26 THE GRUMBLER Roosevelte Last We r cl s on Peace Helen Taylor. A Xlll A On the night before his death, President Roosevelt wrote the following words on peace, If civi- lization is to survive, we must cultivate the science of human relationships-the ability of all peoples, of all kinds, to live to- gether in the same world at peace. This was not an original plea. Peace-loving statesmen for cen- turies have believed that world peace could be accomplished only by the aid of all the peoples of all the world. President Roosevelt's words were significant because they were put forth at a time when their truth and urgency were ap- preciated. At no other time in history has there been a greater need for world security. World citizens realize that development in science has reached a stage where civilization could destroy itself. We are sobered at the fatal possibilities of an atomic war. We know that if perpetual peace is to be achieved, man must learn to live with man. The theory is as simple as that, but because human nature is com- plex, the application proves very difficult. The answer may lie in education. Hitler proved the success of in- stilling a doctrine into youth. The boys and girls of Germany were taught to hate, to covet, and to destroy. How much simpler it would be to cultivate the good in children, and supplant hate, jeal- ousy and suspicion with courtesy, co-operation and good will! Educa- tion for peace need not stop at the elementary classes, but should ex- pand into the collegiates and uni- versities. Many schools today are increasing their curriculum to in- clude a variety of new subjects, but they still lack a course in the art of living harmoniously with each other. To face this new era in world history, the student should leave school with a broad know- ledge of international relationships and world wide social conditions, in order that he may understand problems of other countries fully and be more tolerant toward them. The golden rule may be old- fashioned in the sophisticated world of today, but it is a funda- mental principle we must follow if world harmony is to be achieved.
