own path to peace. and thereby set
q practical example to other parts
Of the world.
OF what could there be greater
need today than for the example
given by us here of opening the
door to peace; here by practical
action we have demonstrated that
there can be a common collabora-
ton to this end. Here we have re-
vitalized international law, and
here we have renewed those finer
relationships between nations upon
which, in the last analysis, free
dom. peace. prosperity and civili-
zation itself depend.
In recent years the entire inter-
national order has suffered severe
dislocation; the relations between
nations have become increasingly
confused and chaotic, and human
progress has been INSTRUCTED.
These conditions require prompt
attention and remedy. We must
diminish the dangers attendant
upon conditions of moral isolation
and intensified nationalism. This
we seek to do by encouraging a
worldwide reaffirmation of the
principle of the honorable main
tenance of obligations, of full faith
in the given word and Of fair deal
ing between equal partners. Such
qualities in the conduct of nations
are essential conditions for the bet
terment of their relations and for
the consolidation of peace
And 50, in this last hour. when

ing that we will, individually and
