His Fellow-Countrymen August 30, 1906The people are entitled to know what is being done to promote their welfare and the men who are doing it, in order that they may approve the things that pertain to their peace, and support the men who dare to take a stand for the realization of these things.It has been my good fortune to come in touch with leading statesmen who are doing the things that make for the peace of the world. It is my duty to them and to the people to make public the facts which have come to my knowledge.I was present at the great Peace Congress at London on July 23d, 1906, which resulted in a declaration, by over five hundred members of the world's most important Parliaments, in favor of ideas whose adoption by the governments will make peace and justice in international affairs not only a possibility, but a reality.After the Brussels session of this Union of the World's Parliaments, it was my privilege to visit the homes of several of the great statesmen, whose stand in favor of the plan proposed at Brussels by Hon. Richard Bartholdt, resulted in the progressive action taken by the London Conference.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
