Revenge And Repression Are Onl
By 1.ARRV BRAVNON
Only through a constructive designed to restore to the post-wa- r
German people "security, stability,
mid a meaning in life," can the
tli4ocratic world be assured of future peace. Dr. I. T. Sanders,
of sociology, said this week
ui a special Kernel interview.
Ideas of revenge and undue

PIIVSICALLV IMPOSSIBLE
When asked what he thought of a
proposal made recently by Dr. Earnest A Hooton, Harvard anthropolo-gt-t- .
to drive from Germany the
dreed that tends only to militarism."
and to effect the subsequent dispersal throughout the world of . . .
the German people." Dr. Sanders
said the task, besides being physically impossible, would contribute
nothing to peace in the future.

In refuting the Harvard professor's assertions, which he described
as "chaacteristiclly" controversial,
Or. Sanders pointed out:
A Rr.Fl'TATION
Proposals favoring creation of a
"synthetic race of Germans and the
distribution of the German race
throughout the world for assimilation Into other cultures" are absurd
in their implicatous. Such a disper-fcii- l

Since it Is true that a superior
culture lecicis alw&y; to overcooie

and assimilate any inferior culture
with which it comes into contact,
the dispersal of German colonies
throughout less advanced civilizations of the world (where most of
them would have to be located)
would undoubtedly pave the way
for the propagation of German culture on a scale beyond anything the
Nazis themselves have conceived.
2lThe "fanatical" behavior so
strongly condemned in the Germans has accompanied the growth
in Germany of unsettled social and
conditions
conditions
economic
which have arisen independent of
any known racal traits of characteristics. Tlie United States itself has
known periods of similarly unsettled conditions when its own national behavior has bordered on
what might be termed "fanatical"
proportions.
3 Militarism arlfl nationalism are
likewise cultural, rather than racial,
considerations
and must be treated
as such.
THE TASK AHEAD
The task ahead. Dr. Sanders continued, is to effect such an extensive
change in the social patterns and
ideology of the German people that
the conditions of unrest and dissatisfaction which contribute to aggressiveness will be entirely eliminated.
No racial segregation, he said could
accomplish this.
Without minimizing the importmiliance of stringent
tary and political control of the sul
jugated country. Dr. Sanders said
that anv great alteration of such social patterns would involve a broad
program among the
educational
cjeruittu people.
