vmm union now FOB ALL FUSE PEOPLES mtBT PLAN THE BEST The people of the United Slates, undismayed by the reaHsati*/i»*l Kg- tka war in which they are engaged may he long and bloody, are confident, in characteristic fashion, that there can be only one end. a victory by the United States and the "united nations" engaged in the stn*gis with us. , Now involved in a deadly conflict, which the nation desperately Bought to avoid, the policies pursued after the last world war, in oar abject and faantx quest for peace have proved inadequate. It will be necessary* when the present war is won, to persuade the free peoples of the worM to assept an effective organisation to guarantee the peace and freedom of all peoples. n In this connection, it is worth noting that the movement to bring about a federal union between tie United States and the British Commonwealth is gaining new support. The historic visit of Prime Minister ' Winston Chnirhill with his open appeal to the English-speaking peoples to "stick together," has invoked unexpected enthusiasm and, not accidentally, renewed consideration of the methods to be adopted in eollabi arsttoa. ' • The most widely discussed plan revohres around the constitutional unification of the English-speaking world in much the same manner that the American colonies formed the United States. This plan is baaed upon the >rinciplos of "Union Now," a book written by Clarence K. Streit about three years ago and advocating that all free nations delegate specified powers in the field of international relations to a common. Since the outbreak of the present conflict, in which Germany has overran seme of the free nations, Mr. Streit has published a second book, "Union Now With Britain," urging that the English-speaking peoples 'get together for the prosecution of the war and the winning of the peace upon a Federal Union basis, rather .than on terms of alliance, association or other foreign bases. Mr. St—ft served ia t fiist World War, was a Captain in tk* Army Intelligence Service at Paris, dent, lived in Geneva, Switzerland, for many yean, hamming thoroughly familiar with the strength and weakness of the League of Nations. Th, —ential difference between the Strait pi*" and the League pin is that mider a Union there would be n federated parliment, with limited delegated powers, elected directly by the peoples of the member states, with representation based upon population. Under the League plan, or any system of alliance or association, each nation would constitute a reparate unit with equal voice in directing policy but with unequal responsibility ThaJVasidnt, rwwihiil, in m admirable detail,. the policy -of- criminal conquest adopted by>,«|»e Xstali It is to vaderctand that the PresidMft's goal tof fiOUW or 126,000 airplanes, or 4S£00 or 76,000 tanks, or 20,00®. anti-aircraft guns or^6j000, and of. 80,000,000 or 10)000,000 deadweight tons of shipping, does not mean the accomplishment of the national, purpose. , It remains for the American people, working together and united as-neyer before, to make certain that the industrial plant of this country }s devoted wholeheartedly to the production of these necessary implements of warfare.
