Candidates' Stand on Peace A Statement from American Citizens (Editor's note: In cooperating with the "Keep AmericOut o Europe's movement, the Daily Tar Heel has presented besides its own-the STS3SJS 01 view, the opinions of faculty members jjnd average siuu r statement written by Agnew H. IfvinTn'-sIlemran alumnus of the Class of 1935. Bahnson "tteltSn? September as a petition for American non-par-Sn ta the war. Readers of the Daily Tar Heel are urged to s.gn it and send it to their Congressmen.) Our allegiance is to the American Flag and to the ideals which it preTnts. Our duty is to preserve these ideals and to defend the United States. L w i..x 0-mp-nf with the statement of our Presi- we are m iicuxtjr 6" - 1C 1Qqq dent, Franldin D. Roosevelt, made in his speech of April 15, 1939, that "Nothing can persuade the people of the earth that any gov erning power has any right or need to inflict the consequences of war on its own or any other people save in the-cause of seW-ev.dent nA. v.. vw ... r. t T)n;ivtT 1 Vine npfinPfi home defense." We believe senator oom u "7! ,1 " V" t selfvident home defense when he says, "If we ever fight it must be on our own shores and in the defense of our homes against in vaders or oppressors." We do not believe that the defense of the United States requires that we defend or aid any European country by lending them money or sending them men. We are assured that our entrance into Eu rope's war for the defense of Democracy might result m our losing it at home, and we do not believe that our desire to aid any foreign country can justify our running this risk. We know from sad ex perience that entering Europe's wars does not help the cause of . democracy. Consequently, we believe that any act which endangers the peace of this country, unless it be unmistakably m the cause of self-evident home defense, is un-American, and is opposed to the best interests of our country. We believe that ttie extension of credit to any warring European nation will endanger the peace of this country. We do not believe that our entrance into the uropean war will help the cause of 1 Christianity. In John 18:36, Jesus said, "My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight tnat l snouia not u uc.wcu Jews- but now is my kingdom not from hence." Christianity is of the heart, and it will survive all tribulation and any form of gov ernment as long as those who style themselves Christians are sin cere in their belief. Furthermore, because we do not believe that our entrance into the war can help permanently to solve Europe's troubles, or can effectively aid the cause of Democracy, or can be regarded as truly , ! V..4. ,,u Vio ipofmrtinn nf American ideals, Irnnsiian, UUb may xcouiv aaa w.v . we therefore believe that any act which may tend to bring this country into war win oe an act Kaius uic wov .wavUvU United States and of civilization. In this belief, we solemnly conclude that our duty as American citizens, and that the duty of our Congress, is to keep this country out of the European war. This survey, compiled by Mrs! A. T. Bonnell for a group of interested Chapel Hill voters, gives some 1 idea of how North Carolina candidates for Congress stand on the issue of Amer ica's foreign policy. The Daily Tar Heel urges that students clip the sur vey and mail it to persons who will vote next Saturday. District I Lindsay C. Warren, incumbent, Washington: Favors policy of admin istration. .

Does not think any country will in vade us, but believes in being pre pared since it seems there are those who crave world power.. Charles L.

"We feel" representative of the group said yes terday, "that Memorial hall will o' fer superior facilities for a camoni gathering of this kind, and that in addition that the spirit of emotion alism and hysteria which seems to be on the rise over the nation should be de-emphasized as much as possible by our abstaining from exciting pa. rades and flagwavirAg. "The discussion planned for to night will be an intelligent analysis of the peace lover's stand, accompa nied by the obvious benefits of an open forum discussion. The peace commit tee urges every student to become in terested in the issues for discussion and to turn out for a rational, level headed presentation of the stand for peace in Memorial hall at 8 o'clock tonight."
