...World disarmament must take place immediately," declared Oswald Garrison Villard '93, editor of the Nation and a former president of the CRIMSON, in a recent interview." A delegation headed by Alanson B. Houghton '86, former ambassador to Great Britain, and Nicholas Murray Butler, president of Columbia University, should be appointed immediately to go to Geneva and demand that the world disarm. If this is not done at once, the Allies will not be living up to their word that they would disarm to the level of Germany as soon as possible...

They were proud that Brearley had schooled such distinguished personages as Dean Virginia Gildersleeve of Barnard, Mrs. Charles Carey Rumsey, Sculptress Malvina Hoffman, Actresses Michael Strange and Hope Williams, Mrs. Harry Payne Whitney...
Such an act is clearly Fascist. Its loudest champions have been Britain's No. 1 Blackshirt Sir Oswald Ernald Mosley, Tory Die-Hard Winston Churchill and the Commissioner of London's Metropolitan Police, leather-lunged Lord "Boom" Trenchard. Against the Act gentle Quakers have industriously murmured. Socialist penfolk like H. G. Wells accuse His Majesty's Government of either having the jitters or consciously preparing...
