Show December 14, 1932 THE WEBER HERALD Page Three Dr. B. M. Cherrington Addresses International Relations Club Head of Political Science Department of Denver University Outlines World Peace Problems. One of the most important and perhaps the most interesting lecture ever sponsored by the International Relations Club of Weber College was heard in the Spanish Room of the Hotel Bigelow last Tuesday evening. The speaker of this occasion was Professor B. M. Cherrington, head of the Political Science Dept. of the Denver University. Professor Cherrington's topic was, "The World's Greatest Problem Manchuria." "Throughout the ages, and especially "during modern times have people established institutions to insure the protection of their standard of living," said Dr. Cherrington. "Just as Ogden City provided for a city government to protect its citizens from the guns of the West, so the world is equiping itself with institutions and organizations that will insure the integrity of world peace. People of the world must become accustomed to these institutions before the disircd effect of their existence will be produced. The League of Nations, the Kellogg Peace Pact, and the Stimson Agreement are a few of the most recent movements for world peace. Grave Problem "China and Japan present a grave problem to the entire world in the interests of international peace Their dispute has been the most significant in world history since the Great War. However, we are not going to criticize the action of Japan in regard to Manchuria. She was faced with greater resistance than she had anticipated and as a result she was forced to use more severe measures to accomplish her purpose. The diplomatic policy of every country in the world and especially that of the United States was clearly evident in the steps that were taken to appease China and stop Japan in the recent conflict. "The United States." said Dr. Cherrington, "is observing the two most important articles of the League Covenant which state first, that war shall be abolished in favor of compromise, and second, that all possible measures will be taken to enforce peace. Our country has accomplished this by sending representatives to the League Conferences at Geneva and by refusing to lend money to Japan for the continuation of Manchurian warfare." Youth Responsible In speaking of the future of international peace. Dr. Cherrington said that the youth of the various countries would be responsible for that country's attitude toward world affairs. "The zunith of international hopes lies, indeed, in the youth of the world," remarked Dr. Cherrington, "but if the youth of Russia shall sec the realization of their dreams, every one of us will be a victim of a ruthless and bloody sacrifice to the ideals of Communism. The youth of Germany is fired with the zeal of Hitlerism, those of France and Spain are imbedded, with a radical spirit of nationalism. England and America present practically the only white spot on the world's map of youth. It will be the strength of their ideals that will preserve world peace and insure international integrity in time of crises such as the one that confronted the world in Manchuria." Disarmament Chairman In the early spring of 1932, Dr. Cherrington attended the Disarmament Conference at Geneva. He spent a month prior to its opening in the capitol cities of the larger countries, including Russia, getting first hand information regarding attitudes on the subject of disarmament. Since returning from Europe he has lectured throughout the East and is now leaving for California where he will be chairman of the Round Table on Disarmament at the Institute on World Affairs at Riverside. The International Relations Club was fortunate in. obtaining Professor Cherrington for a speaker and it wishes to extend its thanks to Dr. Cherrington as well as those who attended the lecture.
