A bestial desire-destruction
With a little Ingenuity, fault can be found
In any institution on earth. And a few suggestive
though groundless questions can make these in
stitutions appear crooked, inefficient, or misman
aged as the person asking the question desires.
But does the fact that nothing is above criti
cism, justify so many people going out of their
way to find trouble, and without investigating the
true state of affairs, championing dostructionism.
Like playing a game, sensationalists seize on
rumors, and love to see what antagonism they can
arouse. They seek to justify such actions on the
grounds that persistent attacks will improve the
particular things in question.
If this were the case, more power to them.
But their explanations can be accepted only if they,
In the same "attitude for Improvement," offer
better alternatives for the existing affairs. And
if they can't offer such alternatives, and from con
tacts with them in the past we know they seldom
can, they must admit that their critical attitudes
are nothing more than hangovers of a bestial desire
to destroy.
Here at Nebraska this condition has given
Tent to a general antagonism against the health de
partment, phases of the Student Union work, and
a number of student organizations. Many of the
complaints may be justified; With regards to the
health department it is probably true that some
students don't get two dollars worth of good out
of it, and there may be ways its services can be
made more effective.
But those who are raising the biggest objec
tions, are the ones that have studied the problem
least They are the ones that have no concrete
suggestions for improvement, but have hit upon
these organizations as objects of criticism. And
they champion whatever group can run down these
institutions most. They seem to feel a university
student antagonism, and seem to feel that the in
terests of the administration are something distinct
and contrary to the Interests of the students. Else
there could be no explanation for the antagonistic
feeling.
Since our interests are all the same, the crea
tion of something better, lets offer constructive
suggestions for improvement yes, but guard against
needlessly and groundlessly questioning the activi
ties of any group. Let's ge' eta before we form
opinions; so that the bestial -eaire for destruction,
can be countered by reason, and forces of construc
tion can triumph.

Here are the answers to the
questions on campus rules of be
havior which were run in yester
days DAILY. The questions and
answers were compiled by Doro
thy C Stratton and Helen B.
Schleman with the help of stu
dents in colleges from Maine to
California and published in their
new book "Your Best Foot For
ward". The book is available at
the university library.
The answers.
1. Sometimes if you see that
such a situation is about to arise,
you can avert the difficulty by
getting the information quickly
from another person. Otherwise,
there is nothing to be done except
to say, "I'm very sorry, but I
can't remember your name at the
moment.
person should give his name im
mediately.
2. In small schools, being a
student in the same college serves
as sufficient introduction for a
greeting on the street or for con
versation. In large schools, being
a member of the same class (un
less it is a large lecture section
of several hundred students)

"Study of Luther's Catechism."
Methodist
Methodist Council meeting at
the Student House at 7:15 a. m
with a meeting cf Kappa Phi at j
3 p. m.
On Wednesday at 7:15 a. m. a
half hour Lenten Service will be
held. At 5 p. m. of the same day
Kappa Phi cabinet meeting and
dinner will be held. Coaching con
ference for vacation Bible school
workers will be held on Thursday

A social hour will be heid be
ginning at 7:30 p. m. A bird hike

serves the same purpose. If you
are in doubt, it is much better to
speak and be friendly than to
ignore the person.
3. There are four types of
titles that you will encounter fre
quently on the campus. Unless
you know that an individual pre
fers not to be addressed by title,
an administrative officer or a pro
fessor should be given one of his
titles in the classroom, in his of
fice, on the street, and at col
lege social functions.
4. Probably the best general
advice on sandwiches is to be
neat and don't ever let yourself
look greedy. Tiny sandwiches of
three or four bites certainly do
not need to be broken or cut into
Aid via the St. Lawrence
Headed for a senate battle is one of the controversial project
of recent decades the St Lawrence Deep Sea Waterway.
The advent, of this issue is due to the fact that Prime Minister
Mackenzie King, of Canada asked President Roosevelt to deal with
the waterway as a part of the aid-to-England program in consider
ing the exigencies of Canada's war-time needs.
President Roosevelt replied that he considered the project one
of vital necessity and that It should be started immediately. Con
sequently, an executive agreement was negotiated and signed on
March 20. For the United States, J. P. Moffat, minister to Canada,
Adolf Berle, associate secretary of state and Leland Olds of the Fed
eral Power Commission signed the agreement. The Canadian group
was headed by Mackenzie King.
The estimated cost is placed at 266 million. Dams at Iroquois
Point, and in the Long Sault Rapids are planned. The channel will
be made 27 feet deep, all locks In the side canals will have a 30-foot
capacity. Since this is at present an executive agreement, it will go
into effect If the house and senate vote the money which they can
do by a majority vote.
That is important because former attempts to Inaugurate the
waterway have ta"ken the form of a fotmal treaty between the
United States and Canada. Such a treaty was supported by Presi
dents Hoover and Roosevelt, but has consistently failed to pass the
senate. The last vote was taken March 14, 1934, when the senate
voted 46 for and 42 against the treaty. This was 12 votes short of the
requisite two-thirds for treaty approval.
At the present time, a number of senators are said to plan
to fight the appropriation request on the grounds that this is not
a defease need, hence it must be transacted if at all by a formal
treaty.
A powerful opposition drive is being conducted by various east
ern and southern cities and certain transportation committees. It
