Library Adds New Books To Collection sembly Thursday. Mr. Fujita told about the Korean refugee students in Japan, explain ing what they were studying and how we had helped them. He stres sed the fact that Japan’s program is unique; for, in addition to desig nating the money we send to spe cific students, we require corres pondence from the recipients. Mr. Fujita pointed out how necessary education is and how important it is that we give the students only part of the necessary amount; it provides them with an incentive to help themselves and earn the rest, and it enables them to accept the money without feeling totally in debted to us. In smaller groups, Mr. Fujita said that in Japan the Koreans are the object of racial discrimination as the Negroes are in the South. He also discussed his ideas of the for eign exchange program, and he feels that on the whole it is worth more to have mature men and women who are well-educated and who are interested in the people of the country they visit than to have young students whose primary ob jective is travel and touring repre sent their country. He thinks an exchange program of men and wo men who can talk freely and ob jectively would do more for human understanding and world peace than an exchange of younger peo pie. Mr. Fujita was remarkably witty, extremely friendly to all. He ex pressed his delight in his visit to Salem and hoped the Refuge Pro gram will be continued on campus. is to find a means to peace and freedom without resort to war. We can’t always proceed under the theory that if trouble arises one | nation will back down. One day a nation may attack another be- - cause it feels it has the advantage on its side or a nation may have a mad man at its head. The world today is like a bunch of kinder garten children playing with a re volver. Control over the emotions and social forces have failed to keep pace with technological develop ment. Unfortunately the world today both loves and hates war. We have failed to beat our swords into plow shares. We still cherish w'ar as the final judge between empires because we sometimes think that war means freedom, power, and glory. In fact, war is almost a part of life. The U. N. has slightly tempered this attitude. At least this organization is a beginning. The difficulty is that it is hard to find a substitute for war because we arc so accustomed to it. The life line to peace is woven of four strands: universal disarmament, strengthening of the U. N., disen gagement from crises, and a “holy war” which wall make the benefits of technology available to all the world. Hughes, Richard: The Fox m the Attic. An opening novel of a planned historical series to be called the Human Predicament. The action covers one month in 1923 tvhen Europe was suffering from an in ternal malaise of which Hitler was the symptom. Written in a polished and dramatic style with strong character portrayal. Morton, Frederic: The Rothschilds. The story of a family who has used their solidarity and singleness of purpose to build a vast economm empire. However, the emphasis is on the individualistic and human side of the clan. Interesting, witty, and informative. Vaid, Krishna: Steps in Darkness. A tense and agonizing story of the relationship of a Hindu boy with his family and community. While he searches for love and understanding, they are concerned mostly with petty bickering, eco nomic want, and outmoded mores. Drury, Allen: A Shade of Differ ence. As Dr. Thomas emphasized, it is important that our generation, both understand and find a solu tion to these challenges. If we fail, the results could be fatal. A sequel to Advise and Consent. The locale has changed from Washington to the United Nations, and the plot from national to in ternational politics. Convincing and timely. Carson, Rachel: Silent Spring. A controversial account of man’s use of poisons to control insets, re sulting in a chemical imbalance which is harmful to man and ani mals. The author, a biologist and geneticist, writes with authority and feeling. Faulkner, William: The Reivers; A Reminiscence. Told in a manner of a children’s classic, but packed with satire for the reader who will look beneath the ridiculous and humorous plot for subtitles of meaning. Tuchraan, Barbara: The Guns of August. An interesting study by a com petent historian and interesting writer of the background and open ing campaign of World War II. GOING HOME FOi TME WEEKEI^O?
