ITS BEEN 79 YEARS
Alumni from all over Corn
huskerdom will meet in every
part of the United States this
week as the University of Ne
braska celebrates its 79th birth
day on Feb. 15.
The Daily Nebraskan staff will
help in this celebration and add
a little historical background to
the date with the Friday edition
which will be devoted in part
to changes which have been
made over the 79 year period of
development In the university.
Old-timers visit the campus
now and shake their heads at
the difference the years have
made. It only takes a look
around University Hall to see
how Nebraska has changed from
the one building school it was
then to the great university it
is today.
In 79 years, Nebraska has
trrown from a seedlinc to a bud.
Even seniors of today can attest
to how that bud has rrown in
the past four years. With tein
porary building's, new additions
and complete new buildings
added to the campus, a gradu
ate of the class of '41 might
have trouble recognizing his
school now.
On any anniversary, editorial
writers always have a great time
looking to the future. Nebraska's
future looks better than ever
Great plans, made by a great
cnancenor, gives a reliable sign
that the university is at the
threshold of its value to its stu
dents and to the state.
On its 79th anniversary, the
university of Nebraska is a
great school. On its 158th .an
niversary, it will be an even
greater one.
In the manner of locking the
barn door after the horse has
been stolen, a very pertinent
suggestion was submitted to The
Daily Nebraskan yesterday about
ag students and how many of
them face long waits for their
busses between city and ag cam
pus. The suggestion entailed the
construction of a simple shel
ter somewhere near bus stops on
ag and city campuses and the
reason for the suggestion, quite
logically enough, was that it's
plenty cold standing outside and
waiting for transportation.
With winter going into its last
tages according to the better
almanacs, this idea xomes a lit
tle late. However, it would seem
that here is a pertinent sugges-l
versial subject.

Editor;
A few days ago the Nebraska Young Democrats, acting upon a
resolution presented by the U. of N. Young Democrats went unani
mously on record as supporting the Taft-Ellender-Wagner housing
bill.
The housing problem which so seriously affects your life now
will continue to plague you long after you graduate. This bill is the
only answer.
The AVC, VFW, AmVe . ' the Catholic and Jewish War
Veterans have vigorously br . 1 le Truman Administration's in
sistance that this low-cost, long-range housing bill be made law.
Oddly enough, one of its authors, under duress from the real estate
lobby, used his influence to have the bill pigeonholed for the last
two sessions of Congress. It Is this situation which makes it impera
tive for everyone interested in deoent housing to work doubly hard
for its passage. It's the age-old story of big business interests versus
those of the people.
To alleviate this situation a housing conference has been called
in Washington for Feb. 29 and March 1 by the above mentioned
veterans organizations. Talking about housing is idle; action is neces
sary and urgent. The Nebraska Young Democrats intends to send a
representative to this conference. All interested campus groups should
do likewise to put the heat on Congress and rout the real estate lobby.
Interested parties should write, National Veterans Housing Confer
ence, P. O. Box 1627, Washington, D. C.

News

It is reported from Lake Suc
cess, N.Y., the temporary home of
the United Nations, that the Pale
stine partition commisssion has
put the finishing touches on a
special report that will demand
that the Security Council provide
an armed force to back up the
partitioning of Palestine.
The report, which in all prob
ability will be presented to the
Council at its scheduled meeting
this afternoon is believed to de
clare that dividing Palestine into
Arab and Jewish states cannot be
achieved unless a force is pro
vided to back it up. The report
comes as 15 thousand Arabs are
massed in Palestine, fully equiped
with English and American arm3
and mechanized equipment, pre
pared to fight a total war, as was
recently decided in Cairo, Egypt.
