The Pasteur Medal was founded in 1898 by Baron Plerre de Conbertin as a prize to be awarded to the winner of an annual debate, the subject of which is to be drawn each year from contemporary French politics. The administration of the Prize is in the hands of the French Department which may call in members of other departments, as the Department of Public Speaking, to aid it in the administration of the prize. The question which was chosen for this year is Resolved. That the Briand Proposal for a European Union is for the Best interests of international Goodwill.
