"Peace for All Peoples," Urged Othirwist Prcstnt War Is a Waste Not merely a victor's peace, but "a peace for all the peoples of the world" must be built or this war Is a waste, Dr. Nels A.

Bengtson, dean of the University of Nebraska junior division and chairman of the geographic department, declared Friday evening in an address to the general meeting of the Chamber of Commerce in the Hotel Chieftain. Dr. Bengtson painted a dark picture of the deep-seated beliefs which have brought the Germans and the Japanese, as well as the rest of the world, to their present plight, but was hopeful for the eventualities of the future. "To win the present war Is the first step," he declared, "but to achieve enduring peace in Europe will necessitate the re-education of the German intellgentlsla, to lead German away from the idea of a world-state, and to give up their belief In an unmoral state. This re-education promises to be a slow and difficult task." He enlarged upon the philosophic changes which have grown upon the German people in the last century and a half, beginning with a widely accepted German theorist, Hegel, who held that moral principles do not apply to the state in Its dealings with its own citizens or with other states.

This political theory, coupled with the vision of a world state controlled by Germans, were powerful in producing both the first and the present world wars as natural outgrowths of the thinking of German industrialists, political philosophers and political geographers, he declared.

Last Escape Route of Nazi Troops in Central Italy Neared (Continued from Page 1.) fantry division from the Adriatic sector into the line against the 6th army forces, including the French, which are advancing northward toward Coprano. But these reinforcements were beaten back and the allies captured both San Giovanni and Pastena, both a i defended strong points. Boring steadily into enemy defenses further west, the French seized Monte Rotondo and Monle Quattodorcl, and Friday reached the outskirts of Amasemo, eight miles west of Pastena.

An allied official spokesman declared "a trenmendous amount ot motor movement" was observed further southwest, where other 5th army troops crossed the Asemo river and took the village of Castella Valentino. All Brought Up. "All the German division in the line and in reserve at the start of the offensive now have been drawn Into the main battle area, Including two from the Adriatic flank," this official said. All along the right flank of the 5th army, near its junction with the 8th army, resistance weakened gradually. This presumably resulted from the German command finally acknowledging futility of attempting to hold on any longer in that area, and deciding to try pulling big forces out of danger of being cut off and enveloped by the Americans' deap penetration In front of the Valmontone line.

Germans gave ground reluctantly as the 5th army widened the breach in their defenses north and northwest of Cisterna and fought ever deeper into the salient pointed at highway 6.
