There is an attempt to remove causes of ‘war over & great area of the globe's surface by reliance upon the good faith and honest intentions of the nations which sign the treaty, solv- ing all differences through the proc- snes of diplomacy and joint consid- eration and conciliation, No doubt wh shall hoar it said that the region to which this agreement apples is ‘one ‘most unlikely to give birth to seriéus «disputes, and therefore an agreement of this character {s of little consequence. “History unhappily has shown that there is no corner of the earth so re- mote or #o valueless that it is not capable of giving cause for contro- very or even for war between the tripes and the nations.
