Gullibility and
Commercialism.
It seems that there is a group
Wild men on the rampage in the United States. We
venture to say that such addle-pated action that
has been taken in the past few months on the part
of so-called national leaders has not been perpe
trated for years. Educational institutions are being
forced to suffer considerably, and administrative
officers of such institutions hsve been performing
equally foolish stunts in an attempt to avoid dis
comfort. Five student editors have been put out of office
toy university authorities this year. They were fired
because of their anti-war editorials, editorials de
nouncing despotism and dictation of men in power,
and for mere conjecture about what will become
of & world as chaotic as our modern sphere. Isn't
it rather paradoxical that several universities In
this "land of the free, and home of the brave" have
expelled students for thinking, when schools exist
for the express purpose of teaching students to
think independently?
Suppressive action on the part of the university
authorities is doing more harm to the American uni
versity today than could possibly result from com
bined action of minority radical groups. If admin
istrators would reflect for a while on the university
and its aims, they and their institutions would be
better off than at present.
William Randolph Hearst has been Increasing
his circulation and reputation of late by launching
an anti-Communist drive thru his various and blar
ing editorial pages. What his aims are is a mat
ter of doubt It seems, however, that his claims
don't hold much water as actualities. General
belief has it that Hearst is merely a newspaperman
attempting to satisfy public and human thirst for
the sensational. The danger of the whole campaign
lies in the fact that law-makers are taking the Sage
of San Simeon seriously, and are all too likely to
enact legislation of a suppressive and anti-social
nature.
The New York legislature has passed a law
compelling teachers to swear allegiance to the
United States constitution. The Hearst press has
proceeded in its own subtle way to define allegiance
and loyalty, and is attempting to force its defini
tions on educational institutions. As the Indiana
Daily Student has pointed out, Mr. William Ran
dolph Hearst should be reminded that when one re
peats the pledge of this nation he states, "one na
tion, indivisible, with LIBERTY and JUSTICE for
all." Mr. Hearst is actually advocating re-enactment
of Alien and Sedition acts. Allen and Sedition
acts were passed back in 1798 and caused a sad
state of affairs. The party responsible for their en
actment, the Federalist party, fell as a direct result

Anyone who would say that
Huey Long, that remarkable gen
tleman from Louisiana, is the epit
ome of good government would
promptly receive the wholehearted
condemnation of most citizens of
the United States, and perhaps
rightly. However, there are certain
things which he has done which
have been of the greatest value to
the people he represents. Critics
of the "Hitler of the South," if they
consider themselves fair-minded,
should not lose sight of them.
Huey Long has Increased the
number of rural schools three or
four fold, and has improved condi
tions in those which existed prior
to the advent of his control of
state politics.
Huey Long has built for his con
stituents miles of first-class high
ways, an unprecedented action in
his state. '
. Huey Long, thru a decision of
the Supreme Court, won for the
citizenry of Louisiana the profits
to be secured from the oil fields
In the western part of the state.
Huey Long, through his "share
the wealth" program, has reduced
the tax burden for those who can
least afford to stand it
The methods which Long vised
to acquire his power and influence
are certainly not above board. He
is no better than Tammany In this
respect He has been accused of
receiving large amounts of graft
and according to reports, the fed
eral roverxunent is attempting to
stymie the Delta exhibitionist by

Written as colorfully as any of his many novels,
Sir Philip Glbbs' new "European Journey" is an
admirable piece of reporting. (In fact, it is prefer
able to all his novels put together, with one of H. G.
Wells' thrown in.) It is true that Glbbs Is unable
to forget that he is a novelist and sometimes records
conversations which seem a little doubtful, but one
does not mind that, for the European affairs of
which he writes
selves.
In "European
of the French Stavlsky Scandal, the sordid details
of hare-brained
of the Continent's unemployment, the sordid de
tails of the building of the new Palace of Nations,
the sordid details of the manufacture of armaments
not through the eyes of statesmen, but through
the eyes of the common folk of Europe. Surely
Glbbs Is justified in imagining an amusing peasant
or two to make this sad fare palatable.
Glbbs was in
Even then, of course, the plebiscite was what every
one thought of and talked of. Hitler's scarlet ban
ner was the Swastika in a white circle hung in al
most every shop regarded as the national colors.
"Ninety per cent
with Germany,"
long to Germany in blood and soul." But a middle
aged man thought otherwise: "Why should we vote
to go back to Germany and put our neck In chains ?
Why should we give up our liberty to live under the
rule of cut-throats and bullies those Nazi Storm
Troopers?" There, Gibbs though to himself, is a
man of courage, a man who will be dead before I
come to the Saar again. "It was not safe to talk
like that in Saarbrucken."
One of the
pean Journey" is
conversation with
of the League of
hospital for the wounded of the next war," said one
of the workers. "This is a barracks . . . ready for
occupation by the Germans when they march this
way," another told Gibbs.
There is no
ing love to Soviet
the coming war. Soviet Russia is allowing France
to make love to her because French armies may
come to her aid in a war with Japan. Italy afraid
of Germany united to Austria with a frontier on the
Brenner is supporting Austrian independence with
money, increasing
and with promises of armed support. The munitions
factories of Czecho-Slovakia are working overtime."
And this goes on
clusion. He observes that we must all be mad, de
spite his feeling
with casual wayside acquaintances. He also inti
mates that war is inevitable. But he offers no reme
dies, suggests no solutions.
One phrase,
out the book that it is rather annoying. Gibbs as
sures his readers that England is serene and unruf
fled in the midst of all the wild confusion about her.
Again and again he says that all the nations of the
continent envy England for her stability. And in
deed, England's monarchy, limited though it is, does
seem to make the tottering or already fallen democ
racies seem romantic experiments.
Toward a Neic
Journalism.
"Liberal journalism was never
at a lower ebb in America than it
is today, when to publish a liberal
journal is to offend all those who
would preserve the status quo," so
Clark McAdams, editor emeritus
of the St Louis Post Dispatch, told
a Philadelphia group recently.
"Today there is a growing doubt
among the great mass of our citi
zens whether the press is any
longer a champion of their rights,"
Prof. Kenneth E. Olson, president
of the American Association of
Teachers of Journalism, asserted
at Chicago convention of that or
ganization last week. American
newspapers generally, he said,
tend to be "mouthpieces of con
servative wealth," and far less
liberal than most of their readers.
So Journalists agree. They agree
that the press needs to reexamine
its purpose and its loyalties. In
these times. Professor Olson says
"the press may lag behind in rec
ognizing the social changes that
have taken place." If this hap
pens, he said, the press is going to
find itself sharply challenged by
other agencies for disseminating
information.
Is the press inadequate, then, to
meet the new demands upon it to
provide "a dependable and under
standable picture" of the new
world ? Professor Olson thinks
not but he implies that editors and
publishers must first see the situa
tion whole, rather than from a
personal angle only; that they
must redediate themselves to
seeking facts and then printing
them without favor or fear. Mr.
McAdams also supports this view,
urging the publication of what he
calls '"free news." This he de
fines as "news undoctored by the
bias of any editor or publisher," he
added:
News has a mission. It is to tell
the people the truth. Christ said:
"Ye shall know the truth, and the
truth shall set you free." But we
cannot know the truth if the news
papers are to sift it thru a hundred
screens and bring It out In the
likeness of their own prejudices
and beliefa If we are to assemble
the truth in a pure state an pre
of establishing the laws.
Wt ftl quit $ur that our Nebraska state
legislators, who are Intelligent and broad
minded and represent the beat Interests of the
state of Nebraska, will refrain from enactment
of any such foolish legislation as anti-Communist
and antl-llberal aots. Disregard of such
radical groups, will do more toward their ulti
mate disintegration than will aggressive action
course would only make for unity
group, uniting them In a bond of
any future progressive moves
that will be made by presort leaden. v
There is no reason for level-headed university
administrators and intelligent legislators to become
panicky merely because business men of the news
paper are feigning fear. Such money-seekers have
their axes to grind. University men should have
no such ulterior motives.

What if anything, can be done
to provide a larger or at least a
more reliable supply of "free
news?"
First more men and women
capable of understanding public
affairs, and capable of writing
about them in a "dependable and
understandable" way need to be
trained or discovered. More read
ers also need to be educated to
understand the problems of the
press, and to demand uncolored
news. Schools of Journalism are
doing good work in both fields.
But secondly, those capable of
reporting and writing the news in
telligently must be permitted and
encouraged to do so without halt
or hindrance from editors and pub
lishers steeped in old habits and
prejudices. These two things, to
gether will win for the American
press the place it rightfully de
serves. The guarantees it enjoys
under the Constitution place upon
it responsibilities which it is honor-bound
to accept If it will do
so, a new and finer journalism will
result and will help to bring into
existence a finer country. Chris

state whose dependence is com
pletely on farming. As a further
influence in Nebraskas agricul
tural program he is directpr of
the state's six experimental sta
tions, supervisor of the secondary
school in agriculture at Curtis. and
top man in the human pyramid
that is the farm extension bureau,
which is charged with the "putting
over" of the administration's AAA
as well as the regular contact cor
respondence between the research
work of the college and every
community in the state.
Probably a good time to view
the activities and outlook of this
rugged product of the farm, who
is now commissioned as curator oi
the best interests of agriculture,
is at the close of the Organized
Farm Week in which ag college
functioned so largely. As key
man and host to the convention,
Influential power in the swinging
of several important bills before the
legislature, friend to the visiting
president and vice president of the
Burlington railroad, and dean or
the busiest of colleges all in one
week Mr. Burr just smiled and
worked and forgot to bustle and
hurry because he had no time to
waste.
In directing the preparation of
the future farmers of the state,
Dean Burr foresees a slight change
in the objectives of all colleges
and especially that of agriculture.
"Without slackening the emphasis
on vocational trn'-iing," Dean Burr
began, "we expi . to stress a more
complete life rather than the mak
ing of money. In keeping with
this idea we have been consider
ing the curriculum of the college
over a period of the last few years
with the view of imparting a cul
tural vision of sound citizenship.
"The importance of the women s
side of life is being remembered in
this respect, and while home eco
nomics is not being neglected, an
outlook for intelligent citizenship
is being emphasized. Along" with
lending social thinkers we believe
that the danger to all tnat is
American lies In the disintegration
of home life. Girls are receiving
training that is planned to lessen
such a possibility."
Dean Burr then added a practi
cal and conservative note to his
conception of idealistic education,
"We realize that the present, ii-
nancial status of farming Is not
able to support a large number of
college trained men, but we hope
for enough highly trained men
actually on the land to give agri
culture the proper leadership. And
to supplement these men we want
an efficient working farm popu
lace. Designed to meet this end are
the short courses in motor, dairy,
etc. and the farm operator course
which is a condensed review of
practical application in farming,
the only academic subjects which
it contains being arithmetic and
letter writing."
Able to pause only a moment
from his under pressure activity.
Dean Burr's reminiscence of per
sonal experience was necessarily
brief. But as he told of his boy
hood on a farm In the wide open
spaces of Indiana and Virginia he
did pause. A happy smile played
on his strong wind roughened fea
tures: he ran a band thru the
bushy grey hair that was once
black, pushed his glasses above his
heavy eyebrows, and finally
stroked the chin that has one of
those peculiar circular depressions
in the exact center. He used to be
a country school teacher, taught a
district school, did research work
largely In dry farming and worked
on a farm. He remembered, "Yes,
my whole past is pretty deeply
grounded in farm soil." Before ab
ruptly coming back to reality, he
vouchsafed that he also loves his
wife . . . and a very vile Tipe.
Mr. Burr was graduated from
the university in 1906 and imme
diately went to the North Platte
experiment station as assistant in
agronomy. Soon after his appoint
ment he was employed by the of
fice of dry-lr nd agriculture to take
charge of the work which the de
partment was carrying on in co
operation with the North Platte
station. He remained in that posi
tion for seven years.
In 1912 he was selected to super
vise the experimental work being
carried on by the office of dry-land
agriculture in the great plains re
gion. In his new position he had
charge of the field plans of experi
ments and the compilation of re
cords on twenty different stations,
and was largely responsible for the
lines of investigation carried out
Mr. Burr's intimate acquain
tance with experimental work in
North and South Dakota. Ne
braska, Kansas, and Oklahoma
under conditions similar to those
of this state has given him oppor
tunity to study the agriculture of
the great plains region. His con
nection with the North Platte sta
tion and with the Farmer's Insti
tute work of the state has giver
him a wide Nebraska acquain

Cummings Believes Section
Mexico May Hold Secret
Lost Civilization.
TIISCON. Ariz.. Jan. 13. (CNS).
A mountain wilderness in the Va-
qul Indian country of Sonara,
Mexico, may today hold tne secret
of a lost civilization of giants, pos
aihiv thP "miaslne' link" connecting
the Indian with the Mongolian of
Asia, believes. Dr. Byron uum
mtngs, University of Arizona ar-
cheologlst.
And for this reason, Dr. Cum
mings revealed this week, a second
expedition will be led into the re
gion by Paxson Hayes, cnthnologist
and discoverer of what he de
scribed as a group of "nine foot
skeletons and mummies."
According to the university ar
cheologist, Hayes' discovery, If
substantiated by future expedi
tions, will revolutionize the theo
ries of American archeologtsts in
two ways:
1. It would be the first time in
the history of America that a tribe
of giants ever had been unearthed,
and might provide the "missing
link" between the Asiatic Mon
golian and the American Indian.
2. It would be the first time that
actual mummies have been found
on this continent. ,
Before the expedition sets forth
into the Vaqui country it must
have the permission of Mexican
authorities, Cummings points out.
The Vaquis must also be consult
ed, he believes.

In a momentous spring election
that was full of thrills and upsets,
the new Progressive party swept
all but four of their candidates
into office to make the headlines
on April 1. The victory came im
mediately after the surprise organ
ization of a new and powerful
Green Toga faction, which was to
take most of the campus posts.
Except for the Innocent's reor
ganization story, the largest of
the ten outstanding news stories
of the year was the account of the
Ivy Day celebration and announce
ment of new Innocents and Mortar
Board members. The Ivy day ora
tion and poem, the fraternity and
sorority sing contests, and ac
counts of all-university and engi
neering week made this issue of
the Nebraskan one of the most at
tractive and important of the year.
The triumph of Kansas univer
sity tracksters in the annual Big
Six meet was the only sports story
to receive recognition in the ten
outstanding accounts of the year.
Dethroning Nebraska with a four
teen point majority, the Mt Oread
cindermen were swept to victory
by Glenn Cunningham.
Only one football game was
judged to be important enough to
be included in the story roster
the Kansas State victory over Ne
braska that carried the Big Six
title with it. Since this game came
during a vacation period, there
was no issue of the Nebraskan to
chronicle it explaining the ab
sence of football stories from the
list.

most elaborate drama thus far at
tempted this season, due to the
three track and revolving stages
and the variations of the lighting
effects. With a cast of fifty, un
usual sets, appropriate costumes
and the unusualness of the play It
self, this production should draw
a capacity audience.
As this cast is unusually large,
it is Interesting to note what old

Stokes," and Koy Squire will be
"William Crawford Gorgas." Jock,
the campus canine, will be the dog
in the show, "Kim." The quintet of
soldiers who illustrate the various
tvins of characters found in c.n
army, from tho Jewish radical,
blarney Irishman, Canadian toughy
and pessimistic soldier to the
southerner, will be played by five
well known men of the campus.
David Gold ware will be "Busch,"
the reader of Karl Marx theories;
Hank Kosman will be "O'Hara,"
the Irish soldier interested in medi
cine; Clare Wolf is cast as "Brink
erhof," the Canadian; Irving Hill
as "vvu.iam li. Dean; ' and jbck
Nicholas as "Mc Clelland," the
American soldier from the south.
Characters of minor Importance

ment; "George," played by Edgar
Lewis; "Harkness" by Sid Baker
and "Kraemer" by William Klax.

New Device Goes Into Use at
Mt. Wilson Observatory
In California.
PASADENA, Calif., Jan. 13.
(CNS). A tiny device weighing
only a few pounds will bring t-j
earth vast realms of hitherto un
explored space when astronomers
adjust it to the Carnegie Institu
tion's Mt. Wilson telescope it was
learned here this week.
The device is a super-speed cam
era lens which thepretlcally should
double the efficiency of the world's
largest telescope, according to re
ports. It will be used at the Mt.
Wilson observatory until Califor
nia Institute of Technology la able
to use it on their proposed 2011
inch reflecting telescope at Palo
mar Mountain near San Diego,
Calif.
The idea for construction of the
lens was suggested by the British
Scientific Instrument Association,
a government body. By cutting
the exposure time In half, the new
lens should enable scientists to ac
complish double the amount of
spectroscopic work with the Mt.
Wilson 100-inch telescope in a
given time.
