  • Abstract
    The strength and stability of any plan for world peace must be drawn from the states composing it and these states, in turn, reflect the thinking of their people as expressed through public opinion. Thus, the engineer and scientist, as members of a profession with its attendant responsibilities to the public, must be prepared to contribute their share to the formation of the enlightened world opinion that is essential for the development of understanding between nations.
