Richard Wood speaks on International Peace Day

Richard Wood, secretary of the Friends' Peace committee, responded to Professor Prince's support for "consecrated force" on International Peace Day. According to Wood, "there is no agreement among nations as to which national force is consecrated" due the nature of war. As a result, Wood claimed the problem of peace was not removing the causes of war but "substituting another method of settling certain inevitable disputes." Wood argued that the League of Nations provided a successful alternative method for peacefully ending disputes.
