Blueprint
(Editor's Note: In the following letter,, a former,
University of Nebraska journalism student, Bttl Wade,
draws his blueprint, for the world of tomorrow, the "brave,
new world" for which he is fighting. The Nebraskan re
prints Mr. Wades letter in the belief that is has a signifi
cant message for all Americans today, stating as it does
one CI's answers to the oft-heard question, "Just what
is America Fighting For?")
A SOLDIER'S BLUE PRINT F OR THE BRAVE
NEW WORLD: A G. I. in the jungles of New Guinea has
plenty of time in which to think. The one thing a soldier
thinks of most is of home and his future life of the world
of his tomorrow when the last shot will have been fired.
That is the way I have spent my spare time. First of all,
deciding what the new world should be and then formulat
ing the necessary steps to accomplish that goal.
Our new world, as I see it, will be a democratic world.
People will be free to choose their own government
whether it be socialistic, monarchial. democratic or a com
bination of these three. All peoplewill have economic
freedom as well as political freedom.. The wealth of the
earth shall belong to all people of the earth and each
shall produce those goods which they are most capable of
economically producing with free trade providing an
equitable distribution of the total production. Poverty and
economic dependency will be eliminated and all of the
people will have all the necessities and luxuries of life.
Is there anyone who doubts that our world's production
and wealth is sufficient to provide for the wants and needs
of the world's population? The problem becomes one of
just distribution of that production and wealth.
Those people who are unable to produce will receive
an equal share of the world's production those who are
capable of production but unwilling to produce will be
forced to do so in order to live and charity will become
something that no longer exists all people will be econo
mically free.
Freedom of thought, speech and religion will be univer
sal. The right of assembly, of petition, of recall will be in
violate. Freedom of education, and of law will prevail.
This, then is the brave, new world we would build.
What are the steps we must take to create it?
As concerns goverment, each country shall hold an
election, free of all restraints and duress, in which the
people shall choose their forms of government. The choice
once made shall not be binding if at any time in the future
a majority wishes to amend their government. Government
shall be of the people and for the people. i
Each country having: chosen their government will.
now choose representatives for the world council which
shall consist of equal representation from all of the coun
tries of the world.. This council will be sub-divided into
Economic, governmental and Maintenance of Peace divi
sions. The Economic Division will have jurisdiction over
the production, resources of the world and its equitable
distribution. Subject to the will of the entire council the
Economic Division will provide for the wants and needs of
all the Earth's populace. It will determine the goods that
will be produced by each country according to their re
sourcas and ability to produce economically. Those coun
tries having the facilities to transport will distribute the
goods of the world as directed by the Economic Division.
Want and poverty will disappear from the face of the earth.
. The second division of the world council will be known
as the Governmental Division. It shall govern relations be
tween the countries of the world. The right of each gov
erment to govern its own peoples shall not be usurped but
the relatioons of these governments to each other shall be
governed bv this division of the world council. Its rulings
shall be final and revokable only by the parent body, the
World Council in its entirey.
The Division for Maintenance of Peace shall consist
of a world Army, Navy and Air Force. Separate countries
will berefit of military organizations and shall only have
those police necessary to maintain law and order within
their separate countries. Any country which attempts to
dominate another country or which fails to observe the
peace shall be rendered harmless immediately by the world
military powers and by economic sanctions. Any disputes
between countries shall be settled by the world council in
its entirety.
This, then is my blue print for the brave new world.
It will necessitate the elimination of traditions and exist
ing governments. Its rewards will be great and universal;
Freedom from want, freedom of government and an ever
lasting peace on earth.
By following this blue print, the ills of our sick world
will be cured.
Imperialism will be done away with. The economic
subjection of the many by the few will be stopped. Dom
ination of the goods and resources of the earth shall cease.
Trade barriers will be lifted. War become an impos
sibility. Justice and Freedom shall reign supreme all
peoples shall be free and equal and prosperity will be uni
versal. In closing I want to enlist the help of all the men who
are how opposing tyranny and aggression with the build
ing of our brave, new world by following this blue print.
We must not fail this time for the next war may very well
prove the end of man on earth.
PFC. WILLIAM V. WADE.
LETTERIP
Well, everyone has his problems, and the
Union doesn't want to make life any more
erim for vou so that with a brief word of
explanation, we shall clarify all and return
to the washtubs. me corn jtd is going
to have cafeteria service all day long with
the EXCEPTION OF EVENINGS and SUN
DAYS. Whv? We don't dare let ourselves
get started on the reasons because it would
take too long, but it boils down to the tact
that we do not have enough help, either
full-time or part-time. We have spent
enough time advertising and worrying with
no results until we decided that sell -service
might be the answer and might provide the
greatest economy and efficiency of labor.
That's what we claim anyway! Some folks
say: "It won't work." We say that these
doubters must first . give us a chance or
must find another solution. And we warn
that he who casts the first stone may find
himself swathed in a white jacket waiting
tables!

Union Director
School spirit (mental form) is at its
best these days in the AWGWAN-Nebras-kan
office. The Nebraskan staff, in its us
ual competent manner, has been losing
everything from rulers to news editors.
Now that the AWGWAN has moved in, the
Nebraskan has someone to blame for its
inefficiency.
The calmness and effectiveness of the
AWGWAN workers has so overwhelmed
the Nebraskan staff, that it has left the re
gion in a stupor. In fact, had not several
of the AWGWAN staff noticed the lack of
activity, the last two issues of the paper
would not have gone to press. Rumor has
it that the entire personnel of the Nebras
kan will resign to join the ranks of AW
GWAN workers.
The AWGWAN staff has been working
diligently to get out the first issue, due
in a few days. However, the interference
brought about by Nebraskan workers has
made it very difficult to publish the AW
GWAN. Recently, several ragateers were
caught trying to sabotage AGWAN type
writers. It is a very common occurrence
to find Nebraskan reporters pestering the
busy "AWGWANERS" with such questions
as, "What did you do with our ruler?" In
variably, the ruler is under a pile of copy
on tne desk of the Nebraskan news editor.
Now, I ask you, is this fair? How can
we put out a magazine with all this inter
ference? All I can say is, AWGWAN!!!
