ON THE LAST day of the art
exhibit of the Nebraska Art as
sociation, last Sunday, Professor
Paul Grummann of Omaha was

Morrill hall and Professor Grum
man spoke at 3:30 in the afternoon.
Peace of World Menaced So Long as
Munition Makers Not MuffledHill
Nations More Heavily Armed
Than in 1914 States
Professor.
"Unless nations are able to muf
fle munition makers and to com
promise their own differences, the
present armaments race, which is
assuming greater proportions than
anything which has ever preceded
it, is likely to continue consum
ing billions of dollars and menac
ing the peace of the world," Nor
man L. Hill, professor of political
science, stated in an article in the
Sunday Journal-Star.
"During the last few months
vents have been pointing toward
a new armaments race," Professor
Hill continued, "Particularly as
several of the powers have not yet
reached the limits placed upon
them by the Washington treaty of
1022 and the London treaty of
1930 and therefore are in a posi
tion to inaugurate a new era of
competition by bringing their arm
aments up to the prescribed max
ima. Until 1936 the nations will
be restricted by the existing trea
ty provisions, but thereafter they
will have a free hand unless, in the
meantime, a new treaty us nego
tiated," Dr. HiU added.
More Heavily Armed.
At the present time the nations
of the world are more heavily
armed than thy were in the cru
cial year of 1914 and the contem
porary building programs will tend
to increase the amount to a stag
gering total, HIU indicated.
"The true significance of this
becomes all the more apparent
when one reflects on the fact that
the nations, skeptical of the utility
of heavy capital ships, have been
specializing since 1922 in cruisers
and lighter craft," Dr. Hill said.
Implying that perhaps the main
stimulus for the new armaments
race was provided by the failure of
the world disarmament conference
and by the International conditions
In Europe and the Far East which
contributed to the inability of that
conference to conclude a treaty,
Prof. Hill went on to state that
the conference or rather Its steer
ing committee has striven tena
ciously, but in vain, to find a for
mula for disarmament.
"Because the failure of the con
ference has become more widely
acknowledged,' the nations . have
listened with renewed interest to
the perennial cries, of . militarist
groups for an enlargement of na
tional df-fense programs and have
as a result increased the regular
appropriation . bills in the respec-1
tive countries to almost stupend
ous proportions," he said.
Navy May Cost $500,000,000.
Hill declared that if the execu
tion of the present program car
led out during the next five years
in tne United States, as Intended,
it would create for us the largest
peace-time navy in history, main
tenance of which would run at an
annual cost of about $500,000,000.
Other nations are taking similar
measures and, according to Dr.
Hill, these policies in reality pre
sent a very serious menace to the
peace of the world.
"Nations rise instinctively to the
defense of cherished ideas but even
when hesitant, manufacturers of
munitions with powerful lobbies,
'ho have excellent reasons for
aligning themselves with those
who believe that to prepare for
war is to avert it, prod them
along."
"Therefore unless nations are
able to muffle these munitionmak-
ers and to compromise their own
differences, the present race is
most likely to continue, consuming
billions of dollars and seriously
menacing the peace of the world,"
Dr. Hill concluded.
"Good order and justice that is
the religion of democracy," Dr.
William L. Bryan, president of In
diana university, declared recently.
A serum that is claimed to be a
100 percent cure for whooping
cough has been perfected by Prof.
Louis W. Sauer of the University
of Chicago medical school.

150 STUDENTS HEAR
MONROE LECTURE ON
SINGLE TAX SYSTEM
Speaker States Plan Would
Put World Back at
Full Play.
One hundred and fifty univer
sity students heard John Lawrence
Monroe of Chicago, director of the
Henry George Lecture association,
discuss "Taxation and Our Eco
nomic Crisis" at convocation
held in Social Science auditorium
yesterday morning. Dean J. E.
LeRossignol presided.
Advancing the single tax as a
solution for our taxation difficul
ties, Monroe believes that "the
single tax will put the world back
to work at full time and full pay."
He explained that the single tax
would relieve the tax burden on
agriculture and industry, and end
land speculation, by taxing the
value that the community contrib
utes to the land, and not the im
provements which the owner adds
himself.
Penalizes Production.
"Industrial depression and un
employment are the inevitable
consequences of our tax system
which penalizes production and
encourages land speculation." Mr.
encourages land speculation."

farm land artificially high in price
with the result that the natural
opportunities for business and em
ployment are withdrawn from the
use of the people.
Until the burden of taxation is
removed from the shoulders of the
nation's wealth - producers " and
placed where it belongs, on the
community created land values, he
maintains that great agricultural
and industrial prosperity will never
be known.
'Tool of Tyrants'
He describes the sales tax as
"the tool of tyrants" and says
that it should never be resorted to
by a free people. "The sales tax
raises prices and adds to the cost
of living, It is a. discrimination
against the poor in favor of the
rich. Those whose incomes are
low, and spend all they make, pay
the highest rate on their incomes,"
he contends.
Mr. Monroe does not believe that
welfare of agriculture would be
promoted by untaxing land values,
either wholly or partly. He says
that this removal would encourage
the holding of land by speculators
and non-users.
