No longer can every one enjoy the luxerios and se eurity of Nebraska's finest building. These statements, tho astonishing and somewhat in credible, are true. The quaint quirked workings of some legal mind, eoupled with pressure from private Lincoln business, have been the cause for the Union's troubles and have bothered officials for some time. The Union now must be clas sified as nothing more than a private club. Its membership now, it must be said, must be composed solely of students, faculty members, alumni, and members of the Student Union organization. Such a distorted classification has become nec essary to escape a distorted Social Security law, and, there fore, save the students money in keeping food prices at their present level. The Social Security law, altho it is not wholly the cause for the Union's strife, has caused no slight amount of agi tation on this campus, and every campus, before. Last year fraternities and sororities employing their own student waiters all fought the famous clauses VIII and IX of the law. Letters of protest were written to loyal fraternity alumni who were at the same time members of Congress. The Interfraterni ty Board of Control here dipped its fingers lightly into the situ ation but found the water too hot and gave up. At the present time only two fraternities are still fighting against payment under the law the others either having given up or not yet discovered. Fraternities now find they have no cause for fighting clause VIII which provides for old age benefit and consists of employe and employer match ing one percent of the salary. But they are fighting, and just ly so, against the unemploy ment compensation clause IX. The law excludes all corpora tions not employing eight per sons. Few fraternities hire that many people. But Social Securi ty officials have attempted to include in that number unpaid fraternity officers. Such an attempt is not just. The Union's case involves Buy a Package of Cigarettes with the 15c you can save on our 35c haircuts Liberty Barber Shop ,131 No. 13th , Meeraskan Than 7,000 Students tL'nt. many questions. Should stu dents, the majority of whom find it difficult to finance their way thru an education be hin dered in any way? Should' 'Po litical society exist for the sake of a noble living," as the state house inscription reads'? or should "An ignoble living exist for the sake of political so ciety?"

There is a distinct possibility, however, that Chamberlain is ac tually trying to force Hitler's hand, to force him to do what ru mors have credited Hitler with considering, that is, abdication. For the Chamberlain speech says, in effect, that England has no quarrel with the Reich (Cham berlain in his speech did not even mention the new partition of Po land), that England is fully pre pared to make peace with Ger many, but that it will refuse to consider any peace gestures till Hitler is gone. Allies possibly frightened. One sees here the subtle pos sibility that England and France, having made their war aim noth ing more definite than to wipe out naziism, have become fright ened at the prospects of fighting Russia as well as Germany, and also at the apparently increasing readiness of the average American to stay out of the war. The Chamberlain speech, which showed every outward sign of belligerency toward the Reich, in trinsically leaves the door wide open to Hitler, n mere is any truth at all in the "abdication" rumor. Several associates of Hit ler have said that Hitler does not enjoy ruling, and that he is per fectly willing to eave the govern ment to his self-appointed "heir," Field Marshal Goering. And so the whole world waits tonight, almost breathlessly, for (Continued on Page 3.) tivr rovn SEASOII TICKET THIS WEEK LINCOLN SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA CONCERT SERIES FEATURING Lawrence Tibbett, Baritone Ida Krehm, Pianist Zino Francescattl, Violinist Vronsky and Babin, Duo-Pianists Rise Stevens, Mezzo-Soprano Lincoln Symphony Orchestra and Guest Soloists Student Ticket dQ r A Good for 7 Concerts tj)t)3U On Sale Thi$ Week Only School of Music Office University of Nebraska Official Bulletin LINCOLN STMPHONT TRYOl'TS.
