Well, la the destructive critic to be
so utterly condemned? Our answer
is most emphatically that he is not
to be condemned at all. He points
out error; he shows that we build on
false foundations. Must he be asked
to put up a new structure in place of
the one he destroys? Better perhaps
if he did, but even if he doesn't, he
remains a salutary influence. If an
irate husband should rap us on the
lowr jaw for becoming to intimate
with his wife, he would be destruc
tively critical. But we could
Ten Years Ago
Twenty-one players, including
Rutherford and Chamberlain, were
taken by Coach Stiehm to Iowa City
to meet the University of Iowa. The
struggle was to mark the end of the
season and if they won the game
they were to have as good a claim
to the national championship as any
team in the country, east or west
The regulars were all in good condl
tion. and confident of victory al

pests itself after a little sober
thought and rubbing of the criticized
jaw.
There is another quirk in the atti
tude of people toward the destruc
tive critic. Because he is merely
critical and suggests no remedies, he
. .
is iiowiea down as malicious aim
wicked. But what, do you suppose,
is in the minds of these ruthless des
tructive critics? Are they airing
grievances? Do they hold personal
erudces? These things may taint
the criticism, but they are not the
root of it The fact is destructive
critics have honest convictions and
an honest purpose.
But do people argue about the es
sential truth or falsity of the critic's
opinions? No, people reject it in
sum and substance because they put
no faith in the critic's motives. This
is wrong. Thus the people who dis
miss destructive critics become them-

the team must depend upon for
tional recognition, perhaps winning;
the next two games on the schedule I
will not mean much.
But team and students know that
with these two games credited to
Nebraska the team will deserve rec
ognition and will receive it at
least in the Missouri Valley confer
ence. Singing in classes Friday, a rally,
an extensive section of Nebraskans
at Manhattan, all would contribute
to the cause of achieving a claim
to the 1924 Missouri Valley title.
WAR GUILT.
Dr. Walter Aitken of St Paul
Methodist church presented the in
telligent, reasoning point of the
question of war guilt, and hence
reparations, to a group of students
at the World Forum luncheon Wed
nesday. There has long been doubt in the
minds of the American people that
the Germans were the "blond beasts"
that the more violent war propagan
da described. With this suspicion
went doubt of the sole guilt of Ger
many for the precipitation of the
world conflict that was halted six
years ago.
Dr. Aitken referred to an article
that placed the greatest guilt upon
Austria-Hungary. In order of re
sponsibility the other nations were
Russia, Germany or France, and
England. The group led by Sher
wood Eddy, with which he visited
Europe, accepted this classification,
Dr. Aitken indicated.
But there is danger of reaction.
Germany was to blame for the whole
catastrophe, public opinion asserted
when the armistice was a recently
signet! document The people have
been swinging with an accelerating
movement to the other extreme
they seem to be absolving the Ger
many of today of all guilt of ag
gression. Neither of these extreme opinions
are correct, obviously. And men like
Dr. Aitken represent the middle
course. Nevertheless, the order of
responsibility which places Austria
first, Russia second, and either Ger
many or France third, may not be
quite right Only one who was thor
ough'.; familiar with the intrigues
of the German, Austrian and Rus
sian courts in the years just before
the war could give a dependable list
of this sort More than an appear
at.ee of German domination of Aus
trian policies was evident in the sum
mer of 1914.
