War Can Be Avoided World Federalist Says

"If we act now, we can prevent a third world war," Thomas H. Mahoney, co-chairman of the Massachusetts branch of the United World Federalists, said last night at the year's first meeting of the Harvard World Federalists.

Mahoney stressed limited world government as the only way out of the present "desperate situation." It is necessary to work through the existing structure of the UN. Mahoney said, to build a world government with powers to act through a world constitution.

Leading atomic scientists give the Russians three years to match the U.S.'s supply of atom bombs, Mahoney pointed out. People must therefore achieve some strong basis for settling world disputes immediately, he said.
