Why He Thinks World
Needs Peace League
“What I Want to—g;e Is ;T;!a;;rm' 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
falrs, that of our relations with the
United States of America.
1 see no reason whatever why the
naval policles of the United States
and Great Britain should not only not
come inte eonfliot, but should not be
in close co-operation and conciliation.
This ought to bs comparatively easy,
provided the peoples are perfectly
frank em both sides and did not let
misunderstandings grow up as to
what each meant. |
We hear frota the United States
that there Is a great amount of talk
about the freedom of the seas, that
President Wilson attaches great lm—‘
portance to It, and that it is antici
rud or feared that it will ereate dif
culties between himself and our Gov.
ernment.
Well, T think ft is a great pity that
#0 much has been sald about the free
dom of the seas without its being de
fined. It is quite true that there s a
tonsiderable prefudice agalnst the
phrase in this country, greatly due, I
think, to the fact that it is belleved
to be a German phrase,
Now, it 18 hot a German phrase,
It s #an American phrase.
It was made In the United States,
HEARST'S SUNDAY AMERICAN — A Newspaper for People 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 yery wopular.
Awaiting a Definition.
What we haVe to consider is what
the United States means, what Pres
ident Wilson means, by the phém,
“freedom of the seaa™ Until he de
fines it, until he comes to discuss It
with our Government, there is no need
to anticlpate that there will be diffi
culty about agreement,
What does it mean?
Does it mean freedom of the seas In
time of peace? /
If so, we agree.
Wherever the Brittsh navy has beon
in a position to exercise influence and
power on the seas In time of peace
there it has exercised that Influence
impartially, for the freedom of the
seas for all nations, without distine
tion,
Distinction in the U. 8.
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.
Well, we have never had a rule Mke
that.
We have been more gompletely for
the freedom of the seas in time of
peace than any other nation, and,
however dtrong 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 ms seas, for
every other nation, just much as our
selves, in times of peace.
I think we ought to receive a INttle
more recognition than we do receive
for the fact that we have never used
British naval power in time of peace
to rxako use of the seas for ourselves,
without making it at thd same time
more easy for others on the same
termas, 4
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 can 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 I belleve, has
‘most strongly co-operated in carrying
ou‘t the blockade of Germany. #
n the early stages of the war it
‘was not so. ol
Our blockade coul not have been
nearly so ocomplete, because the
United States raised many questions
about it. But in the later years of
the war the blockade was made com
%lote with the co-operation of the
nited States, and without that
blockade success 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 you had this situa
tlon 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 rfo blockade.
It is impossible that the Untted
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 suoccess, should
not ?; allowed. Why, that would
stultify everything that they have
done in this war. I think it {s ab
solutely Impossible, I think it really
an insult to suggest that the United
States would in future advocate any
course in & war such as is Inconsist
ent with the line they have taken in
this war, and that is one of eomplot,
blockade of the offending nation.
“Freedom of the Seas.”
It that be so, do not we eome 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 the covenant of a
league of nations and should be de
nied to any nation which breaks that
covenant én league of nations?
It that 80, then a league of na™
tions is the solution es the whole
question,
But what T want to see s a league
of nations formed, not to make rules
of war, but to prevemt all war;
formed to Insist that when disputes
arise between two oountries those
digputes should be settled by some
means other than that of war.
If one nation is willing to settle
these disputes other than by war, as
it would be bound to do by covenant
with the league of nations, and an-l
other refuses, then the whole league
sides with the nation which is willing
to settle againgt the oné which is not. |
1 do not see why Britain should pot
accept the formula that if a league of
nations ls formed there is complete
freedom of the seas so long as the
covenants of the league are observed,
but if the covenant of the league is
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
hur%anu is futile, and terrible as this
conflict has been, the horrors are
nothing comparable to what they
would be if another confliet occurred
twenty years hence.
There ought to be an inquiry as to
those Pesponsible for deliberate cruel
ties, and such punishment inflicted as
would be for all future generations as
warning.
