NEW HAMPSHIRE PEACE SOCIETY
March 1912

The New Hampshire Peace Society was recently organized at Manchester and several members of the Dartmouth faculty appear among its officers. President Nichols was chosen president of the society and on the advisory council appear the names of President Emeritus Tucker, Professor John K. Lord, Professor James F. Colby and Professor Craven Laycock. The secretary of the society is Sherman E. Burroughs '94. Professor Lord was one of the speakers at a largely attended public meeting. His subject was "The Basis of Security for International Arbitration and Judicial Settlement."

The formation of the New Hampshire Peace Society comes as a result of the interest of members of the Massachusetts Peace Society and a similar organization has within a few days been formed in Maine. All of these state societies have affiliations with the American Peace Society and work in harmony, with the World Peace Foundation established by the gift of one million dollars from Mr. Edwin Ginn.
