A word in conclusion to the Mayor Newton D. Baker, Bascom Little and the people of Cleveland. Partly by chance and partly by design this almost matchlessly beautiful lake city was selected for the initial sessions of the World Congress. By municipal experts the world over, Cleveland is counted one of the greatest accomplishments in latter-day city building extant. Environment is everything and I shall always believe that so much was accomplished at the Congress because of the perfection of arrangements and the fitting surroundings to say nothing of the incomparable hospitality of the city. Since my return to New York and the offices of the International Peace Forum, I have been besieged with inquiries in relation to these accomplishments. Beginning with the month of July, a great magazine entitled THE WORLD COURT published under the auspices of the International Peace Forum will make its appearance on the book stalls. Many of these inquiries will then be answered. Its main purpose will be to advocate the establishment of a World Court which I am almost prone to prophesy is already assured. In addition the magazine will carry departments of Art, Music, Literature, the Drama and Information. Its editors and contributors will be eminent men of letters and it will carry a department under the title of “World Comment” which will hold and interest every thinking man in this and other lands. This magazine will have many kind words for Cleveland. That city itself may well feel proud of its achievements in behalf of the World Congress and a World Court. And for a surety it was an epoch and an honor in the brilliant history of that great city. When the World Court is established the name of the city of Cleveland will ever be associated with it. And the two names will spell peace—International, national, commercial, and industrial peace—the peace that passeth all understanding and the peace that a tired world is crying for with that soul-racking wail that comes only from the soul of a strong and helpless man. * * * * * I shall never forget the evening of the last session of the Congress. As I wended my way out of the armory, the city arose before me in all its multicolored splendor—the passing throngs of men whose martial air proclaimed their success as plain as the gold lettering on the haberdasher’s windows, the beautifully gowned and garmented women and the streets and avenues in all their kaleidoscopic picturesqueness. And then another picture of the cities of the old world laid bare in want and woe and war. God forfend such ill fortune to you, Cleveland, in the evil days for assuredly you have contributed your share to the Cause of Peace. REVIEW OF BOOKS
