Viscount Richard Burden Haldane, lord high chancel lor of Great Britain, today spoke as the guest of honor of the American Bar association, which is holding Its annual convention here. Lord Hald ane took for his topic "Higher Na tionality; A Study In Law and Ethics." "What one who finds himself face to face with this assemblage natural ly thinks of is the future of the three nations; a future that may depend largely on the influence of men with opinions such as ours," declared his lordship. "The United States and Canada and Great Britain together form a group which Is unique; unique because of its common inher itance In traditions ,tn surroundings and In ideals. And nowhere Is the character of this common inherit ance more apparent than in the re gion of Jurisprudence. The lawyers of the three countries think for the most part alike. At no period has po litical divergence been strik ingly apparent. Where the letter of their law Is different, the spirit Is yet the same. It la this identity ot spirit, large ly due to a past, which the lawyers of this group have Inherited Jointly that not only forms a bond of union, but furnishes them with an Influence that Van hardly be reproduced In other nations. I take my stand on facts which are beyond controversy and seek to look ahead. I ask you to consider with me whether we, who have In days gone by moulded their laws, are not called on to try In days that lie In front to mould opinion in yet another form, and so encour age, the nations of this group to de velop and recognize a reliable char acter In the obligations they assume towards each other. "For it may be that there are rela tions within such a group of nations that are not possible for nations more isolated from each other and lacking In our Identity of history and spirit. Cnnada and Great Britain on the one hand, and the United States on the other, ubo a common lan guage, have common interests and common ends, resembling a stroug society. If there be such a society, It may develop within Itself a foun dation for International faith of a kind that Is new In the history of the world. Without Interfering with the freedom of action of these great countries, or the Independence of their constitution, It may bo possibfe to establish a true unison between sovereign states. This unison will doubtless, If It ever comes Into com plete being have its witnesses In treaties and written agreements. But such documents can never of them selves constitute it. Its substance, If It Is to be realized, must be sought for deeper down In an Intimate so cial life." Lord Haldane urged lawyers to as sist In the freshening of the conven tional atmosphere which surrounds men In public life by omitting no op portunity to think rightfully and contribute to the fashioning of a more hopeful and resolute kind of public opinion.
