Deutsch: War Common
Peace Phenomenon
Hy THOMPSON
Kim-ruld SUIT Writer
With "War In common: peace is
the phenomenon” in the history
of mankind. Steven Deutsch open
ed the first World Without War
seminar Wednesday.
The purpose of the seminar se
ries is to offer a solution to what
the individual can do to promote
peace.
Deutsch. associate professor of
sociology. went on to quote an
Englishman's definition of war—
"to change your enemy’s mind.”
The means man has used
throughout history to do this has
been to show himself capable of
more destruction than his poten
tiai enemy, and the race for su
perlor weapons was on.
Today, man has reached the
point John F. Kennedy was talk j
ing about when he said, “In the I
twentieth century, either civiliza
tion will put an end to war, or
war will put an end to civiliza
tion."
Nationalism to Blame
Nationalism is mostly to blame
for this situation, said Deutsch. j
Socialization teaches men with
in a given culture to have a "com
mon way of looking at the world," j
but each culture has a different
view.
Nationalism prevents people j
from uniting as people: it unnat
uraliy divides homo sapiens into;
different groups who often end i
up suspicious of other groups
merely because they have differ-!
ent cultures.
This is carried to the point of j
dangerously false biases and
stereotyped images, Deutsch con-!
tinned. He used the example of j
the researcher who snowed a
picture of a pleasant looking rural j
area to school children in theI
U.S. and in the U.S.S.K The first j
time he showed the picture to the !
U.S. children, he told them it wasi
a picture of the U.S., and asked 1
them to tell him what they saw.
They saw a "beautifur land
scape. Some time later he show
ed the same picture to the same;
US children but this time told
them it was a picture of the So
viet Union. This time the chil
dren "saw" cleverly camouflaged
missile sites and concentration
camps. The same (hint; occurred
when Russian children saw the
pictures.
Powerful Bond
"Defense has always been the
most powerful bond in preserving
unity War solidifies society War
is a major, efficient way to pro
mote the economy. The U.S.
spends ff3.7 per cent of its entire
budget for military and military
related purposes," Deutsch said.
In 1002. 120 underground si
los for missiles were built at a
cost of $40 million each. Today
they are obsolete, some are be
ing used for garbage dumps.
The B-58 bomber costs $507
per pound. F’urc gold costs $500
per pound.
One battleship costs over twice
as much as is spent on all med
ical research in the U.S. in one
year.
Can’t Stop
In spite of the huge spending,
it can't stop. One out of 11 jobs
in the U.S. is directly related to
military production. When mili
tary operations were cut back re
cently in the San Diego area, it
caused a depression in that area.
The whole thing has become "per
petual," or according to Deutsch’s
Law, "Expenditure and built-up
structure requires expenditure
and built-up structure.”
So what’s another way to main
tain economic stability without
war?
"Common markets, mutual
Greek Focus Presents
Diversified Program
"It’s a varied and interesting,
program,” says Mark Dennett.
"It will involve independents,
faculty and community, as well j
as the Greeks.”
It is Greek Focus, February 27
through March 4, a week of;
speakers, panels, movies and en
tertainment, jointly sponsored by j
the campus Inter-fraternity Coun-!
cil and Panhellenic. Mark Dennett
is general co-chairman, along with
Sylve Hanson.
Each day Greek Focus will “fo
cus” on a different topic, varying
from the community, the student
and the University to politics, en
tertainment, and sports. Experts
in each field will appear daily.
Teacher Gets
Bronze Star
James A. Zumbrunner, associ
ate professor of military science
at the University, recently receiv
ed the Bronze Star for meritorious
service in Viet Nam.
Zumbrunner, who holds the
rank of captain in the infantry,
was transferred to his position
at the University following his
tour of duty in Viet Nam.
Embert A. Fossum, professor of
military science at the Univer
sity, made the presentation.
He was awarded the medal
for “. . . materially contributing
to the efforts of the United States
mission to the Republic of Viet
Nam to assist that country in rid
ding itself of the Communist
threat to its freedom.”
It was further noted that "His
initiative, zeal, sound judgment
and devotion to duty have been
in the highest tradition of the
United States Army, and reflect
great credit on him and on the
military service.”

In the planning stages since last
October, Greek Focus has develop
ed into a major campus event,
according to Dennett. Controver
sial political figures, interesting
personalities in the fields of
sports, entertainment and gov
ernment and University experts
will highlight the week.
A publication is being prepar
ed containing a schedule of the
week's events and will appear in
February. A speaker’s forum will
also appear on the editorial page
of the Emerald during each day
of Greek Focus.
Campus fraternities and sor
orities will be engaged in all sorts
of projects, ranging from wake
up breakfasts, to exchanges and
service drives.
Each house will also invite
their national officers, who, while
visiting their local chapters, will
also have a chance to meet with
officers of different houses in an
idea-exchange seminar.
Another feature of the week
is an hour long television show
produced for Greek Focus by Pri
vate Lane Three.
baekscratehing—working togcth f
er,” answers DeuUch. "People
working together economically is ;
the only way to drop the na
tional identities.”
There’s another big problem be
sides economics. International re- j
latlons are cssenitally power re j
lations, and man has always re-1
lied on threats of war for power ]
relations. Mow can power rela
tions he dealt with if war is elim-1
inated?
Deutsch suggests using the fam
ily as a model code of ethics
mutually worked out with the
following premises: everybody
wins; everybody is willing to bar
gain, give and take; and every
body is willing to take certain
kinds of risks.
