Taking an active stand against "American imperialists and the warmongering policy of President Conant," the Harvard Anti-War Committee yesterday announced plans for a huge demonstration to be held in Memorial Hall on the evening before Armistice Day.
"It is unfortunate that students should find their educators supporting these imperialists, who, for their own interests, wish to force Youth and Labor into the Second World War," the H. A. W. C. protested in a statement yesterday.
Their program includes support of a popular war referendum amendment to the Constitution "to take the war-making power out of Congress and put it into the hands of the people," the statement said.
Additional elements are opposition to the increasing miniaturization, conscription, and war mobilization plans with their military dictatorship, and to the industrial mobilization plan.
"We support a united front of Youth and Labor against the entrance of the United States into the War," the statement of the executive committee said.
