Youth Finds
Its Voice
Youth has found its voice. Today, to
morrow and Saturday, ubout 500 young peo
ple will present the needs of American youth
to their congressmen when they go to Wash
ington on the, second annual youth pilgrim
age, sponsored by the Aniericnn Youth con
gress together with junior sections of church
'.groups, political parties, peace organizations,
neighborhood houses and labor unions. Jobs
and education form the basis of the demands
which young America will present in Wash
ington. These are the two demands that must
be filled if young people are to find and fill
adequately their normal places in society.
The American Youth congress which is
sponsoring the pilgrimage is made up of
more than 30 young people's organizations,
ranging from the Student Peace service and
National Student Federation of America to
.. the National Council of Methodist Youth
and the National Negro Congress. Briefly
the pilgrimage is being made in order to
bring to the ears of the elected represent
atives youths' needs for jobs and education
and how their needs can be met through
legislative action.
The pilgrims will ask for extension of the
National Youth administration, called for in
the Schwellenbach-Allen resolution; passage
of the American Youth act; passage of the
Nye-Kvale bill to curtail military training in
colleges; passage of the Bernard CCC bill,
which would put the CCC under civilian con
trol and defeat of the Sheppard-Hill bill which
legalizes fascistic regimentation during war.
The general aim of this program is halting the

pective reader should beware lest
he neglect the older books which
have withstood the test of time in
favor of the current best sellers.
Perhaps the best fiction of any
century since the battle of Has

century.
Russia hat productd many writ
ers of the first class, but topping;
them all are Tolstoy and Dos
toevski!. The former created
"Anna Karenina," a character to
be portrayed later by glamorous
Greta Garbo. Count Tolstoy's
masterpiece was "War and
Peace," a magnificent novel of
some 1,500 pages, an epic of the
Russian pre-war life. Tolstoy in-
- eludes every yhase of life In this
great work, revealing the sordid
peasant existence, and the frivol
ous and petty behavior of the no
bles. Entertaining aa the best of
the best sellers, nevertheless,
"War and Peace." is as serious and
profound aa the best of the Eln
teins and Eddlngtons.
Dostoevski!, on the other hand,
is credited by many with the
world's beat novel of all time,
"The Brother Karamazov." One
brother is a priest, one a profes
sional soldier, and one an an
archistic and atheistic journalist.
Dostoevskii also wrote "Crime and
Punishment," weaving around his
philosophic ideas on the basis of
. responsibility a atory of the trials
and tribulations of the Siberian
exile. Though each of these books
. endeavors to solve such perplex
ing problems as the causes for ac
tion of the fallacies of condemna

should not forget that they are aa

Dutch Crack Back.
Dutch people had an opportunity
to crack back at the United
States for it dorraan attitude In
regard to international courts and
Institutions when Margaret Mit
chell protested the publication of
her prlxe novel "Gone With the
Wind" in the Dutch language
without permission. The diplomats
from the Netherlands replied to
the action of the United States
that the United Statea had refused
to jbln the Berne conference on
international ccpyrighta and
agreements aa well aa the League
of Nations, and that there existed
no agreement between the United
States and the Netherlanda on
this issue. MacMillan, the Ameri
can publisher of the book, argued
that the book had been published
in Canada which country was a
member of the Berne c.iference,
and consequently the agreement
was effective for that book. Dutch
publishers, however, eont'nue to
produce the book in great num
bers. UKewiae Chilean publishers
have nullified their Pan American
treaty with this eovntry, and art
puDusnmg me book in the Chilean
broru. .
Margaret Mitchell, the author,
should not complain, however, for
on this hook alone ahe has made
a fortune which runt into tlx

ject has been worn down consid
erably by the blows of erstwhile

frayed threada into a new cloth
that fascinates with its color and
glitters with its originality. "Ac
tion At Aquila" is aimed at those
southerners who still possess some
of their ancestoral hatred for the
"damn yankees;" It is aimed to
pacify the intense resentment
against Sheridan and other north
ern generala which was fanned into

say, to embarrass the southerners

further expansion of the American war ma
chine at the expense of the education and
economic security of American youth.
Houinning Monday and coiitiiniinjf
throuuh the week, the delemiles will testify
as witnesses in hearines on the American
Youth act before 'the I'nited States senate
committee on education and labor. The dele
gates will interview congressmen from their
states to impress upon them the local as well
as national needs of youth. During the stay
in Washington there will be an interchange
of ideas and experience nriong the pilgrims
and between them and people in the govern
ment which will be reflected in the further co
ordination of youth work in the coming year.
The idea behind the pilgrimage harks
back to the days of "town-meeting democ
racy," or when the electorate could express
itself verbally and in person. At the meet
ing of the American Youth congress in Mil
waukee last July a declaration of rights of
American youth was drawn up and said in
part: "Our generation is rightfully entitled
to a useful, creative and happy life, the
guarantees of which are: Full educational
and recreational opportunities, steady em
ployment at adequate wages, security in
time of need, religious freedom, civil liber
ties, and peace." This is their way of vital
izing these "rights."
To many the move on the part of n.'Hional
youth organizations may seem only an attempt
to create a sensation. To others it may appear
in a ludicrous light. And to still others it may
demonstrate that youth is becoming organized
through realization of its needs. The week's
events in Washington will probably reveal
that youth is more coherent, if not more artic
ulate than the little business men who were
the last to move on Washington.
LINCOLN CATHEDRAL
CHOIR NOTES
The Lincoln Cathedral choir,
composed of University of Ne
braska students and alumni, is
one of the outstanding Nebraska
organizations. It has repeatedly
brought credit to the university
and the state.
The choir has attained national
prominence by its two trips to
the east in the past and the forth-
broadcasts. In New York the
cnoir appeared at Carnegie hall,
Riverside church, and Rockefeller
center plaza. A series of weekly,
non-commercial broadcasts will
begin March 11 over CBS at 2:45
p. m. central standard time.
The recent action toward af
filiating the choir with the uni
versity has not yit been arted
upon. According to a student vote,
the popular opinion is for surh
action but no formal step has yet
been taken.
Hold Sunday Vespers.
During- the last two seasons, the
choir has been conducting Sunday
vesper services which have ex
emplified its spiritual objectives,
i. e., the founding of such a Great
Cathedral where people of all
faiths and races may unite in
worship. John Rosborough, direc
tor of the choir, state that it is
not the purpose of the vesper con
certs to found a new church or a
new religion, but rather to help
the student grow stronger and
better in the light of his own
faith.
The broadcasts, entitled "Whith
er Youth," will be divided into
two parts the music of the choir
and the spoken word. The latter
uses a theme in which youth is
portrayed as starting on a pil
grimage in search for the reali
zation of a beautiful dream. Youth
views the Bible story of Ruth por
trayed in a series of pictures (one
in each of the six broadcasts).
From these he draws a spiritual
interpretation and each leads him
nearer to his goal. At least he re
afcee his dream a Great Cathe
dral where all mankind lays aside
credal and racial barriera to wor
ship God in unison.

Thursday, Saturday
Dear Mr. Herbert;
On behalf of our readers, a
thousand thanks for your promise
to write up Paul Hindemlth'a
concerts in Chicago, and for your
pilgrimage there to the American
Music Festival.
The latter seems to have made
a dour and mournful impression.
Your criticisms were in diverting
contrast to a message from our
friend Vlnce, that fairly bubbled
over with confidence in the future
of American music.
Outside of what can be gleaned
from phonograph records, we suf
fer here from a dearth of native
music. The jazi orchestras of the
vicinity pretend to ' be nothing
more than dance bands, hence
they are scot-free of the least
artistic merit. In the same way
Mozart's mlnuett, Schubert'a
dances, and Chopln'a mazurkas
did not make much headway till
these composers had transcended
the narrow limits of music in
tended merely for dancing pur
poses. Conoertt Draw from Europe,
Our local concerts have contin
ued to draw from the treasure
house of European music. Largely
out of eastern Europe came the
program that Mr. Lentz conducted
last Sunday with the University
of Nebraska's Symphony Or
chestra. The Russian composers
Moussorgsky and Glazounof were
buttressed, in the afternoon's se
lections, by three central Euro
peans, Goldmark, Smetana and
Haydn. Haydn't difficult and
probably spurious 'cello concerto
In D featured the orchestra and a
soloist from the school of music,
Miss Bettie Zabriskle.
Most of the other European
climes were heard from in concerts
and recitals taking place here
lately. A concerto gross by the
Italian composer, Antonio Vivaldi,
formed the nub of some music
that the Lincoln String orchestra
gave last week in the Cornhusker
hotel.
Both the program and the ren
dition did the performers much
credit. Those of us who attended
were therefore doubly flabber
gasted at the small audience pres
ent. It ia now known that the
concert was deliberately boycotted
by cliques because of the orches
tra's alleged sympathies, and the
cliques' counter sympathies In the
Cathedral Choir debate (still go
ing strong on our campus).
Warfare Shows Vitality.
Doubless this guerilla warfare
Is a sign of vitality and aware
ness; not controversy but indif
ference Is the real enemy of music,
as of any other art. Yet one feels
only derision and scorn for big
otry; and it was sheer bigotry
that mislead many into absenting
themselves from such a splendid
concert as that of last Tuesday
at the Cornhusker.
Since you have always carried
a soft spot for French music, there
is one other bit of news that sould
strike home.
The French Club and its viva
cious faculty advisor, Monsieur
Jean Tilche, became restive the
other evening; during the club's
regular bi-monthly meeting. It
must have been spring fever. In
the twinkling of an eye, they pro
mulgated a full agenda of activ
ities for the coming months that
sounded like a university in minia
ture: private stagings of plays,
art exhibits and lectures, gallery
excursions, movies and slides,
weekly teas, dining out at French
cuisines, poetry recitals, conversa
tion and discussion groups, truest
lectures from various departments,
and a Romance language depart
mental newspaper.
Club To Study French Music.
Best of all, they are scheduling
concerts to illustrate the develop
ment of French music, for which
the club will draw upon the vast
repertory of phonograph music as
well as play host to leading soloists
in campus musical circles.
The series opens on Wednesday
March 16th. Mozart's adventures in
Paris will be related by a guest
speaker (Madame de Pompadour
had designs on young Mozart, you
know), and then his heavenly D
minor Piano Concerto will be
played.
This is only a starter! What a
joy It will be to hear the master
works of Roland de Lassus, Jos
quln de Pres, Lully, Gluck, Berlioa,
Debuivsy, Faure, Ravel, and the
French opera makers such as
Gounod, Bizet, and Saint Saens!
The concerts will take place in
congenial surroundings. Indeed the
French club hopes to decorate the
hall with famous paintings con
temporaneous with the music to
be played on a particular evening,
Admission will be free, and every
one is welcome except petty poli
tics and the cathedral controversy,
which will be banished to the cold
depths of the river Seine!

GUSSIE FINDS
A 'RED' LETTER
Gussle Larklns, our mniill town
friend from up northwest way, is
beginning to like the atmosphere
around here. "Everything seems
and smells so home like around
here," Gussie says. But Gussie,
who Is the laziest creature we have
ever aeen, sat down in the office
yesterday, A mouse ran across the
cement in front of him. Feeling a
due sense of chivalry toward the
women of the office, Gussie went
right after the little mammal. He
dug his hand into the jagged hole.
Cockroaches, clgaret butts, and a
piece of paper was all ho could
find. He opened the paper, read
it, and came to us breathlessly,
'There's a red on this campus.
The decrepit letter read:
Hat the university a place
from which every student who
attends will come with a well
rounded "liberal education," or
more important, hat It become
an institution which will serve as
an "employer" to the student
who it not wanted loafing at
home? The university is no
longer the Institution for only
those desiring an education; it
now opens its doors to all young
men and young women who at
tend because they have nothing
else to do, and feel that they
might just at well enjoy the
pleasures which only a group of
students desirous of having a
good time could bring about.
When the depression brought
about a scarcity of positions and
conditions in which the high school
graduate would no longer be
thrown Into a job, the university
immediately argued that "if a per
son were not a college graduate,
his life's work would be of a low
order." On the curfare, such an
argument seems logical. If wealth
is set up as the yardstick of suc
cess, however, observe the educa
tions of Henry Ford, John D.
Rockefeller, Mr. Instill, or Mr. Mel
lon. The knowledge that these men
attained did not come from a uni
versity. Mr. Ford, Mr. Rockefeller,
Mr. Insull and Mr. Mellon needed
no "university education to be suc
cessful." If they were to attend a
university today, however, no
doubt they would be students de
sirous of securing an education.
Because the depression
brought about, at first, then, a
decrease In the number of
pupils, the university was forced
to adopt a tystem of advertising
comparable to that of a chain
store. Later, when the stocks
"had hit the rocks." proud fa
thers who had placed their
money In tafer tecurities were
told that the university wat the
place for their tont and daugh
ters. The idea that "to be suc
cessful now a student must se
cure a university education,"
gained momentum, and more
and more ttudentt attended the
university every year. Studentt
attended school when they were
seemingly unable to exist in
their stingy basement rooms
that reeked with oil stove fumes.
Students attempted to attend
the university by living on a
dally diet of hamburger loaf,
others lived In luxury, having
good-looking clothet and shiny
new automobiles., Eduactort

When the university found it.
self flooded with students, it
realized tnat its advertising had
been successful, and soon It ve.
allzed the fact thnt the greater
the number of students, the more
fruitful Us appearance would be to
others desirous of securing a
"liberal education." The university
became aware of the fact that it
could become an institution of
great Importance, Under the false
assumption that the more students
securing a "liberal education," the
more educated the nation might
become, the institution has made
itself Into one of profit and bus
instituted somewhat degenerated
influences to appeal to every
"would-be" student. Today some
universities have hired football
teams to play under the colors of
the school in order to present a
show window of the Institution.
We find, then, a university of
today entirely different from
the university of ten yean ago.
The purposes are different, the
metodi are different, and the
results are different. University
leaders argue that economic
conditions today are different
from those of the early days of
Mr. Ford, Mr. Rockefeller, Mr.
Insull, or Mr. Mellon. Such an
argument is false. Competi
tion today may be greater, but
the real competitors today are
no greater In number. Although
the university turns out many
more ttudentt than It did ten
yean ago, It turnt out ne more
capable students than It for
merly did. The dogma that "a
university education It neces
sary in this day and age" has
been an outgrowth of the de
pression. The solution to the problem
falls fully upon the university.
How ran such an institution deal,
on one hand, with the student
really desirous of securing an
education, and, on the other hand,
with the student who attends the
university because he has nothing
else to do?
Only whon the university be
comes an educative Institution In
place of an economic institution,
and only when the serious minded
student is freed from the rulings
made for the "playboys" will the
university accomplish the purpose
for which it was founded.
