How much national politics actually concern college stu
dents is an open question, but for those old enough to vote
it is definitely their business to view the issues. . . . Domestic
ar.d foreign questions sometimes vie for honors in the presi
dential campaign . . . this time no one denies that the war
is of top importance, and international relations head that
division. Diplomacy experienced statesmanship is neces
sary for the next four years. Both Roosevelt and some other
Democrats probably wish it weren't bad policy to change
horses in the middle of the stream, but Republican contend
ers Willkie and Dewey hardly make a shadow on the inter
national waters. And who is to say they've enough better
to offer on the home front? . . . Solving labor problems
won't become any easier. . .
The kind of people we like to write about: Sol.rr Margaret
"Min" Beetle ami business-ninnled Ivolierta Uurgess, who put
out the Nags for Servicemen this semester with scarcely a
liitch. . . When people didn't show up to work they did the
addressiii"; ami wrapping themselves. . . Little fanfare or pub
licity, just conscientious effort. This campus needs more,
like. Vin,
Swan songs of bygone editors usually include what is
wrong with the campus, or the faculty, or the administra
tion . . . that is, what ye ed thinks is wrong. . . After four
years on the Husker campus one finds lots of things to be
changed, but there are an equal number to remember and
keep the same . . . like Dr. Ruth Odell's cheerful English
classes; the green grass on the old campus in the spring;
the Union grill at four o'clock in the afternoon; the engi
neers with their slide rules and constant labs; the Social
Sciences hall, hub of the campus. . . And for changes we'd
mention higher salaries for profs; more participation in
extracurricular activities to gain experience rather than
honor; a revived enthusiasm for grades and knowledge; less
interest in individual politics and more in student welfare
in general by some who are supposed to help those going to
school. ...
For advice we stick our nose out and say: "War Council,
you're improving, keep on with service instead of self-advancement;
. . . Student Council, don't you have anything better
to do than inquire into the War Council's treasury? . . . Corn
Imsker staff, keep the book on time as you plan to do, even
if it takes extra work. . . Mortar Board, you have a good
eliance to pick your successors as you advocated doing, by
the results of work junior women put in. . . Xehraskan staff
coming up, keep up the competition among reporters they're
Ihe best group in years. . . To everybody, follow your resolu
tion next semester to study all the time ami not just during
finals. . . .

Last Tuesday the university joined the nation-wide 4th
war loan drive through the war council setting a $2,000 war
M.nnp sales goal. Joining a drive is one thing, but participa
tion in a campaign is artolher thing. Look at these results!
Tuesday the war stamp booth were, opened with deter
mination and deep purpose on the part of the student repre
sentatives who manned the selling posts. The results $42.05
from the entire student body.
Wednesday Tassels took over the sales job as their regular
war stamp day, but with the 4tb war loan drive as their major
selling point. Sales that day jumped to $229.75 with the
smaller ag campus contributing over half of the total, $140.40.
Yesterday student representatives again took over the
booths with these results: $100 of the total $13280 was pur
chased by one male student, a rather unfair proportion.
This condensation of sales fchows lack of sharing in a
nation-wide campaign. One student does more than his share
in proportion to the other contributions; one campus, the one
with fewer students, tops its sales records of several weeks
standing, and one campus body, with a goal of only $2,000,
lias reached the $404.72 mark, certainly not a good start.
During final week no war stamp sales campaigns will be
conducted, but following the exams a house to house drive
mil be staged.: Today is the last day for war stamp sales at
the four booths on city and ag campuses.
Eexnember when yoa join ft campaign, participate in it.
II.H.T.
Attention, University of Nebraska students :
We, the members of the campus War Council,
are not absconding with the Student "War Council's
treasury! And we are a little indignant that the
Student Council, presumably representing the stu
dents as a whole, seem to believe that we are not
to be trusted with handling the campus war treas
ury. Because that is what the War Council treasury
is the UN War Chest, donated entirely by UN
students for purposes to further the war effort on
the campus suggested by students through the me
dium of their War Council.
But since the Student Council, supreme govern
ing agency of all activities, has instigated an in
vestigation (as asked by their first quorum in weeks
at their January 12 meeting), we want to clear up
any misunderstanding which may have been caused.
Perhaps we should have published the yearly pro
posed budget, but so far as we know no other
organization has been obliged to do so. Anyway,
here are our main expenditures since the War
Council has had a treasury, our present expenses
and plans.
The treasury was established last year from
proceeds from the first War Show, "Red, Hot, and
Blue". Net proceeds were $239.36. Before this show
the war council had gotten along by a combination
of crawling on its knees in a suppliant attitude
before the other organizations' treasurers. In fact,
last year, we borrowed $150 from John K. Selleck's
office to provide the necessary bank for war stamp
sales.
Fifty dollars of the new treasury was imme
diately voted to the War Scholarship Fund, and
also the agreement was reached with the Student
Foundation, sponsoring organization of the Fund,
that any money left in the War Council treasury
after its demise at the end of the war would go to
this Fund. For this reason, we would like to build
up as large a reserve as possible.
Last year, the oi-monthly publication of the
mimeographed Rag Tags for servicemen, news-letter
forerunner of the present Servicemen's Edition of
the Ntbraskan, was a big item in the budget
Through the year $61.72 was spent in postage for
Rag Tags only.
Later last year the council voted to spend $50
to establish a separate war stamp reserve on the
Ag campus to be kept in the Finance office. Those
three expenditures total $11.72, leaving $77.64. A
total of $31.72 was spent that year on incidentals
Including postcards, postage, dance tickets and
ticket sales, phone bills to Senator Norris, paper,
and posters.
So at the end of the first year f the War
Council treasury, the balance carried over to the
present year was $46.54. OK, Mr. Henderson?
From the summer war council dance receipts, a
Union stamp bank merger with our bank, and bring
ing the $50 for Ag stamp booth back into ths
treasury at the beginning of this semester, the
treasury stood at $125.54.
It was voted to re-establish a bank of $75 out
at Ag. The bank was raised because sales were
booming at Ag. Of course this money still remains
in our treasury, but is, in a way of speaking, in
vested, and can be put to no use by us for expenses.
Recently the war council gave $25 to the AUF
drive. These figures total $100, so we have $25.54.
The Hallowe'en dance, after all expenses were
paid netted us $26.63, while incidental expenses up
to the present total $5.95, leaving a balance in the
treasury as of today, January 21, 1944, of $32.58.
The new-this-year Ag war council netted $32.25
on their Kalico-Khaki ball, $10 of which they con
tributed as a separate body to the AUF drive. The
Ag and City war councils have the same account
in the activity office, but keep separate records.
To help pay expenses for the forthcoming "Shoo,
Shoo, Blues'' war show, Ag is willing to lend City
their money, which gives us a total of $65.83 for
show expenses.
The show committee expects an expense of ap
proximately $125 for the production. So you can
see, if the tickets don't go like hot cakes, we will
not be traveling in the red, but stuck in it!
Crossing their fingers for a clear profit from
"Shoo, Shoo, Blues," the war council hopes to be
able to pay back WAA the $200 loaned for the war
stamp bank this year, and get the bank within our
treasury, so we won't continually have to ask other
organizations to finance the sales. These other
organizations have certainly been wonderful about
helping, however, and the whole campus owes them
a debt of gratitude.
If there are any. further questions or sugges
tions as to the spending of the War Coum-il treas
ury, any student is invited to attend our meetings
at 5 p. m. every Tuesday in 315 of the Union, o
contact any representative of the council.
Thanks for listening, if you got this far,
Pat Chamberlin,
President of the Student War Council.
