War Unity of the Allies Teaches the Lesson of Future Co-Operation

By CHARLES E. HUGHES

In the cooperation-achieved by the associated gov-, emments during the war lies the promise of the future. We have a new era spreading before our vision, "in which the great aim will be to- mai'ntaihthissen.'e of unity. Let us learn that in meeting our problems here force, tyranny, the determination to rule must be crushed. Arraying < !a" against class, the thought of paver obtained by the mere exercise of strength must be forever-crushed. - Wp have no jealousies or envies or petty rivalries <in this hour of victory, where every nation has its just

cause for pride, where every army brings home its proud banners unstained by the slightest touch of cowardice or of anything which could dishonor the emblem of the nation. ' We have, therefore, peculiarly resting upon us at this hour the responsibilities not only of victory but of a victory so won, for it means that m working our wav through these terrible days and years of suffering and strife we have been learning this lesson of co-operation. Tlii- lesson we must learn so thoroughly that we shall be guided in the difficult path of international co-op<Tation in the days of peace and in the very difficult path.of social eo-ojieration in solving our own problems in our own political homes.
