A 3-page, typewritten essay arguing for a formal, cooperative confederation of the world's nations to create a peaceful and just society. The essay first questions what form this confederation will take, and argues against global rule with the use of force. The author then suggests different structures for a world organization, including a global league overseeing smaller administrative groups broken down by region, a global Federation with a government structure similar to the United States, or a resurrected and restructured League of Nations. Also included are handwritten notes on the back of the essay's 3rd page and a business envelope with annotations in pencil.
