IVoiicf lo V-1 rraiis
There has been some misun
derstanding on the part of a
few veterans as to the obtain
ing of books or of non-exieiid-able
supplies more than once.
May we call attention to Item
No. 7 on the reverse side of the
purchase authorization which
states, "Vou may not purchase
on yonr veteran's account the
same item twice." For ex
ample, a book obtained by a
veteran the first semester, and
used during a subsequent se
mester in another course, may
not be obtained again. Hooks
and non -expendable supplies
that are lost, tolen, mutilated
or disposed of will not be re
placed at government expense.
During the rush of supplying
hook to several thousand stu
dents the first of the se
mester, it is inevitable that
some veterans may have had
a book or certain supplies re
issued to them. In such cases
you would be doing yourself
and the university a favor by
returning such items to the
store at once. Your veteran's
account will be credited the
proper amount, and it will not
be necessary later to ask you to
return the onauthoi ied items.

educational institutions to seek
the truth is inseparably linked
with the continuing strength and
effectiveness of American democ
racy. Encourage Education.
"We must persevere in our en
couragement and patronage of
education under all legitimate
auspices, in the persuasion that
its benefits will redound alike to
the nation and to all of us in
dividually. At the same time we
must avert the blighting hand of
official control from the instruc
tional material of education, leuv-
! ing it free to fulfill its mission in
the discovery and inculcation of
truth. We must take care that ed
ucation, with us, shall be in bond
age only to objective verity," tho
judge declared.
"Even in our national saciely,''
he continued, "There are count
less members who, out of one
consideration or another, would
gladly purchase a specious mn
, terial security at the sacrifice of
the very independence that prin
cipally distinguishes the United
J Stales from its sister nations. And
.along with other liberties they

prerogative of educating its citi

ardized intellectual formula.
Tongue-in-Cheek Freedom.
"That suggestion we must re

we may no longer speak, except
with tonetie in cheek, of Amer-
