world have raised in acute form the question of what a nation like the United States is to do in defense of Its ideals and intangible interests Looked at through American eyes Germany and Mexico are engaged in religious Parallel with these denials of re ligious there are the breaches of international all of them promoted by the United some of them ratified and signed by the United Though it cannot be shown that any important material interest Is the feeling exists that somehow or other the United States ought to be able to exercise some moral authority in defense of ele mentary human rights and of the sanctity of The simplest of these questions is that presented by the demand that the government give moral support to the Kellog pact by condemning Italian policy In The ac tion demanded would have to rest entirely on the Kellogg pact since the United States is not a party to any of the treaties affecting pia and Is not a member of the League of But on what ground can the United States gov argue that Italy has vio lated the Kellogg pact or is about to violate It The pact provides no machinery whatever for any Judicial determination as to whether the pact has been violated or An official denunciation of Italy would on no firmer basis than that American officials in Washington after reading the news papers and the reports of their dip had set themselves up as Judges of Italian This may be But the misfortune is in the pact Itself which Is merely a pious resolution that nch signer may Interpret as he sees It must not be confused with treaties like the Washing ton treaties concerning navies and or with the Covenant of the In the Far East the United States had ground on which to protest because it hnd made a bargain with Japan in which it madn real concessions in return for real Under the the members of the League have ground for action if under the pro set up in the Covenant It Is determined the Covenant Is But the Kellogg pact Is a wholly different Since each nation may interpret it for it has no sanction except the con science of each There is nothing In the pact which entitles us to say that our official conscience Is better conscience than It Is I that the American government cannot ap point Itself to be the judge of the Ethiopian If we had rati fied the the position would have been utterly We should then have accepted the rule that our own as well as the actions of may be judged by the members of the League and we would have the moral obligation to support the But hav ing deliberately rejected all Italy would properly resent a policy which amounted to saying that we were assuming the rights of a mem ber of the League without any of thr In regard to the religious there of ample precedents for official Dur ing the nineteenth century many protests were made by the Ameri can government and by the possibly also by and on the whole they probably had a salutary The civilized world was then not spiritually divided as it is today and the universal assumption was that civilization and the rights of man were No highly educated people officially declared its disbelief in liberty and the out breaks of persecution occurred on the frontiers of the western International opinion counted not only because there were common moral assumptions but because opinion was not imprisoned by gov censorship and manufac tured by Under the conditions prevailing today the only question involved in official protest is whether it does good or The most seasoned observers think that in the present state of nationalist the chief effect of official protest of any kind from abroad is to undermine fatally the position of the liberal opposition in the persecuting The very fact that they are liberal at all makes suspect to the domi nant when foreign gov support their opposition they are not strengthened but are The foreign governments can do nothing to back up the pro But the foreign official pro tests are an easy pretext for de nouncing the liberal opposition as unpatriotic and in alliance with the enemies of their It may be of that in countries like Germany and Russia the liberal opposition has already been This is rhetoric rather than The opposition must exist If it did the governments in power would not break out so violently at fre quent If the opposition were utterly crushed beyond hope of it would not be nec essary to resume the business of crushing It every few Unofficial if It is made with and is a dif ferent It is not likely to bt effective The censor shins are too impenetrable
