On Policing the World

The current suggestions be-
ing made at the United Ma
tons concerning an Interna-
tional Police Force embody the
principles of a plan for the
Enforcement of Peace in the
Americas" submitted to the
Eighth International Confer
ence of American States which
convened at Lima, Peru, on
December 9. 1888. This plan
was written by my father, the
late Charles T. Malone, and
was presented to Cordell Hull,
then Secretary of State.
I suggest that it be known
as the Charles Malone Plan
for the Enforcement of Peace.
My fathers plan recon-
n1ended that the American
countries form two leagues, the
league of North American ma
tons and the league of South
American nations.
1t recommended that the
nations which Joined the re-
spectiye leagues agree to reduce
their armed forces, and that
one half of the armed forces
remaining after the reduction
be placed at the disposition of
the league to which each be-
longs.
1t recommended that each
member nation be allowed to
send two delegates to what
might be called the Council of
the League, and that the as
sembled delegates choose an
outstanding person to act as a
judge in all matters in dispute,
the delegates to act as jurors
in each matter brought before
them, and requiring a two
thirds vote Of the eligible jurors
before the league may acC. The
judge would have no voice in
the matter. his duties being
those of a judge in any trial
court.
1t recommended that dis
putes be presented by delegates
from the complaining nation or
nations, and be defended by
delegates of the nation or ma
tons complained against If
such nations are member or
by two representatives Of each
nonmember nation in the event
either party to the dispute is q
nonmember nation. In the
event Of disputes arising in
volving member nations, dele
gates Of such nations would be
eligible to sit as jurors.
1t recommended that the
Council be enabled to call upon
the armed forces Of member
nations allotted to league serv-
ice for police duties when
necessary for the purpose Of
enforcing its mandates; and
that it be empowered TO call
upon member nations for such
additional armed forces deemed
necessary. In this connection
1t is recommended that the
leagues maintain what might
be called war colleges" for
the training Of officers Of the
armed forces Of member ma
tons.
II recommended that the
leagues have no power to inter-
vene in the internal affairs Of
any nation. member or nom
member--but that their police
powers be restricted 70 inter-
national disputes.
The nations Of Europe. Asia.
and Africa could each set up
such individual leagues. and
al such leagues could be tied
into a real World League with
a council capable Of calling
upon the armed forces Of the
continents involved for the en-
forcement Of It's mandates.

again dare to challenge
their Communist masters. The
greatest encouragement that.
the United States could give
these people would be the hope
of asylum here for those who
have fought bravely but lost.
One of the first acts of the new
Congress should be to admit to
the United States those refu-
gees who fought to overthrow
communism. These people will
make fine citizens.
