion Of
mankind in the execution of their task
by accepting the direction of the
League Of Nations.

ton fxed by public constitutional law,
