ACT FAST! ALL NEW SPRING UITS & TOPGOATS French Philosopheflri Sees Peace Hopein Federated Europe Jacques Maritain Speaks At G. U. Under Auspices Of Societe Jean Labat Establishment of a federated Eu- rope, founded on political justice, that would embrace Germany as a federal state, was proposed last | night by Jacques Maritain, French philosopher and writer, as the first necessary task of reconstruction “if the world is to escape in a lasting way from the nightmare of war.” “A federated Europe is inconceiv- able unless Germany herself be- comes a federal state,” he said, “and a federated Germany will be in turn impossible unless Europe becomes federated. These two aspects of the solution afforded by a system of fed- eration are inseparably linked.” The distinguished professor of philosophy at the Institute Catholic of Paris, who was a guest yesterday of the French Ambassador, Count de Saint Quentin, spoke on “The Post War Problems of Europe” before an invited audience in the Copley Lounge at Georgetown University. | His lecture was under the auspices of the university’s Societe Jean | Labat, of which Dr. Leon Dostert, | head of the French department, is| moderator. Embassy Representatives Attend. Count de Saint Quentin and a number of representatives from the embassies attended the lecture, which was delivered in French. Dr. Edmund A. Walsh, S. J., regent of | the School of Foreign Service, in- | troduced the lecturer. | America can help in two ways to remold life after the war, M. Mari- tain pointed out. “The first,” he said, “by taking advantage of the normal conditions of peace which it ! enjoys, makes it possible for the United States to help by solving or by beginning to solve for itself and |for its own account the problems which all of civilized mankind will be called upon to solve. “In the second place, when the | moment to make peace shall have | come, that is to say, when Nazi-ism will have been definitely conquered, America will be in a position to help Europe by assisting her in the task of making peace and in reconstruct- ing itself, under conditions of true Jjustice and of true liberty. This two-fold task requires a great con- structive intellectual effort and an effort toward goodwill, as well as of concrete and sympathetic under- standing.” Must Be Just Politics. For a federal union in Europe to live, M. Maritain said, the peoples of Europe must understand that politics are intrinsically bound *to ethics and that sound politics must be just and human. “Without political justice, there can be neither peace nor freedom nor happiness for nations,” he added Europe’s social problems, he re- | minded, are more important and deeper than the problems of political | | structure. | “What must be recognized in this | | connection,” he said, “is the necessity |to combat simultaneously the two |forms * * * of totalitarianism: the | totalitarianism of the Communist revolution and the totalitarianism of the Nationalist State, and to find a third solution. That is to say, to| | establish a new democracy, an organic and pluralistic democracy freed of a false philosophy of life | | which for two centuries has modified | the true vital principles of the modern democracies.” |A. U. Senior Queen To Be Crowned Tonight The senior queen of American University will be crowned at 11 o'clock tonight at the student union | ball in the college gymnasium.
