Work Out During Xmas
Vacation.
The varsity wrestling team is
rapidly rounding into shape for
its first meet of the year, which
is tentatively scheduled for Jan.
14 and 15 at Wctherford, Okl.,
with Central State Teachers and
Southwest State Teachers colleges
of Oklahoma. 'A full team worked
out during; Christmns vacation,
nml these men are conceded to be
hard to beat out for team posi
tions. The vacation squad included
Fred Webster, letterman In 1936
in the 118 pound division; Leland
Claire, DePaul university cham
pion in the 126 pound division;
Bill Luke in the 135 pound class,
Julius Whittman in the 3-15 pound
class, Ray Tomes in the 155 pound
class, Paul Fidlcr, 165; Carl Yost,
175, nnd DeLos Johnson, heavy
weight. Coach Laid Up.
Other men who have shown up
well in practice include John
Weingnitcn, John Williams, Jerry
! ranks, Jack Berger, Robert Alex
ander, BiH Horn, who may get the
call in cither the 155 or 165 pound
classes; fteorge Sukovaty, a
heavyweight; Bud Cather and
Jerry Adams, letterman last year
in the 155 pound division.
Because of an injured back,
Jerry A l.ims, coach, is not able to
work out with bis men as is cus
tomary but he reports that he is
receiving excellent co-operation
from last yours lettermen and
Hint as a result the new men are
shaping up well. The men need
more work on conditioning and
fundamentals but will be ready for
their first match.
Several freshmen have also been
working out with the team this
year. This group includes Shelley
Condon, Dale Reuser, Milton Kus
ka, Jack Sampson and Dwight
Burney.
Beside the tentative match with
the Oklahoma schools, dual meets
have already been scheduled with
Minnesota, Iowa, Iowa State, and
all members of the Big Six.

WARNS LABOR AGAINST
COMMUNISM IN FIGHT

country upon our own democratic
methods for the working out of
our own problems, both domestic
and international. We must stop
looking to the Soviet Union as h
model for solving our own eco
nomic difficulties and as a source
of defense for democracy against
fascism," Dewey states.
Democratic Methods of Approach.
Referring to the investigation
it brought to light Dewey asserts,
"The great lesson to be derived
from these amazing revelations is
the complete breakdown of revo
lutionary Marxianism. Nor do I
think that a confirmed Communist
is going to get anywhere by con
cluding that because he can no
longer believe in Stalin, he must
now pin his faith on Trotsky. The
great lesson for all American radi
cals and for all sympathizers
with the IT. S. S. R. is that they
must go back and reconsider the
whole question of means of bring
ing about social changes and ot
truly democratic methods of ap
proach to social progress."
"The Russian experiment proves
conclusively that when violence
is used to bring about economic
and political reform, the method
of force must be employed to
keep the new government ui
power. Such revolutions are in
evitably made by a few people.
Thcv can onlv retain their politi
cal supmnac y by a combination
of two methods: Pa'Uy by making
concessions to the many, such
as differentials in wages, etc.,
which are essentially the grounds
for Trotsky's claim that the
Stalinist regime has abandoned
Marxianism and is on its way to
state capitalism unless overthrown
by the workers; partly, as the
Stalinist regime has done, by sup
pressing all opposition, even within
the party, and in doing this the
Stalinites have not been at ail
choice in their methods. The dic
tatorship of the proletariat has led
and. I am convinced, always must
lead to a dictatorship over the pro
letariat and over the party. I s?e
no reason to believe that some
thing similar would not happen in
every country in which an attempt
is made to establish a Communist
government '
Removable by Force Only.
Dewey believes that the present
Russian government is so strongly
intrenched that it can be removed
only by force. The recent gestures
of the Russian government toward
constitutional government he sees
as only emphasizing the fact that
democracy in the soviet union Is a
farce.
"While the U. S. S. R. proclaims
Complete freedom of the individual
as its end, the means they use Vio
late every elementary freedom of
thought, speech, press and freedom
of movement, since they have re
vived the system that obtained un
der the Tzars of demanding pass
ports for domestic travel."
Pointing out that the communist
conceives of his goal as being bo
Important as to excuse any means
to that end, Dewey emphasizes
the danger in such a belief. "It is
the means that are employed that
decide the ends or consequences
that are actually attained."
Threatens Democratic- Nations.
"However, in any case, If the
methods used by the soviet union
are merging more and more with
those of Hitlorlsm, how ran we re
ly upon them?" asks the philos
opher as he shows a new possible
threat to the democratic nations.

sweeter if called by some other

Everyone, coaches and players

Many were disappointed In the

It concerned Fred Shirey, his

I threw the ball to Fred."
The crowd seemingly agreed
with the Nebraska flankman at
the time, too, for they certainly
emitted a lusty razzberry!
Shirey also took laurels as a
standout of the game, tho he could
obviously be not as spectacular as
Dohrmann. His defensive play has
been named as the best in the
West line. Coach Biff Jones was
really a proud papa the night after
the annual fracas.
Once again, football rules un

(2) When the ball goes out of
bounds between the goal lines or
become dead within 15 yards of
the side lines, tbn ball will be
put into play 15 yards from the
sideline rather than 10 as here
tofore. Neither change will effect the
king sport to any great extent.
The first gives the team's pilot a
better chance to utilize his full ar
ray of maneuvers at all times, in
cluding 4 passing plays, if he so
desires.
The second merely gives a team

move more and more in the direc
tion of state capitalism in order
to maintain his position, we may
expert a gradual approach of the
two nations toward each other.
The policy of an alliance with Rus
sia is an old policy of Bismarck's
and of the Gorman general ptnff.
If war is delayed for a few years,
it is not inconceivable that Russia
and Germany will again be allies.
We have to face this possibility."
While discussing the investiga
tion of Trotsky nnd his son who
were declared by the investigat
ing committee innocent of the
charges made in the famous Mos
cow trial Dewey says: "It found
that the prosecutor made no ef
fort to ascertain the truth and that
his procedure contradicted at every
point the rules laid down for legal
procedure in Russian law in a book
edited by the prosecutor himself
It found that the three alleged in
terviews with Trotsky, said to
have occurred in Copenhagen,
Paris and Oslo, never took place,
this finding being supported by a
mass of notarized depositions by
persons In personal contact with
Trotsky at the time the interviews
were alleged to have been held,
many of them his political ad
versaries." Finds Communists Troublesome.
American labor masses, Dewey
believes, are not affiliated with
either branch of communism (are
neither Trotsky Itcs or Stalinites),
and it is this group that is the
important element In any consist
ent labor movement in this coun
try. The C. I. O. in its earliest
stage carelessly accepted members
who belong to these communist
factions, hoping to deal with them
late;, but now it is finding them
very troublesome.
"The danger lies in the fact that
the tactics employed by these
i communist groups have invaded
the forces of labor and are at-
tempting to divide it. When the
j labor movement accented these
communist factions, the great
mass of labor, which belongs to
neither group, was very poorly
served by a leadership which used
the same methods of expediency
wmcn tne u. S. S. R. has prac
ticed, namely, that the end justi
fies the means. Fortunately, it is
not too late for the great mass of
union members and their leaders
to face the realities and lay out
policies that will result in sounder,
if somewhat less accelerated,
growth of the American trades
union movement."
Educational Freedom Destroyed
When questioned as to the pres
ent status of education in Russia,
upon which he would be a good
authority for some of his ideas
have been used in the older com
munist educational system, Dewey
deplored recent developments.
"Propaganda and regimentation
have grown enormously. So much
so, that the pupils are now even
put into uniforms. The germs of
educational freedom which cer
tainly existed in the better schools
at that time have been, according
to reliable reports, all but com
pletely destroyed.
"How a change can be brought
about under the present conditions
or suppression of individuality,
falsification, and terrorism I have
not the faintest conception. A
people that is kept in systematic
ignorance of what is going on in
the world and even in their own
country and which is fed on lies
has lost the fundamental leverage
of progress. To me, as an educa
tor, this is the great tragedy of
the Russian situation."
"Truth, Mainspring of Progress."
Summarizing the entire Russian
experiment and its application to
the United States, Dewey empha
sized the fact that if you triumph
by ruthlessness, then you must ex
pect a ruthless counter attack.
This conclusion must force the
radicals in our country to turn to
democracy and the application of
reason to the dally development of
economic problems. Marxian prin
ciples of revolution have resulted
only In the crassest dictatorship.
Denouncing those professed lib
erals who would keep the Ameri
can public in the dark concerning
the developments In Russia, Dew
ey exclaimed, "Truth, instead of
being a bourgeois virtue, is tho
mainspring of all human progress."
