promote permanent international peace, to educate and organize public opinion in opposition to war as a
means of settling international differences, and to ad vance in every proper way the general use of conciliation,
judicial methods, and other peaceful means of avoiding and adjusting such differences."
HISTORICAL BACKGROUND
The American Peace Society was founded at New
York in 1828; incorporated at Boston in 1848; moved
to Washington^ D. C, in 1911.
"At a meeting of the Maine Peace Society at Minot,
February 10, 1826, a motion was carried to form a national
peace society. Minot was the home of William Ladd. The
first constitution for a national peace society was drawn by
this illustrious man, at the time corresponding secretary of
the Massachusetts Peace Society. The constitution was
provisionally adopted, with alternations, February 18, 1828,
but the society was finally and officially organized, through
the influence of Mr. Ladd, May 8, 1828, and with the aid
of David Low Dodge, in New York City. Mr. Dodge wrote,
in the minutes of the New York Peace Society: 'The New
York Peace Society resolved to be merged in the American
Peace Society . . . which, in fact, was a dissolution of
the old New York Peace Society, formed 16 August, 1815,
and the American, May, 1828, was substituted in its place.'"
MEMBERSHIP
Membership in the Society is open to all persons who
desire to aid in putting an end to the evil of war, and in
extending the reign of law and of good-will among the
nations.
ADVOCATE OF PEACE
The Society publishes Advocate of Peace monthly at two dollars per year, as well as other literature the
price-list of which may be secured upon application.
