Hull outlines postwar aims and an international force for peace

He urged neutrals to defend liberty, warned that wartime neutrality is futile, and urged global action to build a new order with an international court, monetary stability, and mechanisms to move capital fairly. He traced the conflict to 1931 and urged all nations to join the fight for freedom.
