Excerpt from Constitutional Power and World Affairs For four years the world has been swept and tossed by a great storm of human passion. Until very recently the only thing of which we could be certain was that the storm would pass and the sun of peace again appear, but when and under what circumstances, we could only guess. At last the skies have cleared and the end has come. In the natural world when the rain has ceased and the winds have fallen we look about to see what monarchs of the forest have been up-rooted, what new channels have been torn in the soil by flood and torrent along which the peaceful streams may thereafter flow. In the same way with the end of this war we may, with profit, look about us for the purpose of approximating the changes which have been wrought in the world, and the meaning and effect of these changes so far as we are ourselves concerned. In the midst of it, with the end in doubt, all we could foresee was that the familiar world which we had known and understood would forever pass away, and that a new and different world would be spread before our vision.
