MEXICO VIEWS MONROE DOCTRINE. The determination of the Mexican government not to weaken In its stand on the oil properties ex propriation program was reaffirmed by President Cardenas yesterday. Thus the hopes of those Brit ish and American oil interests who had with con siderable optimism watched world developments in the fond belief that they would lead the Mexicans to moderate their announced plans were rudely shocked. While American magnates will doubtless con tinue to forward protests and representations to the state department and discuss heatedly the un fairness of the action of the Mexican regime, it appears that the favorable response which expro priation has evoked from the peon, the backbone of Cardenas' support, has stiffened the government in its position. Yet more appears to be at stake than mere socialization of one portion of the natural resources of Mexico. At the same press conference the Mexi can leader said that the Monroe Doctrine "has ceased to exist with those characteristics with which it for merly was known." Rather, he laid emphasis on the present-day tendency towards mutual consultation and non-intervention as being the more desirable. It would almost appear that Cardenas fears the possibility of coercive action being taken by the United States in the oil troubles. Accordingly his condemnation of the past application of yie Monroe Doctrine as a unilateral program. On the basis of past experiences of Latin-American coun tries it must be admitted that the fears of the Mexicans are not without some slight foundation. The doctrine has been used far more frequently to protect the financial interests of the United States than to exclude European nations. Much is being said these days of the need for strengthening the bonds between the nations of the western hemisphere. In view of the distrust with which many of the smaller nations of the south even today still view the "colossus of the north," it would appear that amicable relations could in no way be better fostered than by a continued frank statement on the part of our diplomats that the application of the Monroe Doctrine by the United States as a unilateral doctrine is a thing of the past. THE "EMERGENCY" MILLIONS. The House of Representatives Friday approved wholeheartedly a $264,611,000 emergency outlay, principally for increases in army, navy, and coast guard personnel. The success of this emergency appropriation is viewed as indicating little concern ing the fate the 460 million dollars increase in de fense spending asked by President Roosevelt and the $1,300,000,000 fleet expansion program requested by the navy may experience when brought before Congress. All requests and demands to Increase the mili tary power of this country at least since 1914 have been based on the argument that should Germany ever conquer Europe, this country would need suf ficient military strength to protect the western hemisphere against German aggression. This belief in the inevitabtenoss of German aggression against us, should that country ever become supreme in Europe, is the result of superficial thinking and fear hysteria. ' , For this eountry would be allied against Ger many actively as soon as it appeared likely that that country would become supreme in Europe, without waiting for her to attack us. Should the almost Impossible happen should Germany con quer her rivals in Europe , she would be so com pletely occupied in organizing her conquered lands and holding them in subjection she would be un able even to contemplate aggression against a powerful nation over 3,000 miles away, supported by all the strength and resources of the western hemisphere. It thus appears that it would be In the nation's interest to encourage such sentiments as that de veloping in the Senate toward diverting part, or all, the 460 million proposed increase In defense spend ing to farm relief, the farmers being the only major vocational class whose incomes decreased last year, while people in other groups enjoyed Increased earn ings. Although a country's susceptibility to foreign attack increases as its military strength wanes, so does its susceptibility to involvement In foreign wars decrease with a lessening of military might.

Yes indeed. The park ing problem is a headache to the campus cop as well as to those students who live too far from the campus to walk. However, to jump on the faculty does not aid in dissolving the dif ficulty. For if there were not those reserved spaces, how do you think professors could park their cars in time to get to their classes? For that matter, who cares whether they get to classes at all? But that's beside the point Far more culpable than the hap less faculty are the scholars of fraternity and sorority row who live four or five blocks from the campus and yet must needs majes tically and luxuriously drive those four or five blocks to class every day. I'm sure Dr. Brady would frown on this practice which contributes to the degeneration of the human race. In the interests of strength ening collegiate youth, in an effort to promote better living and most important of all, in a desperate attempt to provide parking facili ties for those students who must drive to classes, I urge the limousine-owners of greek row to get out and walk. It's not very far. And you need the exercise. Lincoln man (who couldn't get parking space) Zu Locwenstcin teaches at Iowa Prince Hubert us zu Loewen stein, Austrian author and lec turer, will join the faculty of Iowa State College as visiting professor in international relations for the spring quarter according to an nouncement made yesterday by Dr. Charles E. Friley, president of the college. Last fall the exiled prince taught a special course in European prob lems on this campus and appeared before numerous university audi ences. Lancaster presides over polysci session Dr. Lane W. Lancaster, chair man of the department of political science, was in charge of the roundtable on local government at the recent meetings of the Ameri can Political Science association in Washington, D. C. Dr. David Fellman of the department also attended the convention. Rutledge appointed new library circulation head Miss Margaret Rutledge, Utica, has been appointed head of the circulation department of the uni versity library subject to approval of the board of regents, Dr. Robert A. Miller, library director, revealed yesterday. Miss Rutledge gradu ated from the university in 1930. She will replace Mrs. Consuelo Graham whose resignation will be come effective Feb. 1. Miss Rut ledge obtained a degree from the Illinois library school in 1931, and is now librarian for the Beatrice junior high school White, Stewart, Turkel debate with Creighton Dr. H. A. White, debate coach, and John W. Stewart, sophomore in the college of business adminis tration, and Harold Turkel, junior in the college of arts and sciences, engaged a team from Creighton university in a non-decision debate on the isolation question Friday noon before the Omaha Kiwania club. Nebraska took the negative. ht DailyMebiiaskm Ollkial Newspaper 0 Mwt Than 7.000 Studtntt THIRTY-NINTH YEAR Offkss Union BulMlnx Day a-y,g1i Nipht 2-7193.
