MYERS Maya Telia Story Of Toronto Viait (Continued from first page) est In morale, and morale depends upon unity of spirit and purpose. "The nations still know far too little of each other," Mr. Warren declared. Each moves almost independently? each has ambition, hopes and fears and so we achieve the acute nationalities which have been our ruin. Rotary cannot make prolific pacts and it would be unwise to attempt such, but Rotary can go and prepare the way. Rotary is of the peoples and operates among the peoples. We have now the opportunity and we will not fall. Where we have reigned before, we will reign again." On Thursday, Rotarians were extended personal greetings from General Douglas MacArthur's headquarters, somewhere In Australia, by short wave broadcast by one of General MacArthur's aides; a past Rotary International director, Lieutenant-Colonel Carlos Romulo. "Toronto hospitality was superb," said Mr. Mays. "This, I think, was due to a great extent to the untiring efforts of the host clubhand to every street car driver, every policeman? in fact, with all with whom we came in contact who did their darndest to take care of the Rotarians." Senor Ferendo Carbajul, of Lima, Peru, was elected president for 19431949.
