PEA CE THE students who proposed a professorship of peace as a war memorial had the right idea, even if there were difficulties in working it out. They recognized that the only adequate tribute to the fallen is to see that their sacrifice is not in vain, that the causes of war are sougt out and rooted, out. They realized that peace is not a negative thing, the mere absence of war, but a positive, dynamic force generated in the minds of men dedicated to the cause of law and justice. The plain speaking that has characterized our postfwar diplomacy has given an impression of a world anything but peaceful. But it is better to have all the dangers clearly indicated than to say, Peace, peaceg when there is no peace. Then men of good will can set themselves to remove the causes of friction. Moreover, the stirrings and strivings after more political freedom in various parts of the world need to be guided, not suppressed. The conditions of peace can never be static in a changing world, and people who devote themselves to maintaining the status quo are no true friends of peace. ' The United Nations Charter does not of itself guarantee peace and security, the opportunity to build a better world in an atmosphere of freedom from fear. It merely provides machinery which may be used to achieve that end, if men have a mind to work it unselfishly. What is needed, then, is a change in the hearts of men. Nothing less than a great spiritual awakening can create the conditions of peace. Graduates of the University of Alberta are expected to be enlightf ened citizens, who take a positive stand on every important issue. If they speak out plainly, their influence will soon spread and be multiplied. No issue transcends in importance the maintenance of a just peace. For what says the law? Te shall not therefore oppress one another, but thou shalt fear thy God: for I am the Lor-d your God. Wherefore ye shall do my statutes, and keep my judgments, and do therng and ye shall dwell in the land in safety. LEV. 25: l7f18. Roherf Newton PRESIDENT.
