As the several sovereign states voluntarily relinquished certain of their claims of sovereignty and thus realized a higher political unity, so a grander union of mankind than is possible by international treaties will be realized when the nations, surrendering their claims of sovereignty in such respects as shall be found necessary and practicable, come formally into the unity in which they already exist by the very laws of their being."]
