EDUCATION AND WAR
Sir,-After listening to the discussion from 2YA "Can Education Prevent Wars" I feel that none of the participants expressed what is, in my opinion, the most important aspect of the problem. Education, as it applies to the average boy or girl in New Zealand to-day, aims to give him or her a wide understanding of the other peoples and countries of the world, their history, -and their environment. It seems to me that as more people are given opportunities to learn. the truth about the rest of the world, and so understand their neighbours, there will be more tolerance between nations and therefore less chance of further war.
