Our duty-is to prepare-for this high ‘destiny, and the path is obvious, since the jncreased ex- change of food products is in- evitable. I submit that the only measure required today for the maintenance of world peace is an agreement among three or four of the leading civilized pow- ers (and as many more as desire. to join—the more the better) pledged to co-operate against dis- .turbers of ‘world peace ‘should such arise, which would scarce- ly. be possible in the face of the partnership agreement sug- .gested. - Man was created to. as- cend and by a'law of hig being must-march upward and onward toward: perfection. .
