place In determining the actions of
the state, since the sole duty of the
state is to get power. This is Ger

political philosophy, from the very be

posed this theory, and now In this war
Is fighting against it. For the Ger
man theory necessarily carries with It
utter denial of the claims of moral
feeling, of international right, of hu
man decency and chivalry.
The German historian, Treltschke,
at whose feet princes and rulers eat,
eagerly absorbing his teachings, de
voted his life to spreading this gospel
of Potoer. It Is true, he said sneer
lngly, that "a stock of inherited con
ceptions of integrity and morality is
a necessity for government," (useful.
that subjects of the state be obedient),
but "the end all and be all of a
state Is Power." "The state is the
sole judge of the morality of Its own
actions. It Is, in fact, above morality,
or, In other words, whatever is nec
essary Is moral."
From this It follows, In International
relations, that there Is no rule or
guide to conduct except self-interest

no ethical friendships between statei

as the convenience Itself."
Professor Kulenberg of Leipzig sunn
it up, "All ethical considerations an
completely alien to the state and th
state must therefore resolutely kte
them at arm's length."
