the annual conventions idea
gated by the Nebraska Student council are carried
out. While the sentiment of student groups on the
other five campuses is not yet definitely known, It
is hoped to have received answers by the end of this
week.
Such a project was started two years ago, but
after one successful meeting, nothing more was
heard of the idea. The worth of such a conclave
in establishing better relations between the sister
schools, and in helping one another to solve mutual
problems Is undeniable.
Included in the list of general topics for discus
sion as outlined by the Nebraska council in its let
ters to the other schools are such items as class or
ganization, book exchanges, general relations with
the faculty, chaperons, and general student govern
mental activities.
Every one of these topics is of pressing inter
est to the Nebraska campus. Class organization, at
least by the graduating group, has at last been act
ed upon here. The first step in unifying the senior
class is to be taken this week and it is hoped that
other functions can be held later in the spring.
There must be, however, provisions made for a
more permanent system of organization for the
graduating class. Under the present setup the de
sired unity can be had only by1 the use of such im
promptu methods as are being employed this year.
Just what those provisions are to be is a matter that
is causing much puzzlement to members of the com
mittee in charge of organization.
The used book situation has long been a sore
spot on the campus. Nebraskans hate to see the
end of the semester roll around because of the head
ache that ensues when one tries to figure out the
discrepancies between selling price and purchase
price of texts. Several projects have been tried in

more step in the direction of ulti
mate war seems unquestionable.
Prof. Hill continued. "At the pres
ent time the nations are lntenf
upon economic programs, they are
without financial credit, and the
memory of the last war lingers,
The successful treatment of the
Austrian crisis last summer, of the
issues involved in the assassination
of the King of Jugolavia. and of
the Saar Plebiscite all show that
European nations are anxious to
avoid war."
Dr. W. H. YVerkmeister, assist
ant professor of philosophy who
has recently visited Germany and
is vitally interested in Hitler and
his regime, corroborates Mr. Hill's
opinion that the powers do not
want war. Dr. YVerkmeister further
substantiates this conclusion by
stating that be believes that peace
negotiations between England and
continent powers will be resumed
next Sunday when Sir John Si
mon, English minister of foreign
affairs, and Captain Eden, British
disarmament expert, carry their
peace plans to Berlin for a palaver
with the Relchsfuehrer. Werkmets
ter stated that the peace of Eu
rope depends on tmch a plan as
that of Simon ard Eden which
provides for armament restrictions
and mutual assistance among na
tions. The germ idea of this plan
originated between France and
Italy; Flandin and Laval of France
discussed the procedure at London
and now the Englishmen, Simon
and Eden, will plead its cause at
Berlin, Warsaw and Moscow re
epectively.
"Peace negotiations need not be
disrupted by the reinstatement of
compulsory military training in
Germany," Werkmeister said, "be
cause other countries have been
increasing war budgts and talk
tag of peace for years. YVhy
shouldnt Germany?" Altho Dr.
Werkmeister sees the renewal of
th armed-camp setup in Germany
as a deplorable state of things at
well as a disillusionment to peace
workers all over the world, be
cannot lay the blame of this con
dition at the German portal, be
cause be says that the allies were
the first to violate the Versailles
disarmament clause. He declares
that factual evidence shows that
the allies solemnly promise to dis
arm In 1919 and have been in
creasing their armaments since.
Germany was promised equality in
1932, and was ready to accept the
Mac Donald plan for disarmament
In the summer of 1933. France
side-tracked the latter possibility
and Germany's equality was for
gotten. The history of disarmament
shows tnat real problems were al
ways evaded and that there was
little sincerity in the matter on the
part of Loe armed nations. Werk
meister continued. The world knew
that Germany had been rearming
and on several occasions British
and French statesmen have de
clared that it would help matters
considerably if Germany would
come out in the open, he stated.
Besides the beneficial effect of
Hitler's move to be above board.
Prof. Werkmeister finds that since
Germany has seen to her own
equality among her neighbors or
will now do so, her cause for leav
ing the League of Nations will be
removed and the road to her re
entrance will be clear.
Prof. Werkmeister is of the
opinion that the rearmament pro

Somewhat in opposition to this
view, Dr. G. W. Gray of the history
aeparcment, says, "i believe that
the Germans are foolish for in
creasing their armaments because
of their financial status."
Other of Mr. Gray's statements
serve well to summarize the
thoughtful reaction to the head
line blare of last Sunday. He
states, "The actions of France,
Japan, Italy. England, and even
the United States in the last ten

zations at which new members
have been announced.
Sigma Xi, formed for the pur
pose of fostering and recognizing
marked ability in undergraduate
and graduate students for inde
pendent investigation of scientific
subjects, was founded in 1886 at
Cornell university. The local chap
ter was established In 1887. There
are two classes of membership, ac
tive and associate; the former is
restricted to members of institu
tion staffs and the latter open to
graduate and undergraduate stu
dents. Selections are made upon
nomination by the departments in
which the student's research is be
ing done, and election by the en
tire chapter.
Officers in Sigma Xi for the past
year have been Prof. D. A. Wor
cester, president: Dr. W. A. Wil-
lard, vice president; and Prof.
Emma N. Anderson, secretary.
P. B. K. Oldest Greek Fraternity.
Phi Beta Kappa was founded at
William and Mary college In 1776.
It is the oldest Greek letter organi
zation in America. In 1896 the
Nebraska chapter was founded.
Membership in the society repre
sents the best scholars of the
graduating classes, and persons
distinguished in letters, science or
education. It Is limited to those
in the college of arts and sciences
and certain other student who
have met liberal arts requirements.
Alumni, and others not attached
to the school as honorary members
are also eligible for membership.
Total memberrhip each year is
limited to from one-sixth to one-
tenth of the qualified graduates.
Officers for the past year have
been Prof. J. P. Builford, presi
dent; Prof. Ruth Odell, vice presi
dent; Prof. Matilda Peters, treas
urer; Prof. Clifford-Hicks, secre
tary, and Mrs. A. W. Williams, his
torian. Since 1915 local chapters of the
two organizations have held at
least one general meeting for the
public at which some outstanding
scholar has been heard. The meet'
ing April 2 will be such a meet'
