Chalmers Graham ASSISTANT BUSINESS MANAGERS Bernard Jennings George Holyoke Frank Musgrava Exjwrienced Members on The. Student Council. 'THE Student council today will choose its holdover members for next year. These four mem bers of the council are selected each year for the purpose of pro viding a nucleus of experienced members in the new council. Cus tomarily, these four members be come the officers of the new coun cil. The responsibility for giving continuity to Student council ac tion from year to year rests upon them. It is this continuity of action which will make for the Student council a. place of respect and au thority on this campus. A hap hazard policy which undertakes a project one year and abandons it the next will never promote prog ress in the direction of greater discretionary powers for the stu dent governing body. The council is constitutionally restricted in its choice of holdover members to four. These four are usually picked as a result of their onigence during meir year oi serv ice on the council. But there are more than four diligent members of the council under ordinary cir cumstances. 'T'HE Nebraskan suggests, there- rore, mat some or the mem bers of the council who may be sincerely interested in the work of that organization, file for re-elec- tion this spring. There are four places on the council to be filled by seniors. From the group of junior men and women there are at least four besides those elected as holdover members, who could do the student body much service if re-elected next year. Faction lines need not necessar ily be heeded by the men. If their factions have already nominated a slate, it might be good precedent for these experienced council mem bers to file independently notwith standing. There is certainly no bar what soever to prevent present women members of the council from filing for re-election. The Nebraskan feels strongly that continuity of policy, which is best assured by the presence of experienced coun cilmen, is the most important con sideration for the council to keep in mind in all its actions. A few more experienced members of the council would aid greatly in up holding this continuity. Just a Bunch of Maimed Fools! pHUMPING the floor with their crutches, 8,000 veterans of the World war recently met in Geneva to present to the disarmament con ference, not an appeal, but a de mand for drastic armament reduc tions to insure peace.' The one American delegate who was pres ent was led to the stage since he had no eyes, and both his arms were off at the elbow. Thus mutilated, he was yet able to talk, and be used his voice to , THE DAILY Nvnokcv THE DAILY NEBRASKA address the assemblage in a vto' lnnt renunciation of those who idealized war. Politicians who snond their time dickering over formulas for disarmament, ana making grandiose speeches about 'peace" and "good will" were par ticular targets for his attack. Said one of the French veteran delegates in a bitter tirade upon the methods used by diplomats to achieve disarmament: "It matters little to us that the homes wherein we live should be threatened by aircraft of one motor or of three. It matters little whether men should be killed by 75s or 105s, or whether their lungs are eaten away by yellow or green gas." What does matter, he said, is that no homes be threatened by air craft of any kind, that no men be killed by shells of any size, and that men's lungs be eaten away by no gas of any description. O NE delegate from the entire assemblage of foreign diplo mats assembled at Geneva for the international disarmament confer ence was present to hear these pleas. But three days after the veterans had adjourned the dis armament delegates returned and started discussions on the question of limiting tanks to sixteen tons. Ah well. What did these vet erans know about diplomacy : Their views on war were preju diced because most of them had lost limbs or eyes, or parts of their faces, or had been gassed. Natu rally they were inclined to place too much attention on the horrors of war and neglect the considera tion of such vital factors as the necessity for every, nation to up hold its bargaining advantages They forgot that certain commer cial advantages must be main tained at all costs. They simply overlooked the fact that certain vested armament and military in terests cannot be dealt with in any summary fashion so as to deprive them of any material advantages. The poor devils were probably little nutty shell shocked. Paying Money for Being Lazy, OOINTING to the impossibility of getting out a very large vote at any student election, a let' ter to the editor received recently suggests a "New Deal" for the university. The necessity for stir ring up the student lethargy on the campus seems so great, that the author suggests the startling pro posal that a fifty cent charge be made each semester on every stu- dent which will be refunded to him if and when he votes at a student election. "I know," says the writer, "that many of you dyed-in-the-wool con servatives will raise your voices in surprise and disgust at this pro posal. You have too often done so in the past. I candidly admit that there are certain defects to the plan, but do not the merits of the 'new deal' outweigh by far the de fects? It would be entirely a tem porary and passing system. When the student body has once been fully awakened from its sluggish lethargy and is alive to the many gains to be derived by wholeheart ed co-operation and united effort, the system would become unneces sary and could be abolished." THE Nebraskan heartily ap- f,u, me spini wnicn prompts the writer of this suggestion. Un fortunately, however, we do rot believe- that the situation can be considered so tremendously impor tant as to justify forcing every student to vote. Perhaps a more intelligent student vote is secured when only those who are interested do the voting. After all, the privi- lege of voting is supposed to be a privilege, and if the lack of inter est becomes too great, the remedy Use good cars on your spring trips. We have them I Cut prices for all occasions. MOTOR OUT COMPANY 1120 P Street B6619 may be simply the abandonment of all student functions of a demo cratic nature. Ordinarily the issues at stake in a campus election are hardly wor thy of being deemed of enormous importance. Even so, the univer sity students are showing approxi mately the same degree of interest in their own affairs as the citizens of the United States show in the affairs of their government which ate of vastly greater importance. Sometimes a radical suggestion stirs up a little interest, anyway. So if you are one of the sluggards, take notice of the fact that you are on the spot. Once in a while some important issue is at stake, and if there were more interest in elections, it is highly possible that there would be more important is sues. CUSTOMS HAVE VALUE IN OTDE CORPS' LeRossignol Declares Bizad Day College Tradition Since 1920. Traditions are of great value in maintaining the 'esprit de corps' of the colleee, declared Professor LeRossignol, dean or the college or business administration, in com menting upon the Bizad Field day to be held Friday. May 5, at Antelope park. "The Bizad Field day is one of the traditions of the college. It had its beginning in the spring ot 1920, the same year in which the college of business administration was es tablished. It has been observed each year since and should be con tinued. It gives the faculty and the students a chance to meet outside the college walls and it creates a college spirit which at the same time is a creation of university spirit." Following the lunchean at noon there will be matches in golf, ten nis, baseball, and horseshoes. There will be a baseball game be tween the faculty and the students as well as one between the two professional business administra tion fraternities, Alpha Kappa Psi and Delta Sigma Pi. Entries for the contests may be placed on the Commercial club bulletin board on the third floor of Social Science. Leo Beck and his orchestra will play from 2:30 till 5 in the after noon. Tho the field day is primarily for the business administration col lege, students in other colleges are welcome to participate in the ac tivities. Tickets for the field day which includes the luncheon and dancing may be purchased from salesmen or at the booth in Social Science hall for 50 cents. Students wishing only to dance may secure tickets for 25 cents per couple. All classes after 11 on Friday. May 5 are excused.
