Nothing and that is the point of the novel. All of the boys, Ralph included, eventually give in to their innate savagery through time as they gradually lose the influence of the old society of morals and regulations and descend into corruption and savagery innate in human nature without the restraint of society. Ralph did simply everything he could given the deteriorating situation, trying to implement law and civility into the boys but his efforts were lost in the frenzy of the innate savagery emerging from themselves. As we see towards the end of the novel, even Ralph forgets the importance and hope of the fire signal and participates in a hunt and is involved in the murder of Simon. They were helpless to themselves.
