We Must Keep On Trying

As A Civilian During The Second War, I Was Exposed To Danger In Circumstances Which Removed Any Distinction Between The Man In And The Man Out Of Uniform.

I Have Worked In A Very Close And Cordial Way With Norwegian Representatives At Many International Meetings, And The Pleasure I Felt At Those Associations Was Equaled Only By The Profit I Always Secured From Them.

Today Continuing Poverty And Distress Are A Deeper And More Important Cause Of International Tensions, Of The Conditions That Can Produce War, Than Previously.

The Life Of States Cannot, Any More Than The Life Of Individuals, Be Conditioned By The Force And The Will Of A Unit, However Powerful, But By The Consensus Of A Group, Which Must One Day Include All States.

The Best Defence Of Peace Is Not Power, But The Removal Of The Causes Of War, And International Agreements Which Will Put Peace On A Stronger Foundation, Than The Terror Of Destruction.
