life, satisfy the
needs and adjust the relationships of all races and peoples. A
world executive, backed by an international Force, will carry out
the decisions arrived at, and apply the laws enacted by, this
world legislature, and will safeguard the organic unity of the
whole commonwealth. A world tribunal will adjudicate and deliver
its compulsory and final verdict in all and any disputes that may
arise between the various elements constituting this universal

understanding and co-operation. The causes of religious strife
will be permanently removed, economic barriers and restrictions
will be completely abolished, and the inordinate distinction
between classes will be obliterated. Destitution on
