Must Lead World
Into Path Of Peace
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, May 24.-Asserting
that the United States must lead
the world in peace. Bernard M.
Baruch declared last night that
when the war is over no country
will be able to improve the we'll
being of its people without our
help"
In receiving the Churchman'S
1914 award "for the promotion of
good will and better understanding
among all peoples" Mr.. Baruch,
adviser to President Roosevelt, said:
Peace will be almost meaningless
without betterment of daily exis-
tence. In that crisis Uncle Sam will
show himself to be neither profligate
nor parsimonious. He will be fair,
and that means to himself as well
as to others"

man were Justice Jackson of the
Supreme Court, Secretary of the
Navy Forrestal and William Jeffers,
former rubber director for the War
Production Board.
Justice jackson declared there
can be no real basis for a tribunal
to settle international disputes "un-
til we are prepared to concede that
a larger welfare and a higher good
than our own national policy" must
guide its decisions.
IF that could be understood
throughout the world, as we Eng
disappearing peoples understand it,
people might learn that, in many
disputes, at least there is an honor
able alternative to war;" Justice
Jackson said.
Must Agree on Objectives
Mr.. Byrnes declared the United
States material power and moral
influence today Is not exceeded or
even matched by any other nation"
and added that eff we now fail to
take our proper place in the post
war world it will be because we have
not the wisdom to know what we
want or the internal unity necessary
to achieve it,"
TT is not enough that we say,
as most of us do, that we want to
see America assume her rightful
position in world order" he con-
tinued. I'VE must agree among
ourselves as to what the rightful
position of America is and what
kind of world order we want. We
must face the fact that if we can
not agree among ourselves we will
