[New York, 1940. Very good.. Seven pamphlets, plus two duplicates. Some staples, with minor oxidation. Otherwise minor wear and dustsoiling; a few scattered patched of browning. A group of eight uncommon pamphlets issued by the Committee on Militarism Education to disseminate their arguments against military training in schools. The group was established in 1925 by three pacifist ministers, the Quaker E. Raymond Wilson, the Episcopalian John Nevin Sayre, and the Presbyterian Norman Thomas to campaign against compulsory military training at universities and all military programs for children. The organization remained in operation until 1940. The works present here are focused on ROTC programs and compulsory training; titles are as follows:

1) The People Say "No!"
2) The War Department and Compulsory Military Training
3) The Morrill Act and Compulsory Military Training
4) 17 Significant Victories Against Militarism in American Education...
5) Read What a Civilian, a Minister, a Doctor, and a College President Say About...Military Training of Young Men
6) The Junior R.O.T.C. Rebuffed (two copies)
7) The Cure for Compulsory Drill (two copies)
8) Substitute Modern Courses for Out-of-Date Military Training in Civil Schools and Colleges!
