Promote Public Interest

The conference, whose first session begins in the New Lecture Hall at 4 o'clock this afternoon is sponsored by the Massachusetts Chapter of the League of Nations Association and the Summer School. The program is held with the object of promoting thought and interest in public problems among Harvard students and faculty.

James T. Shotwell, director of the Commission for the Organization of Peace and of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, sounded the keynote to the conference, in a recent letter of greetings.

"The issue is now clearly before us," he said, "It is whether there will be continued anarchy with recurring war as the effective instrument of policy or whether we can build an alternative for war sufficiently coherent and practical to function in times of crisis."
