I -it al I l l 1 1 llllllllllllll In today's world of conflict we should stop to consider how fortunate we are in that we are not a part of this turmoil and upheaval. Never has there been a more appropriate time for us to realize the effect of mutual dependence of countries desirous of preserving peace, as are North, South, and Central America. This spirit of cooperation among the Americas can best be fulfilled through a belief in the ideals which these countries hold in common. The elimination of suspicion and jealousy is one great step toward the founding of mutual understanding. Barriers of doubt and apprehension which often exist between powerful nations are lowered by neighborly trade negotia- tions, the foundation of Pan-Americanism. This is a fundamental step in the building of a permanent peace. We have chosen Pan-Americanism as the theme of our book' in the hope that the ideals of cooperation which are suggested by it will encourage and inspire those of us who are soon to assume in full the responsibilities and privileges of citizens of the United States of America. With this as the theme of our annual, the 1940 Megaphone is presented to you with the good wishes of the staff. - The Editor
