offenders on the basis of retaliation
which we denounce but continue to
do.
TREMENDOUS PERSONALITIES
1 have tried to bring to you some
of the challenges brought forth in
the Institute by setting down some
of the beliefs of the people who spoke
and directed the thinking of the meet
ing, however, this much I must say,
putting the words of these stimulating
men on paper can never do justice to
the job they did.
Judge LESLEY brought out so
clearly in his Reflections of the
Moderator at the close of the
meeting that we had heard men of
tremendous stature in their con-
victions. We heard men who not
only had beliefs, but who lived
them. There was the Catholic Priest
and the Quaker, the educator and
the diplomat.
AS the Judge said these were not
only ideas, they were personalities.
They were speakers of such abil-
ity and personality they held their
audiences in rapt attention.
Finally to resume the speeches:
Ashford Russell said we must never
give up hope. He said today we need
a special kind of courage, because it
is easy to hate and destroy and much
more difficult to build and cherish.
The UN, he said, is here to harmonic
national views and is of vital import
ance to mankind today where we have
two power blocks facing each other
with the most deadly weapons.
FORM OF PEACE
President R. R. Renne emphasized
hat since most underdeveloped coun-

t is first necessary to help improve
agriculture and then progress to in
lustrial development to diversity the
economy.
Since lack of capital is one of the
main drawbacks, grants-in-aid are es-
oecially effective in the beginning |
stages of an assistance program and |
alter as the program develops and the
economy is strengthened loans may
replace the grants-in-
id. He also pointed out that the early
tages of an assistance program
hould be largely projects that re-
uire few dollars but employ labor
ince underdeveloped countries are
ong on labor and short on capital.

Until the technical assistance bene- r

lotion and higher tax revenues, the

ry to match American dollars. r
Drawing on his experience in the f
