'A Thanksgiving
Of Hope.
There may be some who will
find cause for thanksgiving- this
year in the thought that things
might be worse than they are. For
most of us the real cases of dire
want and distress are remote.
There is a more or less general
knowledge that some individuals
and families actually have noth
ing, but the knowledge of their
suffering is beyond the intimate
contact of most of us.
The average? American familv
and the average university student

depression. There are comforts of j
me to wmca uiey cave oeen
customed which they are now do- i
ing without It is something of a :
sacrifice, but for the most part it
involves no interruption of the
normal course of life; it involves
no real suffering.
These people are apparently
taking their sacrifices philosophic
ally and thinking that it is just a
matter of time until another pe
riod of prosperity brings back to
them the material enjoyments
which they are temporarily fore
going. And even the actual suf
ferers in this depression no doubt
are applying the balm of hope of
better times to their distress. Poli
ticians and would-be economists
are propounding schemes which
they think or piously hope will
hasten the return of prosperity.
And little thought is given to
the fact that the same old cycle
will repeat itself as it has times
without number in the past The
same old remedies are being pro
posed to bring back the Fame old
kind of prosperity which has in it
the seeds of the same old kind of
depression all over again. Beyond
the next era of plenty the policy
formers do not look.
The real cause for hope lies in
the fact that a few individuals
have some conception of the fact
that we cannot continue to oper
ate on a string of short-sighted
policies. The need for far-sighted
leconomic planning and organiza
tion has become increasingly ap
parent To those who have really
ttudied the question, such pana
ceas as issuing paper money or
tinkering with the tariff present
no hope for actual advancement
A symposium of ideas of recog
nized economists by some one fa
miliar with their beliefs would,
we believe, reveal a general ten
dency to favor increasing control
by the government over banks, or
ganized markets, and other eco
nomic agencies. Such a tendency
is socialistic, involving as it does
new agencies of centralized gov
ernment control.
There seem to be valid dour.ts
about increasing governmental
tasks, but the intelligent observer
ft conditions as they are cannot j
fail to realize that without some ,
f'im of control, the sam- '. V.1 '
orgies of speculation, over-production,
and over-borrowing and lend
ing will for a short time restore
to the country and the world the
much vaunted prosperity, and then
eventually sink us into another pit
of depression.
While there may be other fac
tors involved in our present con
dition besides the unintelligent ac
tions of the people themselves
through their economic institu
tions there fs reason to fee! that
improvement is possible provided
there is a willingness on the part
of government officials to look be
yond the near future and even per
haps to break slightly with tradi
tional "individualism."
If there be cause for thanksgiv
ing in these general conditions of
adversity, lot it be in the hope that
adversity has awakened in the
minds of American people and
their leaders a knowledge that
permanent prosperity is dependent
on the adoption of far-sighted poli
cies and that there will be leaders
who will rise to the situation and
play the parts of statesmen with
eyes on hoiizuiis further off than
1936.
The Indications
.ire Good.
With the announcement of plans
for running off a basketball tour
nament for barb students, the In
terclub council of unaffiliated stu
dents made the most constructive
move it has yet taken Monday eve
ning. Simultaneously the group
announced plans for a joint party
with some women's group on the
campus.
It is true that the barbs have

incentives for continued
But more important in making
secure the future permanence of
the barb organization is the pro
vision for the social and intra
mural sport activity of the mem
bers. A campus organization
whose chief aim is political office
taking is subject to more instabil
ity than one which has other in
terests of a more permanent
nature.
The organization is by no means
secure in its future yet. But the
steps being taken indicate that the
leaders of the organization are not
attempting to build a political ma
chine for their own exploitation.
Appearances point to a sincere ef
fort on the part of the participants
of the organization to provide the
things which have been lacking for
many unaffiliated students, name
ly opportunities to take part in
every kind of student activity for
which organization is necessary.
The barbs have not yet taken
full advantage of the opportunity
to organize themselves into small
groups which can in turn affiliate
with the central body, the Inter
club council. The success of the
project undertaken Monday night
should mean a lot for the perma
nence of the organization and also
for its ability to attract more un
affiliated students to recognize
and actively affiliate with it.
Student Opinion
Still Welcome.
The Nebraskan's reduced size, it
is true, makes impossible the pub
lication of student expressions of
opinion unless they are exception
ally good. Such student letters as
do not merit reprinting may nev
ertheless contain ideas which will
be helpful to the editorial staff or
may be used in part as substance
for editorials.
The editorial staff knows what
it thinks about certain subjects of
student interest, but it would like
to know what some other students
tiiink. How do students feel about
joint use of the swimming pool;
about the adoption of a fctudc-tt
activity tax on this campus; about
the use of the Coliseum for fra-
terr.ity and ;,ioriy parties, such j
Why Not All-American Thanksgiving
Menu? Asks Dr. Pool, Botany Chairman
"AH American selections should
not be confined to football teams,
or even to athletics," That is the
opinion of Dr. R. J. Pool, chair
man of the Botany department,
and so he selected an All America
Thanksgiving menu.
Dr. Pool thinks that all legal
holidays should be rightfully ob
served, and he at first planned his
Thanksgiving lecture about the bi
ology of the dinner. He then de
cided to show how a dinner could
be planned using all native Amer
ican products, and since Thanks
giving is a day of football games,
he arranged his menu in the form
of an All American football team.
Here it is:
Center Turkey
Right Guard ..White Potatoes
Right Tackle Corn Bread
Right End Pumpkin Pie
Left Guard Sweet Potatoes
Left Tackle Lima Beans
Left End Cranberries
Quarterback Plum Pudding
Right Halfback Red Pepper
Left Halfback Tobacco
Fullback Hot Chocolate
Dr. Pool defends his selection by
showing how each position is filled
by something that is distinctively
American and of a quality that
should be possessed by a holder of
the position he has given it.

than one group: about the newly
created student forum commission
and what it should try to do; and
about any number of other ques

time to time in these columns.

The line is composed of ancient
and honorable ingredients, excel
lent food, well built and able to
stand punishment, he declared.
The turkey, w hich is at center, is a
native American bird. It was found
wild here when the colonists ar
rived. White potatoes, holders of
the right guard position, are not
Irish, as many people think, but of
American origin. Corn bread is dis
tinctively American as is pumpkin
pie. Sweet potatoes are South Am
erican products, while lima beans
and cranberries are found in North
America.
Backfield.
The members of the backfield
should have unusual accomplish
ments, especially the quarterback.
So Dr. Pool selects plum pudding.
At right half, he puts red pepper,
a firery American product. To
bacco is a respected member of the
American family, so it goes at left
half. Coffee is not American, and
therefore does not get a position
on the eleven. In its place, Dr. Pool
puts hot chocolate, a popular Am
erican beverage.
If substitutes should be needed,
oysters might "go in" for turkey
at center during the second half.
Candy might get a position on the
line, and nuts, walnuts or hickory
nuts, in the backfield. All are Am
erican products.

"Kosmet Klub can assure the

Thanksgiving revues it has ever

of the Klub, declared yesterday.
"A great amount of time and ef
fort has been expended this year
to prepare a really fine program
of entertainment."
