Lindsay Cites
Policy Change
The big fact in the whole world
is the revolution in American for
eign policy in the past ten years,” I
said Kenneth Lindsay, British an-!
tbor and statesman, at the coffee!
forum held in the Student Union
Tuesday.
Lindsay, who addressed a Uni
versity assembly in the SU ball
room at 1 p. m. endorsed the cur
rent United States policy of vig
orous participation in world af
fairs. He stated that he would like
to make clear to the people of
Europe. the big strides America
has made from isolationism.
He also discussed the problem
of how the overdeveloped nations
of the world are to live with the
underdeveloped nations. He con
cluded that the nations like the
United States will have to keep
helping the underdeveloped na
tions.

newspaper plant, Meier and Frank
department store, Lewis & Clark
college, Timberline lodge, and a

chon. Danforth graduate, and Mrs.
David Campbell, of Eugene's For
eign Student Friendship Founda

More Controversy in Universities
Encouraged by British Statesman
“There is far too little contro
versy in universities today, and
far too many lectures,” British
statesman - author Kenneth Lind
say told a University lecture audi
ence Tuesday afternoon. “The
trouble is that we’re living half in
the early atomic age and half in
the late stone age, with some of
our institutions belonging to the
latter,” he continued.
Speaking on "Politics in the
Atomic Age: Challenge to Uni
versities,” Lindsay professor con
cern for the liberal arts education.
Today universities "need overhaul
ing," he said.
He emphasized the importance
of human nature in education, say
ing that man cajinot live by
mathematics, logic, economics and
political science alone. Judgement
is difficult without the understand
j ing of man, his nature and pur
poses, he told the audience.
Ideas Feared
The exponents of the "so-called
liberal arts” fear new political
ideas, he stated. Lindsay expressed
the belief that we should try new
experiments in international af
fairs. "Ideas matter, and the Rus
sions know it,” he reported.
"It is no good living in a poli
tical dream world. We must under
stand that other man’s point of
view. We must share our ideas
and identify ourselves with the as
pirations of others, according to
Lindsay.
Only a university outlook, bred
by a liberal arts education, is cap
able of molding life in the atomic
age, he commented. Lindsay ex
plained that th? weakness and dis
unity in political and economic af
fairs have not kept pace with the
technological advances.
Examples Given
"We can no longer afford poli
tical disunity,” he stressed, as he
gave four examples of this disun
ity: 1. the collapse of the Euro
pean state systems; 2. the ferment
in Asia and Africa; 3. the sudden
rise and ominous power of Soviet
Russia, and f. technological ad
vances which have increased the
vulnerability of all nations.
He proposed that "we must learn
to behave like democrats in an age
that is not conductive to democ
racy,” for the spirit of liberty
seeks to understand. Lindsay ex
pressed the belief that we must
recover the sense of responsible
liberty.
