TEXAS STUDENTS BACK
Season Ticket at Southern
School Is Sold for
$10.50.
(From the Daily Texan.)
Payment of the student activity
fee (blanket tax) was quite popu
lar among old students who regist
ered Tuesday, according to reports
from the leaders of student activi
ties who watched the trend. This
was considered encouraging and an
evidence of appreciation of the sav
ing to be effected by the payment
of this fee, as the students who
have been to the university before
have had opportunity to consider
the value of the plan.
The activity ticket, which is sold
for $10.50. entitles the holder to
approximately $40 in admission to
all home athletic contests, to The
Daily Texan and the Longhorn
Magazine for the school year, and
admission to lyceum entertain
ments, Curtain Club plays. Glee
Club conceits, oratorical contests,
Longhorn band conceits and other
privileges.
The total cost of these various
attractions would be $52.50 if the
activity ticket was not purchased.
A complete program of activi
ties, musical events, concerts and
jspecial entertainment features are
being planned now by the organi
zations which participates in the
fee.
The Daily Texan is being deliv
ered to the entire student body at
this time and will be sent direct
to the residence of all blanket tax
payers. The first issue of the Long
horn Magazine will be distributed
at the end of registration line to
those who have paid the fee.
The activity fee is sponsored and
managedby the Students' Associa
tion, the organization of the entire
student body.

versity of Kansas, small losses in
four divisions and no change in one
are indicated by registration fig
ures announced today for the first
week of registration.
For the university as a whole,
the registration this year is 99.15
percent as large as it was last
year, and instead of the decrease
of some 10 percent anticipated in
the framing of budgets, the actual
decrease is but 85-100 of 1 percent.
At Lawrence, registration was
twenty-one fewer than a year ago,
and at Kansas City, Kas., there
are ten fewer enrolled in the nurs
ing courses. The official univers

The freshman class showed an
increase of fifty over that of a
year ago, and the number of stu

ing increased 130.
Detailed figures by schools
have not yet been given out, but
indications are that the college of
liberal arts, the school of pharm
acy, the school of medicine classes
at Lawrence and the school of
business all show increases. It is
stated that the business enroll
ment this year is the largest it
ever has been.
Decreases are indicated in the
graduate school, where for several
years there has been unusually
large increases; the school of engi
neering and architecture; the

What Other
Say About
Eiiltor'i note: Th following morles tak
en from the other university daily new,
pawn reveal what Is hems done by the
loileiie atuclent with regard to Uie Na
tional Recovery act.
(From the Dally Trojan, t
One indication that big corpora
tion are falling rapidly in line with
the program of the NRA is di
vulged in the report of the Univer
sity of Southern California em
ployment bureau, which reveals
that the major portion of the June
graduates of S. C. registered for
work have been placed during the
summer and especially during the
pastmonth. The report states:
"Revival of demand for engi
neers, low during the past three
years, is perhaps the most signifi
cant phase of the recovery activity.
It is evident that places have been
created by compliance with the
NRA code requirements, and grad
uates of '33, as well as of '32 and
'3i. trained in our professional
schools such as engineering, com
merce, architecture, journalism
merchandising and law are in de
mand." Students Work Part Time.
The employment bureau is locat
cd in the Student Union, and is
headquarters for placement of
working students as well as the
alumni.
Charles Boren, director, visits in
dustrial plants, business houses, fi
nancial organizations, film studios,
oil fields, manufacturing plants,
shops and stores to study how S.C
alumni may fit into the re-employment
program. Mrs. Jean Geis-
singer heads the office staff, and
Mrs. Erie Decker is in charge of
stuaent employment.
Summer Jobs.
"Many students who have work
ed during the summer at camps,
resorts, beaches, etc., have earned
sufficient to encourage them to
continue their college education,"
the report reveals. "Others hope
10 relieve me parental purse by
working part time this fall after
classes open as ushers or usher
ettes, tutors or translators, manne
quins or chauffeurs, proofreaders
or radio workers, and are already
registered for this purpose."
(From the Oklahoma Daily.)
Administrative approval of the
student NRA consumers' drive
scheduled to start Friday morning,
was voiced Monday afternoon by
President Bizzell.
"I am heartily in sympathy with
the recovery program and will co
operate with the consumers' drive
commiuee in every possible way, '
Bizzell said.
Attitude of Frank Cleckler, man
ager of the Union, could not be de
termined Monday because Cleckler
was away from Norman on a busi
ness trip. The Union establish
ments have not signed the NRA
pledge.
PLANS PROGRESSING.
Meanwhile, Mrs. J. E. Belcher,
county women's chairman, said
that pains for the drive were pro
gressing satisfactorily and that al
most a score of committee women
would be in campus buildings at
8 o'clock Friday morning with
complete supplies for student sign
ers. Final organization of the drive
to secure 5,000 student signatures
will be made at a meeting to be
held in the chamber of commerce
offices at 2:30 Thursday after
noon. Supplies will be distributed
to workers at that time, Mrs.
Belcher said.
Notified that President Bizzell
had officially endorsed the cam
paign, Mrs. J. L. Skelton, city
chairman of the recovery work,
said "I think it is mighty fine
for the administration to voice its
approval. We will be glad to
have all of the help we can get."
(From the Daily Calilornian.)
"With the NRA as a spearhead
we may batter our way to the
heights of human betterment.
Open your eyes to a new day!"
George Creel, NRA district ad
ministrator, thus challenged stu
dents and faculty members gath
ered to hear his address at the
"Blue Eagle" university meeting
held yesterday in celebration of
the completion of the campus
pledge campaign.
"Those who protest have no al
ternative to offer except 'let it
alone," declared Creel. "We dare
not let the NRA alone; we must
cure our ills for all time. The
NRA is not an emergency mea
sure. Its ultimate purpose is a
radical revolutionary reorganiza
tion of our whole industrial struc
ture." Co-operation Purpose of Adminis
tration Officials.
The two great purposes of the
administration, as outlined by the
speaker, are to substitute a co
operative order for the present
competitive regime, and to insti
tute a planned economy to sup
plant wasteful individualism.
"Small minorities can mock and
destroy the signers of our codes
unless they are brought in," Creel
exclaimed. "I say, take them by
the throat and choke the life out
of them if they do not obey. Any
business not contributing to the
public welfare must be destroyed."
Donald A. Breyer, '34. chairman
of the campus campaign, pre
sented Creel with the 7,000 pledges
made by university students dur
ing this week to support NRA
policies, and thanked "all Cali-

in introducing Creel, "It is the ob
ligation of university men and
women to aid in solving intelli
gently the crises of their world
particularly in the relations of
capital and labor, and the opera'
tion of agricultural lands."
Dr. Aurelia Reinhardt '98, presi'
dent of Mills college, gave the con
cluding address of the meetiug
stating that for the first time in
her life "economics" and "ethics"
are bring used as synonyms, giv
ing hope for the institution of a
new social philosophy.
"The New Covenant" was sug
gested by Dr. Reinhardt as better
stating the ideals and purpose of
the NRA than the Nev Deil, with
its suggestion of only fifty-two
cards in the deck, already well
shuffled.
Musical offerings were presented
by the A. S. U. C. band. The meet

By DR. A. S. LANG,

An affirmative answer to this
question depends upon at least two
things, concerning each of which
there may be honest doubt, mrst,
it depends upon how well the mass
es understand the nature and func
tioning of our complex economic
society. In the second place, the
answer depends upon now gener
ally we have accepted or shall
presently accept these principles
Are we raedy to sacrifice selfish
private gain, at least temporarily,
for widespread human betterment .'
Necessity for swift and drastic
economic change is now taken for
granted by the thoughtful. But the
discovery of truth is one thing; us
general acceptance is quite an
other.
The NRA is founded upon prin
ciples in the discovery of which the
colleges and universities have
played a leading part. Indeed, it
is the primary function of a uni
versity to extend the frontiers of
knowledge in every realm of hu
man interest. The principles em
bodied in the NRA have now ad
vanced beyond the academic stage
and are now matters of public pol
icy. However, in bringing to frui
tion the objectives of the NRA
those of us in college circles, stu
dents and faculty members alike,
have in common with all American
citizens the high responsibility and
privilege of fostering a new social
order less selfish and more human
itarian than the old.
About Individualism.
It is not easy for us to scrap
our traditional and highly-prized
individualism for social control,
but both theory and bitter experi
ence proclaim the necessity of do-
$4
95
ing Just that. The NRA now gives
us our first real opportunity at
economic planning on a new prin
ciple in the interest of human wel
fare. Unless, however, some funda
mental changes have or Rhall be
made in our thinglng tho NRA will
receive little more than lip service.
Unless and until the American
people revise their traditional atti
tude toward such propositions as
those listed below the successful
outcome of the new experiment in
economic planning remains doubt
ful. Be it said, however, that the
long depression has probably done
more to establish new social atti
tudes and new economic doctrine
than a whole generation of re
search and teaching by social sci
entists. Dr. Lang Cautious.
My cautions and carefully
hedged prophecy is that the NRA
will likely succeed if, as, and when i
w learn !
1. That rugged individualism had
come to mean ragged individuals.
2. That lasting prosperity is
neither an accident nor a decree of
fate. It is the result of wise human
planning.
3. That abiding prosperity is not
and cannot be generated by glow
ing optimism alone. Talking sun
shine does not necessarily bring it;
sunshine is the result of forces and
not of words.
4. That we should no longer be
misled into believing that natural
economic laws bar the path to eco
nomic reform and bring to naught
plans for promoting human wel
fare. Many tho not all. of our so
called economic laws have turned
out to be merely human arrange
ments. 5. That it is not necessarily ir
reverent or immoral to amend or
give new interpretations to tho
constitution in interest of human
ity. The constitution was made by
and for man; it may and should be
changed whenever and as often as
his interests demand it.
Taxing Important.
6. That the tax system is one of
our most potent forces in economic
planning. It may be used to deepen
poverty and s tifle welfare and
sound business prosperity.
7. That control of hours and
wages of labor, desirable as these
things are, without controlling
prices, cannot increase real wages.
8. That we are working at cross
purposes when we try thru short
ening hours and raising wages to
increase consumer purchasing
power, and then curtail consumer
purchasing power by the levy of a
tax on consumption, such as a
general sales tax. (exception is
made for certain selective sales
taxes).
