Let me be short as it is impossible to circumstantiate the whole story of this indisputable fact. In January 1918, the President of the United States of America, in an address to Congress, proclaimed his Fourteen Points which have become famous only because they were not honoured by him and his associates.
In an exchange oí notes between October 5 and November 5, 1918, Germany had signified to the United States of America her willingness to effect peace upon these points. On November 5, 1918, the American Secretary of State notified Germany that America's associates had declared their willingness to make peace laid down in the President's address to Congress but that they had made two reservations. These new sixteen points were agreed to as a bose for the armistice and peace. That they were entirely disregarded, should be known to every thinking man or woman; most certainly by the President of the United States of America.
The disillusionment that the war to end war has brought on all of us is due to the fact that America did not keep faith with her given promises, Would it not be better to cover all this as quick as possible by stopping accusing each other, by confessing together and by proclaiming a new world order based on a re-established international good faith?
No war will make the world safe for democracy under such conditions, no war will end war, the last war did not put down Prussian militarism, but, if we believe American writers, it has created others. Even the Americans are militarizing their youth through íhe public schools, colleges and every other channel available; films are used for propaganda. Germany has built a new war machinery more formidable than the Kaiser would ever have had the courage to introduce. War will destroy all and settle nothing definitely. The only way which may save ourselves, our sisters and brothers and children, our country and civilization, is the way Mr. Neville Chamberlain, the greatest of all Prime Ministers ever known, has introduced into the obsolete diplomatic machinery; mutual contacts, mutual respect and negotiated treaties, based on other than the Versailles ethics.
To reply to the President and to come to this conclusion, facts, which should be buried since long, had to be remembered. best way to lead the world either to another Munich or to another world disaster.
