The importance and signifi- cance of your work is enhanced by | the recent movement for the re- | nunciation of war as a principle of national policy, which by necessary | to the | | orderly processes leading up to ar- bitration." Furnishes Knowledge Mr. Coolidge regarded “the great value of the plan for arbitration' as Iying “in the fact that it fur- | | nishes knowledge and assurance that | | differences will be adjusted.” If the minor international differences are settled as they arise, he said, “there | |is no fuel to feed the explosive ele- |ments when some difference of |larger fmportance” develops. Thus, e added, two nations which have adjusted all their past disputes will |be on such friendly terms that war between them will be impossible.

The world has the right to expect that the mis- | sion undertaken by the carly states- {men of this continent shall be car- ried to completion. Our history, our national ideals, and the standards | |of our international intercourse make this a solemn obligation.” The text of the president's speech | follow: Gentlemen of the Conference: It is to no ordinary occasion that | I am privileged as president of the | United \States to bld you welcome. There are represented here 21 na- | tions of the western hemisphere, | who have a common purpose to ad- vance the cause of civilization b substituting the obligation of rea- son for the cocrcion of force. It is an effort to raise humanity to a | higher level of existence, where na- tions may dwell together in peace and harmony according to the prin- iples of liherty and equality under the fostering influence of justice and quity. Tt is impossible to conceive |of & more inspiring motive for an |international conference. Here is no shadow of past conflict and no thought of future conquest. All is peace, and all thoughts are bent on establishing a better method through which a higher deg of justice nay be done cach to the other. Orderly Settlement From the earlicst period of their independent existence the Americas have held an advanced position in fhelr advocacy of the orderly settl- ment of international disputes. It is a record calculated to stir the pride of all those who love peace und justice. The world has had no 10re devoted adherents to the prin- lciple of arbitration. The countries |of South America led all the world ‘m their contribution to this cause.

It is a notable and signifi- cant fact that at the first confer- | ence of a Pan American character, held at Panama in 1526, a treaty was signed which declare The contracting partics solemnly | ves amica- | bly to compromise among them-- | selves all differences now existing or which may arise in the future, and in case no settlement can be reach- ed between the disagreeing powers the question shall he taken for set- tlement to the judgment of the as- sembly, whose decision shall, how- not bhe .obligatory unless 1 powers shall have expressly agreed that it shall be.

As early as 1794 in a treaty with Great Britain,| usually referred to as the ‘*Jay Treaty,” it became the privilege of this government to introduce into modern diplomacy the principle of | arbitration, and throughout the pe- riod of nearly a century and a half which has elapsed since that time we have supported our sister repub- lics in upholding this great cause. 1t is a mistake to suppose that it was much easier to adopt concilia- tion and arbitration on the Ameri- can continent because of the absence of any outstanding inter-American disputes. The history of this con- tinent discloses the presence of as large a number of difficult and deli- cate questions as in any other se tion of the world. The uncertaint of the hounda of the Amer states after their successive declara- | tions of independence from ain | and_Portugal gave risc fo a large | number of territorial disputes which | belong to the class usually arousing most deeply rooted national fecling. The fact that most of these have been settled by direct negotiation, conciliation, and arbi- tration will forever be one of the glories of the Americas as well as a | constant reminder that the nations of this continent have dedicated themselves fo the ideals of peace and are willing to exercise the self- control and make the which the maintenance ideals impose: Lists Nations Some of the countries here sented have added further str arbitration by a fundamental tenet of constitutions.
