Anti-war Propaganda at the University of Virginia [manuscript], 1937

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/398103688

The collection contains a flier from the University Peace Council recognizing the "dangerous extension of militarism" in the United States, requests all University organizations to recognize the validity of an April 1937 national anti-war demonstration and urges membership in the Council. A press release, June 1937, announces a forum on world peace under the auspices of the 11th Institute of Public Affairs. Clipped articles discuss Senator Gerald P. Nye's talk at the University in which he charged that J. P. Morgan and the duPonts drove the U.S. into World War I and recommended mandatory neutrality legislation.
