In the Interest
Of Peace.
UNIVERSITY students should regard interna
tional affairs in a realistic light. They should,
in addition, promote International organizations as
a step toward permanent peace, according to lead
ers of the International Relations club conference
held recently in Iowa.
This is not unusual. For some time well mean
ing pacifists have propounded this doctrine as a
big step toward international organization and
eventual world peace. During the gay twenties,
undergraduate life on American campuses paid lit
tle attention or thought to international issues. Few
ttudents, during that era, openly expressed a pro
found belief in international relations.
If we believe in siffns of the times, however,
it is safe to say that university students are de
voting more attention to world problems. Indeed
if we take into account the numerous peace organi
sations and international relations clubs which have
teen fostered by the advent of the depression on
this and other campuses, the trend is unmistakable.
Thre is further evidence to promote a belief that
this movement will continue, regardless of efforts
in the opposite direction by William Randolph
Hearst, and other "patriots."
TJLAG waving demonstrations against war, it must
be noted, are extremely futile. Their sponsors
Ehould realize that they will no longer be able to
establish world peace by circulating peace peti
tions. They should realize, in addition, that an
other world war is more than a theoretical con
test which will eventually blacken the face of the
earth. It is an actual reality.
From this point of view, the advice given
ty leaders of the international relations club at
Grinnell last week is far more suitable to pacific
interests, and much more rational to reflective
minds.
The problem of peaceful international relations
is a realistic one. As such, pacifisms ehould offer
a realistic program. In substance, this character
izes the plan offered by Carl Eichelberger, former
editor of the League of Nations Chronicle, last
week. Essentially the program revolved about the
United States' entrance into the League of Nations.
Unfortunately, the League of Nations brings
to the average American mind innumerable vague
and distasteful associations. The present college
generation may well lock back upon events of 19 J 9
free from the nationalism and traditional Amer
ican prejudices t'jat prevented this country from
8;jpportic- ibe one international organ for world
piace. Well might th"y do this, for if the present
foreign policy of this country is carried to Its logi
cal conclusions, our membership in the league
should become a reality.
IT IS for this reason, then, that we have corn-
mented for some lpngth upon the intelligent pro
gram being promoted by the International Rela
tions clubs. It Is neither a Utopia nor unwork
able method of fostering greater student Interest
In peaceful world relations. It must be pointed out,
too. that this program Is an improvement over the
petition panfling, anti-drill tactics which so often
characterize many well-meaning but pointless un
dergraduate pence movements.
The youth of today, and necessarily so, will
hear the brunt of the next world conflict In this
respect they should take an active and intelligent
part in promoting international organization of gov
ernmcnt. It seems evident that they must cast
aside blase indifference toward world Issues.
Students Run
Their Ou n Hoop.
TlHILE the brain trusters in the Roosevelt ad-
ministration are being charged with fostering
communism and planning to establish a dictator
ship, all for a reward of five Russian roubles and
a bowl of cabbage soup apiece, a new slant on
college professors In politics was revealed recently
In Tulsa, Okl.
Col. O. W. Hoop, professor of political economy
at the University of Tulsa told his students that
it was impossible for any but machine-backed poli
ticians to win a public offlre. To prove his theory
the venerable pedagogue filed for city police com
rnissioner. When be announced himself as a candi
date, he explained that it waa merely a laboratory
experiment to prove to his classes that "no one
but a politician with an organized machine can be
elected to public office."
But the students took exception to the pro
fessor's theory and started a campaign for bia elec
tion. Hoop was elected by a three to one majority.
But more eurprUing he absolutely refused to kiss
babies, make campaign promises he could not ful
fill, and make after dinner speeches over two min
utes long.
Professor Hoop probably struck a new note in
this country's political life. Maybe this means that
successful candidates for public office will be frank
individuals, saying all that la necessary wtthout
mentioning "the stars and stripes," the "little red
school house," and the "old log cabin" at least a
dozen times during the course of a campaign
speech. In addition, if Colonel Hoop's experience
is proof, the politician of the future will be far
different from the bellowing bombastic boss of
recent years.
But most surprising, he refused to take the
whole thing seriously. This last, we fed, makes
Professor Hoop a statesman which is some im
provement over an ordinary politician.

Contemporary Comment
Russian Roubles
For the Brain Trusters.
The Indiana school superintendent's letter at
tacking the policies and procedure of the Wash
ington "brain trust" comes as a very annoying
bombshell amidst an optimistic co-operation of ef
forts towards recovery. Not only does the epistle
contain the usual negative criticisms of denying
any efficacy in the method of calling advisors to
the capital, but it goes to an extreme attack in
branding the "brain trusters" with all types of
malpractices. It includes, for example, this state
ment: "We believe that we can keep Mr. Rcosevelt
there until we are ready to supplant him with a
Stalin. We all think that Mr. Roosevelt is only
the Kenersky of this revolution."
This accusation will create an unfortunate im
pression of recovery government in the minds of
the public. It may easily be believed that the men
who control the mechanical operations of this social
order are secretly gathering together behind locked
doors, and fiendishly plotting the overthrow of all
existing conventions; that a spider-like net of in
trigue is being cast over Washington; that plans
are being carefully laid so that at an early date a
button may be pushed starting the function of a
machine that will assasinate the president, gas con
gress, ham-string the senators, and carry a new
dictator down Pennsylvania ave. A scourge of
Machiavellis seems to have descended on the White
House.
When the evident causes for this outburst are
remembered, however, its seriousness can be easily
discounted. The "brain trust" is composd of men
who have specialized in the fields on which they
are consulted, and they ate best able to take care
of the problems which are set before them. But
as in every case, their decisions are but opinions,
and there are bound to be conflicting ideas, each
of perfect validity.

COMMENT ON COUNTRY LIFE.
rpHE SUBJECT to be discussed on Ag college
campus Saturday is one so familiar to most
of the students who will be there, that many doubt
less wonder what can be said with any flavor of
newness. That subject is County Life. Saturday
is the day of the Nebraska Country Life conference.
Ag college is host to the party.
The persons who will hear the discussions are
generally familiar with country life, for they mostly
come from Nebraska farms. They are students
in the colleges at Crete, Peru. Fremont, Univer
sity Place and in the University of Nebraska. They
have lived on farms, most of them, and plowed
corn, fed bucket calves, stacked hay, hu.sked corn,
and spent long winter evenings reading between
mouthfuls of pop corn or homemade cardy. What
can they be told about country life ?
The persons who will do the discussing Satur
day also know country life most of them probably
know it in the same personal way that those who
will be listeners do. But they also know it in a
larger, more professional, more objective way. It
will be, perhaps, that more objective way. It
try life the kind tf a look one gets by stand
ing a long ways off on top of a high hill where
the whole, vast rural scene can be seeu at once
and contemplated in its entirlty that will be new
to many of the listeners at the conference.
Take, for instance, Dr. E. L. Kirkpatrick from
Wisconsin. His discussion in the afternoon pro
gram is to be about "A Wr-ll-roundH Rural Pro
gram." That is an attempt to look at the whole
rural scene at once, and according to Prof. H. C.
Filley, Dr. Kirkpatrick ran come ns near doing that
job as any rural sociologist In America.
Then Dean Burr's discussion on the present
agricultural situation will probably look at the sit
uation in a general way. And what Mr. Brokaw
has to say about the things being done to remedy
the present situation, and what Professor Filley
says about a long time program for agriculture will
probably be geenral and economic in content.
AFTERNOON PROGRAM PARTICULARS.
The program in the afternoon will tend more
to pick the agricultural scene to pieces and look
at It one particular part at a time. Art Peterson
Is going to take enough time off from Farmers'
Fair work to talk a bit about "Good Reading on
the Farm."
Two points of view one thinks of at once that
Art might take toward his flubjc( t. One would be
the right kind of things for farm people to read.
And the other would be that the farm, on a zero
night, by a good fire, after a good supper, when
all the work outside la done and It's still hours and
hours 'till morning, is a darn good place to read
anything.
Professor Wiggana will discuss another par
ticular sagment of the farm scene beautifying the
grounds. Mrs. Ray Kellcnbarger, Anselmo farm
woman, is going to talk about one of the really
important things on a farm children. And Mrs.
S. P. Davis, who also lives in the country, is going
to talk about fie advantages of farm life. The
rural church will come in for its share of the dis
cussion, and so will the rural school.
The party Saturday, like any good country
party, will not be all talk. There will be a couple
of hours of games in the afternoon and In the eve
ning a big feed. And In that there will be one
other thing that is new the particular experience.
All experience Is new experience. At this particular
dinner there will be students from Doane, students
from Peru, student from Wesleyan, students from
sociology and economics classes down town, and
a large number of the students from Ag college.
That particular combination of people and In
terests gathered together will oe new. And that
particular menu will be new. And perhaps Just
perhaps some of the stories that Dean Burr tells
aa master of ceremonies will be sew.
SELECT INNOCENTS
NOMINEES TUESDAY
(Continued from Page 1.)
committee of five, the personnel of
which has not yet been announced,
will supervise the balloting and
count the votes.
As soon as the committee has
counted the votes and checked the
eligibility of nominees, it will an
nounce the twenty-five junior men
who have received the highest
number of votes. Next year's Inno
cents society will be picked from
those twenty-five men chosen by
the students.
Provide for Appeal.
Another phase of the new plan
involves the hearing of appeals by
the faculty committee of five. If
there is a general sentiment that
political or other influences have
resulted in the omission of a de
serving student from the list of
the first twenty-five, the commit
tee will hear appeals and decide
the question. The committee will
also hear appeals on students elim
inated by scholastic or other regu
lations. "The Innocents society is heart
ily in favor of the new plan as
drawn up and is seeking a strong
vote on eligible men next Tues
day," Byron Goulding, president,
stated yesterday. "Every effort
will be made to get a record vote
in order to determine as nearly as
possible the best men for the so
ciety for the coming year."
Announcement of the members
of the faculty committee which
will supervise and count the re
sults of the election and consider
appeals from the voting will prob
ably be made In Sunday's Ne
braskan, Woodrow Magee, member
of the Innocents, stated yesterday.
One timer caught Glenn Cun
ningham of Kansas at 2:11 flat,
two more at 2:11.1, and a fourtn
at 2:11.2 when the great Kansas
runner broke the world's record
for 1,000 yards at the Oklahoma
Amateur meet at Norman Satur

quarter in 07 seconds and his first
half-mile in 1 minute 56 seconds.
