To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Let us now examine the stand-pat idea that unlimited arbi- tration is but a dream as expressed in the quotation from Privy Councillor Stengel. This is further from the truth than the other extreme just discussed. He who will, with an unpreju- diced mind, examine cross-sections of history at widely separ- ated stages, cannot fail to see that along with the growing ten- dency of reason to predominate over passion, superstition and custom, has been a parallel tendency to restrict militarism as a s...ocial activity. From war conceived as religion to war as patriotism, then war as commercialism and the tool of ambition, man is now coming to the more rational conception of war as the despoiler of nations. David speaks of the "season of the year" when nations went forth to battle. Fifteen hundred years later, governments pretended at least to justify their mili- tary operations on rational grounds. Today war is the last resort, and even its most ardent defenders do not attempt to justify it except in disputes which involve national honor and vital interests.
