TAFT, WILLIAM HOWARD. Taft papers on League of nations. *$4.50 Macmillan 341.1
20–19170
The papers are edited by Theodore Marburg and Horace E. Flack and the former, in a long introduction, sets forth the reasons why they are an evidence of the ex-president’s grasp of the guiding legal principles of our government and of the attitude of mind which the best thought and feeling of the country heartily accept as true Americanism. Among the papers are: League to enforce peace; The Paris covenant for a league of nations; Constitutionality of the proposals; The purposes of the League; Self determination; Workingmen and the League; Why a league of nations is necessary; Disarmament of nations and freedom of the seas; President Wilson and the League of nations; Senator Lodge on the League of nations; Representation in the League; Ireland and the League; Answer to Senator Knox’s indictment; Guaranties of article X. The book is indexed.
“Although this important collection of documents appears subsequent to the conclusion of the ‘solemn referendum,’ and the fall of Wilsonism in our country, it will doubtless prove of great value when the new régime shall come in and the whole question of the League of nations shall be definitely disposed of.” E. J. C.
