THE BEE: OMAHA, THURSDAY, JUNE 1G, 1010. r Km) X ON I. S. DIPLOMAT tJ Spirit and Purpose it to Promote General Peace. PREDICTS WORLD FEDERATION lie Says Allien of In I ted Mates Will Lead la (ho Creation of 1'er mnncnt Conrt of A r Miration. riULAOKLI'HIA. Pa., June lj.-'If this govi-riiiitnt can help to upbuild Its nclgh tors ur.d promote the thought that the cupiul of tho mora advanced nations of the woiM would he better employed in assist ing tho peaceful development of those more bnrknard, than in financing wars, it Is uch K deviation from traditions as the American peoplo will approve." Secretary Knox, speaking today at the Commencement exercises ot tho University ' of Pennsylvania on Tlie Spirit and Pur- poco of American diplomacy, voiced that sentiment principally as the key note ot - Ms review of Amur. can statecraft from lis beginning. Iteginning with John Jay's treaty of 1754 with Great liiltsin for the peaceful settle ment of boundary disputes, which he declared ushered In the modern era of ar bitration, Secretary Knox declared that American diplomacy had been a diplomacy of leal and definite direction and spirit, not- based on expediency nor driven by the Variable winds of opportunism, and one which, had in its Justice, candor, modera tion and generosity reflected the becotning attributes of a great people. The place which this nation has taken Id the promotion of arbitration, Mr. Knox commended highly, paying generous ref erence to bis predecessors for their part of the work and referring only modestly to his own work of promoting an International Prize Court with the function of a Court Of Arbitral Justice. United States Take Lend. The United States, Mr. Knox declared, hud taken the advanced ground that arbi tration is a Judicial more than a diplo matic procedure and the decision of such a court must conform to the principles of law and equity Involved and controlling. The initiative of the United States In pro moting such a court he said he believed would lead to the early establishment at The Hague of a permanent court of ar bitration. , Beginning with Commodore Perry's visit Jto Japan and Culeb Cushlrig's treaty with t'lilna in 1X44, Mr. Knox devoted much time to discussing the state department's course in the far east. He commended It wurmly, referring to John Hay's open door policy In China as an achievement of which It was Impossible to fail to refer when peaking of Americun diplomacy. "The same Just, friendly and generous American spirit Is conspicuously shown in our diplomatic and othor effort In the In terest of particular nations at critical times or in respect to matters of great oonse quence affecting the welfare of other na i tlons," said Mr. Knox. Open Door In Par East. The part which the United States took In the Boxer troubles and Its subsequent action was taken, he declared, to safe guard the principle ot the preservation of Chinese territorial and administrative entity and equality of commercial oppor tunity. -Mr. Knox reviewed this govern ment's participation In Congo negotia tions, its progressive policy la Liberia, and Its part In terminating' the war between Russia and Japan. Tho most active sphere of American dip lomacy, however, Mr. Knox declared, was in tho relations of the United States with the twenty other republics of the western hemisphere. ' Most of them are pausing through an evolution similar to that of the United States, he said, and the Influence of the diplomacy of the United States could be traced to the development and welding of the Fan-American family of nations. Castro and Zelaya, Mr. Knox referred to as tyrants. The financial difficulties of the Latin American republics Mr. Knox compared In a measure to those of Santo Domingo, and he warmly defended the United States for Itsfeours in the case of the latter. Ne gotiations for the funding of the national debt of Honduras now under way he said would doubtless receive the approval of this government. The Panana canal and the Pan-American railway, Mr. Knox de clared, would both be great factors In tho peaceful development of Latin-America, In conclusion Mr. Knox said: Predicts World Federation. "We have,- Indeed, as is right, firmly maintained our national sovereignty and dignrty and the rights ot our cltlxen. and we have not avoided war when honor and duty have Invoked that atern arbitrament Nevertheless, we have loyally submitted ourselves to the control of the Ideals of peace and to the principle of International comity and good will; and we have exerted y our Influence and good offices to guide nd aid others along that path. We have not, indeed, stood alone In that attitude, but have acted In concert with other power w iiu lecutfiuse me same nign call and seek Ilia same xreat ends. "We have reached a nnint vUn if i evident that the future holds In store a time whea wars shall cease; when the na tion of tho world shall realise a federa tion as real and vital as that now ub Itlng between the component part of a Ingle state; when by deliberate Interna tional conjunction the strong shall univer sally help the weak, and w hen the corpor ate righteousness ot the world shall compel unrighteousness to disappear and shall de stroy the habitations of cruelty still lin gering In the dark places ot the earth. This "the spirit of the wide world brooding s thing to come." That day will be the clillennlum, of course; but In some sens and degree it will surely be realised In this dis pensation of mortal time. "H 1 for this country lway to main tain its hlntorlo policy and attitude, to be true to this greatest duty of a nation, which la entirely consistent with all its Internal duties, to advance that time which the whole course of history and all divine prophecies and revelations alike presage."

College Men Needed on Farm and in Factories This ii Theme of Dr. Cyrus North rup's Address to Class at Univer sity of Iowa Yesterday. IOWA CITY, la.. June 15. (Special Tel eram.) "Country before party, nation be fore state, In a word the highest and best thing first means eternal 'life for the Amer ican nation." This was the keynote of the message brought to the graduates of the university of Iowa this morning by Presl dent C yrus Northrop of the university of Minnesota. "Higher education," said the speaker, must do more and more to dismiss the economic evils cf our country. When the college man, fresh from the halls of learn ing, reaches the farm I predict a lightning change In these hills and prairies. We must look to the college man to improve our mechanical arts and always must we encourage him to use his education to betterment of our country. The farmer and his farm are becoming vital mere and more, and more Is our legislature being filled with men straight from the farm than by those who In a measure prepare themselves for It, I would warn against the lack of good teachers. Embryo teachers should train themselves more thoroughly and should realize that In making their cholco as teachers they should make it a a lire choice, and devote themselves to It rather than make it as temporary employment.
