The article provides discussion on various topics. That many American peace groups are moving toward a collective-security policy was very much in evidence at the Conference on World Economic Cooperation sponsored by the National Peace Conference. The delegates refused to delete the section of the experts' report which emphasized present-day political insecurity and urged revision of the U.S. Neutrality Act to distinguish between aggressors and their victims, although the isolationists had leveled their heaviest artillery against those recommendations. But the conference retreated when it came to the problems arising from aggression. Efforts to bring the Spanish crisis before the meeting were frustrated.
