kst Mmm Us...
By DON PIEPER
Editor
Monday class officer filings open.
Certain of those who will go to the Adminis
tration Building for filing blanks will do so be
cause they have been tapped by a campus party
as nominees. I hope there will be others.
Several Informed sources maintain that the
Faction (All-University Party) is undergoing an
organic change for the better. This, of course,
means that Faction men admit that there is some
thing which needs improvement. I agree that im
provement is needed and, if the changes are sin
cere, I offer my wholehearted support.
I offer that support not because I believe that
the basic political philosophy of the Faction is
necessary but because I want to see the day when
our campus conducts politically mature elections.
I want to see University elections serve as a
training ground for practical politics. If this
ideal is ever to be reached, active political parties similar to the Prom issue mentioned above, can
It leaves out so many things. For instance, Fac
tion representatives choose the class leaders and
often on a bisis of keeping different houses happy
rather than in an effort to find the man best
suited.
It has been said that this is reality. Practical
politics operate this way. Unfortunately, they
often do. However, In American politics, only
George Washington was put into the presidency
under a one-party banner. Politics on our campus
are unrealistic in the American tradition because
they have only one party. Granted, no one has
shown sufficient interest in the last few years
(really not since the veterans left school) to or
ganize against the Faction. And when attempts
have been made at forming more than one party,
it has always been on the Greek-independent
level. I do not think that this is the proper place
for splitting the campus. I think that issues,
will be needed.
One of the main reasons for the drought of
healthy politics on this campus is the lack of is
sues. This year there is an issue and I think it
is a big issue. There are persuasive arguments
available on either side. This issue has nothing
to do with the Greek-independent struggle.
Should there be a Junior-Senior Prom next
year?
be brought up where disagreements do not rest
on affiliation.
Faction men fight this because they say that
it splits the fraternities. A united fraternity sys
tem is one of the main objectives of the Faction.
I know that I am opening myself to immediate
and loud criticism, but I do not believe that most
of the work of student leaders has to do with
Greeks as Greeks or independents as a class
Therefore, I do not think that split in campus
There is nothing earth-shaking about this issue politics would hurt things too much.
But It does have its campus significance. I am
firmly convinced that a Spring Formal with a
name band would add something to the social set
up we now have on the campus. This year's of
ficers tried to put such a dance over but the stu
dent body just wouldn't respond. Does this mean
that the Idea of ,a class-sponsored dance is wrong?
Or does this mean that this year's officers just
didn't do things the right way?
However you look at it, their was no Prom
this year and tradition says that there must be a Greek,
Prom every year. I think that there are excellent
possibilities here for an issue. Something about
which two groups can disagree. It is needed and
it is healthy.
Fraternities go much deeper than mere campus
politics and I will everlastingly defend the basic
fraternal principles. I belong to a fraternity and
I am very proud of that affiliation. I would never
consciously do anything to injure that affiliation
or the Greek system in general.
Nevertheless, I believe that if the man elected
is honest and makes the decisions which are to
the best interests of the University, he should
make the same decisions whether he is barb or
The Faction argument is and has always been the Faction,

wouldn't be sure of being elected if some or
ganization didn't guide things. My answer has
always been that fraternity men don't need to win
merely because they are fraternity men. If Greek
candidates are the best men, then they most cer
tainly deserve the office. And one of the big
troubles with the Faction has been that the men
nominated aren't always the best men.
Last year some seniors began an opposition
party called the "Senior Action Committee." It
didn't amount to much because it had no basic
principles or objectives other than the defeat of
This is all right within a temporary
But this campus sorely needs an
other group interested in what goes on. I defi
nitely think that something ought to be done this
year about achieving that objective.
Until something is done to bring active com

urge any interested student to take advantage of
his right to file for either a class office or a Stu

'Probe Of Church
Would Be Scandal'
(KDITOK'S NOTKt The following edi
torial appeared In the March 13th edition
of Ihc Ml. 1-ouli PoU-Dlspalch.)
Members of Representative
Velde's Un-American Activities
Committee have been prompt to
oppose his radio-voiced threat to
investigate churches and clergy
men. The Illinois Republican's
notion, happily, was condemned
by members of his own party as
well as by its Democratic minor
ity on the committee.
Nevertheless Velde's remarks
about church-connected organiza
tions and individuals revealed the
bent of mind of a contemporary
inquisitor. In seeking new fields
to conquer and new headlines to
harvest, such men have gone from
rather obvious Communist-front
organizations to other political
groups, to governmental agencies,
to schools and colleges. And now
Velde has underscored the re
cently expressed warning of a
Washington clergyman that
churches might well be next.
The Illinois Representative's ex
planation of such an investigation
was the possibility that "the
American Communist party
through its membership, is at
tempting to destroy religion in
this country by infiltration, and
by external means."

Foreign students who make up

highly important part of the

in school.
This is primarily because coun

effort to maintain a stable cur

impose rigid restrictions on cur

any such limited financial plans

This means that foreign stu

order to pay University fees and
to eat, sleep and live, have little

This gives them three choices:
to apply for one of a limited num

along on what money they can
bring over (since this country's
immigration restrictions prohibit
them from getting a job here) or
to go back home.
Most are ultimately compelled
to take the third alternative, a
damaging choice both from their
standpoint and from ours.

the plight of the, foreign student
can be alleviated. One is through
scholarships, a few of which are
offered by the State Department,
by colleges and universities and
by such service groups as Rotary
International.
Another way Is for foreign
countries to lift the restrictions
they impose on students taking
currency out of the country. The
difficulty is that these countries,
must at all costs maintain a stable
currency and any loophole offers
dangers.
The third, and best, way it for
the United States to relax Its re
strictions on foreign students
working in this country. Many are
willing to work and would wel
come the opportunity to meet
more Americans on the job. To
day they cannot.
The job restriction is one of the
last footholds of isolationism in
this country. An internationalist
country, as deeply enmeshed in
world affairs as this one, cannot
afford to lose any opportunity for
international understanding.
