Thirty-Four Years Ago
Thirty-four years ago a meeting In a railroad
car in France brought forth some signatures on a
piece of paper that meant peace and happiness and
security to millions of people the world over.
Today 29 University students will board a
bus at the Union to attend a United Nations
Seminar In New York City. These 29 students
will spent seven days In the realm of Inter-na-
tional relations.
Thirty-four years ago an Armistice was signed
at the end of World War I. Nov. 11 has been ob
served as a legal holiday ever since then. Nov. 11
has become in the long, warring years since
its historic beginning a day to renew efforts
toward peace, a time to stop and think about in
ternational understanding, and a yearly incen
tive to work harder and think more about bring
ing peace to the world.
Today 29 students of our University will be
fin a trip to New York City to see the United
Nations in action. They will meet and Inter
view delegates, they will attend UN sessions,
and they will try to understand a little more
about the greatest effort toward peace our world
has ever known.
Thirty-four years ago, the signing of the World
War I Armistice brought hope to many peoples that
their sons would never again go to war that their
nations would never again mobilize for a world
battle. About 20 years after Nov. 11, 1918, the
world was again seething with discontent, econO'
mic rivalry and reitrlctive nationalism. Twenty-
one years after that historic meeting In France,
nation moved upon nation and our world again
went to war.
Today, 29 University students obviously in
terested in knowing the inner workings of the
United Nations, will leave to study the organiza
tion which is the embodiment of Woodrw Wilson's
LITTLE MAN ON CAMPUS By BibUr
ANDTHtY HVED HAPPILY tWRAFTfR idealism
Again We Ask
. The Daily Nebraskan editorially pleaded, in
- "Monday's publication, for an administrative decree
naming this Saturday as a Student Holiday which
, means dismissal of Saturday morning classes in
view of the annual Homecoming celebration.
Although the dismissal of classes would af
.. . feet a small number of people in relation to
the entire University family the results might
be of great importance to the University. For
Ho special event during the entire school year,
except Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter and rare
convocations, are classes dismissed here.
" 7 course we realize that a specified amount of
time must be spent in regular school-year weeks in
order that the University continue to function as
" an educationally-accredited institution.
However, The Nebraskan would like to re
peat its petition to the powers that be for a
Student Holiday this Saturday, proclaimed by
the administration. It definitely would improve
..... the Homecoming spirit and interest many more
- persons in attending and In paying for our Uni
versity, R.R.
Thirty-four Armistice Day celebrations have
been held since Nov. 11. 1918. World War I
veterans have gotten out their uniforms, marched
in parades, speeches have been delivered to
audiences anxious to hear that our world is on
its way toward peace, the banks have closed
and the American flags have fluttered over main
streets the country over.
This writer finds a significant coincidence in
University students leaving for their weeks' study
of the United Nations on Armistice Day. For 34
years, this world and our nation has been strug
gling for peace. The signatures on that treaty
in France did not keerf man from taking up arm
against man to settle his differences.
Our world today Is seething with a police ac
tion and numerous trouble spots. Korea, Indo
China, Israel, East Germany, the Balkans, Tibet,
India, Pakistan, Burma, Formosa, one might
name the entire world.
And still, 34 years later, we work and pray
for peace. Armistice signatures do not keep
our world from war. Twenty-nine University
students are Journeying to see that organisation
which might mean the difference between racial
suicide and world peaces K.K.

h.ne Idea
If the Student Council has accomplished any- marks in the letter: "Eeferring to the last sen
Jhing this year, it has brought the parking prob- tence from the opinion quoted above, Mr. Nicoll
lem into the spotlight. Under the industrious di
rection of Kocky Yapp, the Council parking com
mittee has proposed two definite plans for help
ing solve some of the inadequacies of the pres
ent parking situation.
The Nebraskan has discussed both these pro
posals in its editorial columns. Both proposals
have certain drawbacks; we have tried to point
those drawbacks out. But both ideas are the
type of forward-moving enthusiasm which The
Nebraskan believes necessary for student govern
ment. We have congratulated the Council and
the individual members for their healthy atti
tude toward student problems and the solution
of those problems
One of the Council proposals wag the con
version of the mall in front of the Coliseum into
a concrete parking lot. This proposal was de
signed to completely remove the space problem
from the parking scene. This proposal has been
thoroughly discussed in earlier editorials. Right
vow, the parking committee is preparing a
comprehensive report to present to the Coun
cil giving the complete low-down on this idea.
The other proposal concerned fines for parking
violations. This was suggested earlier in the
year. On Oct. 16, the Council submitted a tenta
tive outline of the fining system to Dean of the
Division of Student Affairs, J. P. Colbert. This
outline urged that parking violators student and
faculty be fined an amount specified by a com
mittee upon receipt of three or more University
parking tickets.
According to the outline, the income from
the fining system would go toward a scholar
ship sponsored by the Council. The Nebraskan
pointed out right after the outline was proposed
that it was against common law, as we under
stand it, to have fines be automatic. As the
fining system was proposed the University police
would do the fining when they put a parking
ticket on the windshield of an automobile. We
suggest that a board of some sort be established
...o administer these fines. Without this board,
"""see argued, It would be a mistake to have park
ing fines.
Z" The proposal was sent to Dean Colbert and
from there to Bruce Nicoll, the Chancellor's ad
.jninistrative assistant. Nicoll found a legal opin
ion on the idea of assessing fines under the date
of July 26, 1948. At that time the same sort of
fining system was proposed and the University
Attorney was asked for an opinion.
The following is a quote from that opinion. It
whs Included in a letter sent by Dean Colbert to
Yapp.
"As to enforcement of parking within the
ret and enforcement of the requirement of a
license and payment of a license fee, the Uni
versity would seem to have this power as to the
students of the University of Nebraska, It can
require compliance with Its rules and regula
tions as ft condition to admittance and con
tinuance as student in Its school. As to the
University students, the license fee would act
vuut&u to the charge for locker rent or basket
fee at the Coliseum or the science laboratories
fssd me kind of fine imposed for violation
of such licence would be similar to penalties
for holiling books out from the library over the
designated time. However, this would require
the establishment of some kind of procedure
and office to administer, enforce and collect the
iKnes."
In addition, here are some of Colbert's re-
feels that the Student Council should prepare a
definite statement of the nature of the commit
tee, the fines, and how the committee wil pro
ceed in the event that it should want to permit
a student to exercise the right of appeal from
the fine."

Nebraska lost on Saturday

a trip to Kansas could only be

For a while the radio reports

the faculty. This committee has already had two
meetings and made large strides toward creating
the board Colbert refers to.
To some of our readers, it has seemed as if
The Nebraskan has been hypercritical of this
year's Council. We do not wish to give that im
pression at all. We heartily congratulate the
Council for Its straight-forward action on this
parking problem. The Nebraskan definitely sup
ports a parking fine system If it !s set up so that
the student has a right of appeal. We do not
believe in dictatorial fines. The Council com
mittee has given fair indication that it agrees
with this.
In all, the present situation seems to be ex
tremely healthy as far as parking is concerned.
However, we must repeat that this is the only
r.-al thing that the Council is accomplishing or
trying to accomplish. This means, we believe,
that there isn't much else for our student legis
lature to do. It will be the job of the Council
and the critics of the Council to think up some
important action for that body to undertake.
Two years ago the new constitution took up a
lot of the time. Last year the new by-laws were
important. This year the first year under the
new Council system there is not any large proj
ect. The Nebraskan hopes, however, that the
initiative shown in the parking situation will carry
over to other projects and big things will still be
