Nevertheless, the campus field is always con

the Nebraskan. thouch naturally quile subtly,

inabilitv to recognize merit enoiiuli, to kwp

tlcman. Dr. Joseph K. Coodbar of Bosion. con
tacted university officials as to the possibilities
of doing something- for our benefit.
Reasons Mr. C'oodbar. wnh the Nebras-
Van as ac-tini: interpreter, in present in sr the
administration v.it h the text entitled "Mimas- :
insr the People's Money" - Now as lout: as the
puerile student is going to be stuns i'r some
manner of book anyhow, why not have him use j
mine. Not only will you be erentinir a won- I
derful field which I can use for reference in (
selling my book elsewhere, but at the same ,
time for recognition of aiding me in my com
mercial enterprise, 1 slmll most henefirieiil ly j
grant you all the royalties from ihe selling "i ,
the text to bp used in erect ins: a memorial.
Now if you. as the administration, will stop lo
consider the faei that the royalty on each bonk j
reaches the quite adequate sum of ;fl .."iO for j
each tixt purchased lv the none too intelli
gent or hapless pupil, it can easily be per
ceived that the memorial can rapidly become
a reality. All I desire is your- co-operation.
The Nebraskan is dad to l-arn that it is
all Dr. t.omll.'.r desires. Madly would ihe
Nebraskan promulgate a campaign for the
mlopt ion ! the booi; within the eeonom !-s de
p.'iri meiit lie'- uf course. 11 must be under

t
The Nebraskan wonders, if ihe book is so
desirable, why Dr. flood bar did nol consider
the student enough to offer him the benefit of
the royalty by providing a cheaper text. r
did he think his plan would appeal more to
our administ ra1 ion Thai is a moot question.
Whatever may have been his intention, the
proposal was ullimately lurried down.
But the offer rankles. That such an in
ducement should be made for the p-ocuriim of
11 book for sludents i;: an effronlery in itself.
f the text is of merit, that should alone justi
fy its acceptance, if not. its rejection, riven
the sliplit consideration given Ihe proposal by
the administration, in submitting- the gentle

of .1917 and 'IS and shortly thereafter he spent
almost nil his time convincing: representatives
of the great powers that his plan would be a
success. The powers banded together and be
came known as a group for the betterment of
law among nations. At that time, however,
their 's was an especial mission. They were
given fourteen points for a basis of interna
tional law to end all wars. The queer thing
about the whole setup was that even though
Wilson was the father of the move, his coun
try was among the few great powers to stay
out.
Now the league is involved in a crisis;
one which has a much greater import than that
which shows on the surface. Its Irne princi
ples are being tested and are found lacking in
a good many respects. Why? Because of the
petty rivalry existing between a power within
the league and one outside; namely Great
Britain and the United States.
The league has in back of it the plan of
economic sanctions. The example already
pointed out between Great Britain and the
United States shows how and why the plan
fails. There is a very strong rivalry between
these two powers in the sale of oil. Italy, as
a result of the motorization of her army, is
ready lo buy and buy plenty of this commod
ity. This country in its neutral position can
sell oil to her with a free conscience. In order
to avoid being beaten in this economic rivalry
Great Britain broke the oil sanction imposed
upon Italy by the league and is now trans
porting as much of the commodity as is the
United States. With this act the sting went
out of the league's move and it became a
farce. What would have happened had we
belonged is a different matter entirely.
This comment merely serves to cast bread
upon the seas for bait when it suggests that it
might be a good thing for every one concerned
if the United States joined the league. Uni

Freedom
In Teaching.
A layman and an educator have agreed
after watching a classroom demonstration that
controversial questions can be discussed in the
public school without prejudicing the students.
The experiment was watched by several
thousand members of the department of su
perintendents of the National Education asso
ciation. The department has announced a na
tionwide fight for freedom of speech in the
classroom.
The demonstration consisted of a discus
sion of the recent decisions of the supreme
court. A class room was set up on the conven
tion stage and twenty-four boys and girls from
a St. Louis high school with Dr. Roy Hatch,
head of the New Jersey State Teachers col
lege, as instructor, joined in the debate. All
angles of the court's recent momentous deci
sions were explained with the various govern
mental implications.
This experiment has been praised the
country over as proof that "controversial is
sues can be handled safely in the classrooms
with positive educational benefit to the pu

a good session with the members
of the forward wall.
First on the program was a
lesson on pivots, sidesteps and
such trickery. Finds were also

and Hernie Scherer, last season's

Bible believes they have missed

and he can aid greatly in a

of iiiurderirir her. He had drowned his daugh

her suffer. English law. literally interpreted,

it is argued euthanasia is cowardly, un

; death was a mark of courage in ancient. Rome,
j and is in China today. And death for a per
fferinsr hoiielesslv from incurable dis
ease may be merciful for others besides the
invalid.
A powerful argument against legalization
of euthanasia is that even expert physicians
cannot he certain that a disease is incurable
or that a new cure will not be discovered to
morrow. Proponents of euthanasia argue,
however, that the small possibility of error
in diagnosing a malady as incurable is too
small to weigh with human misery caused by
the disease.
Have human beings the duty to suffer?
