Campbell tells peace condition
“The old world is dead. The future lies with the reactionaries who can turn back or the progressives who can face a new world.”
This thought is expressed by Dr. Edward Hallett Carr, professor of international politics at University College in Wales, in his most recent book, “Conditions of Peace,” which was interpreted by Dr. William G. Campbell, associate professor of education yesterday.
This was the third of a series of Tuesday book interpretations held in Bowne hall, Mudd Memorial hall of Philosophy, and sponsored by the student council of religion, faculty religious interests committees, and the university library.
“Peace and security are not objective. They are the result of normal adjustment rather than an original aim,’* says Dr. Carr.
“The social revolution will not end at the termination of the war. However, we will reach a point where the revolution will be practically imperceptible,’* according to the moralizing professor.
At the present time we view the crisis of democracy. There are the passive aspect and the active aspect of democracy. In the former we have rights and privileges and in the latter we participate to a greater extent.
Dr. Carr would have us believe that liberal democracy may easily be destroyed by the prestige of power. The power of the labor groups does not comprise a complete representation of labor. “Democracy must be reinterpreted in recent economic terms,” says Dr. Carr. Democracy is not cryst-alized. It is not the same in the 20th century as it was in the 19th century.

RAF trainee returns to Trojan cityroom
In his first visit to the SC campus since graduating in 1938, John F. Golay, editor of the Trojan in 1938 and RAF pilot trainee in Mesa, Ariz., told Trojan staff members of his experiences abroad the past five years during an informal talk Monday afternoon in the city room.
A Rhoades scholarship winner, Golay studied at Oxford and worked with Sir William Beveridge on his reports before enlisting in the RAF last June.
During his three years at Oxford, Golay studied in the School of Philosophy, Politics, and Economics, University College, where he took his Oxford A.B. degree. After the fall of France, he investigated the manpower problem with Beveridge, working as a coordinator of local surveys. Golay entered SC on a journalism scholarship, made Phi Beta Kappa in his junior year, and was president of Sigma Delta Chi, honorary fraternity for men in journalism.

Faculty to hear Polyzoides
Members of the Men’s Faculty club will gather in the Student Unifn ;rill today at 12:20 p.m. to hear the subject of “World Affairs” discussed by Adamantios Polyzoides, lecturer in international relation*.
Having just completed a tour of Pacific coast states, Mr. Polyzoides is now doing a daily column for the Los Angeles Times and an analysis of current news events over a radio station.
Miss Nina Streeter, university di-etition, has asked that reservations be made for the affair by phoning 363 or 426.
With the reputation of being an interesting speaker, Dr. John Erskine, American author who at present is working on a moving picture script, comes to Bovard auditorium at 2:40 today to speak on “Great Books.”
Dr. Erskine will speak at the second in a series of cultural programs arranged by Dr. Lionel Stevenson, associate professor of English and literature.
Introducing Dr. Erskine will be Chairman W. C. DeMille, professor of drama, who has been a personal friend of the speaker’s for a number of years, particularly while they were both attending Columbia university.
“Dr. Erskine has one of the most brilliant minds I have ever encountered,” says Professor DeMille. “Because of his choice of good subject matter and because he has such a remarkable sense of humor, his talks are always well attended,” Professor DeMille continues. “I am going to excuse my class to hear him for I feel the program will be extremely worth while.”
Dr. Erskine was so popular at Columbia university, where he was professor of English for some time, that students used to cut classes to hear him, remarked Henry Morton Robinson in describing the speaker.
Before the beginning of World war I he abandoned music. When the war started he went to Franc® as the chairman of the army education commission.
While in France he was made Chevalier of the Legion of Honor, one of the highest French honors that are awarded, and upon his return to the United States he was presented the distinguished service medal.
