All-University Church
Night Gains Importance
As War Threatens Nation
Every year the university administration sets
aside one evening early in the fall for All-University
Church Night. On that evening every student
church group holds a party, program or service
for students affiliated with the churches repre
sented. As a whole the students are very much
interested and each church group has a large at
tendance. Friday night is All-University Church Night for
the year 1941-42. Always important, this night
takes on even more importance to students of the
university as citizens of the United States since
this is the critical year of 1941-42. With the danger
of war hanging over the nation there should be a
swing back to religion, which is often forgotten
during easy, peaceful times.
During times of stress such as the present war
situation, less important matters are forgotten and
real values come to the fore. Religion is one of
these and the churches, with the university Council
of Religious Welfare which sponsors the annual
church night, will this year have a more difficult
and more comprehensive task than they have had
tor many years.
One phase of Daily Nebraskan policy this year
will be to support religious groups in their work
and to aid them as much as possible.
"No attention at all has teen paid to requests
that instructors be deferred (from military service),
nnri it is almost impossible to recruit teachers of en
gineering. As a result, wnile we are asked to train
more engineers, we have fewer teachers to conduct
the classes." Harrison C. Dale, president of the Uni
versity of Idaho.
"Greece is starving but firm in her loyalty to
the principles for which she fought The question is
how long this passive resistance can continue among
a DeoDle hungry to the point of death." Dr. Minnie
B. Mills, president of Pierce College for Girls at
Athens.
Behind the News
By David Thompson.
Bulgarian Refusal
It is becoming more and more
evident that German influence is
waning to a certain extent in the
Balkans these davs. The most re
cent development is the announce
ment made yesterday by the min
ister of the interior that Bulgaria
has no intention of entering the
Russian war on the side ot oer-
manv. it is no secret anions in
formed sources that Germany has
been trying to get Bulgaria to ac
tively support the military effort
in Russia, but apparently tne ei
fort to get Slavs to fight Slavs
has gone amiss.
Popoular uprisings in Bulgaria
may have had a great deal to do
with this. Rumors of uprisings
have been coming out of Bulgaria
continually in the past few weeks.
The strength of the "Slav for
Slav movement in Bulgaria then
has certainly grown by leaps and
bounds since the first world war.
Bulgaria, if you will remember,
was the one Balkan country to
fight on the side of the central
powers in that war.
In spite of Bulgaria's refusal to
fight with the Germans, it is quite
probable that Germany may use
divisions of the Bulgarian army
to garrison occupied territories,
thereby relieving German divisions
to be used against Russia. This
much Bulgaria may accede to Ger
man demands.
This Bulgarian refusal to take
an active part in the Russian cam
paign does not, however, relieve
the threat to Sebastopol or the
eastern Ukiaine. Germany can and
will use Bulgarian and Rumani
an ports as a "shoving off" place
for her sea borne attack thru the
Black sea. This much Germany
is allowed to do by a previous
agreement which brought Bul
garia into the axis fold.
However, the Bulgarian posi
tion makes an axis attack upon
Turkey and the Dardanelles an
extremely hazardous affair. It
not only makes it tactically more
difficult, but it may well serve to
stiffen Turkey's determination to
fight for her independence. The
recent German successes in the
Ukraine may make unnecessary
any attack upon Turkey by the
axis. Such an attack would only
come, at this point, incident to a
sea borne drive upon the eastern
Ukraine and the Caucasus. Fur
ther collapse of Russia's defense
on this southern front would re
move the necessity for such an
attack.
The alkans have long been
known as the "powder keg" of
Europe, and popular uprisings a
byword. For that reason der
fuehrer may find that he will have
his hands full in the Balkans as
well as in the occupied territories
if he tries to push them too far.
