Andrew Carnegie worked hard on the subject of peace, as did Eenry Ford and other wise men. But they overlooked some curious characteristics of the human race, which does not live by words alone. One is that man abhors static con- ditions. New peoples, new races of man seek to enjoy not only the power but the fruits of older civil izations. No Roman could have im- agined that the barbarians whom Caesar conquered would one day call themselves Englishmen, speak Latin -Teutonic jargon, and rule the world from Elizabeth, the con- temporary of Shakespeare, to George of today. Nor would an Englishman of Elizabeth's day imagine that the bewhiskered Moscovite would one day become the chief contender for place, not with England, which is by-passed, but with America, which was fantasy of Sir Walter Raleigh.
 In fact, Elizabeth was most con- cerned with Spain which was then the greatest of the powers, but whose destiny was to be wrecked off the Irish coast by a wind, as Napoleon's hopes were later to be shattered by rain and Hitler's by snow. It is amazing what things count in history, the smile of a wicked woman or the hunger oI mothers watching their babies die The old Dowager Empress of China could never have believed that Rus sia would one day conquer China with the assistance of an American President and a British Prime Min ister sitting in the salubrious cli- mate of the Crimea, talking to the son of a Georgian alcoholic.
 This is the stuff out of which wars come, as Alexander Sachs, ec- onomist and philosopher, who stir red up the making of the atom bomb. must realize. The pe9ce so- cieties have never found formula for ending war except the Kellog- Briand Pact, invented by Professor James Shotwell of Columbia Uni- versity, whose name is not attached ! to the formula because politicians ! like not only to be famous and to enjoy power but to give the inn pressin of scholarship. Always pro- i fessors have been the ghost-writers for kings, as far back as the time when kings could not even read, much less write.
 But Shotwell's formula to outlaw war as an instrument of national policy was wrecked when the Jap- anese went into Manchuria in 1881, deed that was as much due to Sun Eos distruSt of T. V. Soong as to any other cause. Mussolini then finished the job on the for- mula by sending Italy into Ethio- pia which might have been av- erted were it not that Mussolini and Anthony Eden hated each other. Had these two events not oc- cured World War II might not have taken place. Who knows? It might have come anyhow. But had there been no World War II, Rus
 sia would not be mistress of half the world, and Harry Truman might
 not have been President of the
 United States.
 What all this means is that the human race involves itself in all
 sorts of silly activities and these

BLAME FOR WORLD CONDITIONS
IS OURS, CIVIC LEADERS LEARN

"The business of building new
world belongs on your doorstep
and mine," Rev. Ray Beals, Find
lay, told local Rotarians and XII
wanians Wednesday noon when
he addressed the joint meeting in
st. John Lutheran Church on the
subject where the New World
Begins.
John Anderson, president of the
Rotary Club, presided and spoke
briefly on service clubs accom-
plishments during the first half
of the Goth century. Kiwanian
Carl Heckler reported on ticket
sales for the Youth Center bene-
fit show to be staged in the Clin-
ton Theatre on January 19, and
to be sponsored by both clubs.
In his sterling speech which
elected heartfelt applause from
the civic club members, Rev.
Beals gave his answer in three
points: Overcome the emotion of
fear Respect people of other ra-
cial and prejudicial groups. Take
on a new sense Of personal re-
sponsibility".

low: "We should make a New
Years resolution to spend more
time with our families. One of
the reasons for today's tragedies
is that mother works the day
shift, father works the night
shift and the children shift for
themselves"
Starting next week will be a
special column by Rev. Beals
which will be a regular feature
of the Ottawa County News. His
writings are as brilliant as his
speeches and are up-to-the-minute
discussions Of every day life.
"We must be guided by faith
rather than fear. Emotion Of
fear can wreck our economic
structure just as easily as our in
diviGual health. FEAR TENDS
TO CREATE IT'S OBJECT.
"We must decide where we want
to 60 and do some solid thinking
as to how we can reach that goal.
