This Day That Age
Only co-existence of nations and States with different systems can save mankind from the catastrophe of a new world war, said the Yugoslav President, Marshal Tito, addressing members of both Houses of Parliament in New Delhi on December 21. The four evils of the present day, according to Marshal Tito, were the absence of equality in the relationship among States and nations, interference in the internal affairs of another country, interference which usually comes from the large and more-highly developed countries, the division of the world into spheres and blocs, and finally, colonialism. Until all these evils had been eliminated, there could be no hope for mankind. The formation of blocs along military and ideological lines was fraught with the gravest peril for the peace of the world. Such blocs were intended "to achieve superiority in military strength and potential, for the purpose of setting outstanding international issues by force rather than by peaceful diplomatic methods or, the most logical of all, through the United Nations which was established for this end." Marshal Tito devoted a considerable time of his speech to giving the historical background of his country so as to enable his listeners to appreciate the present system of administration, political and economic, in Yugoslavia. Welcoming Marshal Tito, the Vice-President, Dr. S. Radhakrishnan, said the present age was characterised by three ideas, namely, a craving for political freedom, social reconstruction and international peace.
