A More Practical
Peace Plan.
PIE greatest danger of war today lies in the
Pacific ocean where United States and Japan
are likely to clash, according to Frederick J. Llbby,
speaker at the World Forum luncheon Thursday.
While all of Europe Is restless and uneasy, there
does not seem to be much Immediate danger of
a conflagration there, due to financial difficulties,
he said.
The United State, in its plans tor extensive
naval maneuvers In the Pacific waters, is thumb
ing its nose at Japan. Should the United States
get a bit too offensive the match will be touched
and war will flare up. Then, according to Llbby.
if the United States conquers Japan, the way will
be left open for a clean sweep of Asia by Russia.
And when Russia, always ambitious, has accom
plished this, there will be precipitated a terrible
war between the vast communistic empire and the
rest of the world.
The removal of any chance of war between
the United States and Japan, plus the eventual
entry of this country into the League of Nations
and the World Court was seen as a practical way
to long coveted peace.
Five points were outlined in the removal cf
any possibility of war with Japan:
1. Protest against the proposed naval ma
neuvers. 2. Reduction of the proposed appropriation
for army and navy.
3. Education of the people.
4. Repeal of the exclusion act.
5. Devotion of the world good will day.
May 18, to the plan of peace in the Pacific.
HERE, then, is a plan that should be workable.
Too many of the ideas for peace have been in
the past along the lines of "peat? at any cost." On
the other hand, many of the programs have been
too idealistic to be practical.
But if what Mr. Llbby says of the oriental
situation is true, and his facts and arguments seem
to bear out bis statements, the plan presented
Thursday is neither too radical nor too idealistic
With the proper co-operation and much labor It
can be worked out
Attainment of the third objective, enlighten
ment of public opinion, will bring about the rest
of the program. The fact that the United State
is assembling its great armada so close to the Japa
nese waters seems to indicate that it is deliberately
flirting with danger.
Following along the same lines, the huge pro
posed appropriation for the army and navy looks
like someone is beginning to get a bit aggressive,
despite all arowals to the contrary. A reduction
of the appropriation below the amount absolutely
necessary for national defense Is not asked, but a
large enough reduction to keep the United States
out of a competitive armament race- An aroused
public opinion against these trends, communicated
to Washington, via Father Coughlin methods, can
do much to avcit immediate danger of war with
Japan.
By the same method a repeal of the exclusion
act, cause of much of the friction between the two
nnt)nnj can be brought about eventually. To do
this, facts must be learned and prejudices over
come. And to overcoming these prejudices world
good will day can be devoted.
Once this Immediate dsngcr is averted, more
time and effort can be devoted to getting this coun
try into the World Court More time can be de
roted to shut off the senseless yawpings of men
like Huey Long, Father Coughlin, Senator Borah,
and W1U Rogers, who were largely Instrumental'
recently in defeating the entrance of the United
States Into the court.
In this, as in every other worthwhile move
ment, young people must take the reins. It is they
who will have to suffer the horrors of another war;
who will have to dig from under when the war is
ended.
It U they who are slowly assuming powar in
this country. Are they going to sit Idly by and
let that power go to waste, or are they going to
do something about it? '
The Wolveg ire
Loose in Oklahoma.
THE wolves are loose in Oklahoma and trying
to chew up everything in sight. The Big Six
has had plenty of experience with alumni and "sup
porters" who are always dissatisfied with this cr
that coach, but never has it witnessed such radical
action as that being taken by a group of Oklahoma
U. alumni.
Dlsgrunted with the work of Lewis Hardage
and John Rowland, football coaches, evidently be
cause the Sooners didn't win enough games, the
alumni has gone to work and taken their case to
the state legislature. There they are supporting
a bill which provides for a new athletic council
composed of alumni. This would mean that the
present board, with faculty representation would
go out on its ear, resulting in the dropping of Okla
homa from the Big Six since conference rules re
quire faculty representation on the school's ath
letic board.
According to he sports editor of the Daily
Oklahoman, stu .ewspaper, the measure is
purely a weapon v "e Hardage and Rowland out.
He states that importers of the measure have
offered to make a trade and hold up the bill If
university authorities get rid of the two coaches.
THE wolves have always been allowed to have a
little bit of fun at the expense of a coach who
has one or two off years, but it seems that they
are carrying their game too far when they begin
to meddle directly In university affairs.
Oklahoma officials expressed their confidence
in Hardage and Rowland when they declared sev
eral months age that the two in question would
stay on the coaching staff. And there the mat
ter should have ended. Instead the alumni have
decided that the officials don't know what they are
about, and are trying to ram something down their
throats.
Even if Rowland and Hardage do deserve the
gate, it doesn't seem to be the alumni's place to
step in and take charge of the matter.
The trouble is, however, that Oklahoma is not
the only school that is bothered by over-enthusiastic
"supporters." Maybe someone should organize an
old-fashioned wolf hunt-
Senior Organization
And Other Things.
F)LANS for organization of the senior class took
another step forward Thursday night as the re
cently appointed committee started functioning. A
plea for support in their activities is to be made
to all organized houses, Greek and unaffiliated alike,
by the group. And it will be necessary to have
that support, for eight people cannot do everything
for a class of over 500.
Nebraska will play the dog the week of March
18 when Fred Ballard, Nebraska born playwright,
brings his newest contribution to the dramatics
field to the Temple theater for its permiere. If,
however, his new production "My Lucky Star" is
as good as his other plays. Nebraska should feel
honored in playing that role.
Tonight the university will crown its last queen
for the year or is there another girl to be honored
yet this spring? Somebody should think up some
new diversion for the campus to take the place
of electing so many queens each year. Why not
a nice exciting game or tiddly-winks or a potato
race at intermission instead of watching the prom
girl or honorary colonel or farmer's formal queen
strut their stuff?
Three Husker squads mill be doing their darnd
est this week end to recover a little of the prestige
Nebraska has lost this year in Big Six competition.
Rudely shaken out of its almost traditional place
as football champion. Nebraska went into the cage
season to end up one notch above the cellar.
It is probably better for all concerned, how
ever, that the Huskers were shoved out of the spot
light for the year.
The "rah-rah" college boy Is definitely out of
the picture, say college editors and others, who
might be better judge of the situation than the
editors. Due to the necessity of working his way
thru school, however, the new college man 1 cot
getting a better scholastic average than his older
brother, according to Dean Harper of the univer
sity. Grades or no grades it U encoursging to t-e
that the "rah rah" lad has been given the final
boot.

Contemporary
Comment
'An Example
Of Americanism.
Significant is the report that
comes from Oglethorpe university.
Recently a professor, tinged with
red, of a rival institution, was in
vited to speak to the International
Relations Club. When he arrived,
he was met by the spring football
squad and firmly convinced that
his presence was undesirable. "A
most refreshing exhibition of good,
old fashioned Americanism." com
mented Oglethorpe's president,
ThornweH Jacobs.
President Jacobs' commeht is a
refreshing example of something
else. When more private univer
sity beads have the courage to dis
play by their attitude their opin
ion of those liberal zealots who in
sisted on ieu ii.DMiiiiiaii.li to the
constitution, education will no
doubt touch a new high peak. How
the bones of Thomas Jefferson
woud rattle If they anew how as
siduously this educator applies
himself to "old fashioned Ameri
canism!" How William Randolph
Hearst and Father Coughlin would
gurgle with complacent satisfac
tion were there more universities
with Oglethorpe's liberal attitude!
The student body. too. is to be
congratulated. A student body
which is so firmly convinced of its
collective stand on any question,
that it will forego the privilege of
heckling an opposition speaker
with embarrassing questions is
definitely approaching the prob
lems of life with an admirably open,
collective mind. A refreshing dis
play if old fashioned Americanism
indeed! The Msrvard Crimson.
Instrumental Selections Are
Included on Thursday
Program.
A variety of vocal and instru
mental selections were presented
at the weekly student recital held
Thursday afternoon, March 7, at
4 o'clock in the Temple theater.

Mr. Marion Cushing, floor lead
er of the republican party In the
house of representatives addressed
the ag students at a convocation in
Agricultural hall Thursday after
noon. His subject was "Legislative
Problems of 1935." Mr. Cushing,
who had served in thelegislature
for the last four sessions, gave his
audience some vitally interesting
sidelights on what is going on
down at the state house.
Not the slightest problem facing
the legislators is that of sorting
out of the great number of "fool"
bills which are cluttering up the
slate at the present time, the im
portant ones which must be passed
upon this session. Among these
more Important bills before them
now is that of the Unicameral
Legislature. , The biggest problems
here, Cushing said, will be the re
districting of the state so that
there will be but one district for
each of the fifty members of the
new government.
Other outstanding bills before
the law makers at the present time
are concerned with the collecting
of back taxes, the advisability of
a sales tax, a net income tax
(which happens to be Mr. Cush
ing's pet hobby , liquor sale, nad
the federal relief bill, which comes
up this morning, and 'which Mr.
Cushing predicts will go down in
defeat.
Alpha Zeta, men s honorary ag
ricultural fraternity, sponsored the
convocation.
BOOTH DECLARES
RECOVERY PLANS
'OLD FASHIONED'
(Continued from Page l.i
past will no longer be a hope of the
American people," Booth stated.
Taxpayers Wary.
Illusions of great material wealth
are rapidly fading and people are
sensibly trying to orient them
selves according to their means. At
the same time the taxpayer is be
coming more and more sensitive
about the value of his currency and
he wants the full value for his dol
lar. Another European phenomenon
In Its infancy in this country is the
young man's attitude regarding a
career in governmental service.
Collapse of state rights and inter
vention of the federal government
has been a most surprising devel
opment to the Englishman, partic
ularly since apparently no objec
tion has as yet voiced Itself.
American Idolization of the Brit
ish and the belief that they have
found the road to recovery by old
orthodox methods is a most naive
attitude to take. Booth maintained
In the first place. Booth declared.
England is not out of the depths
and the present "puff Is only a
short period of stimulation. In the
way of experimentation Fnland
has done lust as much If not more,
be maintained.
Switzerland has voted to length
en the period of compulsory mili
tary service.

In less than a week the univer
sity Is bringing to the campus the
greatest musical attraction on
tour, the Chicago Grand Opera
company. The cast of artists Is
the greatest ever presented on
tour In a single performance.
Among the' famous stars of the
operatic stage who will sing lead
ing roles are Maria Jeritza, Edith
Mason, Coe Glade, Guiseppe Ben
tonelll, Myron Duncan and Carlo
Morelll. Local audiences will see
the same costumes, scenery and
stage effects In addition to a large
orchestra, as is used in the per
formances at the famous Civic
Opera House in Chicago. Special
general admission seats of one dol
lar are being offered to students
and faculty members. Other re
served seats are selling for two
and three dollars. The seats on
the main floor will be elevated for
this event. Excerpts from three
operas, "Tannhauser," "Faust" and
"La Tosca" will be sung, besides
the ballet, "Gold Standard." danced
by Ruth Page and the Chicago
r.nnH nnxra romnpnv ballet corps.
Remember the opera, March 12.
Hazel Gertrude Kinscella, pro
fessor of piano at the Conserva
tory, has been invited to member
ship on the National Music Edu
cators' association which has for
its work tns coordination and In
tegration of music in school cur
rlculums. Charlotte Kiesselbach,
a student with Alma Wagner, sang
for the commencement exercises at
the Lincoln Busienss college Thurs
day morning. Laura Kimball, also
a student with Miss Wagner, sang
for the Sigma Alpha Iota tea re
cently at Ellen Smith hall.
The New York scene during the
past few weeks has brought sev
eral of the better known actors of
England and this country back to
Broadway. The trek has been from
New York to Hollywood, during
the past, and lately several of the
well known screen celebrities have
left the celluloid and are enjoying
the thrill of a personal appear
ance. Roland Young, whose work
in "David Copperfield," seen here
recently, was a complete surprise
to those of his audience who are
used to seeing him in nothing but
the lightest of comedy roles, has
returned in the role of a criminal
doctor in "The Distant Shore."
The play is based on the Crippen
Murder Case of some few years
ago.
Walter Connelly, one of the
abler character actors of our stage,
has returned to play the title role
of "The Bishop Misbehaves." Press
notices were wildly enthusiastic
about his work, but not about the
play. With him Is playing Jane
Wyatt, whose work as the in
genue in "Great Expectations," re
cently seen at one of the local
theaters, marked her as one of the
better of the younger actors.
Leslie Howard is having a suc
cessful run in Robert Sherwood's
new play, "The Petrified Forest,"
which, by the way, is in book
shape at some of the local stores
and worth while reading. Playing
with him is Peggy Conklin, also
seen here in "The Pursuit of Hap
piness." The play has been put on
the "must" list by many critics.
This Is the first Broadway play
Howard has been seen in for some
time, as his time is usually di
vided between England and Hollywood.

Assistant to Demonstrate
Electron Apparatus to
Physics Club.
M. H. Halderson. physics major
,nH QBsistant in that department.
will demonstrate Mlllikan's oil drop
apparatus for determining me
electrical charge of the electron at
the physics club program to be
presented in Brace laboratory Fri
day evening, March 8. Outlining
the development that led to the
electron theory of matter, Mr. Hal
derson will also discuss the scien
tific dispute on the existence of
this smallest division of matter.
Halderson stated that the meas
uring setup of Millikan. who is one
of the authorities on the subject, is
iratpri arrangement. It
contains two charged copper plates
which have a pin hole In their cen
ter. Oil Is sprayed between the
plates and a small particle settles
into the holes where Its fall is ob
served thru a microscope. The oil
globule is alternately raised and
lowered by charging and discharg
ing the plates. The smallest degree
of rise caused by the constant cur
rent is due to the addition or sub
traction to the total of one elec
tron. The charge of the electron is
thus determined.
The apparatus also includes a
chronograph for timing the move
ments of the oil particles. This
timing device, which is operated by
electricity, keeps a constant graph
by the use of two pens. Heater,
club president, stated that any stu
dents or members of the faculty
who are interested either in this
department or" in the address and
discussion of the electron are in
vited to this program. It is sched
uled at 7 p. m.
For the second time in two

In 1934. the Kansas U. quint
dropped a close decision in
Huskerland. This -year, Iowa State
lost to the Scarlet cagesters 'n
the conference opener. Perhaps If
Kansas had been willing to play
the Huskers early in the season
and had loafed thru to a loss, they
would be sitting on top of the pile
in place of Iowa State. Anyway,
it's a formula some of the league
teams might try.
