Van Alstyne, associate professor of history, stat-1 ed yesterday in the introduc- ! tion of his speech to the International Relations club. Speaking of the possibility , of attaining a status of permanent international peace, Dr. Van Alstyne pointed out that the actual human record has been ! one of almost constant warfare, and that if all the wars since the time of Queen Elizabeth to date were tabulated, the years of conflict would substantially exceed the years of peace among the white races of the j world. Even the history of the United j States, which prides itself on be-| ing a peaceful nation, is remarkable in that a major war has happened on an average of every 25 years. The eras of peace separating them have seemed to be nothing more than intermissions. ‘These facts,” Dr. Van Alstyne said, “are not being introduced to discourage any ideas we might have for accomplishing the maintenance of permanent, international peace, but to confront us with the problems involved in the realization of that ambition. “There have been innumerable books written since the time of Christ on this idea, but the general public has very few ideas about it.” Dr. Van Alstyne continued, developing the idea that we are not yet within a measurable distance of having conditions of permanent peace, and that we should be extremely careful in expressing' what we believe must be accomplished in attaining it. “The present helter-skelter dispersal of our armed strength is a way to war,” he warned. Dr. Van Alstyne concluded by expressing his belief that economic co- Gamma Phis solicit $51,850 to lead sororities as Delta Sigs win ^ fraternity competition; campaign nearly doubles wartime quota ^ Spurting ahead in the last stages of the two-week victory loan campaign, SC students bought and sold $93,945 in bonds and stamps.

Baker initiates weekly series Initiating a weekly series of interpretations of contemporary books, Alonzo Baker, assistant in political science, will speak at 3:10 p.m. today in the Art and Lecture rOom, located downstairs in the University library, on Norman Cousins’ recent book, “Modern Man Is Obsolete,” according to the education commission of the council of religion. “Baker will discuss Cousins’ views on the new atomic age and the lag in modern man’s progress as ! operation and cooperation in shar-compared to his scientific develop- ing naval and military island bases ment, and will explain the author’s as we have done during World war rovets to investigate cute housing problem Trovets will put into action the fourth phase of its four-)int program tomorrow when it sends a housing question-|aire to all SC veterans, announced Milton Buck, Trovet presi-;nt.

Veterans who do not receive ques-| tionnaires or are not reached by a I Trovet representative after Thursday may get a blank from the dean I of men's office. Other phases of the program an-: nounced by Trovets earlier in the term include orientation and academic guidance for the veteran, social and recreational activities, and citizenship and democracy. The instructions at the top of the questionnaire ask that it be submitted on or before Dec. 10, however, the time has been extended. The forms should be filled out and returned to the office of the dean of men not later than Dec. 20. “Contrary to the opinion sometimes expressed, the major purpose of Trovets is not to participate In politics, but to help SC veter- 1eadline nears ‘or vets to get ictivity books Veteran* attending school un-the G.l. bill are offered their chance to get activity books it and tomorrow between 1:30 4:30 p.m. in the Bookstore.

Cards with a brief summary of “Modern Man Is Obsolete” and the other books which will be presented in the series, as well as names of authors and members of the SC faculty to interpret them, will be available to students today, in order that they may know something of the books to be discussed, and the day for each. Taking place every Wednesday, the series will feature a number of new books, selected by the professors interpreting them A special Christmas feature will be given as the second talk in the series. “Many books and articles have been written concerning the effect of atomic power on the world.” said Miss Owens in describing Cousins’ book, “but the author seems to have a very dynamic and novel approach.” Among ' the speakers for this term's series are Dr. Frank Baxter, Adamantios Th. Polyzoides. Dr. Irl Whitchurch. Dr. Wilbert Hindman, and Dr. Garland Greever. II, is the most effective way to prevent. a future repetition of the recent years. Coeds aided in interviews Continuing the series of personal interviews with women interested in campus activities. Patches Quaintance reports that the response has been favorable. These interviews, sponsored by Amazons and Spooks and Spokes, are designed to assist women students to find the activity for which they are best suited and in which they are most interested. After stressing the fact that these interviews are open to all women students. Miss Quaintance pointed out that new students unfamiliar with the campus and its many activities will find these talks especially helpful. The interviews will continue each afternoon this week.

The drive, which started the week of Homecoming and ended last Friday, featured inter-fraternity, sorority and dormitory competition. As only one $25 bond was turned in by the dormitories, they will not be given a prize, Miss Brumfield stated.

Dec. 11— CE)— The United States tonight reaffirmed a stem peace for Germany and promised her “an exceedingly hard Vinter” but foresaw German economy beginning a gradual recovery next spring and getting back on its feet about 1948. The American position, adhering to the Potsdam declaration, was set forth in a 12-point state department policy document spelling out the U.S. concept of that declaration as it concerns German reparations and peacetime economy. It was issued at the request of the war deparment which wanted clarification of economic policy toward Germany for the guidance of American occupation authorities. Copies were sent to Russia, Britain and France. The document was accompanied by a statement from Secretary of State James F. Byrnes reaffirming the Potsdam promise that it is not the intention of the Allies to destroy or enslave the German people but to give them opportunity “to prepare for eventual reconstruction of their life on a democratic and peaceful basis.” It pledged anew that Germany will be stripped of all war-making capacity, but a spokesman said this does not mean reducing her to a nation of peasants. Within certain limitations prescribed by the Allies. Germany gradually will be permitted to produce light consumer goods to achieve an export-imiport balance and to bring German living standards up to the equivalent of the Eu-(Continued on Page 4) Commerce to sponsor Friday dig Circus theme planned; band to highlite event Welcoming veterans to the campus, the first all-U dig of the term, sponsored by th« College of Commerce, will feature Al Gayle’s orchestra in the Student Lounge, Friday night from 7:30 to 11 p.m„ announced Dorothy Reed, dance chairman. With a “big top” motif keynoting the dance, sororities, fraternities, and veterans are working with Miss Reed and her committee to complete the plans. Clowns, concessions, and vendors will provide the circus atmosphere, and sororities will be in charge of booths selling ice cream and hot dogs. Arrangements for entertainment are being handled by veterans, and music and the orchestra, by the fraternities on campus. Those having suggestions or ideas for the success of the dig are asked to contact Bob Anderson, president of the College of Commerce, or Jackie Boice, ASSC vice-president and dance committee member. Working with Miss Reed on her committee are Dusty Rhodes, Vic Harris, Ruby Ann Harbeson, Ray Carpenter, and Miss Boice. The affair promises to be one of the highlights ot informal social affairs on campus this year, according to committee members. As an orchestra dance, it will certainly be a diversion from the usual record dances held on the lounge, members stated. All veterans and new students are urged to attend this first social affair of the term. New students will be given the opportunity fo become acquainted with officials and students of SC, added Miss Reed. Sororities having desserts Friday night are asked to terminate their festivities at 7:15 to attend the dig. Sorority pledges not working in the booths will work on the cleanup committee. All veterans, naval trainees, and civilian'men and women are invited to attend the dig, concluded Miss Reed. Helsel asks religion retooling' plan Declaring that the new world stands in need of a retooling of religion, Dr Paul H. Helsel. professor out into the future while at another ; ed that generally religion is viewed of philosophy, discussed “Imple- j place it lags far behind. menting Religion for Peace” at the philosophy forum yesterday afternoon in Bowne hall. “There was a time.” said Dr. Helsel. “when tinkering with what passed for religion seemed to answer the purpose in much the same manner as repairs made upon the old, horse-drawn vehicle. But a transition period has occurred. Men continue to travel, but a wholly different method of transportation is now employed. Motors and pneumatic tires have supplanted horse. harness, and surrey. But awareness of the front line of social change is t primary conditions and first princi- j lations are commonly held to corn-uneven. At one place it spearheads j ipies of religion. Dr. Helsel explain- j prise real religion,’’ said Dr. Helsel. In summary Dr. Helsel stated that religion for the new day should be implemented with at least three tools. First, religion denotes an inner event, indescribable but actual. Second, that event occurs as an action, impulse, and pattern of behavior. Finally, the original event and impulse to action transpires within the framework of freedom. Next Tuesday Prof. Matila Ghyka will address the pilosophv forum in the last speech in the current forum series on the general subject “The New Tasks of Peace.” His subject will be “World Politics and Peace." ‘Possibly no event has made the world more conscious of change than that of the atomic bomb. Its advent seems to have spurred thought about the foundations of human existence into unusual prominence, while in religion, on the contrary, man clings to a religious fiction of nonreligious accumulations, unaware of the release of new and different religious energies that, likewise, threaten the foundations of human existence.” Citing the need for reviewing the in terms of its present outcomes. “Thus regarded it betrays a mixture. It reveals the presence of increments gathered up, historically, from a variety of sources, the most of which were not, themselves, religious. “Accretions from non - religious sources have contributed so covertly, and yet so effectively, to the subjection of religion to human manipulation and to the transformation of it into a manageable instrument of personal and social domination, that now at last the surpassing non-religious accumu- School of Religion holds chapel hour School of Religion chapel will be held today at 12 noon in the Healy chapel of the University Methodist church. Clara Sutherland, graduate student in the School of Religion, will lead in worship. Everyone is invited to attend, according to Miss Sutherland. Aspirants tie for I.R. post Diane Lockhart and Ann New-combe, both candidates for the office of secretary to the International Relations club, tied for election during a meeting of the club which was held Monday. Another vote will be held at the next club meeting. Carroll Thompson was elected president of the International Relations club, and Gerda Bosch was elected treasurer at the same meeting. Citing cases of numerous famous people who have been afflicted with poliomyelitis, Dr. Moore told of the advances medicine is making toward combating this disease. Recent experiments and discoveries have added to. the number of known facts in regard to cure and treatment. Dr. Moore has an A.B. from Hamilton college, has studied at Columbia university, and received his M.D. from SC.

Among other things, Dr. Moore spoke on paralysis due to inflamation of the spinal chord. Labor legislation hits house snag WASHINGTON, Dec. 11 — — Labor won a close initial victory in the House today in its fight to prevent enactment of the most far-reaching labor legislation since the Wagner act.
