It's Up To You
The miniature peace conference proper gets under way
this afternoon, when the twelve conference committees
meet to discuss such problems as a postwar world security
organization, the treatment of war criminals, the treat
ment of Japan and Germany, and the settlement of terri
torial problems. The groundwork has been laid; the con
ference itself begins.
The planning committee, headed by Barbara Stahl, has
done an excellent job in organizing and planning the con
ference, attending to the million and one details. Their job
involved much hard work, much responsibility, and the
committee has performed it well. The planning stage of
the conference has thus been successfully carried off.
But the entire conference is still very much in the
"make or break' stage. The excellent work already done will
come to nothing if, from now till the end of the conference
early in March, individual students fail to take an active
interest, fail to discharge their responsibilities.
The conference has been set up so that each student,
through the various organized groups, may take an active
part. The conference, indeed, has been set up so that each
student must take an active part in the experiment if it is
to succeed. Interested, active participation in the various
group and committee meetings, general convocations, and
plenary sessions this is the responsibility of the individual
student. The success or failure of the entire peace confer
ence depends on how well that responsibility is discharged.

Letterip
To seek an honorable peace
with the United Nations follow
ing the defeat of the fascist forces.
is the objective of a joint German-Japanese
Council for Inter
national Peace and Justice, the
formation of which was an
nounced today.
In an appeal issued to the
United Nations at a time when
leaders of the "Big Three" nations
are meeting on tne tsiacK oea.
the council, composed of anti
fascist German and Japanese
refugees, declared that a fair but
firm peace settlement is the only
way to provide for lasting world
peace.
The text of their statement
as follows:
'In the interests of establishi
ng a fair and lasting peace in
order to promote the world
brotherhbod of man and provide
lor prosperity for all, the peace
settlement should include tr
conditions and terms:
1. Immediate admittance of
Germany and Japan and the other
defeated nations to the proposed
world organization of nations.
2. Germany and Japan should
be kept territorially and economi
cally infari in order to avoid eco
nomic chaos as well as political
and psychological repercussions to
the whole world.
3. No punitive reparations.
4. The occupation of the de
feated nations should be by a
small but effective allied force
which would be withdrawn at the
earliest possible time and thereby
avoid stirring up resentment in
the peoples of the occupied na
tions which would sow the seeds
for a future world war.

of specific war crimes without the
mass persecution of croups so as
to avoid creating a spirit of re
venge in the people.
6. We favor the internationali
zation of the Pacific nossessions of
Japan, guaranteeing equal access
of their trade and raw materials
to all nations. Korea should be
made autonomous.
7. There should be equal access
by all peoples to all the raw ma
terials and markets of the world.
Germanv and Japan should
be permitted to create a free gov
ernment of their own enoosing,
with the approval of the world
oiganization of Unfted Nations.
