Viewing With Alarm
Has Its Good Points
Frederic .Snyiler. lecturing ''living news
paper" and foreign correspondent, held a Stu
dent I i) ion audience spellbound in an address
based on 1lie tiincly significances of the cur
rent international situation. His liair-raisiim
predictions of headlines of the. future and his
glib descriptions of present issues made a
deeper impression upon the minds of those, who
heard hi in.
One prediction tittered by Ir. Snyder
who has a reputation for being ahead of the
headlines gives just cause for eyehrowrais
ing. lie said :
'"We are destined to make several very
serious national decisions in this period. Fur
thermore, I believe we are destined to see a
foreign nation attempt to raise its flag on
our territory not the United States proper,
but our possessions-"
Whether he implies Japan in the Philip
pines or Germany in .Mexico is merely specula
tive. The important thing is that such viewing
wii h alarm performs a service to the American
people in awakening them to the j'a-et that im
nation can be isolated during an international
.crisis. When people hear authorities of Mr.
' Snyder's caliber bring the world's troubles
down to earth, the natural reaction is for peu
. pie to Ihink. And when people begin to think
" sanely, frankly, seriously the alarm is di
minished. Thinking on the part of the American peo
ple is the greatest step in preserving democ
racy from the continual threats of "isms." Py
aii'.lvtieal thoiieht. even those millions win
consider democracy nothing but an impractical
theory of government discover that democracy
' can be a practical form of governmental func
tion, a veritable blessing in disguise.
Mr. Snyder sums up democracy's position
todav with a neatlv-wnrded botannical anal
ogy:
"The United States should find and con
ually re-find democracy, must realize it is a
flower which blooms every hour and must
be nurtured and cherished like a delicate
flower if it is to bloom. The danger to our
democracy, including- that from foreign ele
ments which must be digested, comes from
the indifferentist, or the person who won't
take the responsibility to see that his own
democracw works."

There is abundant, joy in at least one Big
Six football camp this year Oklahoma. The
Sooners, undefeated and untied, are whooping
it up not only for a victory over Iowa Slate
at Ames this Saturday, but also for a bid to
the Kosc howl.
We victory-starved gridiron followers at
Nebraska, who in the not so recent, past, have
been doing the same, should not begrudge the
Sooners' happiness. They deserve some of the
grid glories which Nebraska has monopolized

We hope, however, that the older men on
the Sooner siiad are not forgetting that Ihey
have a Nebraska man 1o thank for their good
fortunes. The Nebraska man is Coach Jiiff
Jones who soundly tutored the Sooners in good
football and then turned the job over to Coach

The efforts of the staff of the
Cornhusker hi we been combined
this. week in an attempt to boost
a badly lagging photograph sched

work on the junior, senior, fra

schedules may be concluded by the
first of the year.
Individual posl cards are being
sent out to each junior and senior
urging them to have their photos
taken, fraternity and sorority ed
itors have sent letters to am. made
personal contacts with each of the
houses, stressing the importance
concluding their picture schedule.
December 3 has been set as the
absolute deadline for the. photos.
The reason for setting the dead
line at that time is that the Town

of the photography must clear
up all of their other work In prep
aration for the Christmas rush.
New Picture Arrangement.
Preparation of the photographs
comprises a large share of the
work on the yearbook. All of the
pictures have to be set up on
panels and then sent to the en
gravers. The adoption of a new
system of page makeup which
provides for a different distribu
tion of mateiial on each page dou
bles the work on this section. Ac
cording to Pat Lahr, this new
system eliminates the monotony
found in the picture pages of most

Percentages.
With respect to the ages of
those receiving old age assistance
in the state from July 1 through
Sept. 30, 1935. none was under 63,
4K.4 percent were from fir through
i!t. 21.7 percent Were from 70
through 74, 17.3 percent were from j
73 through 79, 6.H percent were I
from 80 through 84. 2.2 percent !
were from 8." through 89. and less
than 1 percent were 90 and over.
Interesting is the fact that the
, percentage of those under 70 was
greater in the state than in the
country as a whole, being 48.4 in
Nebraska as against 30.6 in the
country.
During the same period Profes
sor Orfield states that 15.6 percent
of persons receiving old age as
sistance funds were living alone;
77 percent were living with rela
tives, and approximately 6 percent
were living with persons not rela-
tives.
"With respect to the proportion
. of persons 65 years and older re
ceiving old age assistance, the
number in June. 1937. ranged from
44 per 1,000 In Maine to 55H in
Oklahoma," Professor O r f 1 e 1 d
states. "The number in Nebraska
was 282 per 1,000, this state be
ing seventh from the top. Men ex
. ceeded women by more than 9 per
cent in spite of the approximately
equal proportion of men and
women In their age group. In Ne
braaka out of 6,268 individuals
accepted for assistance during the
period Nov. l, 1936, through June
30, 1937, 2,691 were male and 2,275

India Poverty Stricken.
"India ought lo be the richest
agricultural country in the world,
but is poverty stricken. The In

tlvir scruples about killing any
living creatine are the major
causes of this poverty. The caste
system is another factor here,"

Ohio State Uni
Gives Money as
Activity Stimulus
COLUMBUS. (ACP). After a
year's successful trial, Ohio State
university will this year subsidize
activities of student organizations
under a plan novel in U. S. col
leges and universities.
Five hundred dollars has been
set aside lo help student groups
bring speakers to the campus, ex
pand social activities, and carry
out other organized projects. Ad
ministered by a dean and a com
mittee of students, the plan will
encourage extra-curricular intel
lectual interests for students.
Bringing in of outside speak
ers is the most common use for
the fund.
Last year one club bought an
"official rubber stamp" to use on
its bulletins and put up a club
bulletin board. Two clubs joined
in converting an abandoned locker
room into a social room.
Reference handbooks and library
books were purchased by several
organizations. The Pen and Brush
club found it possible with this as
sistance to present a downtown v
hibition of its work.
Students in one department used
their subsidy to secure a portrait
of the department chairman and
they plan to use their grants In
suceeding years to add to the col
lection of portraits of those who
have contributed to the profession.

Spreads to Students
WASHINGTON, D. C. fACP).
The Dies committee which Is In
vestlgating un-Amcrlcan activities
will probably pry into the opera
tions of left wing student groups
and youth organizations, if its re
quest for increased funds is
granted by congress.
Charges of communism ami
other subversive doctrines have
been volunteered against some of
these organizations, as well as
data In support of the charges.
However, no witnesses will he
called and no formal investigation
of the charges will be made during
the current sessions of the com
mittee. Lack of funds has forced the
Dies committee to restrict the
SCone of its investiirntlnnq nml
with pressing demands for inquiry
mto otner movements, it has post
poned its scare'- into the activities
of youth organizations.
The youth leaders will probably
be called before the committee
later, if funds are forthcoming to
continue its work.

laughed his warm laugh.
He laughed again as he told of
the young man who said Sunday
night: "If E. Stanley Jones hail

student who said of him, "Either

Relentlessly a mechanical mouth at Bell Tele

talking into this new type telephone. Other telephones
are heing frozen, steamed, baked, lifted and dropped
into their cradles by machines.
Why all these laboratory tortures? Simply because
your telephone must prove it can take more use and
abuse than it will ever get in its normal lifetime. It must
be ready to give you the best possible telephone service.
Exhaustive testing of Bell System apparatus is one
reason you can depend on your telephone always. .
