Student dissent
is 'new toy9 Plaza
Student dissent and protest is
a "new toy" that American
young people have just
discovered, according to Galo
Plaza the Secretary General of
the Organization of American
States (OAS).
At a Lincoln news conference
Friday Plaza said young
Americans had matured since
his college days in the United
States. Coming from Ecuador
in the 20s he found American
students to be "childish" with
no interests beyond the cam
pus. He called the present
situation a normal development
of interest in the outside
world.
Plaza stated his belief that a
high tide of dissent will be
reached after which student
activity will normalize at a
high level. He feels this will
neutralize the effects of ex
tremists and led to greater
responsibility..
He does not believe violent
revolution is; likely in Latin
America now because the
Catholic Church is beginning to
change and because a middle
class is emergjng. He said the
OAS wants "peaceful change in
the traditional structure with

emphasis on social, economic
and educational change.
Noting that the Marxist
' government in Chile was freely
elected he stated a belief that
democracy would continue in
that country. He also said
violence has come from groups
to the left of Russia, whih ac
cording to Plaza, has been a
moderating influence in Latin
America.
In Plaza's opinion the anti
American sentiment came
from Teddy Roosevelt's "Big
Stick" policy. He thinks the
U.S. should play a role in Latin
America but "it can't continue
to tell Latin Americans what's
good for them."
Commenting on recent kid
naping of foreign officials in
Latin American countries
Plaza said, "The way to stop
kidnaping is to demonstate that
it doesn't pay": Of such gue
rrilla actions he said, "This is
war, a different kind of war but
it is war."

Peace Pilgrim , ,,,,
'Until man learns rpeaes'
She's a crusader, silver
haired evangelist preaching the
glories of inner peace. In her
own words, "I shall remain a
wanderer until mankind has
learned the way of peace,
walking until I am given
shelter and fasting until I am
given food."
She is the Peace Pilgrim who
walked into Lincoln recently
where she will address classes
at the University of Nebraska
and Nebraska Wesley an
University.
She started her pilgrimage
from Los Angeles on Jan. 1,
1953, and by 1954 had covered
25,000 miles all on foot. Her
goal is to inspire others to work
with her for peace.
On her travels she talks with
individuals on the street,
speaks to schools and
universities, church groups and
organizations.
"It would be impossible to
count my' speaking
engagements during a year,"
she said. "I've spoken to as
many as 12 different groups in
a. day and once spoke from 9
a.m. until midnight without
stopping to eat. My record for
sermons on Sunday is seven."
Since she has no money and .
is not affiliated with any
organization she has to rely on
the generosity of individuals for ,
food and lodging.
"I never plan ahead," sho ,
commented. "But you know
I've had a bed every night I've
been in Nebraska, since the ;
middle of September."

subject. Nothing is more
powerful than thought because
you create from thought," she
said. ,
According to the Peace
Pilgrim, a mature person
learns not only from his own
mistakes, but also from the
mistakes of others. Immature
people waste time making the
same mistakes over and over
again because they can't use
the expereinces of others to
their advantage.
"Usually the immature man
resorts to the jungle warfare of
tooth and claw when facing a
crisis," she added.
The world is going through a
crisis period now, she points
out, and peace or nuclear an
nihilation are the only
alternatives.
"Things have to get very bad
before the immature man will
do anything," she said. "Duel
ing is an example. Finally even
the dull-witted saw that dueling
was bad and that it solved
nothing."

"Now we're getting cose to
the time when war will no
longer be accepted. I believe
that time will come in my
lifetime," she said. '
Were there times when the
whole project looked hopeless
and she thought of giving up?
"No, never," she said. "I
firmly believe that all good ef
fort bears good fruit. So I keep
making good effort. Maybe the
fruit won't come in; my
lifetime, but It will come.!'
The Peace Pilgrim called the
"youth awakening" the most
gratifying thing she has been.
"The awakening takes two
parts. The first is the student
rebellion; a good rebellion
against society's false values
such as war, materialism,
pollution and hypocrasy," she
said.
"The second part is a deep
inner search within - each
person," she said. Now people
