With the Board of Rotrents, alumni association, Nebraska congressmen, and friends of the univer sity awaiting only the approval of the union plan by the student body to bend every effort toward securing it, it is no less than tragic that an un intelligent and apathetic minority should block the path. Th2 Nebraskan does not hope to sway huge numbers to the union cause but in writing finis to this year's efforts, submits the cold facts of the proposal once more for consideration by those stu dents who may yet be undecided. 1. The building would be a student union Id every seme of the word. It would be for all stu dents without discrimination and each one would enjoy equal rights to Its use. No special privilege in any way would be tolerated. 2. It would give every student an opportunity to meet his fellow undergraduates, forrr friendship, engage In tome activity If he so desires, and become a real and active part o.' the student body. i. The compulsory fee which apparently Is the bone of contention would In no case exceed $3. The. probability Is that It will be much less, especially following liberalization of PWA grant terms. A fee of $1.50 per semester may easily cover the neces sary expense. 4. The fee would not be charged until construe tion of the building is assured. Students would not have to pay for something they had not the oppor unity to enjoy. 5. Certain savings such as could be achieved through a union bookstore would go far in reducing the actual extra amount students would be paying. 6. It would unite the student body, give It co hesion and strength, and tend forth each year a strong and powerful alumni group to build for a better and stronger University of Nebraska. It is with regret that the Nebraskan ceases ill labors with the union cause still in doubt. As has previously been stated, the issue lies squarely in the hands of the student body. If they want it, most certainly it will become a reality. If they do not it. doom is scaled. The Nebraskan chooses to believe that intelligent Nebraska students do want the,, union building. It is with a fervent prayer and a final appeal to this element of the student body to rally behind the union proposal and push it over the top that the curtain is d"iv.- on this year's program.

Browsing Among Tht Books (In the absence of Maurice Johnson, who regu larly conducts this column, it Is written by Miss Eglantine Wermnest of the biology department.) t HAVE just finished reading "The Hills of De light," by Kathleen Crock Edwards, and I am still thrilled by the warmth of its timely message. Although it 's probably not so great and immortal a book, as Revorend Douglas' "Magnificent Obses eJm." Mrs. Edwai ls' splendid new novel has much of the moving sou. inspiration we all enjoyed so much in Reverend Douglas' classic. "The Hills of Delight" is very worthwhile and appealing, and Mrs. Edwards teaches really true Christian doctrine on every blessed page. "The Hills of Delight" rings true. There is none of that aw ful talk about blood and immoral love and things In Kathleen Crock Edwards' book, I can tell you. It is a moving story of faith that any woman would be proud to review before her church friends and shi wouldn't have to leave out passages, either. We are all familiar with Kathleen Crock Ed wards' fine descriptions of nature's glories, and in "The Hills of Delight" she does not disappoint us by omitting any description of the windblown summit upon which Rachel Forbes and her daughter Ethel make their little home. Mrs. Edwards has deep feeling for nature, charm of the woods, the flowers, and all growing things. She is indeed a true artist. Oh, I feel that Mrs. Edwards' characters so beautifully portrayed in "The Hills of Delight" are just as real as my own next-door neighbors. That's just the kind of a book "The Hills of Dciigni- is. l Ut If salno-fl you see. I can't help teuing you again umw ..a true; and it does. Rachel Forbes, the noble rigure .hout whom the tsle is woven, is a courageous woman who sacrifices her all to save an erring soul for etemitv. Rachel is so strong in her faith and has such fine understanding and wisdom that you cannot help just loving her. WHY are there so few wholesome writers like Mrs. Edwards and Bess Streeter Aldrlch, tjo( i-orrnll Anna Snotswook Beets, and r.r. Mnnrn Morton? Even Dorothy Canfield Fisher had to try to be shocking and unpleasant in her book called "Bonfire;" and the things that Pearl S. Buck woman writes about! No wonder the Prcs- hvl.rlnni fnlH VlPr What V.HS What. va rriv. iTiA a hook bv Reverend Douglas or ,ir nam' Kathleen Crock Edwards. Mrs. Edwards shows us the eternally absorbing picture of human in a douMe struMle of spirit in "The Hills of Delight" the inner struggle with their own souls, the outer one with Life and Nature. When .... bniw rouraceous Rachel Forbes we are held by the vividness of her portrait and we find ourselves caring really intensely wnai Decomcs ui her, and we watch the delicate and truthful un folding of her heart. "The Hills of Delight" is like a fresh wind sweeping across the sunlit prairie. They can talk about their Ernest Hemlnghaus, their John Dos Faulkner, their James Joyce, and their Thomas Caldwell, with all their immoral talk. I know what those men write about; I hear what's going on. But if you want a cheery, healthy, sensible story, a novel of true spiritual power, then don't miss Kathleen Crock Edwards' lovely "Hills of Delight." OFFICIAL BULLETIN Student Council.

And she also thinks she got more out of her studies, since there were few interests outside the campus and there weren't as many extra-curricular activities to distract attention. "I think every girl ought to have a chance to go to a girls' school for at least one year," she said. After her graduation she intends to teach physlclal education and to work in summer camps. This summer she is going to a Holiday Camp near Leech Lake, in north ern Minnesota. While there she will serve as head swimming coun cilor for the junior camp, and will have charge of photography in the senior camp. She will be there for about eight weeks. "It makes a wonderful vaca tion," and she ought to know. She has been there eleven times. When camp is over she's going home to sleep and read for a year, for the life of a phys. ed. major is a little exhausting.

WHITE EXPLAINS WORKINGS OF STATE RELIEF ORGANIZATION (Continued from Page 1.) Scottsbluff, Fairbury, Falls City, and Douglas county. All projects are partly finished with families living on sections, but they are all still under construction. "We lease individual trttcts for one year to each family with an individual farm and buildiro'S. If the familv Droves adaptable t the end of the year, they are given opportunity to buy the farmstead on a long term easy plan. The noiiplas rountv acreaee is the largest project planned. It will be equipped to accommoome 100 families with approximately 8 acres to each. Irrigated by wells, the land is suitable to intensive garden farming which is carried on under strict supervision. Due to the extreme drouth in 1934, the director pointed out, that the rehabilitation division has di rertort thp followintr Droexams in addition to the regular rural schedule: 1. Drouth relief for live stock. 2. Cattle processing of cattle purchased tinder the cattle pur chasing program 01 me a. j. 3. Purchasing and distributing of live stock feed. 4. Relief gardens. "In connection with the latter function. 29,000 families are fur nished witli garden seed, and thirty-five large community gardens can be found in the state," While related. The rehabilitation program is of vital concern to the federal gov ernment, emphasized White. Out of one million families on relief in rural areas In the United States, approximately 500,000 are actually resiJing on farms. The great cost of rehabilitating these families will be altogether taken care of if the program works out, but, the state director explained, if the work fails, the loss incurred by the government will be excessive. Selection of families to occupy the farmsteads are limited as far as possible in numbers, from four to seven and in age, from thirty five to fifty. When asked how long he ex pected the relief program to con tinue the state director smiled. "You'll have to ask the president about that."
