In Our Modern World Of Interdependent Nations,

The Question Is, What Are We To Do In Order To Consolidate Peace On A Universal And Durable Foundation, And What Are The Essential Elements Of Such A Peace?

In Our Modern World Of Interdependent Nations, Hardly Any State Can Wage War Successfully Without Raising Loans And Buying War Materials Of Every Kind In The Markets Of Other Nations.

I Do Not Believe That The Values Which The Western Democracies Consider Essential To Civilization Can Survive In A World Rent By The International Anarchy Of Nationalism And The Economic Anarchy Of Competitive Enterprise.

The Forces That Are Driving Mankind Toward Unity And Peace Are Deep-seated And Powerful. They Are Material And Natural, As Well As Moral And Intellectual.

In Short, It May Be Said That On Paper The Obligations To Settle International Disputes Peacefully Are Now So Comprehensive And Far-reaching That It Is Almost Impossible For A State To Resort To War Without Violating One Or More Solemn Treaty Obligations.
