of the various sorority and rooming

"It is necessary to pledge one thou

with other schools over the country,"
stated Barbara Wiggenhorn, sopho
more member of the W. S. G. A. board.
"The Women's Self Government Asso
ciation is a national organization, rep
resented in all the largest schools in
the country, and Nebraska, we are
sorry to say, has been r.ne of i's small
est chapters. It is hard to understand
this because Nebraska ranks so high
among other schools in all other ac
tivities. Perhaps not enough stress
has been laid upon its Importance bt
tore. But at any rate, this year must
mark a change. Students should real
ize what it means, not only to them
selves, but also to Nebraska as a
whole. That is the true Cornhusker
spirit. Locally, a membership gives a
girl the privilege of voting and help
ing a girl thru school. Nationally, it
puts Nebraska University on the map,
so to speak, and in the same class
with the best school of the country.
Every girl that joins Is doing her bit
to push Nebraska in the front ranks.
Every 50 cents counts." she continued.
The W. S. G. A. is the biggest wom
en's organization on the campus and
fosters such events as the GirU' Corn
hiicker luncheon,- and tbe annual Girls'
Cornhusker party, and has for its
prime purpose the governing of women
in tbe sorority and rooming hoiiss.

ASSEMBLE FUNDS FOR
Money Now Eeing Gathered by
Professor and Mrs. Wallace
in Texas Oil Fields.
The basis for the "American Foun
dation for Research" has become so
firmly established that it is safe to
guess that it will soon oe a well-
known institution. The object of tin
foundation will be the study of early
English literature, dealing principally
with the works of William Shake
speare. Professor and Mrs. C. W.
Wallace have been accumulating the
money for the endowment found con
sisting of more than a million dollars
in the oil fields of Texas. The hold
ings,- at present, are so extensive that
the Wallaces will undoubtedly an
nounce their completed plans within
the near future.
Mr. Wallace first came to Lincoln
with the Western Normal College.
Later he became connected with the
University and it was then that he
took up the study of Shakespeare. His
wife was much interested in the same
work and was well-equipped to assist
him when they later undertook the ex
amination of the Shakespearean docu
ments which were found in London.
Until the war ended their efforts, they
examined approximately five million
original records. In the four works
the a ready for publishing some un
usual discoveries dealing with their
investigations were disclosed.
(it order to obtain money with which
to carry on his studies Professor Wa!
lace turned to the Texas oil fields
Work in geology had always interested
him and in this business he felt he
would be able to become wealthy with
out draining money from the pockets
of anyone. At this time he entered
into partnership with Samuel J. Bell,
and together they were able to pro-
due a smaU fortune. Then Professo
Wallace, with his wife as a partner,
proceeded further In the oil business.
For four years they have been
obliged to undergo all th hardship:.
2nd privations such a life involves;
yet they have held their hope of a re
search foundation always before them
and are now well repaid for it Is al
most a reality. Dr. Wallace conducts
all the prospects and developments
personally. After a well has been
found he puts a reliable man in charge
and sells the output to some com-
rany. At present the Wallace com
bination controls between forty-five
and fifty wells which yield varying
amounts of oil.
When the plans of the American
Foundation for Research are finally
completed they will involve a storv
well worthy of attention. It Is not
yet announced whether this will be a
University of Nebraska or a national
foundation.

BENGSTQN LPEAKS 10
Ciles Prospects in Latin-America
ai Offering a Big Opportunity
fcr American Engineers.
"North of Argentina, practically
all of Latin-America is undeveloped,"
Ha ied Professor N. A. Bengston, of
the department of geography, to
fieshmen engineers in their regular
convocation, Monday at five, in M.
E. 206. "This circumstance not only
.3 an opportunity to American.
but is also creates a heavy responsi
bility for them. A complete read
justment that has come about since
I was in your place in an Incredibly
short time has changed the United
States from a debtor nation to a
creditor. This means that we will be
the principal investing nation In
foreign properties in the future, and
we must seek the best us for our
captal. The American engineers
who enter these countries must al
ways have adaptability and 'initio
live, and they should have executive
ability. We do far more business
v.ilh Central America than any other
country."
Just leturned from a trip through
.iuateaiala and Honduras in Central
Vmerica, Professor Bengston was able
:o show seme sides of actual life in
those nations. He emphasized his
xpe: iencei iu Honduras especially,
ijt-t auhe it is the least known and the
least developed, having no coast to
coast railway. AH this, he said, was
because of tLe lack of influence from
American capital although Che coun
try is only lour days freni New Or
leans. "To i a:'.: the remote corners of
t':c iand, whose aiea is only 47.,-'Ju
square wilts, two weeks on ma.e
back is an ordinary journey. Hon
duras is so completely isolated thai
during the world influenza epidemic
in 191S, it was untouched," he con
tinued. "We must remember tha'.
these people are not lazy. They d J
the hardest kind of work. They are
merely slow, inefficient. The most
modern farm equipment I saw amoi.g
the natives was an old plow t:rawn
by oxen. They usually hide their
title's to avoid theft of the crop. The
field is cleared by burning, and the
corn planted among the fallen logs
by dropping seed Into holes made by
shoving sharp sticks into the ground.
"Native labor Is riuicluolusly low
priced. We paid our men twenty
five cents a day; they worked four
teen hours, and they provided their
own board. In the more remote sec
tions the jungle is so thick that a
penetration of six or seven feet cuts
you off from everything. The na
tives' only paths are the numerous
waterways, and their lives depend
upon their skill as boatsmen. In
many places there are no places Im
provements over the living condi
tions of 1402. The natives speak
their own tribal tongues. The houses
are merely coverings of broad leaves
supported on poles, and the principal
foods ar bananus and fish. If they
cannot afford clothes for the whole
family, the unfortunate ones simply
go without."
"More sympathy for those whose
modes of living and whose Ideals
are not ours a more Kinciiy ieeiiim
for th natives Is something that
Americans must put more stress
upon. Any definite antipathy for
American can always be traced back
to the first comers who were cruel,
the American is esteemed and ad
Inconsiderate or dishonest. Where
mired, the pioneers have been sympa
thetic and helpful to the people."

LIBBY ADDRESSES
CONVOCATION 01
WHO PREVENTION
Executive Secretary of National
Council Talks to University
Students.
WAR IS UNNECESSARY
Names Three Points Needed for
Complete Abolishment of
Arms.
"We have got to abolish war
whether we can or not" and "We can
abolish war because we must" de
clared Frederick J. Libby, executive
secretary of the National Council for
the Reduction of Armaments, which is
now termed the National Council for
the Prevention of War, In an address
to University students and faculty In
the Temple theater at 11 o'clock con
vocation Tuesday morning.
In speaking on "Limitation of Arm
aments," Mr. Libby argued for the
prevention of all further wars. He
said that the next war will be a war
against civilization, and the first day
of that war as many men, women and
children will be blotted out as were
killed in the entire four years of the
past war, because the next will be a
wholesale war. . It will be fought in
the air and with gas, and one such
raid could wipe out all London in
three hours, the speaker quoted
Thomas Edison as having declared.
Next War Against Civilization.
Mr. Libby said that military men
are confident that the next war will
be against civilization, and quoted
these words of General Pershing: "If
we cannot abolish war it will seem
that civilization has reached the point
where it will destroy itself."
"People say we can't abolish war,
but we can abolish it because we must.
'Impossible' is no word for our mod
ern times. The impossible is done
when there is the will.
"We are mad If we do not prevent
var. But how can we prevent It?
Men have always wanted to prevent
war. It cannot be done by sentiment,
wishes or prayers alone, but by an
ntel'igent, practical effort along clear
ly discerned lines. We can do it if
we work together, know what we are
lo'ng, and do it step by step."
Program for Prevention.
The Council for the Prevention of
War has worked out a three-plank pro
gram for the prevention of war. The
ihree planks are:
1. A world organization, under any
name.
2. World-wide reduction of arma
iiients to a police status, denying
kings armies to play with.
.1. Wprld-wide education for better
nternational understanding.
The name of the world organiza
tion dr,3.s not matter, Mr. Libby said.
(Moth political parties are committed
o the issue, arid the next thing to
io is to keep It from becoming the
football of politics.
Differences Need Not Cause War.
The only institution today for tho
settlement of differences is war.
Many people say that before war tan
be abolished the causes of war. dis
pits must be abolished. Mr. Libby
bowed, by using the examples of
"anada and this nation that the causc
if war do not have to be removed to
do away with war. There always will
be differences, yet they need not brinr
v.-a.
War is an Institution, and as such
it can be abolished without changing
human nature, when a better Institu
tion can be set up In Its place. Slav
ery and the saloon were institutions
and they were abolished witnmi.
changing human nature.
As to reduction of armaments to a
police status. Mr. Libby showed that
America leads the rest of the world
by her great financial power, with
which she holds' tho destinies of the
wor'd In the hollow of her hand. If
America uses her Immense financial
ability to build ships, other nations
will feel they have to do the same to
keep up. If America reduces her mili
tary expenditures, the other nations
will be happy to follow her example.
Five Points for Peace.
The speaker emphasized Herbert
Hoover's five points for peace, tho
basis on which Europe can come back.
The five points are:
1. Disarmament.
2. Reduction of the German repara
tion to an amount she can pay. Ten
millions Is the highest she can pos
sibly pay, and the reparation Is now
spI at thirty-three millions.
3. Making the budgets of European
countries balance, so they may cut ex
penditures rather than Increase taxes.
4. Bringing money back to a fixed
gold basis. '
5. Reduction of trade barriers.

FRESHMEN LEARN
USE OF LIBRARY
Professor M. G. Wyer, Librarian,
Gives Third Freshmen
Lecture.
"The Use of the Library" was the
subject of the third freshmen lecture
of the semester, given by Professor
M. G. Wyer, librarian of the Univer
sity, Monday evening. Besides the
general library in the Library build
ing, there Is an agricultural library, an
engineering library, a law library, and
a Teachers' College high school li
brary. The total number of volumes in
these combined libraries, according to
! Professor Wyer, is 170,000. The li
j brary Is being added to at the rate ci
from 7,000 to 10,000 books a year.
From each department in the Uni
versity a professor reads the books
printed each year, along the special
line of that department, and recom
mends the best of the books for pur
chase by the library. In this way,
Professor Wyer explained, the library
was sure to get the best books printed
each year on technical subjects.
The University library is always on
the market for books. Professor Wyer
declared that it maintained purchas
ing agents not only in this country,
but in London, Paris and Berlin.
The professor described some of th?
rare books that the University pos
sesses. These include a fourth edi-
I tion of Shakespeare's plays printed in
16S5, a copy of the first edition of
Samtfel Johnson's dictionary of tha
English language, printed in 1755. The
library also has a copy of one pnge
of the Guttenburg Bible, the first
book ever printed by movable type.
The original Bibla recently sold for
$50,000, according to Professor Wyer.
In describing the character of the
various libraries, Professor Wyer ex
plained that the agricultural library,
the law library', the engineering li
brary and the medical library contain
books of a technical character.
Professor Wyer also explained to the
freshmen where they would find th?
reference desk, the reserv desk and
the card catalogue in the library.

SERVICES T VESPERS
Annual Y. W. C. A. Candle-Lighi-ing
Services at Ellen Smith
Hall Tuesday.
The Y. W. C. A. held its annual candle-lighting
service with impressive
solemnity at vespers Tuesday evening
U 5 o'clock at Ellen Smith Ha'.l. A
hymn by the vesper choir, a prayer
and the scripture reading were fol
lowed by a soprano solo, "The Lord
Is My Shepherd," by Eula Winter.
Mrs. Roy Greene, a former Y. W. C.
A. secretary, spoke on ' Following
Jesus Christ." Jeanette Cook, who
led. lighted the large white candles
from which each girl lighted her small
candle. The flame was a symbol cf
the divine light of Jesus in the hearts
of the girls. At the close of the can
dle-lighting the girls read the purpose
in unison and a few minutes were de
voted to silent prayer. The choir
formed a line on each side of the ves
tibule and the girls marched out be
tween them. The candles were not ex
tingitished until the girls were out
side. "It is beautiful and awful to stop
and think here at the beginning of
the year what the Y. W. C. A. is, and
why you belong to it," began Mrs.
Greene. "Did you join because some
one told you to? Did you join be
cause of the widespread opinion that
you ought to belong to the Y. W. C.
A.? Or did you join because you had
In mind the last item in the Nebraska
girls cred which says that religion
should have some place in the life of
the Nebraska girl?
"I wonder if you realize that the
Y. W. C. A. is one of the few places
on the campus where spiritual devel
opment is fostered. Its purpose !
world wide; girls in China and Japan
are striving to do the same things you
are. The Y. W. C. A. is trying to
make the will of Christ effective iu
society," she stated. "When you join
the Y. W. C. A. you declare your pur
pose to live as a true follower of th?
Lord Jesus Christ. That means lcj
Ir.g the sort of person Christ was. The
New Testament tells of Him as a man
gentle and forgiving, yet capable of
stinging anger; He was endowed wu:i
the greatest power, yet He kept it un-
ler perfect control; He was affection
ate, yet lie endured the most severe
physical and mental pain; He was
humble, yel He had the mo.it supreme
self-confidence the world has ever
known.
If you live as a follower of Chris.
you will learn to put first those things
which are first. You will accept this
activity as worth while to you and
discriminate against the ones which
are not. You will pick and choose an'.
not become entangled in everythinz.
Someone has said that every book yon
read, you lose a chance to read an
other. You must pick and choose,
Mrs. Green emphasized. "The Y. W.
C. A. is not a place to piunge into ac
ivites. Yc.ur life ,-s a follower oi
Christ will not be entirely easy. i
will mean hard work, self control and
endurance to the point of exhaustion.
But It will bring you a life of beauty
and friends and love."
Mrs. Greene told the story of Peter
and John and the lame man, and
quoted what she considered the mo"t
significant verse of the passage, "Peo
