If the nations are unable to agree upon arbitrators. the umpire must be selected by lot. In other words. these gentlemen who so highly praise this method apparently are entirely content. if we submit a case to arbitrators and we can not agree as to who the judge shall be who will decide our rights and our interests In that dispute. that he shall be chosen by the throwing of dice or the flipping of a coin. Some of our opponents also tell us that if we join the World Court we shall be compelled to submit to that court the interpretation of the Monroe doctrine. the question of immigration. the settlement of the foreign debt to the United States. and similar questions. It Is hard to be patient with those who make this contention. I think it a fair statement that no one should venture to express an opinion as to the powers of this court unless he had first read the statute creating itand. of course.
