W... , w, , to 1, MLTQ , A , . , af V ,f A chap named Kipling once emphatically stated that, East is East and West is West and never the twain shall meet. That cliche has been disproved almost as often as llllr. Shefter has called some quivering student down to his office for a heart to heart talk, or regents exams have been crammed for, on the night before the ordeal. Today more than ever the tantalizing charms of the Orient are wafting through Taft's doors from what seems to be just around the next corner, for the world is shrinking almost to a microscopic size. With such scientific advances as the rocket and more recently Sputniks l and ll, the celestial world is coming as near to us as lVlarco Polo considered the Orient in 1295, when it was a rich land with ancient wisdom, romantic splendor and exotic customs awaiting discovery. The enriching contributions given to the culture of the Occidental world by these Eastern peoples should not be taken lightly. Eight centuries later, after several devas- tating wars have taken their toll, we can readily see that understanding and helping the poverty stricken peoples living in trouble-ridden Asia are important steps on the road to peaceful co-existence! lllluch of the hope of successfully unifying Oriental and Occidental Worlds centers around learning to live together and accepting each other's customs and ways of life. Un- fortunately, many people are using these dif- ferences in customs as a basis for ugly racial prejudices and intolerance. Only when these are overcome can true progress be made. All of us trust that it won't be long before out of the age-old concept of East and West as two separate worlds will emerge one world, united both in peace and in understanding. , W. , , g, , an , 'Z' f tg ,5,w,Jwf,gg4,Lffa ,1.,, ,, ,...,4, f,,. h,.. , ,,.
