jurisdiction over all purely international
disputes as defined by the international
code.
This plan is not in opposition to
other plans. 1t is necessary to the full
fllment of other peace plans. but it
roots deeper than them all. 1t is basic !:
You cannot disarm unless you outlaw
war Unless war be outlawed, nations
must be armed, just as men must carry
arms wherever murder is the rule. We
cannot really do away with secret di.
plomacy unless we outlaw war. Secret
diplomacy is the handmaiden of war.
When war is outlawed the principal
reason for secrecy will fail.
Manufacture OF Munitions
You cannot abolish the manufacture
of munitions for profit except by out
having war. When war ceases and
powder is used for the peaceful pur-
suits of commerce and the fields, dol
lars will not flow so readily from the
shedding of blood. Machinery for in
ternational cooperation cannot achieve
peace in world which sanctions war

which stop short of abolishing war as

suggest the abolition of war as a
legal system, to be accomplished by
three steps, each simple. These three
conabined constitute, in my opinion, the
essentian prerequisite. the three steps
which must be taken, whatever other
steps We take or machinery we adopt,
u war 10 to be eliminated. They are:
l. That war be outlawed and de.
flared crime, under the law of ma.
tons, and that its use as a means of
settlement of disputes be abolished.
?. That conference of civilized ma.
items be held for the creation and codi-

II we kept Ia mind that our purpose
Is to abolish war 1t ID plain that physi-
cal force, which In war or it's equiva.
lent, cannot be used for that purpose.
You cannot abolish war BY making war.
2. Physical force, or war, as q sys-
tenn of settling disputes has been the
colossal inefficiency Of all time. Shall
we confess that man who hss chained
the forces of nature, who has organ.
lied society into nations and has built
up individual law, is incapable of ex-
tending law to world problems 30 as TO
abolish this destructive evil? 1, for
one, shall never yield to that counsel Of
despair: 1t can be done, but 1t cannot be
done through the means which all his
tory has shown to be the gigantic fail
ure, through physical force itself.
3. Faith and confidence. not physical
force. have been at the basis Of most
international relations in recent CEN
turtles, so far from being visionary to
claim that the world court can enforce
its DEGREES By international public
opinion, 1t Is upon that precise basis
that most Of the treaties made between
nations in recent centuries have been
built. Treaties based upon mutual
agreement have covered the great sub.
Jeet of immigration, postal system,
Boundaries and trade rights. These
agreements have been based upon moth.
ing but mutual consent, and yet with
rare exceptions they have been OBJ
served The very outcry against the
entry Of Belgium by Germany indicated
the belief OF the civilized world In
maintaining faith. These treaties are
made and observed between parties, one
OF which often could not possibly use
force to secure her rights. Thus Den.
mark could never enforce By physical
means a treaty with the United States,
nor Uruguay with England, Asking
for treaty to be enforced by faith
and confidence and not by physical
means must be war is therefore far
from visionary. The only force which
carries out the DEGREES Of the United
states supreme court between, the diff
ferent states iss this intent to observe
the law. this non-physical force. For
centuries the affairs Of nations have
been regulated by treaties unenforce-
able by physical power, and the promo
sition to abolish war by treaty is mere
~ proposition to use this simple
method OF agreement so widespread and
90 usually observed to rid mankind of
Its greatest common enemy.
How VIII this come to pass? 1t will
come to pass just as the declaration

10 enforce international law, we can
not be completely certain. A simple
international conference can take the
first indispensable step through q treaty
outlawing war and the machinery can
not be properly sketched In detail un-
til that step is taken. When society
declared that murder was q crime, men
then evolved procedure to enforce the
law. When Thou shalt not kill' was
written, there were no constables, no
courts. When society declares that
war 10 murder, that war 10 criminal,
we shall evolve the procedure to enforce
the law. Murder had to be declared q
crime before the machinery developed.
Before we can evolve machinery with
entire defniteness for the abolishing OF
war as a settlement Of disputes, we
must outlaw war. But when author
lied representatives of the peoples have
made the declaration, the machinery
will be built. The declaration must
come before the procedure can be
evolved completely. In its hnal form
IL may differ somewhat from anything
now contemplated, but men will build
the machinery II once they declare the
law. The machinery must include the
court with jurisdiction, and the con-
vention to codify and create interna-
tional law.
