Mrs. RooH4*v«*lt cited the m»‘etin^s
that were held in Dutchess County.

Yonth Section of the Kmergency

• then I think we may reRard that
ffe-1 as a very hop‘*ful siRn. Certain
ly. when I was younR. none of us
would have thought of doinR such a
‘hinR.”
Th»* meetinRS to which she refer-

of Che country for eight weeks last
Kijuimer by the KmerRency Peace
( iinipaiRn. They worked at produc-

holding forums. speaklnR In church-

r.ilirV places, in a concerti?d effort to
make more articulate the will to
prj*r4* existing in America.
They have already gone further
thsn many of us,” Mrs. Uoosevelt
biated. “The befit we cap do for
them is to give them all the help we
c.ui. They may one day achieve
wtj have . only wauted to
achieve.”
As the tirst definite step toward
cr> MallizatioH of a derision he reach-
• (I during his solitary vigil in the
iry wastes of the Antarctic, Hear Ad
miral Uirhard K. Byrd, U. S. N.. Ke-
fired. announce that he has accepted
»h«* Hf>norary Chairmanship of the
i:merg< nry Peace Campaign’s “No-
Korcign-War-Crusade,” to be launch
ed Y\pril 0.
A<liuiral Hyrd’s decision to join
tlie Kmergency }»eace Campaign is
in accord with the statement he
niad»' last June when he said he
would <l»'Vote the remainder of his
life with the exception of two
y«ars. which will be set aside for
further exploration --working for
for international friendship and good
will.
"I feel certain,” he said, “that
tlo- United States can make no con-
hirifitive and lasting contribution to
th»* pea«-e of the world by throwing
h4*r sons and substance into atiolher
c onflaRration in Kurope or Asia. The
ilkelih(.od that the United States
may be invaded is extremely remote;
ihe chief danger to us Is in being
drawn Into a war in Kurope or Asia.
Admiral Hyrd pointed out the
|M>wer of war propaganda, saying it
would flood this country “attempting
to arcjuse p<>ople to an emotional
fever high enough to plunge them
into another ‘holy war.’ ”
‘ The American people,” he said,
“must b»* prepared to withstand the
fliM>d of propaganda. We must be
prepared to withstand what Presi-
d<*nt Ftoosevelt at Chatauqua, N. Y.,
< haracterized as ‘fools* gold.’ Noth
ing is more important than that the
Am»*rican people be made to realize
the wisdom of sacrificing foreign
trade with belligerents rather than
biiiiding false prosperity on war
inark‘*ts. The cos:t of war la three
fold: cost of armaments In prepar
ing for war, in human life, and in
post-war depression.”
Admiral Byrd’s decision to take a
h ading role in this nation-wide Cam
paign for peace education In the cul
mination of a series of circumstan-
c‘ ; which, he inferred, changed his
‘•utlook on life. It becomes partial
fulfillment of a promise he made
himself as he lay “on the edge of
Jiff*” within the shadow' of the South
f^ole during his six-months’ lonely
vigil at Advance Base, the world's
last outpost. During that time.
’»ht*n he iay hovering between life
and d‘*ath from the effects of poison
ous fume« from a faulty oil stove, he
wrotf* is his diary:
■‘The distance and detachment of
this place seem to soften some hu*
•lan follies, others take ou added
•'igniflcance. But from here, the
KTf-at folly of all follies is the amaz
ing attitude of civilized nations to
ward each other. It seems a great
madness. If this attitude is not
changed. I don't see how our civili
zation. as we know it, will survive.”
A little later on. he made hi*
promise which is becoming fulfilled
now; *‘i( I survive this ordeal.” he
wrote. “I shall devote what is left of
"ij* life largely to trying to help fur
ther the friendship of my country
'"’ith other nations of the world.”
Admiral Byrd believes that the

Treaty, the armament race, and the
4»eoeral construction of military ma-
