ELY CULBERTS0N
PLAN HELD GREAT

Ely Culbertson's total peace
plan has firmly established him
as one of the outstanding thinkers
on problems of war and peace.
Regarded by many as the only
modem, concrete and realistic
system for world security so far
developed, mis- plan, in the opinion
of many authorities, is the only
workable solution of the problem
Of lasting peace.
Among them, Lancelot Hogben,
the British sociologist and mathe-
matician, says: my personal
view is that Ely Culbertson' S
plan is the most important con-
tribution to world peace that any
writet of our generation his am
writer of our generation has
made"
The son of a seventh generation
American and grandson of a Cos.
sack general, Mr.. Culbertson was
brought up in the Caucasus, Rus
STA and in Europe. He studied
systems of PHILOSOPHY and econom-
les in the leading universities OF
the world and he speaks eight
languages. Since youth he has
specialized in social systems and
his active concern with social
movements has landed him in the
jails of Russia, Spain and Mexico.
His fantastic success in the game
of bridge, which is a hobby and
a by-product of his creative
genius in the field of social sys-
tens and mass psychology, did
not cause him to deviate from the
realization of his true lifework-
a scientific plan to build peace
among nations.
The Community Forum is pre-
senting Ely Culbertson in a pub
lie lecture Tuesday at 8:30/p. m.
in ITALIAN Hall. Tickets may be
secured at the door the night of
the lecture. Mr.. Culbertson also
will address the students of New
Hanover High school Wednesday
morning at 10 o'clock.

Great Britain was reported to

Italy would be revised.
Further provisions Of the pur-
ported terms would give Yugo-

of Fiume and lara. Greece would
receive all the Italian islands in
the Aegean Sea.

said that "the fate of the Italian

The Germans, however, rescued
