Axis Disarmament Will
Solve Peace Terms-Norris
Much of the anticipated squab
bling over terms of the peace
allied nations hope to put into
effect can be eliminated by mak
ing it a primary requirement that
there be complete and final dis
armament of the axis nations,
former Senator George W. Norris
said in his convocation address at
the Union last night.
Citing Russian interest in ex
tending her boundaries on the
west as one of the issues over
which the allies might well dis
agree, Norris said Russia would
not be concerned over this if she
could be certain that sometime
in the post-war era another armed
Germany will not rise to threaten
her.
"Many of the little things we
would like to see in a treaty will
fade away if complete disarma
ment is carried out," he said.
Successful disarmament of the
so-called aggressor nations will
be followed by a gradual decline

there will be world-wide distaste
for armaments and threats of
force, he added.
"If we are going to get any
thing of this war it must be
perpetual peace," he emphasized.
"This dear old world cannot stand
a third world war."
Mr. Norris emphasized the im
portance of preparing to feed the
conquered nations and helping
them restore decent living condi
tions. The people of the United
States will find that even though
great sacrifices are involved there
will be great joy in playing the
role of Good Samaritan, he said.
