PLAN IS PROPOSED TO
TAKE PROFIT OUT OP WAR
Free from the flimsy fallac
ies, of the unthinking pacifist,
the following resolution, striking
directly at one of the basic inf
luences, which is an ever pres
ent menace to world peace was
introduced by Alex Dentman, at
the luncheon of the Kiwanis Club
September 2bth, and was unan
imously passed by the club at
the regular noon luncheon, last
Monday.
Whereas: According to sec
tion 1, article 11 of the Kiwanis
Club By Laws, the objects of the
Kiwanis Club are:
'‘Sec. 1. The objects of this
club shall be: To give primacy to
the human and spiritual, rather
than to the material values of
life.
To encourage the daily living
of tlie Goiben Rule in all human
relationships.
To p/omote the adoption and
the apheation of higher social,
busin ss and professional stand
arils.
To develop, by precept and
example a more intelligent, agg
| ressive and serviceable eitizen
! shin.
To provide, through this club
a practical means to form endur
ing friendships, to render altru
istic services and to build a
better community.
To co operate in creating and
maintaining that sound public
opinion and high idealism which
make possible the increase of
righteousness, justice, patriotism
and god will.
And Whereas: War with all
its attending results is diametri
cully oposed to all of these obj
ects.
And Whereas: It is common
knowledge that during all wars
(the last one included) tremend
ous profits have resulted, to cer
tain individuals and corporations.
And Whereas: These war
profits were m nowise disturbed
by war taxation and have rem
a.ned intact thereby placing a
premium upon war profiteering
and consequently upon the act
ivities of unscrupulous persons
who may be in position of trus^
io jeopardize the peace of the
nation or the world.
