ANOTHER WAR FEARED.
AMERICA NOT HELPFUL.
OPINION OF MR. H. G. WELLS.
LONDON", July XL
" I think that the world is drifting fast toward another great war, because wa find extraordinary difficulty in turning our feet toward the paths leading to peace," said Mr. H. G. Wells, in a broadcast speech.
" The League of Nations was an American idea, but now it is a mere debating society because the Americans are too patriotic to allow their freedom of action in foreign affairs to be lettered by international control. There can be only ona world State in the worl That is tho basic fact of the peace problem in a nutshell. We must cease to be national,, putting world peace before patriotism."
