-« 16 ECONOMIC WELFARE No Definite Step Towards Peace Says College Prolessor Honolulu, T. H., Oct. 21.—The limi- tation of armaments is not a definite step toward peace, according t& Dr. Roberto Grenes Mesen, of Syracuse university and former Costa Rican minister to Washington who addressed the Press Congress of the World here today. “It is a step towards the economic welfare of the nations, upon whose capacities of produstion and thriving direct and indireet taxes of every de- seription weigh enormously, aggre- vated by the need of maintaining permanent armies, and the incessant renovation of the armaments,”” Dr Mesen added. “But war is not the outcome of any accumulation of weapons, he said “but the misunderstanding of the interna- tional interests of nations; territorial interests—boundary or colonial—in- dustrial, racial or institutional inter- ests. Paucity of arnmments does not determine peace. It is a state of con- sciousness of the nations which en- genders wars, which insinuates the convenience of taking up arms, which inflates the budgets of the state. Wars, as all other events produced by man, take birth in the depthS of his thought and his conseciousness. $ “The enlightened thought of man and the illumined heart of woman will determine the permanent peace, as their obscureness has generated num- Perless wars which have instilled doubt concerning the moral health of nations “Therefore, institutions which edu- cate the consciousness of individuals thope that inform the thought of the people and those that rule their des- tipies, are directly and indirectly re- sponsible for the state of mind of na- tions which fling themselves into war or which propose peace. “Is there any institution which ed- ucates the thought of man more exten- sively or more powerfully than the one represented by this Press Congress of the World? It we truthfully aspire to eliminate war among men, let us recognize with dandor that the Press Congress of the World is able to attain this high pur- pose, “A memorable performance of this Press Congress of the World should | be the sketching of the cardinal lines of the great human interests upon which an agreement is possible with- out reviving the extant wide divergen- cies of nationality, race or religion. “And not less memorable should be the work of organizing Sub-Con- greases which have in charge the set- ting forth, from a new inter: mal viewpoint, of all those proble: at- fecting different groups of natlons. The agreements arrived at in these Sub-Congresses should serve as a base to the subsequent debates of the Press Congress of the World. “The Spanish American section of this Sub-Congress should take In charge this most important function: to emphasize the spiritual unity of all peoples speaking oné and the same Pen insular language, creating in a solid and definite way the sentiment and the conviction that in the realm of Art and Selence and all-the spiritual forms of civilization all those nations are, separately, mere provinces of a vast ensergble which we must take in sight when the artistio work is created, or the scientific research is brasight about, or the philosophic doctrine ‘s expounded. “Such a section of the Sub-Congress should take in charge the foundation and directiom of a great newspaper destined to form and educate that Continental conselous mind, to unveil this spiritual unity of the peoples of the continent, to represent in an in- tegral and comprehensive manner; the grandeur and transcendence of the ‘whole ensemble. “Such a newspaper -ought to ‘be founded and edited in New York where it is not possible to live for any length of time, with a open mind, without losing the provincial pre- Jjudices, though living always the high interests and ideals of the mother country. | “New York will have in relation with the spiritual union of Spanish American nations the same destiny that Alexandria had in relation with the intellectual unity of decling Creece or the destiny of Florence in relation with the awakening of arts and letters at the dawn of the Renaissance.” The first successful moving pictures ‘were shown at Richmond, Ind., June 6, 1894, A British Holstein-Friesian cow was recently sold in England for $30,- 000, Do youwant a clear skin?

The Commercial Trust company is conteraplating the free distribution among its friends and patrons eof a series of highly illustrated articles on the government of the United States. The articles, although twriten in popu- lar form will be of real educational value. They ara to be mailed directly to the homes of New Britain without charge. This plan is in keeping with the new idea that every progressive financial institution owes a broader service to its community. The modern bank is no longer only a place where money. is deposited at one window and drawn at another. It is rather a cen- ter of constructive and hcipful infor- mation to which any one may bring his financial problems with some con- fidence of findin® a solution for them. These stories are designed to show the benefits thht afi¥one derives from the seivice of the government. They have been brought up to the minute. They have a particular appeal to new citizens, foreigners and school chil- dren, as well as furnishing interesting and instructive reading to practically everyone. N Never before have Americans taken such an intense interest in their gov- ernment. The extension of income taxed and the widespread purchase of Liberty bonds have made us all finan- cfal partners in its welfare. This public interest in governmental affairs is a healthy and natural inter- est. 1t will lead to increased knowl- edge, a more intelligent understanding and a long, strong stride ahead. This community is to be congratulated on the foresight and enterprise brings thi¢’ material within the reach of everyone. The bank desires to make the dis- tribution as wide as posuible. Some, however, are sure to be overlooked and as the supply of articles is necessarily limited, it is suggested that everyone who wishes to receive them call at the bank and leave their names for in- clusion in the maliling list. It has been anticipated that many will wish to keep each number of the series of governmental articles as re- ceived, as each will deal with a differ- ent department of the government. For this purpose it is understood that there is available a limited number of beautiful containersy one of which can be obtained by any person desiring it by calling during banking hours for t. that | T * NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 21, 1921 ARMAMENTS [IM'T COZMERCIAL TRUST / terday afternoon,” the last act of the g f ing the U.
