Holliday, Wilkin Present Case for World Federalism

(Continued from Page 1, Col. 1)

damental objective and strategy of strengthening the United Nations into a limited federation which is able to prevent war and give to the people of the world a security which no nation today can offer to its people.

What we are talking about here is juridical order, the essence of which is an organization to keep the peace and to compel the decision of disputes by peaceful litigation in accordance with judicial process under an independent judiciary. An international federation with legislative, executive, and judicial functions, limited to the one sphere of prevention of war, does not have to depend on what kind of governments its constituent members have within their own borders.

Formula Is Difficult

So far as representation is concerned, no one proposes a representation on the basis of population. Some form of weighted representation would have to be worked out reflecting the industrial, political and cultural development of the various sections of the world.

Such a formula would, of course, be difficult to agree upon, but it is certainly not an insurmountable difficulty which would make the prevention of war impossible.

What Russia's response would be we will never know until we make the offer. Certainly the effort, with Russia's co-operation, to strengthen the United Nations into a world federation would have to be accompanied by negotiation with Russia for an over-all world settlement.

If Russia refuses to go along, it is possible to make a start toward a world federation through the creation, under the United Nations Charter, of a limited organization, open to all at any time who wish to join.

Such an organization would not be inconsistent with the continuance and maintenance of he United Nations.

There is now pending in Congress a resolution, sponsored by 111 congressmen and 22 senators, that "it should be a fundamental objective of the foreign policy of the United States to support and strengthen the United Nations and to seek its development into a world federation, open to all nations, with defined and limited powers adequate to preserve peace and prevent aggression, through the enactment, interpretation and enforcement of world law."

Make Our Objective Clear

If that is adopted as our government's foreign policy, it would make clear to the world that our objective is not the maintenance of peace by preponderance of power, but that we seek that power merely as an instrument toward the accomplishment of peace through the only means which has ever brought peace, to-wit, juridical order.

With such an objective our record in history would be cleared, and the presently doubting world would understand that what we are doing in international affairs has a worthy objective.

How can anyone say today that world order peacefully arrived at is impossible? Are we

going to make it impossible by refusing to try? The Chinese have a saying to the effect that a march of a thousand miles begins with the first step. The way to begin is to begin.

We should be beginning and taking the first step now, by making up our mind as a people that we want world order and have the faith and courage to take the lead toward that goal.

Certainly the accomplishment of that objective is terribly difficult, and the various difficulties must be considered and analyzed. They should not, how-ever, be set up as hopeless impediments.

The despondent prophets to whom we referred in our opening paragraph stress most the question of sovereignty, the method of representation in a world organization, and the necessity of such an organization being based upon democracy within the borders of its constituent states.

So far as sovereignty is concerned, no nation has any sovereignty beyond its borders except the power to wage aggressive war, and to call that sovereignty is certainly a misnomer.

What we are considering is a world federation limited to dealing with the international problems, with which individual nations are powerless to deal; and no reasonable world federalist is proposing to give any international organization jurisdiction to deal with the domestic problems of nations.

No Time to Wait As to worldwide democracy, certainly it will be a long time before all of the people of the world will be capable of self-government. There is not time to wait until all of the world becomes democratic.

It is not necessary, however, for a federation to be composed of nations having the same form of government.

Set Shock Absorber Sales Record

In an all-out effort, shooting toward an award trip to the Monroe Shock Absorber Plant at Monroe, Michigan, Cleveland Division Salary service stations set what may prove to be an all-time Sohio record for accessory sales in a two-month period. The eager salesmen sold a total of 6,134 shock absorbers and $96,396 worth of accessories during March and April.

Lorain and Fulton, one of the stations on Ed Memmer's west side route, won the contest. Managed by Paul Matthaeus, the crew includes Francis Castka, Michael Szabo, Richard Uliskey, Donald Wilkens, Thomas Musto, Alvin Pfouts, and Robert Morlan. During the contest they averaged 59.6 shocks per man and $477.50 accessory dollars per man (Ed Memmer's route registered 20.5 shocks per man and $259.23 accessory dollars per man, the largest dollar per man sales ever recorded at the Cleveland Division.) A. F. Fulton, manager of salary service stations, challenges anyone to show a better record tor a comparable period.

On May 23 Cleveland's five salary station supervisors, the leading managers, and the champion salesmen from each .route traveled to Monroe, Michigan. After seeing how shock absorbers are made, they spent the night at a lodge maintained by Monroe.
