Little Man,
What Now?
PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT gave private in
dustry a great deal to think about Monday,
when at dedication ceremonies for the huge
Boulder Dam in Nevada, he declared that pri
vate industry "must bear the principal re
sponsibility of keeping the processes of greater
employment moving forward with accelerated
speed."
Now business and industrial lenders have
!een having a merry time since 1933 heckling
the New Deal, Mr. Roosevelt in particular, and
giving it the well-known Bronx cheer. Govern
ment has no business interfering with our af
fairs, they asserted, for we can jolly well
handle our interests without help from anyone,
much less the government.
The sickly mess private enterprise had made
of this very task from 1929 to 1933, however,
makes the assertion sound very ridiculous. And
the gloomy, desperate picture that was the first
few months of 1933 somehow doesn't stand in
support of the contention.
Mr. Roosevelt was not the man to stand idly
Ivy and see a nation with almost one-eighth of
its citizenry walking the streets plunged into
civil strife because of want and need in a land
of plenty. Swinging into action on dozens of
fronts, he set federal machinery in motion to
provide jobs for the unemployed and food and
shelter for the poor and helpless.
To create jobs for some twelve millions or
more of men was a gigantic order. But men
had to have an opportunity to live, to feed and
iclothe their families and keep them well. Pri
vate enterprise was not in a position to use or
help these millions of unemployed. But one
plan of action remained ; the government must
somehow, some way provide for them.
And this Mr. Roosevelt proceeded to do, first
striking" at the problem with direct relief
grants, then thru government-created jobs on
public works and improvement projects, and
finally in stimulating the functioning of pri
vate enterprise and business thru numerous
phannels.
To be sure the program under which this
feat was accomplished entailed the spending of
huge and unprecedented sums of money. But
the hungry we;e fed, the needy were clothed,
and those who wanted work and could work
had the opportunity to do so.
Despite this fact, a great hue and cry about
government spending has been raised through
out the New Deal's existence by business and
industrial leaders who having eyes saw not the
misery and despair in the nation, and having
ears heard not the pleas for help from untold
millions. National bankruptcy threatened, they
said, if federal spending did not cease, but
they did not say what would happen to the na
tion's forgotten men.
Furthermore, they did not like the manner
in which the New Deal was seeking to eliminate
cutthroat competition, chiseling, deceit, and
othermfair practices from business and in
dustry. Their rights were being infringed upon,
they insisted, their privileges taken away.
.What they did not say was that their privilege
to do everyone they could was threatened and
it was not pleasant to swallow.
And so they continued to blast away at the
New Deal day after day without offering an
alternate plan of action.
In the meantime, however, stimulated by
federal aid, and restored confidence and aided
by natural recessional tendencies of the de
pression, the nation began to emerge from its
economic slump. Business tok a sharp turn for
the better, prices of agricultural products
soared, factories reopened, men went back to
work in increasingly large numbers, and the
country suddenly found that it could see the
light of better times. .
Still the clamor against Mr. Roosevelt con
tinued, "free us from government control,
cease government spending."
And suddenly Mr. Roosevelt decided that
that time had come to give private enterprise
its chance ?ain. Dechring a "breathing spell
for business and industry so far as the admin
istration is concerned, Roosevelt suddenly re
moved what little basis existed for much of the
ranting and raving of his opposition.
Then Monday he went a step farther, indi
cating that government spending is at the end
of its trail and that henceforth business may
have the doubtful honor of taking care of the
employment situation.
For two years private enterprise has clam
ored loudly for certain concessions. Today its
leaders suddenly find theso thing they asked
for thrust upon them. And the amusing part
of it is, they are not just sure whether they
really want what they now have. It should
prove interesting to see how the problem is
handled under new direction.

Oil for the Gripes
Of the Campus.
TO THE EDITOR:
Oil has been discovered on the Nebraska
campus, exclaimed a freshman. And he was
right. lie discovered it along with others who
were forced last week to travrse T street, be
tween 10th and 12th, commonly known as the
engineers' alley.
This rond, which moRt students identify as
that bordering the south edge of the football
field, has always been rough and full of holes.
"Rut. thnsA n ehnrce of maintenance aarreed that
it was rough and let it go at that. So it's still
rough. Likewise, it is at most limes very
dusty, with cinders spread over the road like
frosting on a baker's cake.
One day last week someone in the main
tenance department apparently became con
cerned with the condition of the road, lie saw
dust. Engineering ingenuity called for road
oil. So a crew with &a oil spreader proceed to
oil the road.
But there were several errors in their
method. In the first place, they didn't use
road oil, which is properly a mixture of lubri
cating oil and asphalt. They forgot the asphalt,
applying just lubricating oil. Likewise, a road
should be leveled as much as possible before
the application of oil. These fellows forgot
that.
So what do we have? The same rough alley,
smeared with oil, sticking to shoes, running
boards, floor boards, and splashing onto
clothes. An improvement? Don't ask the
maintenance boys. They wouldn't care to com
ment. E. D.
CONTEMPORARY
COMMENT
Analyze Yourself!
lWIAN'S greatest discovery is the ability to
find himself. Many times the latent abil
ities of a person are concealed in a misty haze
of doubtfulness and fear of showing what he
really is.
lie who does not put in use his gifts and
qualities fades and deteriorates just as un
used machinery becomes obsolete and rusty.
Man must fix his mind on one ambition and
focus all his mental and physical powers
toward that goal.
His conscience is his compass, and he
should never allow indecision or any obstacle
to change his coarse.
Multitudes have let other influences in
terfere with their innate aptitude, and conse
quently they have become failures or are still
struggling in mediocrity.
Sydney Smith, the noted philosopher,
said: "Follow the grain of your aptitude and
you will succeed; do anything else, and you
will be ten thousand times less than nothing."
Though this statement contains a power
ful warning, it is unfortunate that so many
disregard it. They do what nature forbids
them to attempting to fit a square peg into
a round hole.
Today our schools and colleges offer many
opportunities for Belf-analysis. However, one
must use judgment in choosing his vocation.
What may seem pleasant and desirable at first
may later turn out to be a chronic drudge.
Everyone must choose for his life's work
something that is fitted for him, and he must
sacrifice much to gain his objective. Success
is determined by one's capacity to find him
self. The Junior Collegian.
Theater Goers,
Note ...
A few days ago, Mussolini issued the follow
ing rules to govern the actions of newsreel cam
era men with the Italian army in North Africa
in case of war:
"1. All camera men must be of the Italian
nationality.
"2. All film must be shipped to Italy for de
velopment, which must be done in government
laboratories.
"3. All film must pass the government censor
before it ay be shown or exported from
Italy."
- Because no motion picture companies have
sent camera crews to the Ethiopian side of the
potential battle line, due to the extremely haz
ardous conditions, all of the newsreel pictures
you will see of the war if there is one will
be taken under these rules. It seems obvious
that these views will be, to say the least, biased.
Mussolini's action in subjecting newsreels to
such close censorship may cause informed
theater goers to take all movie reports with
many, many, many a grain of salt.

Ak-sar-ben ball!! House par
ties!! Minnesota game!! Four stars
for each. All three events bring us
to the point that campus lassies
will diversify their toggery to a
t in th nt two weeks.
First th very elegant Ball on
Friday will give us something to
think about. Those in the "know"
should consider a gown of the
Grecian mode. Renaissance ladles
will be many, looking soft and
willowy In the drapes and gathers
of that romantic era. Belts and
folds studded with gold and colored
beads will add a note of richness.
You'll want to dance forever in
vanity slippers with thin satin
straps, edged in gold kid, and
gleaming with colored stones.
Wear something In your hair, too
perhaps crystalline flowers, or
color of some sort. You can feci
like a Queen If you look like ono,
remember.
And next In order, are the house
parties. Make thorn exciting with
one of the new pleating trimmed
dresses. Louthful and chic effects
are obtained by tiny white pleat
ing close to the neck topping a
vestee made of accordion pleats.
Choose a turban or tricorn to
match the dress colon, for com
fortable dancing. If you prefer,
you might flatter yourself with a
draped silhouette. Soft subtle lines,
combined with music is dangerous,
you Know,

where could we have a better
sports parade? Be as striking in
dress as you wish; It's one place
where it pauses 100 percent. Rustic
tweeds, flat heeled anodes, swanky
felts, In naturo's colors of rust,
brown, green and scarlet, do a lot
to make one both look and feel in
mood for an exciting tlrao.
