Here to study methods of soil conservation to find measures which may be applied to his nat ive country, and to report on work done there, Suarez exemplifies the type o f inter-country in tercourse that will bring about international un derstanding and amicable feeling, only basis for a workable league o f nations. Twenty-five young men of South America are spending a year in the United States studying agricultural practices in sections of the country which compare with their homelands. These yo ung men are conferring with American workers, are meeting on a common ground of knowledge and interest, are learning about one another’s nation and are formulating attitudes of freind- ship and cooperation which they pass on to their friends. Only through such exchanges in every field can international understanding, true appreciat ion of problefs and sympathetic knowledge of other peoples be established. And only in this way can international relations be such that the possibility of abolishing war can be considered. — The Redmond Spokesman. L .D .S .
