Easter Message of Hope
When Daily Editor Clyde Martz wrote
the following editorial previous to Easter
Day, 1941, there was a war in progress,
a war which appeared far removed from
this nation.
On this Easter of 1943, the mean
ing of his writing takes on new and added
significance, gives hope to a harried
people.
A wicked world, torn with jealousies,
greeds and religious strife erusificd Christ.
They crowned him with thorns and with laugh
ter decried the immortal semblance of the
forces of good. They placed him in a grave,
saying his way of life was not for them, and
let greeds and tyrannies triumph thruout the
then known world.
Three days later, however, while the
faithful were still mourning his loss, and
while the greedy were not yet recovered
from their acts of crucifiction, the "good"
was resurrected, and in new glory filled the
hearts of man with a never to be forgotten
mesage: "Christ gave his life that man
might live. He arose from the dead showing
men that good will triumphs over wrong,
and that some day the Kingdom of God will
be erected on earth."
That is the Easter message. And more sig
nificantly with creator feelinc than over ho.
v n -
fore men will repeat that message all over the
world this Sunday morning.
Men on the battlefields of Yugoslavia and
Greece, men enslaved by totalitarian rule,
families homeless because of war from the air
pressed against the innocent, and families
starving in Belgium, Toland and France. All
these men of every denomination and every
way of life, will cry out in their hearts for the
fulfillment of that message.
The world is going thru a period of stress,
where values have no longer much meaning.
Hate and greed has temporarily suppressed
humanitarianism and love. In Asia, Russia
has suppressed the church, and has set up
material and regimented codes of faith.
Thruout Germany the church has been at
tacked, and has been instructed by the rulers

"It is right that the interests of the so-
called common people in a republic should al
ways be kept uppermost, but, if the republic
is to remain sound, it is imperative that the
discovery and development of the uncommon
people jn our ranks be carefully provided for.
Nowhere has initiative been more in evidence
than in the United Stales, and upon this
quality depends our whole conception of pri
vate free enterprise." Dean W. Malott, chan
cellor of the University of Kansas, emphasiz
es that individual initiative is the driving
force that accounts for all human progress.

Men Get Leave of Absence
. . Three Enter Service
Resignation of four agricul
tural extension men, three of
whom will enter military service,
were accepted Saturday by the
board of regents of the univer-iity.
A fourth extension man, J. C.
Swinback, county agent at Sid
ney, has resigned to accept an
other position. Those entering
military service are Marvin L.
Kruse, county agent at Ainsworth,
Howard Newton, county agent at
Albion, and Robert D. Tclkcy, ex
tension assistant in horticulture
at the college of agriculture.
The regents granted leaves of
absence to Michael Ginsburg, as
sociate professor of classics, and
Keith H. Lewis, assistant profes
sor of bacteriology, both of whom
have gone to military serivce.
Wesley C. Meierhenry, former
superintendent of schools at Re
publican City, was approved a
supervisor of correspondence ln
struction in the university exten
sion division. He succeedn N. L.
Frcdstrom, who has been made
assistant director of extension.
"Dictators dare not, permit, the untrnm.
moled and objective study of the institutions
and policies of government, but democracies
cannot live without it. In every land it is the
holders of irresponsible power, the possessors
of vested interests, and those who fear a gen-
ive government of the people, who are the
first to attempt to suppress the free discussion
of political questions. Liberal constitutional
democracies that know their true interests pro
tect and promote the unrestricted study of
political institutions and methods, because
their own welfare and progress depend upon
it." Prof. William A. Anderson of the Univer
sity of Minnesota, president of the American
Political Science association, makes the point
that political study makes democracy.

what sort of doctrines are to be taught. And
even in America men are ridiculing the
churches, with atheistic conceit are laughing
down the Biblical messages and with a cer
tain fatalism are saying love and peace are
impossible in this world.
Yet desnite the surmression. a suDDression
on three continents, and despite the skepticism
and doubt, men today everywhere are praying
for essentially the same things that this Easter
message symbolizes. They arc praying for a
resurrection. A resurrection, they cry out for,
where cood. love and humanity, will once more
rrnwd nut. of man's minds the hates, the .ieal-
. . a . A i 1 I
ousies and the greeds that have brought lortti
this war. And they live on with the laith mat
that resurrection will come.
TCvrrv neriod of strife Troduees a new
nwnkeninc. The war and suffering of the pres
ent will be replaced by a new happiness of the
future. Thru the gloom ot today sun snines
tlio lirirrhtnoss of tomorrow. It is this thought
that these men on the battlefields of Europe
t i
and of Asia and the starving and nomeiess
refuges of this war will have this Sunday.
At the present the forces of evil have
triumphed over the good. But only for a
while. As the Friday of the Crucifiction, is
followed by the Resurrection Sunday, so out
of this period of distress and fear will arise
a new day. Christ symbolizes in man's mind
everywhere that new day.
And that Christ will rise again!

Addresses
ASCE Group
Speaking before the student
chapter of the American Society
of Civil Engineers, Howara .
Peckwith, assistant national sec
retary of the ASCE, asserted Mon
day night that group action-
unionization is doing away won
Individualism in engineering work,
one of the last fieMs to b so affected.
The annual award made by the
Nebraska section of the ASCE to
the outstanding senior civil engi
neer was given to Milton Adler.
There have been efforts to limit
the number of people entering a
profession, Peckwith told the
group, and this will ' lead to so
cialization. He pointed out medi
cine as an example of this, espe
cially in England where the Bev-
eridge plan now being considered
in parliament calls for socialized
medicine.
A '26 graduate of Princeton
university, Peckwith has traveled
in 44 of the 48 states during the
past few months talking to ASCE
chapters over the country. He
came Into the position after work
