Mr.. Wilson was called an "ideal

BY Special Washington Correspondent of The

viz IAORSAO4A Va VIC SOA1olltAllO1A,
when it was realized that the
Articles of Confederation had
failed and some stronger union
was needed.
The League which failed,
must be replaced by something
that will work TO prevent a
repetition of these twin disas-
ters-the bitter woe of depres-
sion and the holocaust of war"
Obviously, ''the United Nations
must first have machinery which
can disalm and keep disarmed
those parts of the world which
would break the peace"
Revenge for the sake of re-
venge would be a sign of bar
barism,p says Mr.. Wallace but
this time there must be no mis-
take. The defeated nations must
realize their defeat, be disarmed
and there must be Psychological
disarmament-supervision, or at
least inspection, of the school
systems of Germany and Japan,
to undo as far as possible the
diabolical work of Hitler and the
japanese war lords in poisoning
the minds of the young"
Now. we have a second
chance to erect a lasting struc-
ture of peaee.'"
We must assure "well-planned
and vigorous aetions.
Il Besides the declaration of prin-
! eiples, the United Nations must
find Tap formula which will give
the greatest possible liberty
without producing anarchy and
at the same time will not give so
many rights to each member ma
ftion as to jeopardize the security
of all"
These are general terms, it is
true, but Mr.. Wallace suggests
that "the aim would be to pre-
serve the liberty, equality, Sc
curity and unity of the United
Nations-liberty in a political
sense, equality of opportunity in
international trade. security
against war and business depres-
sion due to international trade,
security against war and business
depression due to international
causes, and unity of purpose in
promoting the general welfare of
the world.
I He wants the maximum of
home rule that can be maintain
ed along with the minimum of
centralized authority that must
come into existence to give the
necessary protection"
= Hs points out that the Unit
cd St-tes- if given guarantees
against economic or military
c-grssion. must not be guilty

We do not present the specific
argument of the Vice-President
in regards to the reasons why
the United States should be will
ing to play its part in the world
wide new democracy which is the
goal of the United Nations in this
present struggle. Nor is it pos
sible, as he says, at this time, to
blueprint the details" but it is
time for, us to begin to think
about the principles that must
