To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is time to secure a less ignorant and less prejudiced conduct of affairs by the admission of the democracy to an active admin- istrative share. The deliberations of the Council should be public and it should refuse to regard as binding any treaty, agreement, or understanding of which the terms had IS A PERMANENT PEACE POSSIBLE? 99 been kept secret. By means of secrecy, an air of mystery and hocus-pocus is preserved, of which the sole use and purpose is to keep power in official hands, and to... prevent the intrusion of common sense into the arcana of diplomacy. The public is hoodwinked by the assurance that secrecy is essential to national security. Hitherto, on this plea, even the most democratic countries of Europe have handed over their destinies blindfold to men who have abused their trust by poli- cies diametrically opposed to what their followers desired. Only publicity can prevent a repetition of this crime. In urging that men who are not professional diplo- matists ought to take part in the International Council, I am not wishing to suggest that diplomatists, as individuals, are any worse than other men, but only that their training, their traditions, their way of life, and the fact that they represent the national interest to the exclusion of all other considerations, must tend to close their minds to an order of ideas which lies outside the scope of their official duties.
