Streit is an American and very ad- not follow


that Eutope Is ripe for the plan of too aidyanced a thinker. We only


need Ito go back to President [Wilson In the last war. He was so obviously in advance of the most advanced; opinlbn in America thalj while he came! over, here and tcok a lead, perhaps the lead, in the; terms Of peaci to be Imposed on Germany, his own scheme fell itprc ugh even^ tually and he was more or less repudiated in hl§ owr country. That; was a primary cause of the failure of the Peace of Versailles. The|whole point tq;me Is whether


or riot Federalism will prove too Utopian a solution of presentfday Europe’s troubles. If it iwill; better abaildon i t at once, since after attempting the Impossible our poslilon is worse, much worse, than before that attempt wab made. If Federalism proves to be practicable well] and good, but that ls by no means certain. Th;; Federal idea Is riot.' wholly new. I but has been “ aired’: ’ ever since jithe last war, and

The vaiues we uphold and those which we oujght to uphold much n^ore; strongly, happier conditions for our poorer people^ the freeing of the oppressed European nations, a fairly ordered world economy—all' these things would be set back twb hundred years or more by a Nazi victory. ’The only hope we should then have to con­ sole our certainly desperate state would be of that mildbr] and more liberal temper which thej long enjdyinent of domination brings to some powerful States, and even that hope would not be sure, for I the i inhuman errors of

Great Britain would get ffiem toy set­ ting up States in [ Scotland, Wales, Northland South England, iSud claim­ ing the quota for Ulster.] Each of these States would form and finance its own forces under the Federal Ministry of Defence in London:' France and Ger­ many would follow the same system.


Blit each Great Power would be repre­ sented in the Congress tod; Council of ttie European Confederation, not by a


F^eral delegation,; but by fives of the States in proportion to | bnly States j

would fiirther provide a procedure its own protectioaiagaii^t those wlucn, wbre excluded. And an Important pomt. is! that these States would Itend to in-j crease their influence in international afibirs, especially to Germany where, there still survives a! national senti- nient of Saxony, Bavaria; Prussia, &oi The practical post-war! position would therefore be, for' a period, a military balance of power and poijulation be­ tween a British and French alhance arid a: German Federation. But the concentrqtion of each State, on its own
