General Stresses
Need for Liberalism
In Future Education
Speaking at the Commencement exercises of the PM unit
in Roberts Hall last Saturday
evening, Major General Joseph
N. Dalton, Director of Personnel for the Army Service Forces, called for the estabfishment
of an international police power to msintain peace in the
poet-war era, and at the same
time streseed the need for an
increased emphasis on liberal
education.
"Developments Complimentary"
"These two developments are
complementary," he said, -for
police power alone cannot preserve world peace any more
than liberal education alone can
preserve world peace. All police power can do is create Conditions of stability in which men
with a humane outlook have an
opportunity to create a social
order dedicated to progress."
Noting that he spoke at the
first military commencement in
the history of Haverford College,
General Dalton stated Ma conviction that American military
men and Quakers have much in
common. "Both groups are
deeply mteresteil in preserving
peace and both groups are traditionally interested in education,- he declared.
National Armies Necessary
"It is appropriate in this year
of the William Penn TercentenIon'," Dalton said, "that Penn
in 1093 argued persuasively for
a League of European Nations
with power to apply military
sanctions 'united as one strength'
against an aggressor nation.
Aa William Penn foresaw, said
General Dalton. "it will always
be necessary for each sovereign
state to maintain an Army. In
our country it should ha both a
broadly educated and a highly
specialited army."

night on the latter's home

After the home team spotted
the Fords an 8-0 lead it settled
down to the teak of playing a

points in a row to take the
lead. From this point, the lead
see-sawed throughout the half
