FIVE POSTULATES FOR
 NEW WORLD ORDER


 NEW WORLD ORDER Vatican City, Dec. 24.-OP)- That part of the text of Pope Plus speech in which he enumerated five postulates for a new world order follows:
 Indispensable prerequisites for such new order are:
 First, victory over hatred which today divides peoples; renunciation therefore of systems and practices from which that hate constantly receives added nourishment. At present in some nations propaganda without limit which openly changes the truth is delivered to public opinion of belligerents day by day, even hour by hour, in an insulting and false light.
 Those who truly desire the welfare of the people, who aim to contri- bute to the salvaging of spiritual and moral bases from incalculable damage to the spiritual and moral principles of the future collaboration of peoples, must consider 1t their sacred duty and high mission not to abandon any thought and sentiment of peoples natural ideas of truth, justice, courtesy and cooperation aimed at the welfare and above all the sublime supernatural ideal of brotherly love which was brought to all men by Christ.
 Secondly, victory over the mis- trust which bears down as a de- pressing weight on international law and renders impossible the re- alization of any sincere agreement. We must return to the principle of justice. We must return to ob- servance of treaties without which 1t is not possible to secure relations among peoples and above all the co-exiStance of strong and weak peoples. Fundamentum autem est justitise fides i'd est dictorum con- ventorum que constantia ct veritas, as ancient Roman wisdom estab- lished.
 T11:rdly, victory over the evil principle that utility is the basis of law and that might makes right. This is the principle which makes all international relations fragile and especially causes grave dam age to those states which, either because of their traditional falsity to pacific methods or because of lesser war potentiality, do not want and cannot compete with others. There fore, there should be return to serious and profound morality in the laws of society of nations, which does not exclude seeking after either honest utility or opportune legi- innate use of force to protect recognized rights threatened by vio- lence or to repair damage done to these rights.
 Fourthly. victory over those germs of conflict which consist in too strongly contrasting divergencies in the field of world economy. There fore, there should be progressive action balanced by corresponding guarantees to reach an arrangement which gives all states the means to ensure citizens of all classes prop CT standard of living.
 F.fthly, victory over the spirit of cold egoism which daringly is sure of its strength and often results in violation of healthy, well-disciplined liberty of citizens as well as the honor and sovereignty of states. It must be replaced by sincere, legal economic solidarity and fraternal collaboration in accordance with the precepts of divine law among na- tions which have their autonomy and independence assured.
 As long as in dire necessity of war, arms make themselves heard it is difficult to expect definite acts which will restore unalterable moral and juridical rights. But it must be hoped that from this moment on 8 statement fundamentally favoring their recognition will be made to calm agitation and bitterness of all those who feel that their existence and freedom in carrying out their work are threatened or jeopardized.
