    NOTE ON THE BOK PEACE PLAN The announcement of the award of the Bok Peace Prize and the publication of the selected plan,1 while this book is in the press, lead me to make the following comments reenforcing the argument in favor of the plan sketched in the foregoing appendix. The essence of the Bok Peace Plan is the sug¬ gestion that the United States shall enter the Permanent Court of International Justice and shall cooperate with the League of Nations with¬ out full membership at present. The plan pro¬ poses also that Articles X and XVI of the Covenant of the League of Nations be either dropped altogether or so amended and changed as to eliminate any suggestion of a general agree¬ ment to use coercion for obtaining conformity to the pledges of the Covenant. 1 Chosen by a jury of eminent persons as “ The best practicable pla* by which the United States may cooperate with other nations to achieve and preserve the peace of the world.”
