OMAHA HIGH STUDENTS

(Prof. Guernsey Jones.)
It goes almost without saying that a movement for a general limitation
of armaments should be preceded by a careful study of the difficulties to be J
overcome. That difficulties do exist is shown by the failure of the num
erous projects for disarmament at tho Hague conferences In the years
preceding the .great war.
The idea underlying these early efforts was superficially attractive. It
was argued that it the nations wou'.d agree not to carry their military
preparations further, or if they would hit upon some other equitable limi
tation, they would save enormous sums of money w.thout suffering aany
military disadvantage, for they would find themselves in the same relative
position upon the outbreaak of a war. It was a search for a formula by
means of which war could .be was-d more cheaply.
Unfortunately, no such formula was .found, and none can, I think, be
found. Every formula, upon examine .on, will be seen greatly to favor
some nation at the expense of others. The advantages are not equal, and
the proposals are usually found to lf-ve little relation to facts. The sug-
gestcd limitation of naval strength ii proportion to the volume of merchant
shipping or according to the length of national coast-lines is an instance
in point. The first would have given Germany a large navy; the second
a small one. Limit. ng tliecost of battleships would be greatly to our dis
advantage; limiting the tonnage of battleships would be ta the dieadvantage
of Great Britain. A naval holiday would of course greatly favor the nation
now in the lead.
It is interesting to note that if ths total military expenditures are to os
made the basis of discussion, the United States will stand in the dock
as a chief offender, while Germany before the war would have appeared
as a relatively inoffensive power; but that means nothing more than that
