For the Laws.
DARD0N US. The Nebraskan wishes to im
pose upon the hospitality of its readers to
deal just one more time with that most face
tious subject, law college students. Quite in
dignant over the Xebraskan's perusal into their
privacy, members of law college found it
necessary again yesterday to take the morhing
off and consider the question from all its legal
aspects. Unlike the poor Arts and Science stu
dent, they slave so terribly hard All the time
that they deserved another period of relaxa
tion. Much of consequence was done in the
morning meeting-. Acting with judicial calm
and deliberation, characteristic of course, of
law students, they lined up in the halls of the
college and were all for "tar and feathering"
the Nebraskan editor.
But before undertaking- so playful a
mission, they numbering quite some many,
solemnly voted upon themselves. They unani
mously voted themselves "quite an intellec
tual body of students." The Nebraskan
wishes to appear amused without offending
the future laws' dignity. The purpose of
the vote is not quite clear. Perhaps it was to
bolster their spirits before entering- upon
such a hazardous undertaking' as capturing
one man. Again, if the law students do not
object, and the Nebraskan is sure they do
not, this publication will provide its interpre
tation of the true reason.
At one time the Congress of the United
States Toted themselves higher salaries. Such
action was later annulled. But it seems that
the same motives and instincts prevail. Work
ing as they had for some time, quite oblivious
nf their outer surroundings, this particular
congress thought themselves a body indepen
dent of society. Aloof of the petty ideas and
opinions of others this Congress thought it
could do no wrong. Congress learned better.
Law students are yet younester (despite de
nial). There is the hope that as Congress
learned so they will learn.
Now this self-voted "quite an intellec
tual group" has submitted a student pulse in
this issue of the Nebraskan which should
bear reading-. The student pulse wishes to
learn whether the "Nebraskan really means
to insinuate that the students of Law college
are merely monkeys without hand-organs."
No, much as it would like to gain fame for
the discovery, the Nebraskan can hardly lay
credit to its own doorstep for discovering
Darwin's long lost "missing- link." But for
the information of the law student, if the
patient reader will excuse this bit of ex
planation, there are two kinds of interpre
tation, literal and figurative. The figurative
type was meant, unless the law student, with
in his perfectly legitimate right, insists upon
clinging to the literal interpretation.
The student pulse then goes into the main
issue of the question. It is easy to discern the
issue. The issue is plainly set apart and
marked "The Issue," Law college does won
ders ;n its short span of three yars; even the
"slipped cog" in the Nebraskan editor's men
tal ability can see that the student poise is a
well organized "brief," only capable of ac
complishment by schooled law students. The
fads of the matter have not been presented
according to H. A. Futhermore. point number
two shows that the conduct "alleged" (a law
term, laymen; is not based on sufficient
grounds or facts. Thn comes the matter of
the "tradition of Law College to declare a
holiday once every year." The Nebraskan al
most bheds tears to think that inference be
drawn frmn yesterday's editorial that such a
worthy tradition should be "condemned."
e a
Others were responsible for the row, ac
cording to law students. It seems that the
lawyers are quite interested in current affairs
and that they just happened to lake along a
few newspapers. Those that did have anything
Uiisi-hievous in mind concluded it immediate
ly afler the "band had played the introduc
tory number." No. it was readily seen to be
the fault of others. The law students were
merely the victims of circumstance. Of all the
times during the several performances each
day and daring the entire two day run of the
orchestra, it w ould fall the lot of the poor un
lucky lsws to be caught in a net of circum
stances which mad them most unjustly re
ceive the blame for the entire afiair. Yes. in
deed, it is tragic.
THE NEBRASKAN SINCERELY
WISHES TO AID THE LAWS IN THEIR
PREDICAMENT. THEREFORE THE NE
BRASKAN SUGGESTS THAT THEY
TAKE RECOURSE TO THEIR PAINED
FEELINGS BY UNANIMOUSLY VOTING
THEMSELVES "IMMUNITY FROM ANY
CHAIN OF CIRCUMSTANCES DISTASTE
FUL TO THEIR OWN CONTENTMENT."
THEY MAY THEN REST EASILY, AS
THEIR TROUBLE SEEMS TO LIE MORE
IN PSYCHOLOGICAL DISTURBANCE
CAUSED BY SOMEONE QUESTIONING
THEIR OMNISCIENCE.

universities is bound to be a failure anyway.
It is patent that a student of the age of
the average college man or woman, if infor
mation is withheld in one direction, can get
it from some other source. All that the legis
lation has succeeded in accomplishing is a
lowering of the respect in which nil law is
held in the eyes of those affected. The dam
age does not end here, unfortunately, for
"subversive teachings" have a way of appeal
ing particularly when they must be come by
in nn underhanded fashion. Distortion i ior
particular purposes finds here a wide licia.
Few are those who have been harmed by a
full knowledge of the truth. A part -truth
has been known to do infinite harm. If col
lege professors must be muzzled for t'enr that
they will corrupt their pupils then indeed
our educational standards are in sad need of
revision. Brown Daily Herald.
TO THE EDITOR:
After reading your editorial of .March '23.
I wonder as to the policy of consistency that
the Nebraskan set up and professed to use in
the recent attack upon the student health of
fice. Was it not the Nebraskan that said, "Yes.
tfet all of the facts." or was this just a ruse
on the part of the Nebraskan. I, as a student
in Law College, think the Nebraskan has fallen
down in its endeavor to get and use all of the
facts in its attack on the students of Law Col
lege and their recent visit to one. of the local
theatres.
Does the Nebraskan really mean to insin
uate that the students of Law College are mere
ly Monkeys without a Hand-Organ? Does it
also attempt to set up the accusation that the
students of Law College have the mentality or
I. Q. of a child of 12 years of age? If this is
what was attempted. I say that somewhere a
cog has slipped, and it is impairing the men
tal ability of our editor, (i. e. if we can still
give him credit for ever being able to think
after his blather of the 23th.)
Why a publication of this university
should attack unjustly one of its own colleges
is difficult to tinderstand.
The Issue.
The Nebraskan accuses the students of
Law College of conduct unbecoming to college
siudents. To this we demur on the following
grounds :
1. The true facts of the case have not
been presented.
2. The conduct alleced is not based on
sufficient grounds or facts.
Did it ever occur to the Nebraskan that
there is a tradition within the Law College
to declare a holiday once every year and attend
some function or performance in a body. Sure
ly the Nebraskan is not going to condemn this
tradition. This year arrangements were made
to attend the performance of one of the local
theatres. Now it happens that while the stu
dents of Law College were attending this per
formance, a disturbance occurred, and since
the students of Law College were in the au
dience they were accused of causing this dis
turbance.
Analotrv such as this holds as much water
as a sieve. If such analogy is correct, then, I
suppose that one could easily say that the stu
dent body attending the basketball games
were responsible for the coin tossing that took
place between halves of the first few basket
ball tames, and we all know that this is not
true and as loyal students, defend the accusa
tion when it is made. Merely the fact that the
law students were at the same performance
does not warrant sufficient grounds to accuse
them of thi luis-cunduct.
Vhv not make it a point to look below
the surface of this incident and see who is real
lv responsible. The students of law college;
were not the only persons attending this per-1
formancr-. and they claim that they were not
the cause of this disturbance. e la.k up tni !
claim on the fact that the true facts of the;
case are that as manr students from other col
leges of this university attended the perform-;
a nee along with the Law students and only
with the intent of seeing some of the things
done that the law students have been unjustly
afcnsd of dointr in the past. W hat they came;
to see did not materialize. inu-h to their disap
pointment. So they decided and proceeded to
entertain themselves in the manner set up in
jour article atrainst the Law students.
No. I d' not say that we did not have out
newspapers with us. but you seem to forget
that we put them away after the band played
the introductory number, not only because c
found the !and was also reading papers, but
kn hpcause it is Dart of the tradition to use
the papers only for the opening number of the
performance.
In concision. I wish to state that we have
been maliciously and unjustly accused of mis-!
conduct of which we are not suilty. Jrureiy
the students of Law College are not to be held ,
ble for the conduct of the public at- j
tending the same thtatre. J also contend that
we are on par uith any other collet-e in the
university and should not be criticized for the
behavior of other groups. All that we ask is
that in the future vlien the Nebraskan wishes
to make an attack on atioi,e .r anjlhinii. they
make it a point to "iet all of the facts" as
they profess to be doing. H. A.

COMMENT
Muxzling
Our Profeor.
Harvard's fil'ht against ihe Massachusetts
Teachers' Oath Bill is'deservinar of the ereat
est sympathy from all institutions which pro
fess "intellectual freedom as their creed. It
seems inevitable that some all-knowing legis
lator should cook up an idea to foist upon
society which is apt to be accepted at its face
value without further inquiry. The legisla
tors seem to forget that the enactment of
legislation of this type perhaps does more
toward lowering the dirnity of the laws of a
state, aand toward breeding a spirit of an
tagonism in place of respect in the minds of
its citizens, than almost anything else the
legislature could attempt.
The Oath Bill is a step backward rather
than a step forward in the field of educational
legislation. It is an attempt to curb the ed
ucator in what should be his fundamental pur
pose: to seek what he believes to be the truth
and prsnt Ibis truth to the best of his abili-
ty to his students. Any law dHgnen to Keep ,
