Permanent peace among the nations
Of the earth can only be accomplished
by the proper education of all peoples
in the fundamentals of civilization,
humanity and democracy, according to
Rev. Charles F. Dole, noted author, edu-
Gator and pacifcist who is visiting in
Honolulu.
Unlike most peace propagandists, DIR.
Dole has no pet process for immediate
ending all war that he produces as
panacea for strife between nations.
"Though l am a member of many
peace societies" said Doctor Dole, II
advocate no particular theory or meth
cd of forcing the nations of the world
from engaging in international strife.
To enforce peace would be to propagate
the very things that produce war
fear, suspicion and jealousy.
"Universal and lasting peace among
nations can be brought about only by
n process of education, instilling int3
the peoples of the earth the folly and
senselessness of war.
Must Change Society
Permanent peace cannot be estab-
lished on the foundation of present con-
ditiOrs in society. The advocacy of
peace is of small import beside the ad-
VOcacy of civilization, humanity and
democracy. Education of nations in
peace can only be accomplished by edu-
cation of nations as well as individuals
in the principles of civilization, human
ity and democracy. These things come
before peace.
1.-THE attack should be directed not
against war but against the things that
make war-fear, jealousy and suspic-
ion. And these are the attributes of
society's present constitution that
must be removed to end war.
1.-THE proper condition of any human
being is spirit of good will. ReTig.
ion, Christianity, means love. But love
is but an outgrowth of good will, gen
| erosity to ones fellow men, democracy,
humanity, civilization. War means the
casting aside of these principles, the
treading down of religion and the ex-
istence between nations of conditions
| that we do not desire between individ.
uals.
Golden Rule Needed
''The Golden Rule is not alone ap
| plicnble to individuals. Business
| groups of Individuals, has long ago rec.
| OGmZed that best results can be oh.
tanned by Application of the Golden
| Rule. And the Golden Rule is Just as
much necessary and will be Just as
beneficial and successful between ma
| tons
We do not go about day by day liv-
ing i'll constant fear and jealousy and
suspicion of our ncighbOrs. Why,
then, should We as nations act thusf
BUSINESS is no longer run on this basis;
II is turning from competition to CO.
operation.
" Religion, philosophy, humanity and
democracy are as much proper condi-
tons between natiOnL as between indi.
vlduais, and not until people are edu-
Gated to this point of view can we hope
to adopt any successful international
movements for enforcing peace or
agreeing to peace.
off you throw religion over as be
tween nations, you will get the same re.
| srlt as when you throw religion over
as between individuals. Only by the
rules of religion can we live in peace,
nationally or individually.
"TO cast aside these h,sr PRINCIPLES
and revert to conditions of fear, zeal
.CuSy and suspicion, which is another
way Of saying commercial greed and
imperialism, and then make rules for
this condition of strife, is laughable.
War is war, and no rules can change it,
There is no humanity in war. 1t is a
hideous, frightful thing, and to make
rules for war is like making rules for
the jungle beasts to fight under.
War of Imperialism
at has been said that this Is a war
to protect the little nations. 1t is not.
1t is a war of imperialism. a war of
} commercial greed, brought about by in
trrnational fear, jealousy and suspicion.
And only education away from this
condition between nations can pave
the way for permanent peace"
