The book Proceedings Of The Second National Peace Congress: Chicago, May 2-5, 1909 is a compilation of the speeches, discussions, and resolutions passed during the second National Peace Congress held in Chicago in 1909. The book is authored by Charles E. Beals, who was the secretary of the Congress. The Congress was organized to promote peace and international understanding and to find ways to prevent wars. The book contains speeches by prominent peace advocates, including Jane Addams, William Jennings Bryan, and Andrew Carnegie. The discussions revolve around issues such as disarmament, arbitration, and the role of education in promoting peace. The resolutions passed by the Congress include recommendations for the establishment of an international court of justice, the creation of a permanent peace bureau, and the promotion of peace education in schools. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the peace movement in the United States and the efforts made to prevent wars.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
