ern civilization; other societies were 
regarded as civilized only to the de- 
gree that their systems or institutions 
approximated the Western pattern. In 
other words, the world was divided 
into civilized peoples and what were 
called “lesser breeds.” We have come 
a long way from that kind of think- 
ing — so long, in fact, that it is hard 
to believe that such prejudice pre- 
vailed until only a few decades ago. 
One of the basic principles of the 
Charter of the United Nations is that 
of the sovereign equality of all mem- 
bers of the organization. This is not 
just an abstract principle; it is an op- 
erative fact governing the actual work- 
ing of the different organs of the 
United Nations. What lies behind it 
is nothing short of a revolution in at- 
titudes, political as well as cultural. 
Decolonization, the greatest develop- 
ment of our century, is a product of 
this revolution. The more we absorb 
all the implications of this change, 
the better will international under- 
standing and cooperation grow and the 
greater will be our capacity to manage 
our problems. 
This is not the occasion for me to 
talk about the world’s problems. We 
all know that some of these problems

The Past Researched 
The January Members’ Program, 
The Grand Canyon, ties in with the 
Museum’s current special exhibition, 
Profiles of the Past. Sidney Horen- 
stein, curator of the exhibition, will 
use slides and film to discuss the nat- 
ural history of the Grand Canyon, 
from its geologic past to the plants 
and animals that inhabit its rugged 
terrain today. The program will take 
place on Wednesday, January 21, at 
7:30 p.m. in the Auditorium and is 
free for members; $3.50 for the gen- 
eral public. 
are currently causing us a great deal 
of anxiety. I do not underestimate 
their gravity. Undoubtedly, we are 
passing through a very difficult phase 
of international relations. Our imme- 
diate problems relating to peace and 
security are, of course, a different mat- 
ter; but as far as our long-range prob- 
lems are concerned, there is a certain 
positive element in the very fact of 
their being listed on the world’s 
agenda. 
Their nature bears an essential re- 
lation to the understanding of the 
world and of peace that the United 
Nations has worked to promote. Take 
the problems of reducing poverty and 
ignorance in the world. We are ad- 
dressing our attention to them because 
we consider peace to mean something 
larger and regard the world as more 
unified than people did before the 
United Nations was founded. If we 
did not believe — as we do — that peace 
is not stable unless it assures justice 
and secures progress for all, if we did 
not regard — as we do — our world as 
interdependent and therefore indivis- 
ible, we would not be concerned as 
much as we are, for example, by the 
delay in instituting a new international 
economic order. This does not mean 
Man and Nature

Stand in Eden.

ence through hands-on activities with

plication form.
