Honors Day . . .
Scholarship will be the order of the day next Tuesday
when high ranking students in all colleges of the university
will be recognized at the annual Honors Day Convocation.
We too often forget that our purpose in going to classes
here is education. Students who have kept that aim in
mind deserve more recognition than they usually get. The
Honors Convocation gives the rest of the university a
chance to congratulate these students.
Chancellor Gustavson, who will be the featured speaker
at 10 a. m. Tuesday, by this time needs no introduction to
the student body. This is his second opportunity to ad
dress the entire campus and is an even better chance than
the first, since the coliseum holds many more listeners than
the Union ballroom. His topic, "Civilization's Challenge to
Your Generation," is sure to present us, as students with
an idea of the problems facing us as we take up duties as
citizens of the world, and how to solve them intelligently.
Classes are being dismissed for th convocation, so the
coliseum should be filled, both to honor the students and
to learn from the Chancellor.
We're Sorry . . .
They tell us the war's over, but the shortages go on.
Due to one of these still-prevalent shortages, newsprint,
the Daily Nebraskan will appear only as a four-page paper
five times a week.
We had hoped to increase the number of pages in the
paper before the end of the semester, but instead we have
been forced to stop issuing our usual eight-page paper even
once a week- The choice was one of either cutting down
the number of copies printed a day or abandoning the eight
page once a week. Since there are barley enough Daily Ne
braskan's to go around now, we took the latter course.
As soon as there is any let-up in the newsprint situ
ation, we will expand the size of the paper. Until then, our
apologies.

Dr. G. Paul Butler, book editor
of the New York Mirror, divided
his convocation speech "Book
Magic" into two parts, the fic
tional and the non-fictional.
Dr. Butler expressed his opinion
as to which of the many novels
written in the Last two decades
holds the roost interest for the
greatest number of readers. This
book, according to Dr. Butler who
publishes Lists of worthwhile lit
erature several times each year,
is "Put Off Thy Shoes." written
by ti year old E. L. Vaynich. Mr.
Vavnich published the book in
1297.
Recommended as fit for the
more mature college students'
mind and for faculty members
was "The Wind It - Shakes the
Barley." hy Bank, The "Men
Only" designation was given to
the novel "Holdfast Gaines." This
is the story of the struggles of
an Indian who attempted to bring
peace between his people and the
white settlers in the territory of
Kebr&ski and neighboring states.
"H e n r y Adams and his
Friends," a collection of 750 let
ters by Adams was compiled for
both professors and students. Dr.
EuUer said that any adult Inter
ested in politics would enjoy
Letters to KernuV by Theodore
Roosevelt. In this he discloses his
ideas, thoughts and interests.
Variety of subjects discussed
was shown by the review of "The
Vorld Grows Bound My Door,"
by Fairchild, an evaluation of
the delights of gardening, and
"Babies Don't Bounce," by Sulli
van, written for the instruction
of newlyweds on the care of
babies. I

President Truman voiced the
opinion of the nation's consumers
when he asked U. S. industry to
cut prices. So far industry has
paid little attention to the con
sumer's plea.
True there have been some
token reductions Ford and Ply
mouth, in the automotive field
but the trifling amount of these
reductions shows them to be
nothing but publicity stunts. 1946
was the most profit-rich year in
the history of U. S. industry. Its
net profits were over five billion
dollars. This was despite work
stoppages and post-war reconver
sion problems. With many of these
problems solved, industry can af
ford to price cuts by cutting prices
it would solve other problems.
If industry is to evade govern
ment control, it must accept its
responsibilities. Nq longer can it
sanction phrases as "as much as
the traffic can bear." There is
some sentiment among employers
to teach labor a lesson by pocket
ing the profits of the boom years
and letting labor suffer in the en
suing recession. Tactics like this
can only hurt management in the
end. The government acted in
good faith with industry when it
abolished the OPA and the excess
profits tax.
The government took these off
because industry said prices
would return to normal sooner if
industry had a free hand to pro
duce and compete. They have
produced, competed, and profited;
yet, prices have risen from their
'46 level. Labor has not profited
from their wage increases. In
fact, some have gone so far as to
say that the wage increases and
subsequent price increases which
negated previous wage increases,
were calculated to make labor
appear unfair and overdemand-ing.
