SOMEONE HAS SAID THAT EDUCATION IS THE BRIDGE TO THE FUTURE. The author could have said with equal emphasis that EDU- CATION IS THE BRIDGE TO FUTURE PEACE. Those who approach this bridge will discover that it has an unlimited number of traffic lanes because education, to be successful, must pro- vide for individual differences, in character traits, capacities and ambitions. A new and complex world will depend for its skills, emo- tions. philosophies and morals upon those edu- cational travelers who persevere until the bridge has been crossed. Whether the new world will be destroyed by man made machines, as some observers believe, or will become a happy place for all mankind seems to depend upon educational results. Mass production, modern medicine and sur- gery, and scientific developments such as radar, television, jet propulsion planes, and atomic energy can make the new world a glor- ious adventure for those prepared to under- stand and appreciate it. On the other hand, scientists tell us that one more world war with the use of the atomic bomb will destroy civiliza- tion. Such a prospect makes peace the supreme need of the hour. The successful conclusion of World War II liberated many countries from the tyranny of foreign and domestic dictator- ship. However, peace cannot be permanent until the liberated peoples of the earth have food, shelter and hope of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Peace is not a gift. It must be worked for and it must be earned. The youth MR. LEROY NICHOLS the superintentlent of the world can afford to work with the utmost zeal and energy for it since it is their most cov- eted possession. American youth of today, if prepared, will have the capacity and opportun- ity in the near future to direct America, the most powerful country on earth, in leading the world to a satisfying and lasting peace. May all American youth be genuinely indoctrinated with the type of education that will be a bridge to future peace. LEROY NICHOLS
