Pacifists' Beliefs Are Constructive Says Y.M.Leader
Shultz Urges Tolerance of Means by All Factions Looking to Peace
As An End
(Rv E. R. Shultz)
by the current discussion about war there seems to be a great deal of confusion as to the real nature of war. Let us look at it.
1. **war**, as a legalized international method of settling disputes by a fight to the finish should not be confused with police force, a system of using neutral force for determining and applying justice to all disputants alike
2. Likewise war is not courage, though it has always been a means by which real courage and valor are manifested just as it has been a means by which brutality, vengeance and hate have been manifested.
War Economic Suicide
3. War is economic suicide, 55 s.
points out of every dollar paid in taxes
in 1922 in our win peace-loving country
went to pay for past and future
war.
4. War has no regard for truth.
Hatres is essential to successful war,
and lies are necessary to create hatre.
Anything good said of our enemy
during time of war is treason.
It is not easy to say that
no nation is wholly bad.
War has not always been considered essentially evil and it is now a compliment to our sanity that our whole nation seems to agree that war should be abolished. This indicates that the country had already been made toward eliminating it.
Idealism Should be Tolerated
education School or for future.
In this day of intellectual discontent it seems too that there should be a kind of ideality instead in university centers. "War and means of preventing it," is a subject which makes many people "see red" just now, even those who profess to want to avoid all future war.
Why can we not develop a tolerance among all those who hate war which would allow each individual to make his own contribution toward finding the method which this social system, mankind, shall be forever burdened?
United in the purpose to abolish
the why should we not be tolerant as
to the method? It takes a certain
reason to enter an agreement,
tween nations to enter into an
agreement to limit armaments, it takes
a little more faith and good will to
enter into an effective World Court,
or to enter into a Lague of
Nations, etc eterna.
Humanity Above Nations.
Some individuals extend this same principle to the ultimate dnaal that war can ever be an effective means of bringing international justice or of preventing violence, which every war is owed and for which few wars, if any, are fought. Some take this stand because of a passionate love for humanity. They could not adopt the slogan of the Gone Swimming "Above All Nations Humanity."
Others would add to this their love and faith in God and His purposes for man as revealed in Jesus Christ. This is the sense of the much discussed and misunderstood resolution of the Methodist conference. They are entirely within their bounds as elected representatives of a great Christian church, say may they represent the institution which they represent shall help promote wars. They do not say individual members must be some pacifists.
It is difficult, too, for those who are not pacifiers to believe that pacifiers are any more than a mere refusal to fight. This is but a small part of it. But a word about that small part as we talk about it is riding in an airplane 2000 feet above earth and my friend tells me to take the parachute and jump. In the meanwhile I have noted that the rope is about mouse-eaten in two and the parachute has several rents in it so that I am convinced it will be inert in a parachute. Should I abandon my reason and take my advice?
Modern Warfare Ineffective
Modern warfare interceptive.
This is the predicament of the pacifist who is advised to use war to settle international conflict who he beaten, wounded and was wounded at today, like the parachute, is absolutely ineffective as a means of accomplishing its purpose but only creates more hate, fear, suspicion, preparedness, war, et cetera, in a vicious circle and infinitum.
aw I understand the few pacifists I have heard or read, they are willing to work hard on some moke makers, or on some other kind of mission, the World Court, a Lagos government,
Nations and all other constructive measures. The chief peculiarity of pacifists is that they go farther than others in the international application of faith and good will and say there is no limit to the effectiveness of these weapons in eliminating the causes of war.
Reliance in Faith
Ultimate Reliance in Faith Believing this, a genuine patriotism demands that they insist on ultimate reliance being placed upon international faith and good will rather than upon force, therefore they cannot take part in war now support preparations for war.
Should not college men and women everywhere who hate war be tolerant of this and other differences which exist among them and work shoulder to shoulder to make world peace a reality?
