Dcmocracy's Responsibility

~AONAoNJ . ANNoPOAAcACAAky
Much has been said about the
duties Of the new diplomacy to de
mocracy F.lihu Root, in his lucid
speech in the state Of Hiram Jchn-
son, shifts the viewpoint and empha-
sizes the duties Of democracy to the
new diplomacy.
Publicity brings dangers. Look
ing at the human animal as he ls
and ignoring what he should be and
may become, certain psychological
traits are easily discernibe. One Of
these. as noted by Mr Root, is that
men are not prone to change their
minds when once they have publicly
committed themselves. They shrink
from charges Of inconsistency or in
stability. Yet a controversy must be
dealt with. at least in its first stages,
by agents. IT is wise to allow these
agents some opportunity to get to-.
gcther before focusing the spotlight
on frozen minds.
Mr.. Root, completing his thought,
might also have mentioned that
masses of men have the emotion Of
the football field. They support their
champions, and stubbornness on one
side naturally begets stubbornness
on the other A herd instinct stsm-
pedes pacific peoples into demands
for war. Paris wildly applauded
when one emperor in 1870 decided
on war against Germany, and Berlin
shouted with JOY when another EN-
peyor in 1914 procla lmed that he had
unsheathed his sword.
The old-school diplomacy is cur
rently believed to have steadily III
. tlieued for war, but were 4 census
possible it would probably show that
diplomats more often prevented than
promoted war. Democratic control.
alas. does moi guarantee peace. The
sound of the big tum, at least when
first heard, stii< the pulses. Not
until the crippled and the gassed
come back l.; there commonly q
change Of mood.
SO Mr.. Root, speaking to the con-
stituents Of Senator who does not
! sufficiently see the consequences Of
fostering suspicious and hates, is not
satisfied with merely euloglzlng the
! new machinery for the resolution Of
disputes. He places squarely ly before
democracy its greatly enlarged re
sponsibilities. The public man who
stirs up animosity against another
people is mcst menacing pest. He
does not serve his own country. The
same is true Of newspapers, though
they plaster their pages with flags
and boast of their patriotism. De
mocracy's new function demands
more thought Of what other peoples
think when they discover themselves
assailed in another land.
An excess of prudence is not to be
feared. 1t is still true, as the first
Napoleon remarked. that what one
people does not like in another peo-
pie is the other people. With inflam
mables scattered about, special effort
against striking matches is neces
sary. At the polls or by withhold
ing patronage public opinion can eff
fectively squelch Americans who lacl
the wit or the conscience to see wha
follows fermentation Of internationa
, animosity.
