Library ToAdopt
New Classification
""Space for the newcomers,
a problem especially plaguing
the University this year,
seems to have been solved
at the Library.
By changing from the Dew
ey Decimal Classification
System to the Library of
Congress classification, "We
are making room for the
great expansion of know
ledge found in the many new
books," noted Miss Kathryn
lienfro, assistant director for
technical services.
Although not changing all
titles already on stock to the
Library of Congress system,
she said that all new acqui
sitions are being classified in
the new system new for the
University anyway.
The new system of classi
fication, which was imple
mented July 1, 1964, has al
ready been applied to 25,000
volumes of the total 779,000
volumes found in the library.
"In our opinion, it is t h e
best system for academic li
braries in that it permits the
greatest expansion of know
ledge," Miss Renfro said.
"The Dewey system does
not permit the expansion of
new subject areas, such as
science. In addition, it is dif
ficult to insert these new sub
jects," she said.
The Dewey system, she
pointed out, had in recent
years called for 11 digit de
cimals in the call numbers.
She noted, however, that the
call numbers would not be
shorter with the Library of
Congress system but that
areas could be added with
greater ease.
Rather than using the 000
999 system in the Dewey Dec
imal system, the Library of
Congress classification uses
letters. Second letters may
be added behind the first let
ter thus making it possible to
accomodate new subject
fields without relocating and
redoing all the cards, which
had been previously done
about "every two years, and
in the last few years more
often."
By accepting the new class
ification, she said that the
library "can get cooperative
cataloging from the Library
of Congress." In this way, the
Library will have call num
bers already made.
However, she said, the Li
brary of Congress does not
have cataloging for all ma
terials, particularly in f o r -eign
language materials.
There are two card cata
logues for the two systems
of classification and the book
for each classification are in
different areas. However,

"Entertainment" is t h e
word Mrs. Clifford Hardin,
wife of the University's
chancellor, stressed while
describing the new house at
41 The Knolls that she will
be moving into sometime
before Christmas.
The living room, family
room, enclosed porch and
lower level recreation room
will be just perfect for en
tertaining large groups of
official guests, Mrs. Hardin
explained.
"The U n I v e r 8 1 1 y has
wanted me to do more en

In our present house there
just Isn't room or facili
ties. I will love entertain
ing more people in the new
house."
'Perfectly Equipped'
Mrs. Hardin pointed out
that the new house is per
fectly equipped and de
signed for a chancellor's
residence.

Miss Renfro emphasized that
they try to keep related sub
jects together, such as books
on a certain science field
classified by the Dewey sys
tem in one end of the Sci
ence Reading Room and
books on the same subject
classified by the Library of
Congress System at the other
end of the same room.
Noting that over one-h a 1 f
of the libraries in the Associ
ation of Research Libraries,
of which the University is a
member, now use the Library
of Congress classification.
Miss Renfro said that t h e
classification is especially
helpful for large research li
braries. She said that the
University of Omaha current
ly uses the Library of Con
gress classification and that
several large universities, in
cluding the University of Ore
gon and the University of
Maryland have changed to
the Library of Congress
classification during the last
year.
Smaller branch libraries of;
the University will not be
changed to the Library of
Congress classification, Miss
Renfro said.
Regarding the larger
branches, she said the law
library will not be changed,
because the Library of Con
gress classification is not yet
complete. She said a decision
has not been made on wheth
er the Library of Congress
classification or the National
Library of Medicine classifi
cation will be used at t h e
College of Medicine library.
"People have adopted and
are using the new classifica
tion quite well," Miss Renfro
said. There is little change in
locating books under the new
classification. You still go to
the catalogue, find the spe
cific book you need by au
thor, title or subject and copy
down the call number.
However, Miss Renfro
urged students who had any
questions or problems to
contact the information li
brarian near the catalogue.

Vol. 81, No. 5
By Wayne Kreuscher
Senior Staff Writer
The Indian-Pakistani-Red
Chinese conflict will either
begin to end or develop in
to a full scale war involv
ing the United States and
most of the world today.
Professor Soon Sung Cho,
who teaches international
relations and Asian politics,
gave his views on the pre
sent conflict in an inter
view with the Daily Ne
braskan. He said that today two
important decisions would
would have to be made:
First, India will have to
decide what it is going to
do about Red China's ulti
matum which insists that
India leave Kashmir and
stop fighting or be invaded
by Red China.
Secondly, Pakistan will
have to decide if it's going
to accept the United Na
tion's resolution to cease
fighting in Kashmir.
Cho said that he did not
believe Red China was ac
tually going to declare out-and-out
war and invade In
dia. "Regardless of the ulti
matum," he said, "R e d
China cannot afford to in
vade India and will probab
ly stick with just border
skirmishes."
Ultimatum 'Political'
He pointed out that the
ultimatum is only a politi
cal gesture in which Red
China is trying to influence
Pakistan's breaking with
its two free world defense
pacts, SENTO and SEATO.
He explained that Pakis
tan has for many years
been a key country in the
free world's defense of Asia
because of its membership
in the two defense groups.
But, he said, since 1962
Pakistan has drifted fur
ther away from the United
States and the free world.
Cho said that originally
under the U.S. foreign pol
icy of John Foster Dulles,
the U.S. gave no military
aid to neutral countries.

Many electrically-operated

The chancellor and his
family are presently living
at 2110 A, a house acquired
in 1938, according to Joseph
Soshnik, vice chancellor for
business and finance. The
University estimated h e
present value of the home,
which is 50 to 60 years old,
at about $12,962.
Book Value
Soshnik pointed out that
this estimate was only the
book value or the depreci
ated value based on the ori
ginal cost.
He said that undoubtedly
the house is worth more and
that before it was put up for
sale, it would have to be
evaluated by a real estate
agent.
r War
Thus, he explained, Pak
istan received a great deal
of military aid from the
United States, but India
didn't. However, in 1962 un
der the Kennedy adminis
tration, the U.S. policy
changed and military aid
was given to help India
fight Red China in border
skirmishes.
Pakistan 'Fell Away'
"From Pakistan's point of
view," Cho said, "the
United States was building
up India's army not to fight
Red China, but to fight
Pakistan in the never end
ing border disputes."
Cho said that this Indian
aid made Pakistan feel she
desperately needed some
sort of bargaining power
and Pakistan started negoti
ating with the Soviet Union
and Red China more in or
der to bargain with the Unit
ed States.
"The more, Pakistan has
dealt with the communists,"
he stressed, "The cooler
America's attitude has be
come toward Pakistan. To
day Pakistan has practical
ly drifted completely away
from the free world alli
ances." "In this way," Cho said,
"the cause of the conflict
is sort of a by product of
the change in America's
foreign policy."
Thus, he said, Red China
is strongly supporting Pak
istan and trying to win her
favor, but the Chinese real
ly are not planning war.
China's Problems
Cho said that Red China
can't afford war now be
cause she needs to devel
op her nuclear power more,
because of her economy,
and because she doesn't
need I n d i a's population
added to her food problems.
He stressed that in his
opinion the United States
should retaliate with bombs
if Red China does invade
India, but that otherwise

Mrs. Hardin said that al

in the old house, the Uni

"Red China really doesn't
care about what happens in
Kashmir," Cho said, "but
she wants both India and
Pakistan to use all their
arms up fighting each oth
er. Red China is the only
one who is gaining in this
conflict."
He said that there was
nothing America could do
at the present time except
try to get Pakistan and In

"America, he said," will
have to emphasize econom

guarantees a plebicite vote

He explained that Pakis
tan wants the Kashmir peo
ple to decide for themselves
which country, India or
Pakistan, they want to be
long to, because 80 per cent
of the people are Moslems
and would probably vote for
Pakistan.
Cho said that India, on
the other hand, would pro
bably be against the reso
lution if it required a pleb
icite vote because if India
loses Kashmir, other Indian
states probably also would
want to separate from In

opinion Kashmir should be
given its independence and
made sort of a buffer state
between the Communists
and the free world.
