Speaker of the evening was E. T.

With the Chinese Communists willing to risk a major war as the United Nations endeavored to seek a reconciliation, the world appeared to be on the-edge of a volcano. There must be no giving away to despair, however. There was no good reason why United Nations efforts to localize the present conflict to Korea should not succeed. Yet, if such was not to be the case, the responsibility most assuredly must be fixed with Peiping and Moscow. With the Soviet Union preponderant in land forces and building up sea power, but weak in the air and atomic weapons evidently willing to wage world war along aggressive lines, it became essential for the west-em world to build up armaments and defence. While this was being done, the danger of world war might be even more Increased within the next few months.
