Tails of Its Object*.
In announcing ttae congress ttae gen¬ eral committee makes the following statement as to its objects:
The proiect of a true International court of Justice has b«en aufflciently examined. It waa adopted in principle by the forty- four states composinK tlie second Ha^ue conference (1907). was Inrlorsed by tho In¬ stitute of Inlernational Law (1912). a^d since 1907. has received the hearty support of all the leading powers. Including Oreat Britain and Germany. It han been ex¬ haustively studied at four annual con¬ ferences of the Americaa Society F'or Ju¬ dicial Settlement o; International Disputes and by foreign governments and publi¬ cists. The suggestion haa also met with the approval of state legislatures in the United States, of leading chambers of commerce and of representative religious bodies. Indeed, it is approved by thought¬ ful men ever>wliere.
Practical men dislike to go on talking about projects when their desirability and practicability have been demonsti^ted. They Insist upon seeing them reauized. Tho project of the court Is a mature proj¬ ect. The time haa come to take positive action looking toward its prompt estab¬ lishment at the right moment. That it wlll be a powerful additional factor for the future peace of the world is not doubt¬ ed. That it will build up international law, 80 essential to peaceful relations among men, is equally accepted.
Preaent Methods Weak.
The present unspeakable conflict abroad has brought with H a vivid conception of how unintelligent our present methods are, of how pitifully we lack in the inter¬ national fleld the simplest machinery for the avoidance of conilict such as is pro¬ vided in the internal organization of the state.
With a view to rousing the American public to a consciousness of the possi¬ bilities that lie in tho creation of a true court of Justice for tho nations and de¬ veloping an insistent demand for it, thus
