Vin ardi's charges tonched off an American Legion Investigation r th textbook, "The State of Asia." McAffee.) L Limits Objections To Loyalty Of Book's Authors, Publishers By KEN RY STROM Managing Editor Joe Vinardi, Omaha lawyer whose charges touched off an American Legion investigation of a book -used at the University, told The Nebraskan Tuesday that controversy over the book should be limited to one consideration. This factor, he said, is the reputation of the contributors, editor and publisher of the book, "State of Asia." In a specially arranged inter view, Vinardi. chairman of the Department of Nebraska Legion Un-American Activities Commit tee, 'declared that the following were irrevelant to consideration of the use of the book: 1. The argument that its use is a matter of academic free dom. 2. Arguments or statements Concerning the loyalty of Dr. E. N. Anderson, who used the book in his History 102 class last semester. S. Comments or discussion concerning contents of the book. "Wrapping the exposure of the book in academic freedom," Vin ardi said, "is very dangerous thinking. He said that academic freedom is being used as a force to protect something that would destroy academic freedom." He concluded that the issue of academic freedom raised by The Nebraskan and the American Association of University Pro fessors was not a part of the con troversy over the use of the book. He denied a report that he "In no way doubts the integ rity, loyalty or patriotism of Dr. Anderson." What he meant, he said, was that he does not make the question of Dr. An-' derson's loyalty part of the es sential facts of the investiga tion. Nevertheless, Vinardi reiterated his earlier statement that Ander son should admit that he "made a careless mistake in choosing and using the text, "I don't know what was taught in; the course," he said, but "I think Anderson should stand up and be counted" on the side of Americanism. "I think he is making an even greater mistake in defend ing the author" of the book, Vinardi said, by calling the text "a reputable book put out by a reputable publisher and written by reputable authors." Either Anderson was "very naive or utterly uninformed," he said, when the text was chosen. Now that the reputations of per sons connected with the book have been exposed, Vinardi said, Anderson should definitely admit that he was wrong in its use. "'He's helping to mold the minds of the youth of the state," he said. This is a secred trust reposed in him," he said. Vinardi told The Nebraskan that he had purchased a copy of "State of Asia" from a Uni versity bookstore and that he had read the chapter written by Mr. and Mrs. Owen Lattimore. When asked his opinion of the contents of the book in general and the Lattimore chapter In particular, Vinardi answered that he had his own opinions but that the contents were "be alde the point." He called the actual state ments In the book "side issues" and "tangent" to the main issue. In The Nebraskan Monday "Vinardi was quoted as asking, Is it good Americanism to allow that type of book to be used wheniij.ttim i'uh T "c' "lB, J1L ,D 1, , mnrB Amor-1 inan mithnrcV" A B.? . ne ever n been a promoter of Communism and In Tuesdav's interview he de- Com,"?unists Interests.

AVhen presenting a question able text, he said, an Instructor should tell his students, "This is an example of the horrible stufi,velo nt and be retluired t0 ha used by the people trying to de-ih i, ij rf used by the people trying stroy us." He called for the use of Com munist literatureif It is care fully labeled as such and if it is explained as being subversive. Vinardi criticized use of a story told by Dr. Anderson last week. The story: "A boy who had attended a university went home on vacation and his father said, 'I understand they teach you about Communism there.' The boy replied, 'Yes, and they teach us about syphlllis but they don't recommend it.' " Vinardi called the story clever" but "not apropos said that the boy did not tell his father that "They are not putting germs in my blood stream." When questioned why he dis approved o" the use of "State of Asia," Vinardi said the doubts V V i ....... . 9 liiiiiiiiiMiiiiiW'nittiiMMi niiiiiiimti- iig Daily Xebraskan Thoto by Darwin , surrounding the loyality of Edi tor Lawrence K.

He was quoted as sa. , ""If you could find good Co, nist literature and Teally fi t it, your membership will Teally in crease" -and the American "Le gion Teally has a chance to shine if this becomes a fight. His speech, he told The Ne braskan, "exposed the use of theJ text of "State of Asia' in a course at the University and -condemned use of that particular book." He left action up to the Lincoln post, he said. Appointment of the three-man investigation commit lee, ne added, "was a proper step. v Vinardi told The Nebraskan that be had been misquoted on his statement calling for loyalty oaths. An early news tory said Vinardi "recommended that the Lincoln Legion group 'initiate a program in the school system in this elty to require a loyalty oath.' ' Later it was reported that all teachers in Lincoln public schools now sign such oaths. Vinardi said he knew that thp Lincoln teachers signed lovaltv oaths. He was calling, he said, for extension of the program to teachers not paid out of oublir funds. It is inconceivable, he said, that some teachers should have to subscribe to oaths while oth ers do not.

The subcommittee said legislation should be enacted to cancel the authority given the Department of Agriculture to make flood entrol surveys.

The committee referred to the Koje Island pri- veryson riots last spring in which American and South Korean guards weikilled many Communist Prisoners The committee said the Incident appeared to violate the clause which states "The use of weapons against prisoners of war, es pecially those who are escaping or attempting to escape, shall con stitute an extreme measure, which shall be preceded by warning appropriate to the circumstances." The Legion Reports The American Legion commit tee investigating use of the book f! "'State of Asia" submitted its pre- liminary report to Maryellen Lorton, commander of Post eo. s, Tuesday afternoon. The report follows: December 16, 1952 To the Commander of American Legion Post No. S Lincoln, Nebraska Dear Commander: Tour Special Committee here with submits to you our pre' liminary report: 1. At the regular meeting of Lincoln Post No. 3, December , 1952, Mr. Fred Bramlage, Past National Vice Commander, deliv ered the mam address. On the program with 1. Bramlage was Mr. Joe Vinardi of Omaha, Chair man of the un-American Activ ities Committee for the Depart ment of Nebraska. Following the talKs there was an open discussion at which time Mr. Vinardi stated that a certain book bad been used as a text book by a eertain pro fessor at the University of Ne braska, '"which the students couldn't swallow". No names were mentioned in the meeting and no official action of the Legion was taken at that time. The follow ing day a committee was ap pointed to consider the matter. 2. After the regular meeting Mr. Vinardi was interviewed by re porters. The newspaper reports of the following day, giving the name of the book and the name of the nrof essor were as much of a sur- prise to the legionaires attending! ' a the meeting as they were to K&COtTllTt&nClS university professor.

That committee convened for a full year and examined 20,000 doc uments and 66 witnesses. Its reports are now In 14 volumes. From the numerous on olusions of that committee with reference to the Institute of Pacific Relations, Its publica tions and its personnel, we offer the 'following which is immed iately pertinent: (See U.S. News & World Report 71152). Concerning the sponsors of the book State of Asia: "The institute of Pacific Re lations has not maintained the Character of an objective, schol arly and research organization." Concerning editor and co author Lawrence K. Rosinger: "Rosinger was called a cdm- munist by three witnesses during the sub committee hearings, and Iwhen called to testify, claimed his wne"CB"ea ciaimea nis constitutional rights and refused member of the communist party."

Yonr committee will con tinue its study of the matter, and has asked for a great deal more research material. Since these reports are available it would seem to pose the question to universities and schools Should the conclusions, findings and evidence developed in this Senate bearing justify a re evaluation of the materials so liberally supplied, particularly when used as objective, factual material?

Referring to Ruth Raymond, editor of The Daily Nebraskan, Carpenter said it is rediculous that the Legion be criticized bv a naive school girl. 'She bas no concept of what communism is," he said, "or the danger it .contains." Miss "Raymond, -commenting on Carpenter's 'Statement, said, "My entire reaction to Mr. Car penter's statements is deep re gret that personal and political ambition is so great a force that it feeds itself on matters of far-reaching significance and uses subject far above partisan politics to perpetuate itself "And 1 am sorry that Mr. Denter ehose the subinrt of ana- demic freedom to further his own ends." ,. . , , ' f,8?6181 tflS that a loyalty oath be required not only of educators, but of every state employee, including the state legislators.

'If I were he," he said, "1 would not only agree to but insist on such an investigation." The office of Chancellor R. G Gustavson said the Chancellor would have no comment on the legislator's proposals. The .American Legion State Americanism Commission and a subcommittee, the Americanism Committee, will hold a Sunday afternoon meeting at the Lincoln Hotel Legion headquarters.

The Governor went on to ex plain that ha thought the liberal arts college should come first. Agricultural College second and from there on whatever colleges and schools "as the state can af ford." "I think it is unfortunate," said Peterson, "that the University fot into some of the colleges we got into. Journalism is one." Chancellor Gustavson Agreed with the governor that the Uni versity should cot expand and add colleges of veterinary medi cine or mining. But he contended that one college could not be singled out as more important than another. The work of the present col leges is interlocking, he said. Gus tavson contended that on the uni versity level you have to look at the broad work of a group cf colleges. Peterson's statement cf elimi nating what he term "fringe" col leges was not enthusiastically re ceived by University officials. William F.

The school is a leader in the journalism pro fession, he said, and is well recog nized by competent newspaper men of Nebraska and the na tion." The school of journalism's budget amounts to less than one half of one per cent of the re quested appropriation for the Uni versity. One University official ex pressed the opinion that Peterson has been off the Tecord in favor of cutting down or completely eliminating the schools of jour nalism and fine arts and the col- loge of Pharmacy ever since he became governor.
