Viscount Grey Tells
.
Why He Thinks World
Needs Peace League
“What | Want lu_;c;r‘j;u 'T(‘«'l;_:’lh' of Nations
Formed, Not to Make Rules of War, But One
to Prevent All Future Wars.”
By VISCOUNT GREY,
Former British Minister of Foreign Affairs
The question of a league of nations
is becoming daily more important, not
only for itself, but because it Is most
closely bound up with a question
which, I think, is going to be of the
greatest importance in our foreign af
fairs, that of our relations with the
Urited States of America.
I see no reason whatever why the
naval policles of the United States
and Great Britain should not only not
come into eonflict, but should not he
in close co-operation and conciliation.
This ought to be comparatively easy,
provided the peoples are perfectly
frank on both sides and did not let
misunderstandings grow up as to
what each meant.
We hear from the United States
that there is a great amount of talk
about the freedom of the seas, that
President Wilson attaches great im
portanece to it, and that it is antici
saud or feared that it will create dif
culties between himself and our Gov.
ernment.
Well, I think it i= a great pity that
80 much has been sald about the free
dom of the seas without its being de
fined. It is quite true that there is a
considerable prejudice against the
phrase in this country, greatly due, 1
think, to the fact that it is believed
to be a GermMn phrase.
Now, It 18 not a German phrase.
It is an American phrase,
It was made in the United States,
HEARST’S SUNDAY AMERICAN - A Newggager for PGOBIB Who Think — SUNDAY, JANUARY 26, 1919.
and the Germans adopted it, and used
it for their own purposes, in a sense
and with an intention to which we
never, could have agreed. Therefore.
it has never become very popular,
Awaiting a Definition.
What we have to consider is what
the United States means, what Pres
ident Wilson means, by the phrase
“freedom of the seas.” Until he de
fines it, until he comes to discuss it
with our Government, there is no need
to anticipate that there will ba\dlm
culty about agreement.
What does it mean?
Does it.mean freedom of the seas In
time of peace? 4
If so, we agree.
Wherever the British navy has been
in a position to exercise influence and
power on the seas in time of peace
there 1t has exercised that influence
impartially, for the freedom of the
seas for all nations, without distine
tion,
Distinction ik the U. S.
I think that even in the United
States they have some rule that for
eign ships are not allowed to carry
goods between United States ports
and the Philippines. Some other
countries have had a rule of the same
kind.
Weli, we have never had a rule like
that.
We have been more completely for
the freedom of the seas in time of
peace than any other nation, and,
however strong our navy has been, we
have never varied in recent times on
that point, and we have used our sea
power, however great it has been, for
impartial® freedom of the seas, for
every other nation, just much as our
selves, in times of peace.
1 think we ought to receive a Ifttle
more recognition than we do receive
for the fact that we have never used
British naval power in time of peace
to make use of the seas for ourselves,
without making it at the same time
more easy for others on the same
terms. o
U. 8, and Blockade of Germany,
If the question is one of freedom of
the seas, not in time of peace, but in
war, then I would say this:
The United States in this war has
taken, as we all know-—as we all most
gratefully recognize—a part in the
last two years of the war without
which we could not have had the suc
cess which the Allies have now won.
You ecan not emphasize that too
much or express too much apprecia
tion of it.
Since the United States entered the
war the United States has not only
acquiesced in, but, as 1 believe, has
most strongly co-operated in carrying
out the blockade of Germany.
In.the early stages of the war it
Was not so.
Our blockade could not have been
nearly so complete, because the
United States raised many questions
about it. But in the later years of
he war the blockade was mmade com
plete with the co-operation of the
Enlted Szten. and without tha.t‘
lockade ccess in the war could
not have been won. Indeed, without
that blockade Germany might have
won the war,
Case of a Future War.
Now, supposing vou had this situa
tion over again. Supposing you had
again to fight a war like this against
a Germany which had behaved in the
same way.
It is Impossible to suppose that the
United States is going to say that
there is to be no blockade,
It is impossible that the United
States should now take up the line
that If you had to deal with Ger
many over again the blockade, which
was an essential of success, should
not be allowed. Why, that would
stultify everything that they have
done in this war. [ think it is ab
solutely impossible, 1 think it really
an insult to suggest that the United
States would in future advocate any
course in a war such as is inconsist
ent with the line they have taken in
this war, and that is one of complete
' blockade of the offending nation.
| “Freedom of the Seas.”
If that be so, do not we come to
this, that probably what is in Presi
dent Wilson's mind is that freedom of
the seas should be secured to any na
tion which observes tife covenant of a
league of nations and should be*de
nied to any nation which breaks that
covenant of a league of nations?
If that be so, then a league of na
tions is the solution eof the whole
question,
But what T want to see is a league
of nations formed, not to make rules
of war, but to prevent all war;
formed to insist th.s’when disputes
fln between two cduntries those
isputes should be settled by some
means other than that of war,
If ong nation is wiNing to settle
these disputes other than by war, an‘
it would be bound to do by covenant
with the league of nations, and an
other refuses, thgn the whole league
sides with the nation which is willing
to settle against the one which is not.
1 do not see why Britain should not
accept the formula that if a league of
nations is formed there is complete
freadom of the seas so long as the
covenants of the league are observed,
but if the covenant of the ledgue s
broken then there is no freedom of
the seas, and every means is used
against the power which has broken
the covenant.
In conclusion, the struggle out of
which we have just emerged has
shown that all attempts to make war
humane is futile, and terrible as this
conflict has been, the horrors are
nothing comparable to what they
would be if another conflict occurred
twenty yvears hence.
There ought to be an inquiry as to
those responsible for deliberate cruel
ties, and such plinishment inflicted as
would be for all future generations as
warning.
