What Will Be This Nation's Course After the War
What will be the aims and policies of the United States in the post-war world? Last week the Kansan printed the text of the Ball Resolution, which urged the Senate to declare now what those aims and policies would be. The Resolution was buried in a committee, whose short-sighted members failed to realize the necessity for informing the world about what we will do.
The proposers of the Resolution, and many forward-looking and progressive thinkers, believe that now is the time to let the world know that this country will not back out of post-war settlements, as happened after World War I. Then the United States failed to join the League of Nations because the proposal lacked six votes of the required two-thirds majority in the Senate for ratification of treaties.
To have had the Resolution adopted, the Senators hoped, would have been to define in clear-cut terms the kind of foreign policy which will best serve this country and promote world stability and peace.
Another reason for wishing speedy adoption was that many of the forces which now tend toward cohesive action by the United Nations will at the end of the war tend to drive apart these countries. Among those forces which may be dominant after peace comes are economic rivalry, nationalistic feelings, and immediate and pressing domestic problems. By setting a course of action now, machinery for international arbitration and justice might be set up and under way while those motives are still subordinated to the necessity of winning the war.
The foregoing discussion has taken for granted, more or less, the conviction that an organization of the peace-loving nations of the world, with both the authority and the power to stop any future attempts at military aggression, offers the best hope for maintaining the peace and stability of the world after the war. The Senators who brought forth the Resolution believe that such a conviction is shared by the overwhelming majority of the American people.
In support of such an organization, the Senators argued:
"The world has tried many other methods of maintaining peace-balance of power, diplomacy, imperialism, peace pacts, multilateral treaties, and nonaggression agreements. All have failed. The most recent and the broadest in conception was the League of Nations. It failed largely because at the critical moment it could not act decisively. It failed at least partly because the United States, one of the three or four most powerful nations in the world, was not a full partner in that effort to achieve lasting world peace."
With the Resolution now seemingly consigned to gather dust in a Senate pigeonhole, what will be the Senate's attitude when it comes time to ratify membership in a world organization for the preservation of peace, if that time comes? We can only wait and wonder.

'Strictly Scuttlebutt'

The Trainees Softball club slugged out a 15 to 9 victory over the "Irish Rascals". Michael Gawryluk, who twirled for the Bluejackets, barely missed the softball hall of fame, as a scratch single in the final inning was the first hit he allowed.
The past week-end found the trainees ready to accept the rumors they have been hearing that the sun shines in Kansas, and it doesn't always rain. Even the boys from California admitted that there was a lot of sun in Kansas. . . Many of the trainees spent a few of their liberty hours over one weekend seeing the local flicker, "Crash Dive". They have hopes of submarine duty, and wanted a look-see into the future. . . "Whispers"—the popular little pooch, who has drawn so much attention the last few weeks—is back "on duty", but still has a slight limp.
A hearty farewell and best wishes for the future was recently given Ensign K. E. Harden, of the U. S. Navy Supply Corps. Harden, a graduate of Kansas University, has been stationed at the Machinists Mates School for the past four months. He will attend the Navy's Supply Corps School at Harvard University for further training, and upon completing training will be assigned other duty.
Any local or nearby softball aggregations desiring a game with the Navy club should contact Chief Yeoman Starkey at the Navy School. The telephone number is 684.

BRITISHER---
(continued from page one) produced at the luncheon by John Price, British consul in Kansas City. Later in the afternoon, he broadcast over WREN, and then left for San Francisco. His newspaper, the London News Chronicle, is a morning paper with a circulation of 1,200,000. Besides the North African front, he has recently "covered" events in Russia, India, and the Middle East. He did not give a speech at the luncheon, but answered scores of questions and made many predictions and guesses in response to questions.

The appointment of Wavell to the position of viceroy in India surprised him, he said, because Wavell is a "rather awkward man at such things as making speeches, and the viceroy must do much of that." The appointment may indicate that the Allies are getting ready to move in the Burma area. Millions of Indian troops are available and ready to fight; they could have been used earlier if means had been found to train, arm, and equip them.
When invasion of Europe begins, landings will be made in several areas, Mr. Jordan guessed. Not unlikely, one spearhead will move through the Scandinavian territory. Millions of highly trained Canadian and British, as well as Americans, are getting impatient, anxious to "get into the fight," he said.
Among the persons invited to the luncheon were Oscar Stauffer, owner of the Topeka State Journal, E. B. Chapman, managing editor of the State Journal; Milton Tabor, managing editor of the Topeka Daily Capital; W. C. Simons, president of the Lawrence Journal-World; Solon Ayers, superintendent of Haskell Institute.
John Price, British consul; Dean Lawson; Raymond Nichols, executive secretary to the Chancellor; W. W. Davis, professor of history; E. F. Beth, acting chairman of the department of journalism; K. W. Davidson, University director of information; F. J. Moreau, dean of the School of Law; H. B. Chubb, associate professor of political science; W. E. Sandelius, professor of political science.
F. T. Stockton, dean of the School of Business; F. C. Allen, athletic director; Henry Werner, adviser of men; C. B. Holmes, Lawrence businessman; Richard B. Stevens, attorney; Fred Ellsworth, Alumni Association secretary; Laurence C. Woodruff, registrar; Theodore Aszman, minister; and Willard W. Beatty, director of education in the Office of Indian Affairs.

Sculptures Sold By Bernard Frazier
"The Yearlings," ceramic sculptures of a pair of horses and the work of Bernard Frazier, instructor in design, have been sold by him to Roy Harris, noted American music composer, Frazier has revealed.

While in Lawrence, he purchased the sculptures which he said he intended to place in his study. The sculptures are made from Kansas clays, in four colors. They were done by Frazier last summer.
