' Alpha Chi Omega was founded at
De Pauw University, October IB, 1885,
the movement being fostered by Jnroos
L. Howe, tho dean of the school of
muslcy because at that tlmo the Dc
Pauw fraternities did not consider
students In the musical department
eligible to membership, and he was
103lrous of affording such students
tho benefits to bo derived from such
'A organizations.
.. Tho intention of the sorority for

' chapters In musical schools. Not be

creasing tendency for several years,
wore mado a constitutional require
. ment,' musical ability still being re
. talned as an additional requisite

SOCIALIST'S VIEW
DAMAGE 18 DONE BY OVER-CAPI-TALIZATION,
John Graham Brooks Discusses Gov
ernment 'Ownership and Favors
the Roosevelt Policies.
"Draw an Immonse circle. Call It
Industrial life. In the clrclp Is a con
trnl portion which represents tho In
dustries regulated by our govornmont.
Almost tho whole country Is plttod
against this part." So said Mr. John
Graham Brooks In n recont address
boforo'tho students or Michigan Uni
versity, on "Tho Socialist's Chnllongo
to Modern Socloty."
Mr, Brooks, as prosldont of tho Am
erlcan Social Sclenco Association, ad
dressed himself to tho studonts of the
present, for ho believes that from
thorn must come tho solution of tho
problem presented by our monopolies.
While not a socialist hlmsolf, ho
stated admirably and with all fair
ness tho condition of that party to tho
effect that all Industries to be Justly
administered must be owned and op
orated exclusively by tho govornmont
without nny idea of profits. Thon
ho proceeded to. show that there Is
another solution. Ho said:
"It would show tho blindness of a
bat to ignprotho fact that wo will not
take tho course other nations have.
Socialism Is tho only thing that sat
isfies the ideal of tho soul anil tho

elimination of wwrfuje, not Hjaugo
Pence Conferences, where they decide
that certain kinds of ammunition
shall dot bo used, but do not dare
consldor sorlousfy tho abolition of all,
armaments.
"Tho Socialists have made the dis
covery that our politics nro not some
thing apart from our business. -They
havo only to road the capitalist sheets,
or our president's messages to bollevo
that our country is in vory desperato
straits duo to'-the monopoly of a few
men. A conversation with tho late i
Colls, P. Huntington, tho groat -railroad
magnate .reveals our presqnt
situation. 'Wo nro not competent,' ho
snid, 'to run tho railroads in tho
United States, without groat casual
ties 'Why not?' I asked. 'Becse,
somehow wo havo gotten Into tho po
sition that our thirteen hundred thous
and employees feel that thoy need not
do their best, they feel that they aro
already worked too" hard.' 'What aro
wp going to'do about it then?' And the
answer , came, 'Tho government has
got to take them,'" T
Tho speaker went on to show that
this state of affairs Is duo to, our poli
