Friday afternoon.
"I think it is a very patriotic
way of showing student interest in
world affairs," he stated. "If we
ever have a peace settlement that
lasts, it must be approved of by
all the people."
In answer to questions about
the question of the voting power
of the security council which cre
ated much discussion, Brownell
expressed the idea that the Dum
barton Oaks plan must be flexible
and that is what the delegates
must work for in the San Fran-

Schossberger
Surveys Inner
Europe Future
"Austria and Italv Testing
Ground for Future Europe," a
lecture bv Miss Emilv Schoss-
berger, university editor, was pre
sented Wednesday night in Sosh
aduitonum as part oi the uni-,
versity night-class lecture series,
"International Problems Just
Ahead."
Tracing the history of Italy
back to the time of the Risogi
mento, Miss Schossberger outlined
the ideas of the statesmen of that
epoch w'hich are again the ideas
and ideals of the new Italian cabi
net which is struggling to achieve
a measure of unity and political
thought in half-liberated Italy.
Miss Schossberger surveyed the
history and development of fas
cism as a form of government
and gave a vivid picture of the
lives of people under that regime,
drawn from her own observa
tion. Explaining the importance of
Austria as an idea, as the mediator
of different cultures in Central
Europe and by its geographical
position and its historic tradition,
Miss Schossberger stated Austria s
position in this war as the first
victim of aggression after a five
year internal struggle against fifth
columnists. She pointed to the
Austrian underground, composed
of workers, monarchists, and mili
tant catholics, as the only one
functioning inside the Greater
German Reich and expressed the
hope that Austria, once liberated,
will be able to constitute and re
tain independence in a Danubian
Federation of Free and independ
ent peoples.
She traced the parallels in the
character of the peoples, who,
never considering themselves a
nation, but rather a conglomera
tion of different peoples, had de
veloped a universalistic, super-
national attitude.
