The irony of the pact lies in its avowed pur
pose of guaranteeing that there shall be no war
in Europe for a period of ten years. After that,
what? The psychological effect of such a pact
is to place the interested parties in an attitude
similar to children made to toe a mark for a
definite period of time. At the expiration of the
allotted period there is an almost overwhelming
tendency to "let go," to cut extraordinary capers.
In the field of international politics the "cutting
of capers" is not a harmless, childlike game.
Unless extremely vigorous action for world-wide
disarmament is taken soon this new Ten Year
pact will not only be a fruitless gesture but a
hindrance to peace as well. V.J.L.
