Ambassador Gives Convocation Talk on South America
W. S. Culbertson of Chile Says Basis of Foreign Relationship Is Thinking
"Sound Thinking, fostered in the universities, is needed as a basis for foreign relationship," said William S. McGee, director of the university to Dale in his conversation this morning on "South American Relations." "'While the material de-
velopment of our country is very great benefit, we cannot lose sight of the fact that there must be a development of non-material things with our southern neighbor."
"Education, besides aiding in the formation of a background for intellectual and spiritual life, aids in the interpretation of nationalism and non-utilitarian thought. Colbertson. He urged no lessening of the building of the material side of national and international development, but emphasized the need of the non-economic and non-utilitarian aspects of understanding of Pan-Americanism.
In his talk Mr. Culbertson discribed the geography, the economic development of Chile. The non-economic features were stressed by the speaker by bringing attention to the causes of Chile's movement for peace.
Chile Contributes to World Peace

Chile was founded in 1540. The people have passed through a great struggle with Spain from whom they came, and have survived. Chile is essentially of northern origin. It has its great political heroes as does the United States. It also possesses some of the most famous Catholic University of Chile, the University of Chile, and the University of Concepción. Chile claims some of the world's greatest universities. It has a culture worth knowing.

Commercial Growth Important
"Our commercial growth in South
America is important, but we are
successful in the United States it has its critics. There has developed in these countries on the south a propaganda against us. They will pick up an incident from
their country and spread it to ours.
I know that the thinking people in these countries understand the conditions in our country better than they do in their country.
"I have no apologies to make of
the development of the United States in South America. We can say that our materiality at least has been constructive. It has been destructive."
"It has been the majority of European countries."
"Our factories are a thing of which we may be proud. Our industries and improvements have helped these people survive, and we can take the airlines. There is now an animall way from New York down to Miami, Fl., through San Diego, and thence to Buenos Aires. You can't draw together of the people less."
"We come then to these two points: The World War gave us a real and vital interest in the affairs and the people of our country, we were indifferent before, but as a result of sending our men and products into the countries we have been involved with, we really the democracy of which we take so much pride, it is important for each of us to take interest in the peoples and the affairs of other countries."
