"Not a Militarist," Col. White Insists at Evening Forum
Hot Battle Some Expected
Did Not Materialize
in Anti-Pacifist
Address
"I am not a militarist, and I am not against the pacifist as opposed to militarism, but the pacifist as opposed to militarism, but the pacifist as opposed to subscribe to it," said Mr. Carl F. White, managing editor of the Kansas City, Kansas, and president of the Reserve Officers' Association of Kanada to the Y. M. C., A forum last night.
Mr. White read most of his speech and said that he wished to do so "largely because I feel deeply about this question and want to be careful not to depart in any moment of enthusiasm." Mr. White spent a good share of the time explaining the importance of preserving the peace behind the peace movement and sum marking the lives of the men who are engaged in the work.
The forum was well attended by students of the University, faculty members, members of the R. O. T. c and citizens of Lawrence. A number of the younger men of the University went prepared to have a battle on pacifism and militarism; however the meeting did not show many signs of intelligent thinking during the discussion, and most of the questions were answered by the subject of the speaker, "Peace Through Preparedness."
White Reads Speech
He drew from all the material he had that the Y. M. C. A. was an agent or medium for such speakers to get information, thinks that the organization either through carelessness or lack of information, stands for radical speakers. "It is perfectly fair that a man should believe and have inimpaired his beliefs and have inimpeded speech as long as his statements are not treasonable and seditions, and as long as they abide by the law and so on," he added. But to this campus should be preceded by a statement of who he is, his connections, his affiliations and from where he comes, and we then can trust him, because we will do the rest." Mr. White thinks.
Some Short Talks Help
A a few intelligent and worthwhile short talks were made and helped to enlighten the audience. Prof. Dimmore Alter and that it was his view that the conscientious objector might break the law and refuse to be drafted for everyone who did so must be willing to accept the penalty, whatever it might be.
Chancellor Lindly spoke freely of the confidence he has in the youth of today and remarked that youth has the right to talk with sincerity on this subject as he is the one who will have to fight the next war. However, he cautioned the students to refrain from speaking directly to a speaker with whom they disagreed and made a plea for sane thought on the question.
"It is peace through preparedness and the love of peace with honor which every patriotic American should know," Colonel White said in closing.
