    Van Kirk Demands Economic
Justice in Post-War Planning
By COURTNEY SWANDER
The renunciation of isolationism and the establishment of
economic justice among the nations of the world were given as
prerequisites of a durable peace by Dr. Walter W. Van Kirk
at the assembly Monday afternoon.
Dr. Van Kirk’s appearance in Eugene was part of a national
tour sponsored by the Federal Council of the Churches of Christ
of America. He is chairman of its commission for international
justice and good will and for
several years has conducted the
“Religions in the News” pro
gram over stations of the Na
tional Broadcasting company.
Having participated in world
peace movements for twenty
years and completed a number of
conferences with British church
men this summer, Dr. Van Kirk
came well prepared to express
the voice of the church in mak
ing the next peace lasting.
Church Renders Service
The church is rendering a
spiritual service to the country,
Dr. Van Kirk said. Through it
there is an interchange of rela
tionship—even between nations
at war. Such a service is inval
uable in its possibilities for keep
ing the peace.
The speaker touched upon his
many efforts and those of the
church in general toward “out
lawing” war and limiting arma
ments, but he said that their ef
fect did not stabilize peace.
“Resolutions against war and
conferences on reducing arma
ments are fine as far as they
go,” Dr. Van Kirk asserted, “but
they do not touch the basic cause
of war.
“One of the most important
factors in making the next peace
permanent is the establishment
of economic justice in the world
community,” he stated, “but too
few people have an accurate re
alization of the fact.”
Economic Justice Explained
By economic justice he ex
plained that he meant that ex
ploitation of natural resources
for the development of the re
gions where they are found and
not for the gaining or enlarging
of empire.
Dr. Van Kirk pointed to the
Atlantic charter as an example
of economic justice and to the
resolution on American post-war
cooperation which is now before
the senate. Of the latter he pre
dicted that its enactment or de
feat would play a large part in
determining the future of world
peace.
