On behalf of the American P )ciety, centenary arrangements ave in’ charge of President Burton, Vice i'residents David Jayne Hill and Jac n H. Ralston and corin Call. The centenary is to par- 11ke of the character of a monumental round table on world affairs. Que: 1ions directly bearing on the United Siates’ affairs will be conspicuous. In | their discussion distinguished Amer- | fcans from all walks of public life will participate. The society announces that “an ex. chingze of views and a clearing of minds” will take place, for example, n these purely American issues What is adequate national defense for the United States? What should be the policy of the | Sovernment of the United States on the question of disarmament? Should the Government of United States be urged to negotiate further treaties embodying the prin- | ciples of arbitration. conciliation, ete.? Is military training in the schools and colleges of the United States de- sirable? ‘What can be done to establish co- operation among the various peace organizations in the United States” (Chere are now more than 100 or- gdnizations with independent budgets, many working at cross purposes). hat way may real peace work- ers elfectively combat un-American propagandists who are dominating +and influeneing some peace organiza- tions, and “are active in schools, col- leges, churches, clubs, etc.? Should the American Peace Soclety renew its efforts for the calling of the third Hague conference for the re- «tatement and codification of irfferna. tional law? Commiitee On the | International Realm. In the_international realm, as dis- tinguished from the field of more ex- clusively American questions. the | centenary program will embrace these | paramount and far-reaching subjects: What can be done toward the ulti- | mate outlawing of war? What steps should be taken to| bring about a uniform policy amony | natons respecting protection of in-| vestments for the development of batkward countries? M. Briand, foreign minister of France, will lead the discussion on the outlawinz of war. ILast Spring| M. Briand proposed to Myron T. Her- rick.
