diplomacy relate, first of all, to its own national interests. These it must seek to eafeguard. But it is a purblind diplomacy which, in this age of the world, does not see that no nation liveth unta it- self and no nation dieth unto itself. Especially in Europe aro the great rowers bound up in the same bundle. No Chancellor, no Foreign Secretary, no King, no President, no political party, no Government, can forget for a moment that any act markedly affecting international relationa: carries with it the possibilities of universal "diatorbance.

In its truest and highest sen- se, diplomaoy means the exaltation of reason in the management of world-affairs; the ability to draw upon all the resources of concilia- tion and fair play in order to prevent the immense catastrophes of widespread war. And it is, unhappily, in this its noblest func tion that European diplomacy appears to have broken down.
