1927 DEBATERS FIND FAULTS APLENTY IN BOK PEACE PLAN

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The Bok peace Plan found only two supporters when the vote was taken after the meeting of the Freshman Discussion Club last night. The resolution, "That the United States should unconditionally act in accord with the provisions of the Bok Peace Plan," was ably defended by F. V. M. Montanari and M. J. Dononvan, but fell before the attack of J. R. Creel and W. E. Wilson, who argued that "The Bok Plan is an impracticable, half-baked compromise between the League of Nations and nothing at all."

Speakers for the negative demonstrated that the many previous peace plans, notably the Hague Tribunal, which resemble the Bok Plan, have all failed; and that the grounds on which the United States Senate originally objected to the League have been removed by changes in the League constitution. The affirmative admitted that the League is the ideal, but advocates the Plan as a means of attaining the ideal, which the misinformed people refuse to attain at a jump.
