How to Secure World Peace

war is "ausgeschlossen." ruled out of
the realm of possibility.
X X X
Again, what can and ought we do
in order to secure world peace? The
query rightly predicts that we are
interested in world peace and not
merely in peace for ourselves, and
that the larger hope is accepted by
us as our larger duty. We can do
one thing, make for peace continu-
ously. which is the only way to make
1t sure of secure. Intermittent peace
efforts were tolerable in a world which
knew not that the forces of war never
rested though at times they hasted.
But we will never arise to wise and
persistent peace effort unless we face
two truths, one, ceaselesS war efforts
can be counteracted only, If at all,
by equally persistent and. If possible.
more effective peace efforts. And
the second truth is that, though there
are such things as pre-war machina-
ton and war machinery. there can
be no such thing as automatic peace
engineery.
The effort to make world peace Sc
cure may from time to time embody
itself in certain types of national and
international machinery to be ener-
gized by the power of the living will.
X X v X
But over and beyond all else, a
living will to peace must direct any
and all peace machinery whether as
sembled at Geneva or dissembled at
Versailles. That is my answer to the
question oft leveled at one who is
frankly an Internationalist, do you not
think that America has taken a real
step forward internationally by en-
tering into the World Court? Yes, a
step forward. But, that is all. The
worst thing that could happen to
America would be if it should come
to pass that our entry into the World
Court discharges our international oh
legations. Our advent into the World
Court must token the assumption of
world obligations.
Our country's participation in the
World Court can no more make world
peace secure than can the League of
Nations. For each of these is no
more than an organism to be vitalized
and energized by the nations leagued
together under one aegis or another
1t cannot be repeated too often that
the machinery of war may be trusted

suit is null; a sensible provision. The
number of qualified voters in Ger
many is about 40, 1000 900. Though H.
$50 900 voted for the proposal and
only 542 900 against, the proposal died
because not enough votes were cast.
Those who voted contra showed ex-
cess of zeal, as they would have ac-
complished just as much by staying
at home.
The following is a translation of
the text of the proposal:
THE German people, through popu-
lar initiative and referendum, decree
the following law:
1.-The entire fortunes of the princes
who ruled in the German states at the
time of the revolution of 1918, and the
entire fortunes Of the princely houses
and their members, are confiscated
without compensation in the interest
of the general welfare.
1.-THE confscated property is to be
used to aid (a) the unemployed. OBJ
the war invalids and the war widows
and orphans; tc) those dependent upon
the public: I'D the needy victims OF
the imitation; (e) the agricultural Ia
borers, tenants and peasants, through
the creation of freeland from the con-
fiscated estates.
1.-THE castles, residences and other
buildings are to be used for general
welfare, cultural and educational pur-
poses, especially for convalescnt hos
pitfalls and homes for war invalidS, for
widows and orphans. and for the So

cure.
In one respect, we were better off
than other nations. They feared war,
chiefly because they knew that any
arena of war might touch half the
lands of Europe. They knew some.
what more than we did concerning
the battling difficulties of peace, which
had not really returned to Europe
since the crime of 1901. They knew
almost as little about ourselves as we
did. And now our positions are be-
come more nearly parallel. We, too,
know war and we hate it, perhaps
should say despise it with sturdy
and wholesome contempt. American
youth. despite the jingoes big and lit
tie, organized and unorganized, Venal
and mad, is under no illusions with re-
Spect to war.
Less clear are our minds with re-
spect to peace though we know the diff
ference between the glorified and per-
petuated armistice terms of Versailles
and a peace pact worthy of the name.
Our power for war we know, because
we have exercised it. Our power for
peace we do not quite know, because
nearly 10 years after the armistice it
still remains uneXerted. AS we think
upon it, that power for peace grows
out of the weakness of the nations,
the strength of ourselves and the I'M
composed state of the nations.
!. X X x
And now, these preliminary obser-
vations out of the way. we must reso-
lutely face the problem, What can we
do to secure world peace? That we
desire n renewal of war is unthink-
able. 1t is far less difficult for us to
keep peace" than for any other ma
ton on earth. No other people are as
remote from it's equals and as over
whelmingly powerful in regard to its
neighbors as are we. We cannot go
to war with our continental neighbors,
the dominion OF the North or the re-
public of the South. without being
false to the promise of 100 years and
more of peace with English speaking

two decades ago, is far behind the
nations of Europe in it's commercial
use of aircraft. Unaided by the Gov
eminent, civil aviation has been left
to struggle along as best it may. The
struggle has been long and, generally
speaking, is at distinct disadvan-
tage as compared with the govern
ment subsidized services of our sis
ter nations across the Atlantic. AL
though civil aviation in this country
has been left to cope with its own
problems without aid from the Gov
eminent, foreign nations have shown
the keenest interest in aiding their
nationals to develop air transporta-
ton. Foreign nations, both great and
small, have gone far ahead of this
country in commercial aircraft de-
vel0pment.
America has nothing approaching
the London-Paris aerial service, which
carries passengers and light freight
swiftly and on schedule between the
two great European capitals.
Great Britain, France, Germany,
Italy, Belgium, Holland, Denmark,
Sweden and Russia have sought, with
out exception, to place civil aviation
on a permanent basis. Total SUBJ
sides for aircraft transportation Of
England, France and Holland for
1924, at the current rate of exchange,
amounted to about three million
dollars.
Even though foreign nations have
gone far ahead Of the United States

transportation, leaders In the move
ment to extend aircraft use here see
reason to hope for an even greater
development in this country. Condi-
tons in the United States, they say,
are the most favorable in the world
for commercial aviation by reason
of geographical extent, freedom from
customs restrictions, unified political
interests, common business methods,
high living standards and great ac-
tivity in all forms of transportation.
An Adjunct to the Military.
Civil aviation in Europe Is held to
be an indispensable adjunct to the
military services by training pilots
and encouraging research work whose
fruits will be available in times of
national stress. All the leading ma
tons Of Europe have undertaken to
develop commercial aviation because
it is recognized as an indispensable
factor in national defense. Even Co
lombia and other South American
countries, which are notably behind

use. The joint committee declared in
it's report that by January l, 1927,
mileage flown by all air transport
agencies throughout the world will
have been about 100000
America has taken its first step for
ward in civil aircraft development. If
the succeeding moves are undertaken
with the energy and enterprise that
have characterized our other CONNER
cial developments, within a decade
this Nation will lead the entire world
in commercial aircraft use.

admission Of Germany, will patiently
save the Locarno pacts, but 1t will
not accommodate the crisis within the
league, rather it will tend to accentu-
ate the difficulty. Moreover, one must
remember that even if the question
Of permanent seats be postponed there
are six temporary seats to be filled
each year, and thus a struggle can
not be avoided.
The great victor powers, who made
the treaty and the league, assigned
permanent council seats to themselves.
They also undertook to settle the
question of the assignment Of non-per-
manent seats in such fashion as to re-
tain control Of the council. They have
at times quarreled among themselves
and divided the league, but in the
main they have stood together on the
principle that only great powers
should have permanent seats and that
the great powers should control the
league. When Germany comes in,
nothing is more certain than that she
will take a hand at the game: she
may even undertake to gain influence
by becoming the champion of the
small powers.
But so far the league has been able
to act only when the great powers
were agreed, it has been unable to do
anything against the wish of great
power and the attitude of the great
powers toward the league was best
expressed when they went to Locarno,
contracted to admit Germany to the

what more can we do to secure world
peace? Glory in not and shrink from
the commitment which this involves!
OF a nation Isben's word holds as
true as of an individual, he who never
commits himself never expresses MN
self. The business of a nation Is not

All for me! The new patriotism ran,

The query is not national isolation or
international complication, but rather,
out Of Europe or out of war?
And this time in our history en-
hances the obligation which faces us.

take q larger proclamation after five
generations have tested the work of
our fathers and challenged the worth
of their sons? That larger proclama-
ton is to speak peace to them that
are far and to them that are near.
Unless we do all that in us lies

not come to pass. Vastly advantaged

This report was submitted to Con.

on the 14th day of April, 1926, with
approval of tne Shenandoah and
Great Smoky Mountains projects, and
without specific recommendation as
to the Mammoth Cave project. There
upon a bill was introduced in Con-
Sress providing for the establishment
of the Shenandoah and Great Smoky

to the terms and recommendations
embraced in the report of the com.
mission. and there also was intro
duced q bill providing for the estab-
lishment of the Mammoth Cave Ma

conditions prescribed in the report of
the commission as to that project.
These bills were introduced In both
houses, and formal hearings were held
thereon by the HouLe committee on

AT these hearings proponents of the
