Quotes by Richard Panchyk  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“1920 the Americans had helped create the League of Nations, an early form of the United Nations, President Woodrow Wilson could not get support in Congress and the United States did not join the League. Most Americans were content to have their country stay out of world politics. This policy was called “isolationism.” Still, when France called on America to sign a pact banning wars, the United States was interested. Why not invite other countries”
