VOTE FOR THE GENERAL EFFECT
One deplorable fact about popular
elections is that many people vote
according to their objection to some
specific detail, rather than according
to their Idea of the general effect of
a measure. To be specific, if one
does not like some pardon issued by
the governor, he is inclined to vote
against that person for re-election on
those grounds, Instead of considering
the general effect of the administra
tion. Such a tendency has kept many
a good governor of Nebraska from
serving a second term.
The same thing is true of a matter
like the Single Tax. The people look
for objections to specific details rath
er than consider the general effect
of the "Idea. - This was true of the
argument In yesterday's Forum. In
its last analysis, the objection to the
Tax was on two grounds that we
cannot accomodate the crowds for a
basketball game, and that the money
to the Dramatic department was not
accurately apportioned. Some may
discard the fact that the Tax will as
a whole benefit the school, and work
against it on the ground that it has
a defect here and there in tis make
up. In casting your Inffuence one way
or the other, therefore, try to con
sider the effect of the system as a
whole. Remember that it will permit
the growth of student life commen
surate with that of the Institution.
That there is room for improvement
is entirely possible. But help to
adopt the measure first, and then
submit your amendments and im
provements to the proper authorities
afterwards.
THIS YEAR'S UNIVERSITY WEEK
It is to be regretted that this year's
management of University Week
could not secure a different group of
towns from those now on the list.
This is not to interpreted as against
the towns as such. They are con
ceded to be among the real live com
munities of the state.
But the primary idea of University
Week is to acquaint the people of
the state with the university not to
furnish them with a program. It
naturally follows that this purpose
cannot be accomplished by visiting
the same localities several years in
succession. In this year's group, out
of four sure contracts, two are from
towns on last year's list. This ar
gues something wrong. It may not
be the fault of the management, but
wherever the blame lies, It Is to be
hoped that It will not occur again.
. . i
evil. Under the Single Tax an wouia
be provided for, and ticket scalping
would be impossible. Remember these
things when the petition is submitted
in vnu for vour signature.
T..iianaiiv thA rommittee will
no doubt begin work on University
Nieht earlier next year. If all the
acts , were submitted a month before
the performance, and practice begun
on them Immediately, a better pro
gram would be assured
OUR FRONT PAGE DEFINI
TION OF THE SINGLE TAX
On the front page of this issue
another explanation of the Single Tax
To many this is, no doubt, superflu
ous. But each day someone inquires
of some member of the staff, "What
is the Single Tax, anyway?" Hence
the present and further definitions.
