C., and a veteran of World War I, General Kilburn is an interested student of military history. He remarked that at the end of the last world war he per sonally had anticipated the pres ent conflict because World War I was terminated by appeasement. “This war,” he believes, “must mean the complete defeat of the philosophy that through becoming strong and ruthless a government can dominate the people.” Asked about the possibility of a third world war, Kilburn stated that this would be ruled out pro vided the United States remained dominant physically, mentally, and militarily. “We must be prepared to resist actively whenever the occasion de mands. Appeasement by the indi vidual or the nation is a sign of inherent weakness. The American people must wake up to the fact that war, no matter how insignifi cant or where located, will affect us directly.” Buy Your Gifts for CHRISTMAS Early Come in ami see our wide selection of . . . * Games * Books * Stationery * Christmas Cards * Stuffed Animals MERRY CHRISTMAS from the MAGAZINE EXCHANGE 128 E. 11th FAA To Hold Meeting Today The Freshman Actitivies asso ciation will hold an important meeting' Wednesday at 4 p. m. in Gerlinger hall, third floor.
