One Month, Daily and Sunday - The Pedestrian aid the Car A lady returned home from a downtown shop- ping trip and while in a frame of mind, no doubi common enough, set down her impressions on paper and sent them to her favorite newspaper. Here they are. They will fit almost an) ty in the land: “No such being as a j is a dignity long sin gernauts of the str y-walker exists.

High Court of Nations American statesmen who have favored the idea of a high court of nations or an internat- ional tribunal of arbitration for the adjudica- tion of controversies between nations and as a means of preventing war, have never set up the claim of originating the idea. Men like Taft, Root, Hughes, Harding,’ Coolidge, and the many others, have to an extent elaborated the idea and favored its establishment. The idea, itself, is possibly of mare ancient date than there is any record of, for we are told there is nothing new under the sun, and surely some wise man away back in the day before written history, saw ‘the futility of war and expressed his opinion of i The argument for such a court as President Harding proposed and would have sponsored. had he lived, made by John Noble at a meeting of the “National Association for the Promotion of Political Science,” held at Edinburg in 1863, ‘is as good today, in present circumstances, as it was in the day he so clearly set it forth in his paper on “An International Congress and Tri- bunal for the Prevention of War.” At the time Mr. Noble read his paper the American Civil War was raging and Europe had had a surfeit of conflict in the years preceding, and the same thought was uppermost in the At the time, there was lacking a sufficiently strong power to put the idea into effect, provided in- ternational relations had been such as to make it possible. Nations are closer together in this day and transportation and communication much improved over 1863, and it is now a much more favorable time in the world’s history to establish such an institution as suggested. A summary of Mr. Noble’s paper is here given: “After some introductory remarks on the evils connected with war, Mr. Noble proceeded to say that his object was not so much to enlarge on those evils as to suggest a practical and effective remedy, viz., the substitution of arbitration for war. If, at the conclusion of a war, negotiation. and even arbitration, were found necessary, why not provide an effective means of arbitration to prevent the effusion of blood? The constitu- tion of a tribunal competent to deal with inter- national disputes, whose authority would be maintained by the common consent of all civil- ized governments, would be a most important problem and governments would act more wise- ly in solving it than in augmenting their arma- ments. “Were a tribunal provided to which internat- ional differences could be referred, the result would be io infuse a spirit of moderation into the councils of nations, and thus to act as a powerful preventive of war. Why, then, not in- sist upon the constitution for this purpose of a. high court of nations? Such a court ‘of represen- taitves, deputed by the various civilized govern- ments, composed of statesmen eminent for their knowledge of international law, for the wisdom and moderation of their counsels, and for the integrity with which they would pursue their functions, would form a tribunal to which any question in dispute might with safety be refer- red. Constituted by common consent, its deci- sions would be treated with universal respect and the entire moral force of Europe would be enlisted in its support. The functions of such 2 court would be strictly confined to international disputes and he thought the friends of peace in all countries should urge upon their respective governments the assembling of a congress, whose task should be the formation of such an internat- ional tribunal, and, where necessary, the amend- ment of international law. “The objections Mr. Noble anticipated to the proposal in question were that it was impractic- able; that it would be impossible to insure its ef- ficient working; that nations would be found who wonld refuse to obey its judgments, and that war would still continue to exist. He briefly com- bated these objections and proceeded to say that among the numerous advantages of the proposed scheme not the least would be the fact that, by appealing to a judicial tribunal nations would be more moderate and just in their demands, the quarrel heing removed from the domain of force to that of morals. Another advantage would be found in an arrangement that would certainly flow from the realization of this plan for a mu- tual reduction of armaments, and nations would cease from the present senseless rivalry, and divert a large proportion of those energies now worse than wasted upon instruments of destruc- tion into peaceful channels.” es Ss, st cup that ise blend brought from where the choicest coffees are grown.
