History Depart ment Leland Stanford Junior University 5 18 military establishment controlled by an Irresponsible government, which, having secretly planned to dominate the world, proceeded to carry out the plan without regard either to the sacred obligation« of treaty or the long-established prac- tices and long-cherished principles of In ternational action and honor; . . . This power la not the German people. It le the ruthless master of the German peo ple. ... It la our business to see to It that the hlatory of the rest of the world Is no longer left to its handling." —President Wilson, August 27, 1917. Examine this one if you have not, and get our figures on same immediately. THE NATION AND MORAL DUTIES The rulers of Germany believe that they have the right to prevail over all other nations. They also believe that the power of the state is the only ob ject for which its rulers should strug gle. Still further, they believe that moral principles and ideas have no place in determining the actions of the state, since the sole duty of the state is to get power. This is Ger man political philosophy. American political philosophy, from the very be ginning of our institutions, has op posed this theory, and now in this war is fighting against it. For the Ger man theory necessarily carriee 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 sat, eagerly absorbing his teachings, de voted his life to spreading this gospel of Power. It Is true, he said sneer- ingly, 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. In this present war a follower of Treltschke, one of the leading com mon-school educators of Germany, Kirschensteiner of Munich, drives home the theory. “The great lesson which the German people has had to learn is to think in terms of power. . Let no one here say that small states, too. can have a national life of their own. True, so long as the great states around them allow them to exist. But any day may see the end of their existence, in spite of all treaties to the contrary. . . . Neither alliances nor treaties provide the least security. . There are no ethical friendships between states in our day. . . . There are only friendships of convenience. And friend- ships of convenience last just as long as the convenience itself.” . , . Professor Eulenberg of Leipzig sums It up. “All ethical considerations are completely alien to the state and the state must therefore resolutely keep them at arm's length.” Can we wonder that the German Foreign Secretary spoke of the broken treaty with Belgium as a "scrap of paper?" or that the school children of Germany celebrated the sinking of the Lusitaniaf or that German agents in America, smoothly friendly in ap pearance, secretly plotted, before we were In the war. to destroy our in dustries, our railways, even our lives? Is there no such thing any more as a common humanity—no “decent respect to the opinion of mankind,” as Thomas Jefferson stated it in the Declaration of Independence? Is our ideal of righteousness, yes, even of unselfishness, impossible In Interna tional politics? This war. if Germany is defeated, may decide these ques tions. but if Germany wins, the struy Ole has but fust begun. This American democracy of our denies, and has always denied, the German theory; It asserts that the taws which formulate the duties of men toward each other are binding upon nations equally with Individuals For centuries civilization has been slowly advancing from ignorance, prejudice. and selfishness toward sym- pathy, understanding, and a desire to see justice done, whether between in- dividuals or nations, The “be all and end all" of a state Is not Power—It is Justice. And the government has left us In no doubt as to the results of her theory, in application. That government has broken a solemn treaty with Belgium, ordered the mur der of Innocent hostages, bombarded unfortified towns, torpedoed unarmed | passenger ships, destroyed works of art where they could not be carried to Germany, plotted secret war against neutral nation»—all of them actions she once pledged herself to forego— has lost. In short, all sense, appar. ently. that she Is dragging the former good name of the German people through a mire of dishonor, the stain of which will not be removed for generations Against this mad phi- losophy and mad government the must be waged, until they are de- feated or there Is no safety for men or nations.
