4 POSTWAR PLANS 1 War is everybody's business. We need only to pick up a newspaper or to look at the blue and gold stars hung in windows throughout the country. The war raging in Europe and in the Pacific has become of very deep concern to us. Isolationism bowed out at Pearl Harbor. We can no longer remain aloof from the quarrels of foreign natio whether they seem petty or no. TIS They are no longer far-distant countries but neighbors which lie only twenty-four air hours or less away. If we should allow a third world war to ferment we would not remain unscathed by enemy bombs and araments. Carrier-based planes and improved robot bombs can easily invade our present immunity from such attacks, To prevent a war which would be even more terrible and more destructive and far reaching then this present war has been we must establish an international peace and only through internation co-operation can we achieve this goal. The peace treaty which follows this war must not be another Versailles which has proved far too inadequate. In the Atlantic Charter, at Yalta5 Teheran, at Dumbarton Gaks, Chapultepec and at the San Francisco conference the leaders of the world met, discussed and debated plans for an International peace organization. But the decision of whether we became an acting member of this organization or not, rests with the people of the United States. Not only must we support an Inter- national organization but we must understand the problems which will exist when final peace is won and how the Unit Nations plan to solve and remedy them. We must also be ready to make some sacrifices. No agreement can be reached if all seventy-odd nations of the world refuse to compromise or to give in. The sacrifices we will be asked to make will be inconsequential to the hardships endured by the inhabitan of the countries occupied by our enemies during this war. ed So let us all follow the suggestions of our Secretary of State Stettinius and participate in discussions of the peace platform plans and make up our minds about them CONNIE LAGRENADE '45 Editor ts
