Cowardice or
Common Sen?e?
Conflict is a sure source of copy for e-very
type of newspaper except the college press.
Too often university papers are forced to
overlook the better pans of smne interesting
fights because of the student personalities in
volved. But -when a blanket charge of "in
tellectual cowardice" is flaunted in the face
of the Interfraternity Council, the Nebraskan
feels that consideration of personalities should
do longer restrain it from pitching into a
first-class scrap.
Impartially viewed by the Nebraekan's
war correspondent, this particular battle
broke out in the fall of '35, when a newly
orsrnnized social chairmen's croup declared a
boycott on union bands in an effort to force
down the price. All fraternities and sororities
failed to cooperate when formal season came
around, and the movement laid an egg.
Agitation was renewed this fall by stud
ents who were determined to make their
boycott air-tight. They asked the assistance
of Dean Thompson and got it. They sought
the backing of the Interfraternity Council
and got it. Everything was set for a fight
to the finish.
But the Lincoln Musician's Union had
other ideus. They didn't want a fight with a
Kood customer on their hands; not even
Hamilton Fish would say that "trade union"
is a synonym for "violence". They were a
peace loving outfit, and thoy soon convinced
ihe united order of social chairmen that a
belligerent attitude would defeat the pur
pose of their movement.
Everybody stuck together and used canned
music for their first round of housepartics,
and finally the union came to terms. The
settlement reached so wuietly that the .Ne
braskan was unable to discover the details
until two days later consisted of three major
terms: The union rate on house party bands
would not be lowered; the union must guaran
tee that the band members had practiced
together at least once before they played for
a dance; fraternity and sorority house parties
must be limited to four on any one weekend
night.
That was on October 20. On Tuesday,
November 3, the Interfraternity Council
convened to consider the success of the
agreement in its practical aspects. Dissatis
faction with the results was practically
unanimous. As President Friedman put it,
"the council saw no advantage in the four
party rule and could see nothing accom
plished by the movement thus far."
"Intellectual cowardice!" declared Mr.
Hollister ihe next day. No, Mr. Holister, not
intellectual cowardice. Just common sense.
Plenty of two and three and four-year
men in this institution can remember, on
the evening following a football came, when
fifteen house parties could hardly accomo
date the crowds of students who were out to
celebrate. Such a reason for condemning the
"four party" clause of the agreement seems
too obvious and too blunt, but it's sound. And
from preliminary observations, the quality of
four house bands shouldn't merit cancelling
eleven other dances. Certainly the prices
haven't been cut.
The Nebraskan waxes nearly vociferous
in its approval of trade unions as an organized
basis for the collective bargaining of labor.
Even ihe republican platform did that. But
the purpose of a trade union is to increase
the wages of its members, not to agree to
salary cuts and more difficult working condi
tions. And surely the charter of the Lincoln
Musician's Union nowhere defines as a pur
pose the limitation of campus house parties on
any one night to four.
For these reasons, the Nebraskan. villi
the Interfraternity Council, leaves ihe move
ment in more interested hands, and hopes,
editorially, that it follows the example of
last rear's movement by laying an egg.
Jviusical
Jootnotes
Students atiendinc the musical
convocations aRftin had the privi
lege, WedncsdHv, of hearing a sec
tion from that host of Kreat music
which is continually being
alighted.
Carl Frederic Steekelberg, vet
eran violinist and instructor of the
school of music, brought us Caesar
Franck's sonata for violin and
piano. Mrs. Steckelberg was his
able assistant.
The only other number on the
program was given by Mrs. Lenore
Burkett Van Kirk, also of the
university faculty, who sanp, from
Verdi's ''II Trovatore," "Taera la
notto pladila."
Mr. Sleckelberg displayed a far
reaching understanding of music
which has almost limitless possi
bilities. The most effective per
formance came in the final move
ment whose rich melody and im
pelling rhythm were adequately
brought out by both violinist and
pianist.
The essence of Mrs. Van Kirk's
sinping was her excellence of vocal
technic.

for the fraternity and sorority
sections, SI. Inaugurating this
year a combination price of $2.50
for placing pictures in both sec
tions, the business staff are ex
pecting an especial increase in the
number of pictures placed in the
class groups.
These prices are reported to be
substantial reductions from last
year's charges. Further induce
ment to swell the number individ
ual of pictures in the book is the
gift offered to any fraternity or
sorority who completes their entire
poster with pictures in both the
section with the Greek houses and
the section with the classes.
OMAHA BANKER SPEAKS
t Continued from Page 1.)
3912," he advises, "two marks vali
dated by tne German government
would buy a fine meal, but in
3922. ten years later, two million
marks, also validated by the Ger
man government, would not buy
the same meal."
To explain the present use of
gold and silver for bases of mon
ey, the speaker compared civiliza
tion to a colony of 12 men.
Eleven of the men were put to
work in the fields raising crops
and animals and doing services
for the group who would exchange
their goods in the market. The
twelfth man was to be saved in
case their system failed. Explain
ing the troubles encountered by
various plans intioducted by the
twelfth colonist when the original
fystem proved unsuccessful. Vice
President McDermotl related how
the mythical character conceived
the idea of utilizing gold and
nlver for money.
Explaining the reasons for gold'h
suitability as the best medium of
exchange. McDermott asserted
that it has the greatest value for
the smallest weight, that it is
easy to mark its denomination,
I that it is easy to carry about,
j and that no man has ever refused
to trade his surplus goods for
gold.
"Silver is the money of man
kind. That is the type of money
the masses, the common people
have." McDermott dcelared.
"That is why Washington and
Jefferson and so many of their
followers advocated bimetalism."
Beginning with an account of
conditions in England in 3S60, the
speaker related the march of
events which caused every major
power in the world to go on the
gold standard between that date
and 3918. t'nited States following
step in 1873.
The four occurrences of paper
money in this country with an ex
planation of the significance of
each were offered by Mr. Mc
Dermott, finishing with a descrip
tion of the present Federal Re
serve note of which every' dollar
in currency is represented by an
equal amount of gold in the gov
ernment treasury.
Offering a simple analogy for in
flation, the banking expert ex
plained that if an equal amount
of currency and packages were
placed on a table to which were
added another equal amount of
currency, the value of the pack
ages would have been doubled by
a mechanical raising of the prices,
or inflation.
"Roosevelt has not inflated hy
printing paper money," McDer
mott asserted, "altho many peo
ple have accused him of such ac
;tion. An investigation as to ,ne
I real secret to the lack of correct
money handlers in Washington re
j vealed the erroneous belief that
I money can be based on capital and
consumable goods."
I On the subject of politics the
I bank executive announced that
there are only two political be
I liefs in the world, those that want
;a republic and those that want
! a dictator "Our people left Eu
rope to escape the worst of all
tyrannies, the tyranny of state.
Let our Constitution live to in
spire our posterity."

Nebraska Professors Predict
No NRA Revival and No Dic
torial Rule From Democratic
Regime.
(Continued from Page 1.1
the next administration will be
more conservative because all the
emergency measures that were de
manded have already been
passed."'
No New NRA,
Mr. Stoke expressed the opinion
that there would be no new NRA
organization and he favorably
lauded the campaigning done by
President Roosevelt. Roosevelt car
ried the burden of campaign al
most entirely on his own shoulders,
and altho Mr. Farley did work in a
quiet and unspectacular way, the
president should feel a real per
sonal victory. As far as Landon is
concerned, about the only thing he
can do is to just retire from the
public as gracefully as he can,"
the political science professor
added.
"The threat of dictatorship al
ways comes from the minority
party rather than from the ma
jority party." exclaimed Prof Karl
Arndt of the economics depart
ment, when he was queried about
the possible power the president
could assume. "Altho possibly the
coming' administration may not
adopt a new form of the jka,
sooner or later business itself will
be forced to adopt some system
comparable to the old NRA. The
election was not the result of
acute strategy but was based more
on personalities. The inflation with
which some seem to be so seriously
concerned will have a few spectac
ular spurts, but on the whole, the
government will not make any de
liberate effort toward inflation,"
he pointed out. Mr. Arndt also ex
pressed the opinion that the new
administration would be more con
servative and that if the civil serv
ice system is revised it would
probably be extended thruout the
more prominent departments of
government.
Inflation i3 Necessity.
One professor, whose name was
withheld but is widely accepted as
an authority on business trends,
feels that inflation is almost a
necessity. "To glance at the stock
markets today one can see just
what is taking place. Stocks shot
up from $1 to $5 a share and U. S.
government bonds were in demand.
The future depends on just how
industry and business will in
terpret the landslide and a bal
anced budget depends entirely on
business confidence. I feel that the
temper of the country would not
allow another NRA." he pointed
out.
"Think of the tremendous power
the president would assume." said
Paul Zeis, instructor of political
science. "Willi ladio reaching
nearly all the people and the presi
dent already breaking up his an
nual speech to congress into many
shorter and broadcasted speeches,
he can control a great majority of
legislation. Whether the president
will assume more authority, as no
doubt the people have placed upon
him, the result remains to be
seen," Mr. Zeis pointed out.
To Revise Civil Service.
Professor J. T. Senning, profes
sor of political science, says: "It's
hardly possible for the president
to assume more authority than the
constitution will allow7 him. At
least in the light of what the Su
preme Court enacted, it would
seem impossible to inaugurate a
new N. R. A. Men in both the
Senate and House of Representa
tives will no doubt make a strong
drive to revise the Civil Service
laws. As these laws exist today
they are not specific enough and
when strengthened they will ap
ply to men holding head offices.
I 'consider Farley an exceptional
ly shrew organizer and he has an
unusually keen insight into po
litical strategy."
According to Prof. L. F.. Ayls
worth, professor of political sci
ence, and democratic landslide will
create a new social and economic
condition and will cast aside the
old system of government. "Al
tho there is a good side and a
bad side to the results, the over
whelming majority can possibly
invite cver-confidenre. I. however,
feel that the president will usurp
no more power, nor do I feel thai
u in run four venrs from now.
"It is m.v opinion that there will
be a constitutional amendment un
der this regime that will put na
tional affairs more under natioiml
control. President Roosevelt has
brought into Washington more
high class men of brains than haa
any other administration. Lau
doii just didn't impress the country
as being quite capable enough to
handle the situation, that's about
the onlv reason I could give for
his defeat," Mr. Aylswroth point
ed out.
Whether these six professors'
predictions will be correct re
mains to be seen. Today, oim
man knows President Franklin
Delano Roosevelt, the man at th
steering wheel of the United
States. What will he do?
