PLAN NUMBER 1409
There l not Room, for More Than
One Organization to Promote i
International Cooperation
Five-aixtha; of a?; nations, in
cluding-; about tour-fifths of man
kind, have already created a World
organization, the purpose of which
is '.'to promote international coop
eration, and, to . achieve interna
tional peace and security."
. Those nations, cannot and wl11
not abandon this system' which has
now been actively operating for
three and a halt years. If loading
members of the. United States gov
ernment ever had. serious hopes
that another association of nations
could be formed-, such hoDes were
dispelled during the .Washington
conference by. .plain intimations
form other powers that there is
not room for more than one or
ganization like the League of Na
tions. . , ...
The states .outside the ol-gaii-
ized world are not of such a char
acter that, the United States could
.hopefully, cooperate with; them for
the. purpose named. . - '
Therefore,, the only possible
path to cooperation in which the
United States can take an increas
ing share is that which .leads to
ward some form of agreement with
the, world as now organised, call
ed the League of Nations. .
By . sheer forca ol social inter
national gravitation sueh coopers,
tion , becomes Inevitable.
The . Unitd States Has Already
Gone Far in Cooperation With
, ' the League of Nations
The TJnlted." States government,
theoretically maltaining" a policy
of isolation, has actually gone far,
since 'aiarcn-s. ltzi, toward rco-
operation with other nations to
achieve and preserve the peace of
the world.
The most familiar part of the
story is the work of the Washing
ton conference, wherein President
Hardin ?s administration made a
beginning of naval disarmament,
opened to China a prospect of re
habilitation and Joined with Great
Britain, 'Japan and France to
make tjie Pacific ocean worthy ot
its name. .
Later came the recommendation
that the 'United States should ad
here to the Permanent Court of
International Justice.
Not long after that action Pres
ident Harding . wrote to Bishop
Bailor: '
"I do not believe any man can
confront the responsibility of
President of the United States and
yet adhere to the idea that it is
possible for our country to maltaln
an attitude ot isolation and aloof-
nesa in the world."
But since the proposed adhesion
of the Permanent Court would
bring this country into close con
tact at one time and point with the
League of Nations, and since such
action is strenuously opposed for
exactly that reason; it is pertinent
to inquire not only how much co
operation with the League and its
organs has been proposed during
the life of the present Administra
tion, -but also how much has been
actually begun. ,
Officially or Unofficially, the Unli
ved " States Is ' Represented on
Many League Commissions
.'.The ; United : States Government
has ' accredited its representatives
to sit as members "in an unoffic
ial and consulting capacity" upon
four of the most important social
4 welfare commissions of the Leagae
yjz: Health, Opium, Traffic in Wo
mea and children, and Anthax (In
dustrial .Hygiene. )
. Our Government is a full mem
ber 4 of the International Hydro-
graphic Bureau, an organ of the
League, -s. Our Government was
represented . by an "unofficial ob
server" in" the Brussels Conference
(Finance and Economic Commis
sion la 1920. It sent Hon. Ste-
phen G. Porter and Bishop Brent,
to represent' it at the meeting of
the Opium Commission last May.
1 Our Public health j Service ' has
Uken part in the Serological Con
gresses of the Epidemics Commis
sion and has helped in the exper
imental work for the standardiza-
tion of serums. x s ' ". 1 :
. Our Government t collaborates
with the League Health Orgonlza
tion through :the International Of
fice of Public Health at Paris, and
with the Agriculture CommUtee
of the League Labor Organization
through the International Insti
tute of Agriculture at Hornet
Hughes and President ."Harding
armjles and:neetaV since-.it utterly
failed to Obtain even an Interna-
formally recommended fthatf. the Mional 'police -forcnC for theYihia
Senate approve our adhesion to the
Permanent Court under four-conditions
'or 'reservations, one of
which was that' the Ufiltoil States
should officially participate in the
election of judges' by the Assem
bly and Council of the League, sit
ting as electoral colleges foe that
purpose. :
Unofficial cooperation from the
United States with the work of
tho League includes memberships
in fire of the. social welfare com
missions or committees of the
League, In one on economic reconstruction,-
and in one (Aaland Is
lands) which averted ' a war.
American -women serve as expert '
Assessors upon the Opium; and
Traffic in Women Commissions.
Two philanthropic agencies in
the United States have between
them pledged more than f 100,000
to support either the. work of the
Epidemics Commission or the
League Inquiry" into conditions of
the traffic in women and children.
IIoh' Can Increasing Cooperation
Between tho. United States and
tho Organized World Be Se
cured? The United States being already
so far committed 'to united coun
sel with League-agencies for the
common social welfare, . all of
which have some bearing upon the
preservation of. world peace, the
Question, before us may take this
form:
How can increasing cooperation
between the United SUtes and the
organized world for the promotion
ot peace and security be assured,
in forms acceptable to the- people
ot tho United States and hopefully
practicable?- tA
Tho United States Can Extend Its
present Cooperation With the '
League's Social -Welfare
Activities ;','
Without anychange in Its pres
ent policy, already described, the
United States Government could,
first, show its willingness to e6op-!
erate similarly with the-dther' hu
mane and reconstructive agencies
of the League; To four of these
agencies that Government had al
ready sent delegates with advisory
powers. It could as properly ac
cept invitations to accredit mem
bers with like powers to eacn one
of the other .welfare commissions;
It has already received invitations
from two of the-latter.",- .
It is, secondly ; immediately
practicable to '.extend the same
Kind ? of ; cooperation whenever
asked to do it, so as to inciuae
participation in the work of 'the
commissions, and technical, com?
mittees of the Labor Organization.
The record Bhows that such coop
eration is- already begun.
The single common purpose of
all these committees is the collec
tion andBj,udy of .Jnformation,--ij
which may be based, subsequent
recommendations for national reg-i
islatlon. - - -
All conventions and resolutions.
recommended by the flxst thfeer
congresses of the Internationa La
bor Organization, haVe already
been, laid before the Senate of the
United States and, wlthont objec
tion, referred to the. appropriate
committee. No, dUfereni procer
dure-would haye been fonowed it
tho United States were a member
of the Labor Organization of the
League. "'
An Immediate Step is Adherence
! to tho Permanent Court
A third immediately practicable
step is the Senate's approval of the
proposal that the United ' States
adhere to the. Permanent Court of
International Justice for. the rea
sons and under the conditions sta
ted by Secretary Hughes and Pres
ident Harding in February, i2
These three, suggestions tor in
creasing cooperation with the
family ot nations are in harmony
with policies already adopted by
our Government, and In the last
case with a policy so old and well
recognized that it may, now be
called traditional.
They do not involve a question
of membership .in the "League of
Nations as now constituted, but it
cannot be denied that they lead
to the threshold of that question.
Any further step-toward coopera
tion must confront thet prqbenj
of . direct .relations between the
United States and - the - Assembly
and Council of 5 naidns in the
League. .."
In Actual Operation .the League
Employs No Fort
. The practical experience' of the
League during its 'first three and
a half years of lite "has not only
wrought out, In a group of prece
dents, the beginnings of what
might be ealled the constitutional
law of the League, but it has. also
shifted the- emphasis in activities
of the League and foreshadowed
Important modifications in its con
stltutlon. the Covenant.
. At its birth the Covenant of the
League bore, vaguely in Article X
and '-more clearly in Article XVI .
the impression of a general agree
ment to enforce and coerce. Both
of those articles suggest the ac
tion ot a world-sUte which never
existed and does not now, exist
How far the present League is ac
tually removed from' functioning
as such a SUte is sufficiently ex
hibited In its dealings, with Lith
uania and Poland over Vilna and
1 their common bOtfndaW and with
Greece and iuly verf Corf u
Experience 'in the last . three
years has ' demonstrated probably
Insuperable difficulties In the way
o? fulfiHinr" in all Mparts oT the
world, the large .promise fcfc Article
X to respect to elthr: its iettfer or
its spirit. : No one noWTexpects the
League Council to try- to summon
district, - - t i
L Each Assembly of the League
nas witnessed 'lgoroufi. efforts to
interpret and modify' Article X In j
the Fourth 'Assembler an attempt;
to adopt an interpretation of that
Article in essential agreement with
the Senatorial reservation on the
same subject in 1920 was blocked
only by a small group of weak
States like Persia and Panama,
which evedlently .attributed to Ar
ticle X a protective power that it
possesses only on. paper
Such States, in possible fear of
unfriendly neighbors, must decide
whether the preservation "of a
form of words in tho Covenant Is
more vital to their peace and se
curity, and to the peace .and se
curity, of thB world, than the pres
ence of the United SUtes .at the
council table -ot the 'family of na
tions. I . -'-
As to Article XVt, the Council
of the League created a Blockade
Commission which worked for two
years to detemlne liow the- "eco
nomic weapon" of .the 'League
could be efficiently used and uni
formly applied. Thp Commission
failed to discover aljy obligatory
procedure j that weaker Powers
would dare to accept. It was fin
ally agreed that each State must
decide for itself whether a breach
of the Covenant has been commit
ted. ' '. ' "'" '. -.
, The Second Assembly adopted a
radically amended trm of Article
XVI' from which was removed all
reference to the possibility of em
ploying military - force, and; in
which the abandonment ot uniform
obligation was directly provided
for. Trie British Government has
since proposed to weaken the form
of "requirement stili further.
, Artless X and XVI, in. their or
iginal forms, have -therefore been
practically condemned by the prin
cipal organs of the League and are
today reduced, to, somethmg like
innocuous desuetude. 7 The ; only
kind of compulsion which nations
can freely engage to apply to each
other in the name o( Peace , s that
which - arises from conference,

TIe Leadership of tho Vnilod.
State in tho New World Is
Obviously Recognized by
tli League
Another significant develop-1
ment In' the -constftutionaf prac
tice of the League Is. the unwill
ingness of the League Council to
Intervene In any American contro-veray,-
even -though- all states in
the New World except three are
members of ho League. ;
This refusal became, evident in
the Panama-Costa Rica dispute in
1S21 and in the quarrel between
Chile, Peru and Uorivli, a quarrel
which Impelled the last two states
to absent themselves from, the (
Third Assembly, wherein a Chil
ean was chosen to preside.
Obviously the League intends to
recognize -the leadership ot the
United States in the New World
precisely as the United States
claims It. This is nothing less
than the observance of an unwrit
ten. law limiting, the powers and
duties of the League Council, de
fined in Article XI-of the Covenant
to questions that seem' to threat?
en tho peace oC the ;Old -World.
When the United States is willing
to bring the" two halves of the
-vorld together for friendly-consideration
ot common dangers, duties
and needs, it will bo possible lo
secure, if It is" desired, closer co
operation between the Loague or
ganizations and the Pan-Ainex.ican
Union, already a potential region
al league. It. is conceivable that
the family of nations, may even
tually clearly define certain pow
ers and duties of relatively local
'significance which may be devel
oped upon -local .associations or
unions." But the world of. busi
ness and finance is already unified.
The worlds of scientific knowledge
and humane effort arff .enrl7;so.t!
Isolation of any iind is increas-H
ingfy impossible, 'and ' world" or
ganization, already centralized, is
no morei- likely: to', return to dte--conpocled'

operation of the League
has therefore evolved a Council
widely different Xroni the body
imagined by ' the makers of the
Covenant. It can employ no force
but that of persuasion and moral
influence. Its only actual powers
are to confer and - advise, to cre
