isn't enforced."

SORENSON
Sorenson:
Impact
Great
By Priscilla Mullins
Senior Staff Writer
The chances for America to
have "tremendous impact' on
41 1 1 . .
me wona community are
great said Dr. Frank Sorenson.
Sorenson, said that "Every
panei group, in my opinion,
presented most sincerely the
points of view of their re
spective countries regarding
tne theme, bearch for Peace.
"They indicated that there
is no alternative other than
to solve the problems that
will guarantee world peace
because a nuclear war is un-
thinkable."
Two University faculty members, Dr. Frank Sorenson,
chairman of the Department of Educational Services and
Dr. Roberto Esquenazi-Mayo, chairman of the romance
language department, attended an international meeting of
statesmen, diplomats, theologians and philosophers in New
York last week.
The meeting, called Pacempeace Inon Terrisearth
(Peace On Earth), was called for the purpose of providing
an intellectual workshop for a free and far-reaching dis
cussion of some central ideas and issues that must be
faced before any form of peace on earth is reached.
There were five objectives for the convocation, which
was held under the auspices of the Center for the Study
of Democratic Institutions. They were:
How to obtain universal acceptance of the idea of co
operation among nations of differing ideological and social
systems.
How to achieve sufficient flexibility so that all interna
tional conflicts can be settled by negotiation, and how
to devise mechanisms for peaceful, social and political
change.
How to obtain recognition of the urgent need for rapid
progress toward nuclear and conventional disarmament.
How to take actions and develop understanding
to create mutual trust among the nations.
How to encourage further development of the UN
so that its means and structure may become equal to
the magnitude of its tasks.
The convocation was attended by leaders of many
nations throughout the world. "I doubt if any convocation
in our time has ever assembled such an outstanding
group of world leaders," Sorenson said.
Some of the many speakers included Adlai Stevenson,
representative of the United States to the United Na
tions; Earl Warren, chief justice of the United States
Supreme Court; Carlo Schmid, vice president of the Bunde
stag, the Federal Republic of Germany; Hubert Humphrey,
vice president of the United States; and U Thant, secretary-general
of the United Nations.
In a study booklet, put out for the convocation partici
pants, were these words:
"Men all over the world have today or will soon have
the rank of citizens in independent nations. No one wants
to feci subject to political power located outside his own
country or ethnic group. Thus, in our day, in very many
human beings the inferiority complex which eudured for
hundreds and thousands of years is disappearing, while in
others there is an attenuation and gradual fading of the
corresponding superiority complex which had its roots
in socio-economic privileges, sex or political standing.
"On the contrary, the conviction that all men are equal
by reason of their natural dignity has been generally ac
cepted. . . If a man becomes conscious of his rights, he
must become equally aware of his duties."
The booklet, "Pacem in Terris," or Peace on Earth,
was formed around one of the last encyclical letters of
Pope John XXIII.
CITY
GOV. MORRISON suggested
that President Johnson ini
tlate a "presidential investi
gation" on the closing of the
Veterans Administration hos
pitals, including the one in
Lincoln. The governor said
he would take his proposal
directly to the White House
"We believe the President has
been given misinformation on
the Lincoln hospital." Morri
son said.
STATE
TWO WORLD HERALD
Staff members were among 15
Nebraska individuals and or
ganizations given awards
Sunday by the .Freedoms
Foundation. They were hon
ored for "contribution toward
a better understanding and a
greater appreciation of t h e
American way of life." Staff
members are Harry Barrow
and James Denney.
BEEF BOOSTERS will fly
to Honda next week to pro
mote Nebraska beef at a new
restaurant in Orlando. Nebras
ka beef will be served exclu
sively at the Paddock Restau
rant and will feature the Cen
tennial sirloin. The Idea
Packing Company of Gordon
is supplying the beef. Citrus
fruits and juices will be sent
back to Nebraska in the beef
trucks.
NATION
MALCOLM X, bearded Ne
gro advocate of violence
against the whites in the Civ
il Rights struggle, was assas
sinated Sunday in a hail
ot gunnre wnne making a
speech to his followers. Police
have blamed the assassination
on the Black Muslims, a mill
tant Negro organization which
ousted Malcolm X recently
only to have him set up his
own black nationalist organi
zation and launch a recruit
ing drive to woo Black Mus
lims as members.
U.S. SPY HANGS in Damas
cus, Syria, despite a plea for
mercy from the United States
Embassy. Farhan Atassi was
executed and his body was
left hanging from the gallows
erected . in Damascus's Al
Marja Square seven hours, a
practice standard in that
country. He was sentenced on
a charge of spying on the
Syrian Army for the United
States.
SOVIET AMBASSADOR
Nikolai Fedorenko contended
the United States has lost its
fight to take away the gen
eral assembly vote of Russia
and 12 other debtor nations.
He said it became a dead is
sue when the United States
agreed to a roll call without
challenging the voting rights
of nations two years in
arrears.
Throughout the discussions
Sorenson said, there was talk
ot coexistence. "This is us
ually thought of as the re
lationship between the Soviet
Union and the United States
but in this case coexistence
meant that all the nations of
the world must coexist and
must assume the responsibili
ties that go with this.
The world leaders also dis
cussed the possibility of the
development of a body of in
ternational law, and accord
ing to Sorenson, about o n
fourth of the time at the con
vocation was devoted to this
subject.
"It was very evident that
there is a real difference in
the philosophies of the com
munist and democratic na
t ons." he said. "There was
a real recognition of the So
viet Union as one leader and
the United States as the oth
er leader of the world today."
Both the United States and
the Soviet Union maintained
nositions that they couldn't
avoid the leadership they held
Sorenson said.
Representatives from the
Soviet Union said that one
half of the world today is hun
gry, diseased and uuieraie
but these people are no longer
satisfied with this.
Whether we like it or not
in manv countries without a
middle class, just the weaitny
and the poor, there is bound
to be revolution.
Sorenson said that the So
viets maintained that because
of this the United States
should stay out of these coun
tries and let them solve tfieir
own problems.
In response to these state
ments, Sorenson said the
Americans asked the Soviets
'Are you saying we should not
have any influence when you
formulate teams to go into
these countries and stir up
trouble?"
"The Soviets had no an
swer, sorenson saio.
Sorenson iad three main
observations on the impor
tance of the convocation.
First, he said, it was held
in New York. With the United
Nations there, and it being
somewhat of a world center,
it is "being accepted now as
the world capital.
Second, the participation
from all parts of the world
was sincere and effective. He
said he felt that these people
were "Americanized" to an
extent, because they all spoke
English except during their
speeches, and were able to
associate in an "at-h o m e"
manner with the Americans.
Sorenson's third observation
was that tne "American in
fluence is extending around
the world. I would predict
English will some day be the
international language. I
would also predict that the
political and economic theor
ies underlying our very suc
cessful United States of Amer
ica will be accepted in other
nations."
Backing up his statement,
Sorenson quoted Lord Cara-
don, minister of state for for-
ign affairs for the United
Kingdom: "There will always
be a United States of Ameri
ca.
Sorenson said he thought
the "world will become more
and more friendly. This may
not be in my time, but it may
be in the lives of today's col
lege students."

ESQUENAZI-MAYO
Esquenazi:
Hope Still
Present
By Wayne Kreuscher
Junior Staff Writer
"We made no decisions,
passed no resolutions, we
left with the same thing we
came with, a hope for peace,"
said Dr. Roberto Esquenazi
Mayo. "I was very honored to be
invited to the meeting,"
Esquenazi said, "because of
the number of people from
different countries who were
there, and the variety of per
sons who spoke. Each repre
sentative spoke for himself.
The only official representa
tive was Hubert Humphrey."
"There is a hope for peace.
The speakers from the United
States, South America, India
and many other countries ex
pressed the hope for peace
and freedom," he said.
Esquenazi said that the
framework for the confer
ence's talks and thinking was
the vision of world order con
tained in Pope John XXIII's
encyclical Pacem in Terris
(Peace on Earth).
"This encyclical,"," Esque
nazi said, "is considered by
many authorities to be the
outstanding document of the
20th Century. Most encyclicals
of this type are addressed to
only the Catholic world, but
Pope John directed his to the
whole free world."
He explained that it basi
cally was a call to the build
ing of a world community
governed by institutions cap
able of preserving peace.
Esquenazi, who is consid-
sidered an expert on Latin
American affairs, was espe
cially interested in the meet
ings concerning Latin America.
He explained that Latin
Americans, by and large, are
committed to democratic
ideas and are against any kind
of tyranny.
"Latin America is definite
ly interested in peace within
the framework of democratic
institutions in order to develop
their own economies and im
prove their standard of liv
ing," he said.
Warner Tells YR's
Budget Is Difficult
Stale Senator Jerry War
ner, in his speech to tne
Young Republicans last
night, said that problems fac
ing the present Nebraska
State Legislature needed to
be met and handled now.
"This session is quite a bit
different than the one two
years ago," Warner said.
'The major problems were
then deferred to the end of
the session, while this year
the bills come up relatively
fast."
An audience of 30 YR's had
waited for the arrival of War
ner, who had been delayed by
traffic. The meeting was held
at 7:00 p.m. in the Student
Union.
'We have gotten to the
point where we can no longer
avoid the issues," Warner
said. "The most difficult
problem is the state budget
and how to finance it.
Education will suffer if the
state revenue becomes de-
pleated, he said. "We don't
want to say Tm sorry
there's no room' to promising
students."
There is a need in the state
government to provide lead
ership, Warner said.
We as senators have a re
sponsibility to be a little
ahead of our constituents in
providing answers to these
problems," he said.
Taxing is the only means
of raising revenue for the
state, he observed.
Changes are due In the
property taxing bills, Warner
said. "A bill is being consid
ered to change the criteria
for value in property. Market
value alone would under this
bill determine the taxable
property of a person," he
said.
"The best tax is one that
has a low rate and reaches
as many people as possible,"
Warner said.
"A Vz to 2 per cent sales
tax would be acceptable to
me."
Annexation in metropolitan
areas is one of the most con
troversial bills in the session,
Warner said.
The particular cause of this
dispute is Omaha's recent at
tempt to annex a portion of
Sarpy County.
"It's unfortunate that the
bill wil not be decided upon
the merits of various annex
ing methods, but on the emo
tional issue of whether people
should be able to vote or
not," Warner said.
The bill under consideration
calls for an approval by vote
from the residents of an area
before that area can be anr
nexed by a city.
