Excerpt from The Genoa ConferenceThat is the old world - a world which has tortured itself, exhausted itself, shattered itself, almost to final ruin and collapse.The new world has a different faith and a different point of View. It believes in nationalism no less firmly than the old, for nationalism is the individual force, the genius, the salt in every varied impulse which makes up Western Civiliza tion as a whole. But it also believes with its whole heart that in the welter of passion, and in the economic chaos to which the world has been reduced by war, the welfare of every nation depends upon peace, co-operation, a helping hand from the strong to the weak, a regard for the welfare of all.The British Empire Delegation stood for that faith at Genoa, and had behind it, as I believe, the goodwill and the deep desire of a majority of all true democracies throughout the world. The campaign for peace is only beginning. We have won positions from which we must press forward again. We are bivouacked on the field. We must not rest till we have won.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
