the peace, and that thereafter there
VIII be peace in the world, and that i
any disturbance or difficulty of any kline
arises high judicial tribunal will set
tie that according to the principles O
law and of equity, and that thereupor
peace, good will and happiness will
reign throughout the world. Now, that
is about the way the League of Nations
was presented to us. Most men had il
mind that it was something like the
Hague tribunal, that was TO be a judiC
ial tribunal and to settle differences be
tween nations by amicable arrangement
without any attempt to enforce its de.
creeS by force of arms And so this
document was brought over to us and
our people Were led to accept it anG
did naturally accept All over the
country the people We're tired of war
men and women had given their sons
| fathers had gone there was sorrow ir
| the hearts of our people, and they said
If this will stop war. we are for it
! Well, of course, they were for it. Anc
! then they tried TO rush it through. w,
were to accept it without scarcely read
( ing it. Demand was made that it Shoul,
! be passed within few days time, al
most without debate and without con
sideration. There were some people
who thought they had better read tha
document and know what was within
! the four corners of it. Now, l am her,
to say to you that instead of setting III
the kind of tribunal that you have beel
led to believe it would set up. iudicia
tribunal, to settle questions according tC
I q. ,,,<I..
have set UP a political tribunal that will
be controlled not by the principles of
law or the principles of equity, but by
the interests of the nations concerned.
| make that statement in advance,
and l purpose to prove it if my time
will permit.
No Limitations
Second, [ say to you that in this or
SANITATION. as it is created, there is nc
| limitation upon its power and upon its
authority except the right of a natiol
or the power of a nation to secede an,
go out of it.
Third, that it does set up a super
government of the world; that whoeve
controls that super government of th
world controls the destiny and fate o
the United States.
Fourth, that it invades our constitu
ton not once, but many times, an'
that, in principle, it is a sacrifice of al
those things the fathers fought for an,
gained in the great Revolution; and
/ Soviet Government
Fifth, that it undertakes to set up
Soviet Labor government of the worl
that will have the power and authority
e ,Nft
instrument, and if we cooperate to tn
extent of passing a law or entering int
a convention which it may recommend
will give to this body the right at tn
complaint of any labor organization
the world, TO investigate labor cond.
| tions here in this country and punis
the United States OF America by the dc
| cree of three men, not one of whom i
an American citizen. Now, it is i'm
possible to discuss this question an
| prove your case as you go along and q
| it within the space of time that ha
been allotted to me or that your pat
ence may allot to me. You see the diff
erence is this: When l make state
ment l have got to prove my case; whe
any of these other fellows make state
ment all they have to do is 10 see a Wis
ION or dream a dream, and that is tn
end of it. Laughter and applause.
