H ow ever, I stillhold to the
opinion w hich has been mine for
th e past th ree or four years th at
chances of a m ajor w ar are be­
com ing m ore and more remote.
In tern atio n al developm ents since
th e close of World War II give
me the basis for such a belief
on my p art. While crisis afte r
crisis has appeared on the horizon
w ith w ar appearing imm inent, in
each case a solution of some sort
was achieved and the world, re ­
laxed to aw ait the next one.

U n til C hristm as
This
year put something finer under the tree
The principal reason th a t I am
encouraged is th a t I leel th at the
nations of the world are finally
beginning to realize the futility of
w ar solving any problem. Also the
fact th a t all nations today are on
th e alert and not lulled into a
false feeling of security tends t
cause and aggressor to think
tw ice before firing the first shot.
In both w orld w ars, one nation
w as outstandingly stronger than
any of its neighbors, who w itn
th e ir heads buried deep in th 1
sand felt th a t the only way to
avoid w ar was to ignore the
tihre it of war. Today nations
know th at a w ar is much more
likely to e ru p t w hen one country
feels th a t it is strong enough to
overpow er the others.
I don’t think th at it would be
too far-fetched to com pare th e in-
ternational relations w ith labor j
relations T here was a tim e in th?
early days following the birth of
the industrial revolution whe
labor and industry both held t >
th e false prem ise that th eir ob­
jectives could >*nly be accom plish­
ed by the use of force. Today they
have both learned, to th e ir m u t­
ual advantage th at tolerant dis­
cussion comes up w ith much more
lasting agreem ents and u n d er­
standing
Sim ilarly w ith the nations of
th e world. While th e United Na­
tions has not achieved wonders
d uring its short term of existence,
it has afforded th e environm ent
for sensible discussion; and so
long as nations can converse w ith
one an other they are much less
likely to sta rt shooting.
