Deplores Defeatism
In his talk he deplored the current spirit of defeatism toward establishing a permanent peace at
Uie conclusion or the present war.
Mr. Cousins condemned
Walter
Lippman's book, "U. S. War Alms,"
saying it is a dangerous book." He
as actually giving Germany the
balance of power in the post-wworld.
"The will to apply our intelligence" is the only thing lacked by
the American people to achieve permanent peace, Mr. Cousins believes.
"Before we can realize our opportunity," he said, "we will have to
recognize it"
Democracies Discussed
The early Gieek democracies were
discussed by Mr. Cousins as compared to modern ones. He advocated
the analyzation of these ancient
civilizations in light of present ones,
emphasizing that "no nation is immune from catastrophe." He attributed the failure of Greek democracy
of 2300 years ago to the inability of
those people to meet
demands of democracy; their permitting a war which started for the
defense of democracy to degenerate
Into a war of imperialism, and their
nabllity to transform their nation

last failure, he aTluucd to the inability of the American colonies for

to

"We can't afford the luxury of
another war," declared Mr. Cousins.
"The instruments of technology

to control them. This time peace
will have to be made for keeps."

A survey of student opinion on
the campus reflects a general pessimism about the war In the Pacific,
but optimism about the conflict

with Germany.
Some students stated that they
believed the war on both fronts will
end the latter part of this year or
the early part of 1946.
Victory Near In Germany
One junior coed said she believed
the war will end by early 1946. "It
is rather obvious that victory is
near in Germany," she said. "We
have gone into the Philippines and
the Japanese are practically cut off
from their war supplies in the
Netherlands East Indies."
She said tliat the main thing to
the advantage of the Japanese now

believe Gen. Douglas MacArthur
will take any action that he is not
certain of having well backed by
supplies," she said. "The Burma
road has been freed now and we
can send more supplies by that way
into China once Germany is defeated."
End In 1946
One sophomore student of journalism, agreeing with others that
the end of the war will come in 1946,
said she believed that every Japanese must be killed before our victory could be complete. "It's been
said that the only good Jap is a
dead one, and that's what I believe," she continued.

in such a perilous position that they

If they do that I believe Russia will

what Russia will do is now our big
question."
Two engineering students optimistically said they believed the
war, as a whole, would be over this
year. When asked why they felt It
would be over so soon they grinned
and one of them said, "Well, because my brother Is on his way to
the Pacific now, and I think that's
a good enough reason."
Matter Of Months
Some students believe that Germany's defeat is just a matter of
months but that Japan will lead us
into a hard and long struggle.
"Since the Japanese have not fiercely resisted our armies in the Philippines, they must be concentrating
on another drive to take place
soon," one coed with a three point
standing said. "The Japs will fight
t the !ait

in Berlin."

She said she believes
Russia will help us against Japan
once Germany surrenders. "The
Japanese will try in a big way to
hold on to China forever," she

stated.
Taken One By One
One freshman student said she
believed the Japanese islands must
be taken one by one and that each
will be as hard to get as the other.
"We feel we have lost many men
already, but we must expect to lose
many more in the Pacific," she declared.
Several soldiers said they felt the
quickest we could defeat Japan was
in three years, but Germany could
be defeated in nine months.
"I don't believe all that the optimistic radio commentators say," said
one soldier. "But I do believe that
it is physically impossible for Germany to hold out any longer."

the name he wrote was not Norman
Cousins, but Gustave Lamartine.
We, being the curious type, forgot our history and went in search
of an explanation. We looked in a
stack of encyclopedias, and the only
Lamartine was an Alphonse. Then
we decided to quiz Mr. Cousins, but
by this' time he had left the library.
We finally found him in studio C
at tlie radio station.
Mr. Cousins told us that in 1943
he, as editor of the Saturday Review
of Literature, received a letter from
a Gustave Lamartine, one time head
of the French Academy of Design.
M. Lamartine wrote that in 1934 he
had wagered 50.000 francs with
Max Gerhardt. the late Austrian
hat designer, that he could design
a preposterous hat which would become fashionable with women. Two
months before Gerhardt's death in
1935. Lamartine had received the
60.000 francs from Gerhardt
In
1937 Lamartine had resigned from
his position as head of the French
Academy of Design and had come
to the United States in 1941.
Realizing that these hats, which
he had designed, took so many of
the materials ("yards of veil and
dozens of hat pins, etc.") vital for
war production, Lamartine wrote to
the editor of the Saturday Review
of Literature asking that his letter
