A plea for establishment of an
international police force to guar
antee fulfillment of world peace and
freedom after the war was pre-
scented in an address by Senator Hill,
Democrat, of Alabama before men,
bers of the Woman's National Dem
ocratic Club yesterday.
THE world has grown too small
for isolationism," the speaker de-
clared, land the United States must
realize that her duty lies in par
ticipating in forming an interna-
tional organization for maintaining
peace throughout the world"
Speaking at the last of the clubs
information hour luncheons this
season, Senator Hill said, "Instan-
taneous communications and rapid
Transportation have given the death
blow to isolationism; in fact, it died
on the day of Pearl Harbor, Decem-
Der 7, l941."
Sustaining our men in winning
the war is not enough, the speaker
continued. We must assure them
also that neither they nor their
sons ever will have to go into an
other war, he added.
"It is our lasting obligation to
make sure we don't lose the peace"
he asserted. I'VE must build
world peace and maintain a world
in which there will be no third
war.
I'VE must abolish international
war by the same processes that we
eliminate strife among other
groups" he asserted I'VE must es-
tablish international machinery to
adjudicate disputes with power to
enforce the judgments"
Former peace efforts have failed
because there has been no power to
enforce the efforts, he declared. The
Senator appealed for support OF the
resolution which he sponsored re-
Gently in the Senate with the sup
port of Senator Joseph H. Ball, Re-
publican. of Minnesota; Senator
Harold H. Burton, Republican, OF
Ohio, and Senator Carl A. Hatch,
Democrat, of New Mexico. This
resolution, he explained, would pro-
vide for an international police
force which would suppress efforts
of an aggressor nation to violate IN
ternational laws.
mo organization is any stronger
than its powers to enforce DEGREES"
he declared. Without force, an ar
bitrating organization becomes de-
batting society"
Senator Hill pointed out how an
effective organization established by
the United Nations with the
kindred idea-love of freedom"
could force an aggreSsor to abandon
any plans which again might dis
rupt the peace of the world,
The United Nations await the
decision of the United States" he
declared. The United States must
speak and speak now. This horror
of war, with its broken youth and
disordered minds. must not face us
again. If we could build this Nation
out of all races of the world, we
can lead the nations into a way in
which they can live in peace and
order. 1t is the responsibility of
every American to make certain that
American boys won't have to jour-
ney away again and that our chill
dren, instead of covering in world
of darkness, can live in world of
light and freedom"
