Internationalism in Education
Working for Peace

One of the most promising in
fluences for world peace is the pres
ent trend toward characterization of
education" writes Clyde Eagleton,
Professor of International Law, New
York University in the Current His
tory Magazine. The World War, he
suggests, was partly due to the zig
norance and narrow vision of In
dividual nations" To combat this
evil there has recently grown up a
world wide movement which "aims to
bring nations closer together through
the medium of the classroom"
Many and varied activities are en-
braced in the new movement" Pro-
lessor Eagletor explains Colleges
have extended their curriculum to
include courses having an interna-
tional appeal. New institutions de-
voted to the specific aim of training
students to familiarize themselves
with the history, culture and tradi-
tons of other countries besides their
own, have come into being. Among
these institutions Professor Eagleton
cites the Academy of International
Law which was opened at The
Hague in 1923 and which is financially
assisted by the Carnegie Endowment
for international Peace.
Other indications of growing In
terest along these lines are plentiful.
Observing that lack of finances has
hitherto handicapped students who
sought to broaden their outlook by
travel Professor Eagleton writes
that these difficulties have been allie
waited in various ways-by the estab-
lishment of more fellowships for for
eign study the creation OF many new
Independently endowed foundations
and the special provision by civic So
cieties for economic summer tours
abroad.
Viewing the prospect generally,
Professor Eagleton find it promises
much for better international rela-
tons, and he concludes with the OBJ
servation that "as democratic govern
ment develops 1t becomes more and
more clear that it's success depends
upon an educated public opinion"

bR0ADCASTING
ST A TON IN
NEW RECORD

From Honolulu to Timbuctoo'-
this was the distance claimed for the
new broadcasting station, WJR, in the
dedication talk broadcast by the sta
ton Saturday night, August 10. Per
haps the announcer didn't realize at
that time how nearly correct his claim
was, because less than a week hitter
the program was broadcast, letters
have been received from every state
east of the Rocky Mountains, and
in addition to that, kilograms from
Petersburg. Alaska, and Windsor
British Columbia.
The audience that greeted WJR on
its initial bow TO the radio world was
a very considerable, interested and re,
sponsivc one. Its response was of the
best type. When a member of this
audience appreciated certain parts OF
the program. they were kind enough
to say so: and. with the same frank
ness, adverse criticism was given. This
is proof that the radio audience is now
learning that stations are not always
interested in bouquets" as much as
they are in vegetables" using thu
comparison drawn in reference to
stage productions. ss
Among the pleasant surprises re-
ceiyed in the mail was a letter from
Alex Nee. Ashley, 5 West Meiros6

was able to make perfect log OF the

Educators should be vitality con
cerned in the announcements OF super

u. J. Hermann. managing director OF

An International language is likely
TO become a necessity within a very
few years, Mr.. Hermann believes.
when trans-oceanic transmission OF
musical and oratorical programs viii
be regular features to delight people OF
many nations.
"a determination Of what this inter.
national language will be must now be
arrived at" contends Mr.. Hermann.
Realizing this, advocates Of ITO and
Esperanto are debating the question
more emphatically than ever. Oi
course. English now encircles the globe
as the Language Of trade and increasing
use IN diplomacy, and there are. strong
reasons why il should be adopted as
the universal tongue"
