On that assumptions the League of Nations launched, based on the idea th a t; nations, both large and' small, would act for the, general good of the world, regardless of any sacrifice or danger on the part of any particular member. For this was discarded .the old diplomacy, so. wickedly founded on the law of mutual advantage, which after all, human nat̂ ure being . what it %-is*one of'the few things that can be relied upon to hold nations- and individuals together. That much of this had' been ..admittedly secret was hailed- as particularly ob- - noxious in Spite.'.of the fact that no sane inan would think of ' telling all his .business to the public at large. And how much more ;neodssary this must be, in the case, of nations - it is hardly,ri^essary!to, elaborate. So we* have the League of Natibns'^ahd la World" feverishly're-arming, because not one nation dare trust.one other. .
