STUDENTS WANT LONG PEACE

President Lowell has promised to speak at the first meeting of the Harvard League of Nations Society, which has been organized in the University to show the strength of the feeling that exists here for a union of nations to enforce peace.

Several members of the College have formed the nucleus of the society. All members of the University are eligible to join the society. The following propositions will be put before all those desiring to become members:

"Believing that the formation of the coming peace conference, of a League of Nations, will best fulfill the purpose for which our men have fought, and that such a league must be supported by united public opinion, now, and after its formation, we, the undersigned students of Harvard University, desire to associate ourselves in a society which shall have as its one purpose the formation of enlightened opinion upon this subject."

To accomplish the purpose of the society, meetings shall be held from time to time, at which the most capable speakers available will interpret advanced thought on the subject, and endeavor to answer questions.

The spontaneous reception which this proposal met at the hands of the University met at the hands of the University men is shown by the fact that in the course of about two hours time on Monday afternoon, eighty men out of eighty-five approached, signed the paper. Among these are men of the S. A. T. C., the Naval Unit, three Chinese, and representatives from India, Armenia, and the Phillipines. Three of the men who did not sign desired to consider the matter further before signing; one was not sufficiently familiar with the subject to justify his signature, and the fifth believed in the proposal but did not wish to sign. Other papers will be in the hands of various men of the University and those who believe that the proposal is worthy of their help are invited to sign.
