"So f4r aa I can see there la no

arts and sciences, in rtvlnjt his
opinion yesterday of th editorial

entitled "Cross Pull."
lr. Hirki continued: "Faculty,
members who have been connected .
with the university for life or for

TOPIC IS 'ENFORCEMENT'
"A law ceases to be a law with
out moral stability," slated Mr. C.
P. Peterson, former city attorney,
in speaking on "Law Enforcement'
at an open meeting of Phi Tau
Theta. Methodist Men's fraternity,
at the Wesley foundation Tuesday
evening.
Mr. Peterson gave an interesting

IHCUIiy. nil, ta vti'iiviitft hm
interested In the same fundament
al things. Cooperation, not anta
gonism, between faculty and .stu
dent bodies will enable these two
groups to work shoulder to Fhould
er for the university's lxt inter
ests. "As for school spirit it is no
lehS valuable In professor than in
student. That embodiment of pride
peiil.xrH'nt back of a law may kill a
law. and another example of how
a l.iw may be made effective by
public opinion, even though there
be no penalty attached to its viola
tion. While the speaker was acting as
city attorney, a man came to him
complaining about the football
sign hung across "O" street, as be
ing a violation of the city ordin-
and loyalty will provide common ;ancc against the use of the public
streets for advertising. Be com
plainant saw no harm to the sign,
but objected to the principle of the

ground between the two groups:
through It they may build up a
wholesome, valuable university
consciousness. Once this is achiev
ed, fitudent government and facul-l
ty supervision will be placed ir
their proper positions."
Trof. G. M. Darlington, of the
college of business administration,
in general agreed with views of
Dan Hicks.
"I have seen little evidence of
cropa pull between faculty mem
bers and students." he stated.
"There Is too much emphasis
placed upon this. I believe the real
cross pull Is between groups within
the student body."
'Less School Spirit."
Mr. Darlington commented fur
ther upon the specific question of
bchool spirit. "It is difficult in a
school of this size for school spirit
to compare with that in a smaller
school," he declared. "Here there
tends to be a spirit of separate
groups. For example ,the law stu
dents and the engineers have long
held an intense regard for their
school groups which overshadows
their interest in the university as
a whole."
Mr. Darlington continued: "The
enthusiasm of school youth is dis
seminated In various groups, and
therefore it is difficult to develop
a real, inclusive school spirit. In
the recent much discussed rally
the exhilaration and spontaneity
of university spirit was noticeably
absent. The rally was a forced af
fair which ganined incentive
through the exhortations of a
small group of men."
Mr. Darlington Denevcs me a
o'clock rule regarding rallies is
very good. Between-class rallies
are difficult to break up and often
destroy the composure of classes
both before and after the rally.
Real school spirit, he avers, may
be evidenced just as well and Just
as effectively at a later time.
! Mr. Vetcrson admitted that the
! breaking of the ordinance was
wrong and said that he was willing
to accompany the complainant all
I over the city and punish all the
law violators against whom com
plaints were issued. Then Mr.
Peterson explained that there was
an ordinance against smoking dg'
ar?ts in a public eating place. All
persons caught smoking itt public
eating places against whom com
plaints were filed would be prose
cuted.
"Oh lord," replied the man. "I
don't want my name on any such
complaint.
Mr. Peterson also gave an ex
ample of how public opinion may
enforce a law even though there is
do statutory penalty for its dis-
obeyancc.
U was during the war. when
many rules were sent out by the
United States government con
cerning the sale and distribution of
food. Mr. Peterson was seated
quietly in his office when in
rushed an irate grocer, angry over
Hoover's latest decree.

"SposinY said the grocer, "I

GERMAN READER
ENTERTAINS AT
TEMPLE THEATER
Mrs. B.;rtel Seller-Bihler. Ger
man reader, gave a program con
sitting of folk songs, classics and
modern poetry in ner native
tongue before an audience of 400
at the Temple theater Monday
night. The program was given
through the courtesy of local soci
eties and personal cunli Ibutlons,
and wa3 sponsored by the German
department of the University of
Nebraska.
Mrs. Seiler-Bihler is making a
tour of the leading universities of
the United States. She will go to
the Pacific coast after a visit to
Chicago. Dr. W. H. Werkmeister
introduced the dramatist.
"One of the ureal problems
which the United StateH faces is
that of aria and semi-arid land."
declared Dr. J Arthur Harris,
chairman of the department of
botany at the University of Minne
sota before the annual joint meet
ing last night of the Nebraska
chapters of Phi Beta Kappa and
Sie ma XI.
Speaking on "In Desert and Rain
Forests." Doctor Harris expressed
aa his opinion that the problem of
dry land barrenness could never be
solved except through the efforts
of laboratory science. He explauled
bneriy the essential factors in-'
volved in this work and touched i
upon some of the contacts which j Vocational
lie nna nmuc personally in ias
Held. I
Experiments Made.
Kxperimcnts have shown, the
botanist declared, that the degree ,
of osmotic concentration which a
plaut possesses determines its
chances for survival and growth.
This concentration can be found
through observation of the freez
ing point of the plant's tissue
fluids, which is ttu method fol
lowed in laboratory work.
The lecture was illustrated with
colored slides showing a variety of
vegetation growing under different
climatic conditions both in the
United States and In the Hawaiian
islands. These views served to il
lustrate points developed within
the address and added considerably
to its interest.
The address was open to the
public as well as to members of the
two honor societies. Approximately
200 persons attended.
Introduced by Benotton.
Introduction of Doctor Harris to
the audience was made by Dr,
Nels Bengtson. chairman of the
department of geography at fhe
University of Nebraska.
Preceding the address the annual
dinner for active and alumni mem
bers and their escorts of the chap
ters of Sigma Xi and Phi Beta
Kappa wert held at the University
club. At this dinner Doctor Harris
was the gucat of honor.
The Minnesota scientist bears a
national reputation In his field of
scientific endeavor and was for
merly botanical investigator at the
station for experimental evolution
with the Carnegie institute. In
1921, he was awarded the Weldon
memorial prize by the University
of Oxford. England.

day. The meeting in the Temple
cafeteria was attended by about
eighty students.
The speaker gave an account of
the difficulties which the colored
race encountered in finding em
ployment. He said that negroes,
who were trained in professions
could not obtain clients even
among the people of their own
race.
Economic Status Enters.
"We are beginning to realize
there is a relation between the so
cial and economic status." Mr.
Porter said. He said that the ne
groes were forced into unskilled
trades. But the negroes are not tbe
only people which are discrimi
nated against, he asserted. Mexi
cans. Jews, Japanese and Chinese
also find difficulty in getting em
ployment, other than the lowest
kind of unskilled labor, according
to the speaker.
He told of the experience of one
of his Chinese friends wbo could
not get a position in a bank al
though he was twenty-three and
held a doctorate degree. The
speaker declared that tbe negroes
were the victims of tbe most dis
crimination. The discrimination is sharpest in
the south, according to Mr. Porter.
He declared that the whites en
deavored to keep tbe negroes out
of Industry entirely or that if they
must admit them, to close all po
sitions available except the jobs
lequiring unskilled labor.
Unions Unfriendly.
He stated that the opening of
many new factories in the south
along with the restriction of immi
gration gave an opening to the ne
groes. Organized labor is un
friendly to tbe negroes, according
to Mr. Porter. He said that hile
they were almitted to membership
in most unions, they were not per
mitted to vote or take any part in
the activities of the organization.
Several examples of the unfair
ness of the labor unions to the ne
groes were cited by the speaker.

want you to know at the atart,"
said Mr. Kidwell to the reporter,
"that I disagree fundamentally
with militarism. Moving served in

war and I am an ardent pacifist.
Tbe moral and physical advan

"Throughout all my years in the
service I have loved army life but
I have always hated war."
Mr. Kidwell enlisted in tbe regu
lar army in January. 1S93. At that
time he was paid nine dollars a
month by the government. Of this
twenty-five cents was taken every
other month for the relief fund.
"Conditions then weren't nearly as
good in tbe army as they are now,"
he said. "There was no butter, no
sugar, and very little fresh meat
and rations."
Wins Promotion.
After several months of service.
Mr. Kidwell was promoted to the
rank of corporal, at San Antonio,
Tex. He fought in the Spanish
American war under General
Wood. In 1S9S he was married. A
few weeks after his marriage, a
summons called . him away from
his bride and sent him to Cuba.
His wife joined him there after tbe
war. While he was in Cuba Mr.
Kidwell received two promotions
in rank. In 1S98 he became a ser
geant. In 18P9 he was raised to
the rank of post-commissary ser
geant.
In 1901 Mr. Kidwell was called
back from Cuba and was stationed
at tbe United States military
academy at West Point. He stayed
at West Point for five years. Then
he was placed in tbe Philippine
islands for two years. He served
at various places until 1914, when
he was sent to Alaska. There be
remained until 1917.
Mr. Kidwell joined tbe ninety
first division at Camp Lewis in
1917 when the division first or
ganized. He soon was promoted
to the office of captain and quar
termaster. He remained with that
division throughout tbe World war.
The division saw active fighting in
Belgium and in France. It was in
Belgium at the time of the armis
tice. While he was in France Mr.
Kidwell received four stars for
service. He was promoted tempo
