and other forms of relief have been
literally bestowed. But there are some
rudimentary principles of our govern
ment that should be borne in mind
when talking of war, to which Secre-
tary Hughes calls attention.
Gas you are probably aware"
wrote Mr.. Hughes, the executive has
no authority to go beyond this, and
there has been no action by Congress
which would justify this government
in an attempt by armed forces to paci-
fy the Near East or to engage in acts
of war in order to accomplish tire re-
suits you desire with respect to the in
habitants Of that territory and to de-
termine the problems which have
vexed Europe for generations"
mfr. Hughes goes to the root of the
matter. The conflict between the
Christian European nations and the
