A' 'y 4 i- PEOPLE'S FORUM. 86.44 11.57 11.71 1.60 " x International JVaee. . La Grande, Mar. 1. (To the Ed itor) In these days of wars and rumors of wars naturally the question of universal - peace comes up, and I suppose practically every thinking person has his theory as to just how we should go about it to establish in ternational peace. Now the theory I am about to ad vance is very old, that is part of it is, and part of it I have added to from my imagination. In the first place it is no. more right for a nation to war with each other than it is for two individuals to fight. We .have city ordinances in all cities of the world forbidding- in dividuals to enter into fights for the purpose of redressing wrongs. If they do they are fined. They are "pinched" if you please. ' And when the offending party comesinto the Municipal court the judge sentences him and the fellow immediately ob jects, ne says, "Well this other man called me a liar and said I owed him $10 and if I didn't pay it he would take it out in hide.." So what could t do but light? The iudee savs. "Wfcll it makes no difference, you should have taken it up in court." Now those are the fundamentals of every tight or quarrel, let it be be tween individuals, cities, counties, HtAtpR fv nfltinn. Rt.f ..mII I - ............. U V JU J i vw.t if we tried to tell a nation to go to iuw aoout it, wnat court would have jurisdiction. ' The question is this: Each nation as it exists today should send a judge who is elected by the people, to the international court, these judges, one each from each nation, to sit as the international supreme court. Now suppose Austria says Servia through her agents, has killed one of my dukes just because I said I owned certain territory bordering on the only sea outlet I have. Well then it is the duty of Servia and Austria to each select her lawyers, her witnesses and her evidence In exhibits and go before the international court, there to be given evidence and questioning the witnesses,' that Austria shall pay $2, 000,000 to Servia as indemnity and shall in addition pay all court costs. Well you say, supposing Austria says she will not do it and immed iately picks up arms against Servia. Well a court of course must have the necessary sheriffs to carry out the mandates of the said court. So each nation of the world sends 10,000 trained troops down to Austria to levy an execution-on the property of Austria and first takes charee if her customs and gets tho fine and pays it wj oervm. iveu u Austria ODjects then the thousands of. sheriffs take her arm.v and put them on the rock pile. Now each nation should donate so much money to this sort of universal court and head of government for which to buy ships, ammunition, sup plies, etc., for this vast army. Then in timeR when business was slack the army could be put at work on great international roads, soendinir so much (time on each nation, dividing it up. -. . . Now of course the nations would 4 MEN LISTEN!
