COLLEGE EXPERTS"
DIVIDED BETWEEN
"SWORD AND DOVE

Philadelphia, Pa. April 81
Widely divergent views, ranging
from those which urged absolute
crushing of German militarism as
the best means to durable peace,
to those that advocated q policy
of love and altruism as the only
way to end wars, signa1ized the
sessions today of the American
Academy Of Political and Social
Science. The general topic for
discussion was "America's rela-
ton to the world conflict and the
coming peace"
The thought OF the assemblage,
which included brilliant thinkers
from many sections OF the nation,
virtually arrnyed itself into two
camps, militaristic and pacillst.
Germc:l militarism was stamp.
ed as the final refuge of auto.
cracy and the duty Of the United
States was declared to be the
crushing of that militarism. Ger.
many should be forced, was the
assertion, to seek membership in
a federation OF the world, formed
to secure peace.
Opposed to this were the doc.
trines of International love and
altruism, declared to be the only
feasible and permanent means Of
bringing peace ON earth.
