Irving Fisher of Yale argues three strong reasons for a League of Nations to end the war and prevent future wars. It would help wind up the conflict, regulate landlocked regions and colonies, and curb competitive armaments. A third, vital aim is to limit war by creating an international police to enforce treaties and shift national pride from conquest to compliance. He adds an overarching duty to honor those who fought for democracy by building a lasting League.
