But even in Germany, Italy and Japan, in his view, the bulk of the people can and will make their desires for peace felt in high government circles, if only they can be led to understand that peace is possible and that the other countries of the world are pre- pared to work actively for it. Mr. Hull has a private “white hst” of thirty- five countries which he would like to see aligned solidly behind the idea of preserving peace by honorable means. At times he is discouraged at the lack of unity and cross purposes which seem to divide the ranks of this peace battalion. But he still hopes and believes that these nations can achieve a unit- ed front, to which all other countries would be invited and urged to adhere, for treaty ob- servance and pacific means of settling dis- putes. The Secretary of State has been careful not to say that this country will or will not fight under sufficient provocation. He is convinced that there is no reason for fighting and hopes that there never will be. But he has fresh enough recollections of his early life in a coun- try town to recall that the village bully is not put in his place by the firm knowledge that no one is going to call his bluff The international bully, Mr. Hull is con- vinced, will only be encouraged by such as- surances. In democracies popular opinion is alreaay behind the principles Mr. Hull advocates, he things, and only their leaders prevent the countries from making common cause in favor of peace. He expects the recent spread of in- ternational lawlessness to convince these de- mocratic rulers that they must get together on a policy looking to peace as a positive and precious thing. Economic restoration must be the central pillar of any peace edifice, as the Secretary of State sees the problem. As material wel- fare spreads through the peaceful part of the world, the inhabitants of the martial nations would be forced to the conclusion that war is not_as attractive a method of attaining pros- perity as their leaders had held it out to be. In the meantime, the thirty-five standard bearers must hold together in insisting, in a firm but friendly manner, that Japan, Gel man, Italy and other potential treaty- breakers are expected to live up to their ob- ligations as well as any one else. There is no reason to believe, from Mr. Hull's present attitude, that he would hesi- tate to ask Congress for such authority if the need arose, or that he would be unwilling to abide by the referendum the ensuing debates would provide. It is evident he does not con- sider the Administration’s hands are tied be- fore the Brussels gathering holds its first session, The American program, which Mr. Roose- velt apparently would like to make a little more positive than his Secretary of State con- ceives it to be, but on which there is no basic agreement, is not a blind support of the status quo. Mr. Hull is quite prepared to see change in the world, provided it is peaceful change. He has not lost heart over the economic fun- damentals which are thought to be the bases of current unrest. Almost twenty years ago he delivered an ouwstanding speech in the House of Repre- sentatives dealing with, equality of opportun- ity in the former German colonies as an al- ternative to restoring them to German politi- cal sovereignty. The ideas he advanced in that address sound even more applicable to the present situation than they were to the conditions which prevailed as he spoke. He hopes that the collective good sense of the world will see to it, before it is too late, that injustices are rectified and inequalities of opportunity smoothed. out. As a start on this course the world must set its face toward peaceful and honorable rela- tions among its nations. Countries must as- sume uncompromising responsibility for their Howard D.
