CITIZENS OF THE WORLD
AIM OF LEAGUE OF NATIONS PEOPLE FAIL TO REALISE WAR. PROGRESS DISAPPOINTINGLY SLOW. By Telegraph.—Press Association. Wanganui, Last Night. Delegates numbering 23, representing branches all over the Dominion, attended the annual conference of the New Zealand League of Nations Union opened at .Wanganui to-day. In moving the adoption of the annual report the president, Dr. Fisher, Otago University, said progress had been di .appointingly slow. On account of so many people not being prepared to face what was meant, by a repetition of war, world peace would be a lengthy process. Speaking at a public meeting in the evening Mr. T. Todd, Gisborne, declared that if the league were to fail man would go back to conditions existing before the Norman conquest. In an address on 'Peace or War: Does it matter to you ” Professor Fisher said a world outlook was necessary, not being good Englishmen, good Germans or Frenchmen as the case might be, but good citizens of the world.
