Students Plan for World Peace The topic for the annual Senior Essay this year was World Peace . Such a topic is especially fitting at the present time because of the horrible war that is raging in Europe and the trouble that is brewing between the more important nations of the world. At the Seventh Annual Ideals Conference held in Fresno on April 3, one of the discussion groups was on the subject of Youth and World Peace. The underlying theme brought out in every discussion on the subject was the fact that the peace of the civilization of the future rests in the hands of today ' s youth. We must realize that if our world is to be made free from the ravages of war and the iron hand of dictatorship, a constructive plan must be in- itiated today whereby such a situation could be brought about. Universal peace and good will is a patient, logical building, step by step, as constant as evolution and as unfaltering as time. Countless plans have been suggested, and every proponent thinks that his brain child is the only appropriate one. There are pessi- mists and optimists who will give innumerable views on the subject, but through it all one fact remains. The time has come for a change, and only those who do not have the energy and initiative to undertake it can fail to see the need. One of the most logical plans that has been proposed is that the solution of the prob- lem lies in EDUCATION — primarily a revi- sion in the methods of teaching in regard to militarism and peace. The first step in such a plan might be a change in the manner our young people are trained in the home. This would alter their view-point and allow them to look at the subject of peace and war with minds that are unbiased by prejudice. In many of the countries of the world, especially Ger- many, children are taught that the greatest honor attainable is to die for their country. They are taught to blindly worship their lead- er, even though he may be a ruthless dictator determined to destroy the very civilization of which they are a part. All of this is good pa- triotic sentiment, but what does it get us be- sides heartbreaks and destruction? The next step to attain would be a revi- sion in our system of teaching in the schools and universities on the subject of war. This could be begun by a revision of textbooks deal- ing with the subject. They should be made up-to-date and not continue to cling to the idea of hatred that is so prevalent. It is only when we can understand and analyze a situ- ation that we can constructively work to over- come it. At present vivid pictures are painted in our minds of the horrors and terrors of war, but we are not taught how to prevent them. We are not told that it is the job of youth to build upon past experience and actually make plans whereby peace can be effected. When all this is accomplished we have laid a solid foun- dation on which to build. Such a system could then be extended. By wider use of the radio and the control of hos- tile propaganda, nations could be brought in- to closer contact with each other. The habits and peculiarities of other countries could be learned and allowances made. By expositions of the fine and applied arts the culture of other races could be studied. By means of interna- tional forums and student correspondence edu- cational facilities could be brought together and the topic made universal. By means of all these things just mentioned race prejudice could be entirely done away with and in its place a great amelioration between the nations of the world. A challenge has been made to the youth of today. Let us meet this challenge squarely, and fight with every fibre to overcome the monster of war, lest it overcome us.
