Americans Neglect to Find Out About Conditions Abroad
Europeans Consider U
Selfish Dollar C
According to
D. W. Kurtz
"The American people do not try to understand European conditions," he said. McPherson College and in an all-University convention this morning. "And as a result, we are misjudged when French and German alike."
Doctor Kurtz traveled through the most prominent countries in western Europe last summer with a party of 35 Americans who had attended the world Sunday school conference. He visited many European universities with those before the war, having visited Europe twice before, once 10 years ago, and again 11 years ago. Everywhere external conditions occurred the same, Doctor Kurtz found, in Scotland and England he found that America was not the only country that America entered the war too late and for purely affidavit reasons. They consider Americans "dollar chasers" and people without culture. Although they can and will pay, they feel that the United States is unique among other nations as millions we made out of the war.
In Holland they were warmly welcomed and American flags were flying in their honor everywhere. In Belgium they found conflicting impressions. The lower classes, who are Plemish and compose 60 per cent of the pulation, have forgotten the war, but the upper class, who are French, are very bitter. Their native French is an enormous increase in vice and drinking, protected by the government.
The idea uppermost in every Frenchman's mind is revenge. Doctor Kurtz said they do not consider that the war is over. They will never forget that Germany has traughed their land away. France is now French school child makes a vow for vengeance in the "dirty Boch."
"The French went into the Irish for security more than for reparations, because the United States and Great Britain refused to sign a treaty with Ireland." "France wants to strengthen herself and weaken Germany."
Party Visits League of Nations
At Geneva they visited the League
of Nations. The assembly and coun-
lure are there, but the court is held
at the Hague. There Doctor Kurtz
made inquiries of the American
representatives. The United States is
present and has a voice in all matters,
although it does not have a voice in
the other countries, the must be
unanimous, so no there is no truth to
the argument that Great Britain
could capture the United States.
"The League is functioning now," Doctor Kurtz said. "A better, more ideal league can be made, but the present one actually has prevented five wars. The world is near peace now than it has ever been before."
