DAILY NEBRASKAN Wednesday, November 6, 1940 dubAiaL - - foMKWit - - SullsdiiL It is DAILY NEBRASKAN tradition That when the editor is gone His pinch-hitters must stick To the subject of Hollyhocks on the mall. (The flowers that bloom in the spring arc not exactly forbidden cither.) Well, The flowers that bloom in the spring tra-la Have nothing to do with the case. Hie Nebraskan's on the spot You see why. . . . The "Barb" is paid for by a flat appropriation of $250 from the student publications fund, which consists of DAILY NEBRASKAN profits plus Corn husker profits. Naturally, we feel a bit concerned over what appears in a pub lication to which we contribute so much. When the "Barb" was approved, its sponsors promised the publications board and the DAILY editors that the paper was to be used solely for "or ganizational purposes" and not to ballyhoo the barb party. With great shak ing f heads they disclaimed any intentions of using Ihc bulleting to do any po litical bandwagoning. For. . . The Student Council ruling on election has it that no material may be printed, mimeographed or... you know the rest... on behalf of any political candidates. On Mrf one of visterdav's "Barb, over no one s name, under no head line, not in quotes, supposedly loading from the story above, we read: "because politics is only a means, do not forget that for the present it is an indispensable means. Only thru a united Barb front may the Barb ideal be realized, may class line be erased, and the advantages of the Barb Organization achieved. "When men like our last year's president, Art Hendrickson, worked five to six hours a day for the Barb cause. . .is it asking too much for each Barb to take 15 minutes off three times a year to vote?" If this is not urging support for the Barb candidates what is it! For how else can the barbs support the "Unite Barb Front" except by voting for its candidate? On page two, one-inch letters in black type ask "What Has Ilucftle got!'' and the story answers, "The Barbs have come to rely on Gilbert Hueftle. Whether sustaining a rally with his enthusiasm, or carrying out a job requiring patience, too. People instinctively like 'Gib'. . .No, there's no doubt but that 'Gib can be counted on for results." Now, what unaffiliated student active enough in barb organizations to call himself a "Barb" docs not know that "Gib" is the "Barb Front's" can didate for junior class president? The DAILY, indeed, is willing to give the "Barb" another chance, that is, will wait until next Tuesday, campus election day, to pass judgment on the "Barb's"' honorable intentions. Will the Council?

A Gallup poll recently pointed out that the majority of Americans believe the British are holding our first line of defense and helping them is more impor tant than merely trying to steer away from the conflict. Students, however, have repeat edly shown their tendency toward isolationism and their strong de sire to avoid another war. For two years the Surveys has been gaug ing collegiate sentiment the nation over. It has found, for example, that majorities (in October 1939) would not volunteer should the U.

These opinions have been tem pered somewhat by the impact of recent events such as the fall of France, U. S. conscription, and the spread of the war. An indication of this cooling of opinion is the large group, comprising 45 per cent of the students, who at this time approve helping England, even if we eventually have to fight Why does the majority of stu dents beheve that our efforts should emphasize our keeping out of war?
