"Forbear to judge for we are sinners
all . . . Chide no heathen in the world, but
yourself, against whom you know most
faults." Shakespeare. With this bit the
past semester '8 Nebraskan, having en
gaged in a most enjoyable term of office,
now bids adieu as every delay is too long
to one who is in a hurry and students
today seem just that. Trite farewells de
serve no mention here.
CONTEMPORARY
COMMENT
Ideals
In Politics.
Two million dollars was made available
in Harvard university recently for the estab
lishment of a graduate school of public ad
ministration which will train selected men for
a career in government. Representing more
than two-thirds of the income of the entire
system of higher education in Oregon during
the last school vear. the money comes to Har
vard as a cit't from a nian 76 years old. Lucius
Xathan Littauer, a pi.vluate of the Harvard
.-lass of 78.
Fn making the endowment, Mr. Littauer
expressed the hope that the school may "raise
an occupation to a profession." He pointed to
his ten years in congress which had acauainted
him with the need for development of a new
tone in American public life.
Grown weary of inefficiency and incom
petence in government administration. Amer
ica's thinking people should find encourage
ment in the establishment of a school devoted
to developing ideal and new techniques in
public service. Within the coming year, those
persons sensitive to the undercurrents in party
politics will feel deeply the lack of profession
al standards in a field of activity that should
be the most respected in America's many
ided life.
Jxaising the occupation of politics to the
profession of public administration, in ac
cordance with this philanthropist's hope, in
volves essential alterations in the present day
politics. To meet the requirements of a pro
fession, the new profession would engender
in those engaged a professional attitude and
insist on the ideal of service over and above
the motive of personal profits.
Fulfillment of Mr. Littauer's 2 million
dollar hope is a worthy ambition for liar
vnrd's new school. In its realization may lie
the cure for the many ills to be found in
American public life, Oregon State Evergreen,
Politics anil
Leadership.
The question of leadership is one that
each of us faces every day. Do we want
someone to lead us? Do we want to be leaders
ourselves? Or will we follow even after we
have a leader? Leadership depends upon the
efficiency of a personal impression to awaken
feeling, thought, and action, thus it becomes
an important factor of life.
The great majority of people are not lead
ers because a lender must stand forth and
he conceived as superior in some respect, to
all others within range of the imagination.
In 1932 the United States was looking for
a leader. Someone that could lead the coun
try back to normal. President Hoover and
the Republicans had led us into the midst of
one of the darkest depressions we had ever
known, so a change was deemed necessary. A
drastic change was made. The Democratic
party elected Roosevelt as president and over
the whole of the United States the Democratic
party came into power. People have been
temporarily relieved by piling up government
debts for the next generation to pay off or to
figure a way of 'passing the buck' on still
further down the line. Today many people
are just as dissatisfied as they were in 1932
and as the time draws near for another presi
dential election there are many suggestions of
qualities we should look for in a new leader.
The types of personalities which hav as
cendency over us. are a function of our chang
ing character. The character of the Mexican
government is changed whenever the people
feel a change would be best. Instead of wait
ing for the four year period of election to be
served in our accustomed manner they shoot
him, simplifying matters greatly.
Tt is evident that we can look for no cut
nnd dried theory of this Ijfe importing force
for leadership. We are born to action, and
whatever or whoever is capable of suggesting
and leading action has power over us from the
first. Teople clamor for a leader because
altho few will admit it, they would rather be
led, than to lead.
To bring leadership closer to borne we
might mention a few cases on any college cam
pus that are typical of the public political
spirit toward leadership. The sororities and
fraternities elect a president maybe the per
son has the ability to lead but perhaps he does
not. Why was he elected? Because he is a
big social man on the campus and goes to all
the dances or because he has more close friends
who have their dues paid up and eligible to
vote than has his opponent. No matter which
it was, more than likely it was a political pull
that gave him his position and not his ability
at being a leader. After he has been elected
those who were opposed to him in the first
place are not apt to suddenly change and pull
for him unless his ability to make others trust
in him is that of a natural leader.
Politics enters leadership much more than
the majority of people realize. Those that are
on the inside of sorority or fraternity know,
those on the inside of city, state, and national
government know, that the real leaders are the
men behind the scenes and those who are
called "mayor," "governor" and "president"
are really only figure heads. The man who
acts as a leader must have the ability in face
to face relationship but as far as the real
thinking he contributes little. Daily O'Col-legian.
The Union of
The Unemployed.
When 700 unemployed and WPA workers
organized a permanent union for the jobless
recently in Washington, a new high for
brazenness and a new low for Americanism
were established. Not satisfied with present re
lief conditions, these delegates, some of whom
arrived in passenger cars, met in the capitol
and drew up a program for betterment of the
unemployed, all under the supervision of so
cialists, communists and other radicals.
The mere fact that radicals were respon
sible should not be of itself a reason for con
demning the actions of the men. The con
demnation lies in the supposed permanency
of the organization, and the unrest and trouble
which it seems destined to stir up. Not only
did the delegates, who claimed to represent
500.000 men. demand that Congress appropri
ate four times as much money as President
Roosevelt had asked, but they united in ask
ing a thirty hour week, which is less by far
than the average employed man works.
For generations America had held to the
belief that unemployment is a temporary dis
aster for the man who is willing to work.
Many economists doubt that present-day in
dustry can absorb the millions of jobless even
if running full blast. But it is extremely
doubtful that this opinion is any basis for dis
carding the hypothesis to which we have clung
for so long. In the past, conditions have
seemed as hopeless as today but somehow
improvement came.
But when men on relief lost a desire to
get back into industry, a permanently unem
ployed and restless class is established. For
many decades relief has been run on the prin
ciple that no one should starve, but that there
be an incentive for trying to find employment.
Numerous cases are actually on record in
which jobless men have turned down not one,
but several offers of employment, merely be
cause they preferred the idleness and ease of
relief.
When such a condition exists, a nation
is on its way to decadence and obscurity. The
spirit of Americanism which has made this
country what it is today will most certainly
die down if such a class of peramnently un
employed is formed. And when a union is
organized to even further improve the life
of the jobless man, it most certainly seems
to lie a step toward the establishment of such
a class. Purdue Exponent.
