April 7, 1928 WINNETKA TALK 27 At Woman's Society (Contributed) "Governmental Efforts Towards World Peace" was the subject chosen for Miss Jane Addams' address before the Woman's society of the Win- netka Congregational church last Wednesday. Miss Addams, named by Dr. Emil Ludwig as the first among the four greatest living Americans, needs no introduction to the American public. Her life, her work, her ideals are known the world over, and it was certainly a great privilege to hear her message, which was presented in such an earn- est, convincing manner. Miss Addams' address was a resume of the subject, begining with the Hague Tribunal, established in 1899, and leading up to the formation of the League of Nations at the close of the World war. Miss Addams re- ferred to the years spent in efforts to abolish slavery, which finally was accomplished when sufficient "moral fervor" was back of the movement. Another radical movement which took years to accomplish the desired re- sult was woman's suffrage. Civilized countries that are responsi- ble for the progress of civilization will eventually outlaw war. The question is whether we will strike out blindly or hold back, or intelligently and ef- fectively become a part of that great movement. From the time the Hague Tribunal was established, up to 1914, the Court had adjudicated 115 cases and con- ciliated many others. The first person tong the court was Theodore Roose- velt. A legislative body called the Inter- Parliamentary union, that functioned in the interest of international rela- tions, met at St. Louis in 1903, the time of the World's fair. Miss Addams attended the sessions and was greatly impressed. All over the world, efforts are being made to bring nations into closer re- lationship. Hundreds of things are carried on by agreements between gov- ernments, Miss Addams pointed out. The Universal Postal union she cited as a result of these agreements. After the World war, peace makers again made a movement tending to unite the nations, and the League of Nations was formed. This has been a great factor in bringing nations to- gether, and whether the United States comes into the league or not, that body is a going concern, Miss Addams states. If one could attend these assem- blies, he would be impressed with the atmosphere which seems to radiate good will and earnest effort to effect a world peace. Miss Addams was pres- ent when Germany was admitted to the League. The climax of the oc- casion was reached when the French minister, Briand, said, "Let causes of war come as they may, I feel there can never be another war between France and Germany." Every new thing attempted is dis- appointing at first, but the great thing is to try it, and learn to use it, said Miss Addams. She referred to the "conferences" or "conversations" which are going on at present between Secretary of State Kellogg and Min- ister of France Briand, in regard to a universal treaty between these two nations. It is a significant thing that the ministers of two great countries are considering such an agreement. At the same time, it seems incon- gruous to Miss Addams that Secretarv of the Navy Wilbur is urging the largest appropriations ever made for the navy. Hundreds of letters have been received protesting against this, the speaker said. Miss Addams said that the question of peace may be pushed back for a while, but the elimination of war is coming. "Peace has nothing to do with pa- triotism," said Miss Addams. Only in the United States is it considered un- patriotic to have peace organizations, the speaker remarked. "Peace peo- ple" we always have, she said. By setting up some method for abol- ishing war, by giving a sense of secur- ity in not urging too large an arm- ament--these things will do much to bring about world peace. Following Miss Addams' talk, Mrs. Mortimer B. Parker, chairman of the nominating committee, read her re- port, which will be acted upon at the annual meeting, occurring the first Wednesday in May.
