nations are already bound by its
provisions which they cannot ig-
more without violating their signed

destroy the present league; it can
not build up wholly new league,

The foregoing view is expressed
by one who has no connection with
Americas political controversy
but brings out a new point
namely that far from going on the
rocks because America didn't en-

draw together the nations OF the
world and much of the preliminary
work of organization has already
been accomplished. This sum.
