Peace On Earth, Goodwill
To Men !
The Christmas spirit has left the world this
The world is full of too much hate, and fear,
:and need to leave much room for love.
• There are too many people who think they are
right and not enough people who think they are
wv tong.
We still remember the ChristmaS spirit,
We should like to be in love with all the world,
I)ut in it there are people and ideas that we have
.}earned to hate too well.
• We should like to feed the starving people of
'conquered Belgium and France, but we will sacri
fice them sooner than help the might we hate.
•• We should like to see peace returned to the
t •
yorld by next Christmas, but only if it means our
bay of life and our friends have prevailed.
• There is no peace.
• Merry Christmas,
Parade Of Opinion
(By Associated Collegiate Press)
Can the battling Greeks, ::..cemingly repulsing
The Fascist "invaders" at every point, possibly
I;cep their standard aloft in the weeks to come?
America's youth, as reflected in the collegiate
.4)cess, is watching the Greek-Italian conflict close
)y. And undergraduate editorialists are voicing
'quiet hope and, many words of caution in their dis-
.cussions
"The effect of the Greek resistance on the mor
'ale of both the democracies and the totalitarian
countries will probably be inestimable,' says the
Wisconsin Daily Cardinal. "It will certainly
Learten the British and the Tree Frenchmen' as
ell as the subversive groups within the bound
. cries of Germany and Italy. It means a tremen
eons loss of prestige to Italy and to Mussolini, who
apparently thought he could march down to the
yeleponnese with no more trouble than he encoun
;icred in Albania. To the German people it dem
'onstrates that the might of the bully nations isn't
•
:invincible. The Achaeans of 1940—the lineal de
cendants of the defenders of Thermopylae, of
;Marathon, of Salamis, may once again save the
Pt)rest for civilization."
I At Syracuse, the Daily Orange declares that
I"with Britain's recent material admissiorr of ex
liended aid to struggling Greece, the world won
iciers no longer about the validity 'of John Bull's
?romise of assistance to the staunch Balkan coun
pry's resistance to the yet unproved legions of
:.111ussolini. With the failure of the Fascist military
Ixoachine to crush the comparatively weak Greek
.sorces, it is no wonder that the latter country is
being termed the 'Finland of the Balkans: Even
tually the Italians will probably subdue the
Greeks, but the surprising opposition that they are
encountering has amazed the world."
That the expected Greek collapse isn't likely to
• ; materialize, at least for the present is the belief of
ithe Cornell Daily Sun. ss "Like the Finns, who last a
winter gave Russia tussle, the Greeks ,are trad-
Ong blow for blow with their Fascist invaders, and
;giving a good account of themselves," observes the
.liun. "Still, we have learned not to expect too
lorauch from these little countries when pitted
{against the Axis blitzkrieg machine.' Even allow
/ .
» - ,g that the Greeks are fighting the weaker part
•of 'World Wreckers, Inc.,' still Adolph looms in
;the background, and if things get bad for his bully
}comrade, he will no doubt plunge in to make sure
(the fight is fair."
