We should forget any hostile feelings we have against the war aggressing countries, and be more friendly, noble, and patient toward them. Fear should never dominate our hearts. Every time the atomic bomb is mentioned we shudder, because people are constantly thinking that Russia has the atomic secret also, and that she will use it on us. This is unwise since there is no definite proof that she has it, and we should not jump to conclusions. In the near future it will be used to reconvert our world. Our scien- tists are continuously developing new ideas and plans to change our daily routine of life into a cheaper and a more modernized living. If the future could be portrayed for us, perhaps we would forget all our fears. National sovereignty seems to have always been the goal of some European countries. This must be forever demolished because it can never be successful, and it has only brought destruction since the be- ginning of history. All the nations will have to cooperate before we can have world peace. We should continue showing our good will by sending food and clothing to the devastated countries in both Europe and Asia. Propaganda, one of the greatest dangers of everlasting peace, must be abolished. It has existed since the beginning of time, and brings only harm to everyone. Some important points, we should pledge to follow are: never allow your feelings to substitute for your thinkingg never believe everything you hear on the radio or read in the newspaper, as the whole story is hardly ever printed or reported. The columnists and press agents usually tell only the best part of the truth. The United Nations is doing its best to put the war torn countries on their feet again, but every- time an issue to be voted upon is brought forth, Rus sia vetoes it. As long as Russia continues being stub- born, progress will be slow, but we have to be patie Tlt, and hope that soon she will wake up and realize the unnecessary trouble she is causing. No problem is insolvable, and the UN is helping to understand the foreign people, their customs, and their theory of a government. The military training bill is quite a debatable issue today. lt might seem undemocratic to have com- pulsory training, but boys of 18 years of age are just beginning their lives in the world alone. Not only will it teach them the duties of manhood and citizenship, but it will train them to combat the future trouble immediately, and reduce the death rate of both servicemen and civilians. Our political leaders are doing much to prevent a World War III by showing how wrong it is to always talk of another war. Russia is not physically able to fight another war for a few years yet, and it makes her think we are arming ourselves when we speak of a future war. If we cannot make a world settlement, and do nothing but fight wars, why what benefit did it do our forefathers to lose their lives fighting for America and democracy? For generations these ancestors fought for the preservance of the United States, and it is our moral obligation to protect our country. We want our children to be as proud of us as we are of these great heroes for what they have given us. What would the boys who lost their lives in the last war say if they were able to see the present condi- tions? Remember they lost their lives so that we might enjoy ourselves. Your Bill of Rights was paid for in agony of blood, and the charter of American liberty can be pre- served only by eternal vigilance. As soon as the necessity of having world peace is conveyed throughout the world, the better off the world will be. ' PEARL CARO, Editor. Our Generation knows, as no generation before it has ever known, that peace must be made. If we mean when we talk of peace that nothing this time will stop us from making peace-that neither lies nor deceptions nor tricks nor our own weariness will prevent us-if we mean this we can speak of peace to the living and dead without shame. For nothing is true or honest in the talk of peace but our own purpose. And the choice is ours.-Archibald Mac Leish.
