Pusey Commends World Federalist Peace Activities

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

President Pusey, in a letter to David Hason, president of the Harvard World Federalists, commended the organization as a group working "for better relationships among nations through the agency of the United Nations."

Terming the work of the World Federalists "the kind of daringly imaginative effort which now deserves everyone's support," Pusey went on to defend the United Nations' worth to the United States. "This organization does not represent a threat to either the security or independence of the United States, as has sometime been mistakenly represented; but it is on the contrary an effort to establish a legal situation in which nations can work together to maintain peaceful and constructive relationships among themselves."

Pusey's letter heralded the start of United Nations Week, which began October 18. To mark the week's theme of exploring new means of making the United Nations a more effective agency for peace, the World Federalists are joining the Harvard U.N. Council in sponsoring a panel discussion this Thursday.

Professors Holcombe, Cheever, Sohn, and Hopper will be the members of the panel, which will discuss the topic: The United Nations--A New Charter?

Scheduled for 8:30 p.m., the program will be in Emerson D, and is open to the public.
