 Do you remember in the days when Monroe twas President of the United States, in 1923, he formulated doctrine? It was not a threat sent to the nations of the Europe directly,
 but it was message sent to the Congress of the United States, yet it amounted to a practical notice to the
 nations of Europe, very much like
 this notice in Article 10. Monroe, in that famous message, said in sub- stance that the United States would nation of Europe to endeavor to es- tablish it's system Or its colonies i'll the western hemisphere.
 That proclamation of Monroe was

That is what the | just as strong and just as direct, in a little more diplomatic way as that in ! Article 10. And what was the effect, l ladies and gentlemen, of that notice through the Congress of the United l States to the nations of Europe? The l effect was to stop every European | nation from every scheme Of con
 quest n the western hemisphere. And
 while that doctrine was criticised in l it's time by the same class of men 1 that crIticise Article 10, that doctrine announced by Monroe has never cost 1 the United tSates a dollar or a man. l ,r-4o ~f Trrcr SnC

Captain Chamberlain said in part:
 This issnot the first time l have had the pleasure of speaking to an audi ence on the League of Nations. A year ago, while still wearing a uni- form, spoke to President Taft. He had explained the League of Nations fully. The. temperature was very high. There was little or no inclina- ton to listen to me and the audience was departing. I shared the feeling that the meeting was over. Not so, the chairman. He shook his fists from the footlights and cried: Ladies and Gentlemen: We have here man who has been through hell for us and we l ought to be willing to do the same for him.
 | Today there are certain gentlemen going up and down the country pro- nouncing the obituary on the League of Nations, but if yous will take the time to see what is actually happen ing in Europe you will find the League alive, very much alive. It is working and working successfully Forty two nations have joined the League and standing on the outside is this quartet i-revolutionary Mexico, Bolshevist Russia, unspeakable Turkey and the United States. Is there any American i citizen who can be proud of that as- | Sociation?

It is the testimony of the prime ministers o1 both Finland and Sweden that there Iwou1d have been a war over the Allant l Islands dispute had it not been fol 1 the League.

THE TIMES: TUESDAY, OCTOBER F, ls2o7


 That is the pledge, that is the prom1se,s every nation makes; that IS the promise Al nations have made to each other that have already. gone into the a. league; and that +dfes is the is asked to make, and that has been distorted into meaning that if we make that promise foreign council can, by a majority vote, order out our army or navy to take part in
 Now, the second sentence gives the lie to this misrepresentation. It is as follows:
 'In case of any such aggres-
 sion, 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"
 In other words, there is only one way for that obligation to be fulfill ed. It cannot be fulfilled by any na- ton going voluntarily. to the aid of another. It cannot be fulfilled by the league or anybody in the league ordering any nation to come to the aid of an attacked country. It can only be fulfilled by a meeting of the nine nations composing the council, of which we are one, and only then by the action that the council takes, and that council cannot order. All it can do is advise.
 Now then, can any intelligent man deny that the United States holds an absolute veto on any action of the council, even to the extent of advis- ing what action should be taken? Can any intelligent man deny that if the council gives the advice, it must give it by a unanimous vote, because that is provided in Article Five in the CO., venant of the League? Can any intel ligent man deny that when that ad-
 
 of the League for itself to decide whether it will take that advice or not?
 That is Article 10, and yet that Article has been nisre presented and distorted and American women have been told that their sons would be ordered out to fight the battles of the world by the command of a foreign power, or that we might be outvoted by foreign powers and ordered to dc so. think, perhaps, for this occa- sion I am getting a little too violent or jealous. I feel so strongly on the subject, however, that believe the time has come when the American that they are to decide this thing ought to know the truth and ought to brand as falsehoods the misrepre- sentations which are made about gre intended for no other purpose than to preserve the peace of the world and put a stop to war. Now if we can put a stop to wars arising out of disputes, by this plan of arbitration and inquiry, and if we can put stop to wars of conquest by this solemn agreement of the na- tions that they will respect and pre- l serve by united action the territoria integrity and existing political inde- pendence of all nations, haven't we put a stop to war? Where are wars to come from, if they do not come out of disputes and do not come out of conquest?
 I want to refer to an action by the United States, in it's day of tremen- dous importance, which was very much in line with this Article 10 tha1 I have just read to you. In this Ar ticle 10 all the nations of the world agree to respect and preserve the territorial integrity and existing DO.

 Now I think l have covered the subject of wars arising out of dis putes, but we all know there are other kinds of wars. There is the war or conquest, the war which smaller nation to get it's territory or destroy its independence. How shall that be met?
