gradually, in the course of many hundreds of 

 thousands of years, reversed." In some 

 • speeches often unmerited blame was bestowed 

 on systems of government or on government 

 officials without a due consideration of the 

 special circumstances or the difficulties of the 

 situation. What so many ardent spirits can 

 not appreciate is that safe progress is slow 

 progress and that compromises have to be 

 made. Another fallacy was manifest in the 

 belief that one system of government is suit- 

 able for all types of humanity. But most of 

 the obvious defects were just those which were 

 practically inevitable ; the delegates and others 

 were mainly those who came in response to 

 strong emotion, and desired to draw attention 

 to their own or their friends' grievances. 



The social atmosphere was highly charged. 

 They wanted things said in the hope of get- 

 ting things done. Each fanned the flame of 

 his own enthusiasm and that of others. There 

 is no doubt that the congress has resulted in 

 much friendliness between members of differ- 

 ent nations, perhaps some misunderstandings 

 have been removed, conscience has been stim- 

 ulated, but the prosaic work remains to be 

 done.
