And the decision given by that court was complied with. I don't know whether this was the first arbitration settlement in the modern sense of words. But I think that the treaty of 1343 between the three Scandinavian kingdoms, Norway, Den- mark and Sweden, is the oldest existing treaty providing for obligatory arbitration in all future conflicts between the states concerned. Treaties of the same kind were made up in the sixteenth century, too, between the same three countries, and it must be not...iced that these were not voluntary acts of the kings; but the nations compelled their kings to establish by such means a per- manent peace. The kings did not keep their treaties very long. But what the nations wanted is altogether clear. In view of such facts some people come and tell us that the people don't love peace — that it is their governments that must 445 restrain the nations from war. Indeed, misled popular sentiment has too often caused wars. But I ask you; if the democracy can't give us peace, who can ?
