THE leading French military organ, Armee et Marine (Paris), in a recent utterance descriptive of the present military outlook, expressed its view of the idea of a coming disarmament and millennium of peace, by saying:—

Haunted by ideas more generous than practical, a social school which has adepts in all lands soothes itself with the beautiful dream of general peace. Disarmament and arbitration are the catchwords fondly repeated in a special press and a special literature. But the facts of all ages and the life of all mankind belie at every step the possibility of such a universal accord.
