To Immediate World Federation

Bull Urges Leniency In Peace Terms
Mercy not justice will be need ed after this war, if any lasting peace is to be found, Dr. Ladislau Biro told members of the International Relations club at their meeting Tuesday night.
Dr. Biro, who is pastor of the University Baptist church born in Hungary but later be came a citizen of Rumania when sections of Hungary were given to surrounding countries after World War I.
He pointed out that plans following the conclusions of peace in this war should be temporary, that we should be lenient in our treatment of the defeated countries, and that plans should be determined by all the countries, not just leaders of a few.
In urging leniency, he stated that a government cannot be punished without hurting its people, and if we take everything from them, we will get less in the long run.
Dr. Biro discussed at length the problems and attitudes of the Hungarians and Rumanians after the last war.
University students who will sing in the chorus an; Betty Cole, Joan Glcrum, Martha Fahnestock, Peggy Newman, Maria Porra, Dorothy Iglow, Isabel Maurer, Haydee Morales, Victoria Bennett. Rebecca Jackson, Dorothy Rohe, Gladys Koket, Gerry Rasmussen, Edith Rjort, and Kirk McQuain.
Hadyo received the inspiration for the “Creation’ upon a visit to London in 1795. The sources of this inspiration were a performance of “The Messiah” in Westminster Abbey, and acquaintance with Milton’s “Paradise Lost” and the description of the world from Genesis. Hadyn said, “Never was I si: pious as when I engaged upon the “Creation”. I fell on my knees daily and prayed earnestly tu God that he would grant me the strength to carry out the work and to praise him worthily.”
Sparta, failed, Mr. Cousins felt that the same dangers present then are present now. Greece failed because the citizens of Athens were not equal to maintaining democracy on a day-to-day basis, because they were unable to bridge the gap between a political entity and a geographic entity, and because at a time when the war was won Sparta sued for Peace, Athens went off on expeditions for bigger • things.
Psychological barriers, M r. Cousins pointed out, are standing in the way now of the formation of a world political entity. The idea of the world as one unit is a true one, he said, and our only (Continued on Page 4)
