Is Arbitrator A colonel in World War I, Che valier is now it'senior vice-president of tho McGraw-Hill Publishing Co. of New York. A year ago !i|n a talk at the Kiwanis Club he Nakl that “wo have got to take over as the arbitrator of world peace. "From 1815 to 1914 England was the arbitrator of the peace of the world. We developed during the peace. England today is no longer able to maintain that peace. We must be willing to foot the bill of our foreign policy.” He said that the Russian prob lem is a three-fold one. First, it is the technique employed by the to talitarian state that disturbs the United States. Secondly, it has its impact on the Russian people. There is the technique of infil tration, of using the minorities in other nations to undermine the national well being. “Third, it is the matter of Rus- siah imperialistic policy. As long as I have been reading history it has been the policy of Russia to expand toward the warm waters of the Mediterranean,” he said.
