The Globe Trotter
PueriIe Plans For Peace

be sold TO the world as the
path to a just and durable
peace Is extremely hard to
conceive. How can there be
permanent peace when one
man keeps his heel on the neck
of another?
For example, Mr.. Culbertson
who. Judging from his plan, quail
fies better as bridge expert than
he does as an international strate-
gist, actually thinks he can pre-
vent future wars by merely max
ing all the enslaved Europeans
free once more, while doing moth
ing to change the serfdom status
of the millions in Africa, India
and all of the islands of the seas.
SAME OLD EXCUSE
In arguing that colonial peoples
are not ready for self-government,
Mr.. Culbertson utilizes the same
excuse put forth by Winston
Churchill and General Smuts of
South Africa. After coming to this
conclusion, he consigns their fate
right back to the imperialistic
powers which in the past, have
subjugated and exploited them,
giving these nations the arbitrary
power to decide when these peoples
are ready to rule themselves.
This plan is akin to q man
committing a crime, then serv-
ing as his own judge, jury, de-
fense counsel and prosecutor.
There could not be the least
doubt about the verdict. Ger
tainly it is not a plan that will
cause any great resurgence Of
hope to rise in the breasts Of
the millions Of the worlds
darker peoples now fighting
and dying for freedom.
The World Police Force" plan
of Senators Ball, Hill, Hatch and
Burton is no better. The scheme
would merely supplement one rule
by force for another. It would guar

less that the status Of the worlds

unchanged It would do nothing
Ito wipe out this unjust exploita-
ton. 1t offers nothing in the way
of hope that the -Four Freedoms
principle would become universally
real to all who are now contribut-
ing to the victory effort.
BASIC ISSUE EvADED
The plan purposely, but blindly
evades discussion of the basic
cause of this war and all past
wars - inequality, economic, po-
litical and racial Under it, India
a province of $50 millions, would
continue to be dominated by Great
Britain's fifty millions. Neither
Malayans, Javanese, West Afri-
cans, Jamaicans, nor West Indians
would be given the right of self
government and seff-determina-
tiOn.
The Leagues charter does
concede the necessity of ac-
cording equal opportunity to
all peoples" but after saying
this makes no concrete sugges-
tiOn to make this basic factor
of permanent peace a reality.
All three of these proposals
point with telling effect to the
dire need Of peace planning on
global scale, just as we are prose-
cutting this war on a global scale.
A peace designed to maintain i'm
perialistic exploitation, white SUI
premacy and human subjugation
is a peace which will only serve as
fertile ground on which to sow
seeds for future conflict.
INVITING A GREATER WAR
The issue by this time certainly
should be clear to even the most
obtuse. There can be no just, dur
able peace unless that peace con-
cedes freedom and full equality to
all of the worlds peoples
Any plan, whether it be suggest
ed by a card expert or group Of
United States Senators, which does
not recognize this fundamentally
basic principle, is one that merely
invites bigger and bloodier wars.

to consideration is difficult to un-
derstand,

Preaching Of
Brotherhood
BY DAVID N. HOWELL

KNOXVILLE, Tenn CAMP =
Speaking before the Knoxville Ex-
change club this week on ''The
Church and Postwar Planning
the Rev. Walter L. Russell, hbera,
minister of the Trinity Methodist
Church, white, declared that the
major issue before us in our post
war planning is that of interracial
understanding"
"If We of the white race are to
help plan a postwar world in
which there will be peace, We
must climb down from our pedestal
of racial superiority and conceit,''
he declared. Before we can begin
to face the problem of racial un-
derstanding across the Pacific we
must face it here at home with the
Negro in the south. the Jew in
New York, the Japanese on the
west coast :"
Declaring that the teaching of
the Fatherhood CT God coupled

kind has done more to pave the
way for the international outlook
necessary in the postwar world
than any other thing, he said,
the church, though unpopular in
So doing with certain people, must
more fervently than ever preach
it's gospel Of the brotherhood Of
all mankind.
Otner issues involved, Mr.. Rus
sell stated, are "the narrow nation
alism preached by the isolation
lists" and the economic conditions
facing us in the postwar world
which must be faced by all Of us.
There is one phase of unemploy-
ment the church must face and do
something about it. That problem
lies in dealing with those men
who return from the war, may be
not wounded in the flesh, but so
shaken and torn in their nervous
systems they will be neurotic."
