UNITED NATIONS
»ir,-World government is an ugly obsession of the master mind. Unity does not lie in the deserts of remote control, neither do we serve democracy by extending its lines of communication. Organisation cannot protect us from aggression against the individual, for corruption grows with the size of the office and it makes no difference that it is an elected one if the electors can be kept at a safe distance. There is little resemblance between our own police force and any international invention for keeping the peace. International law would take generations
to evolve, and until it does so we must be on our guard against executive action by the United Nations.
