Dear Editor:
The third definition for "mill
tarism" in Webster's Colle;iate
Dictionary is "the policy of ag
gressive military preparedness." It
is this definition of "militarism"
that the author wishes to defend
not the idea of a military, totali
tarian state.
Mr. Constantine Brown stated
Sunday that the "American people

have permitted our armed forces
to degenerate below the level of
1919; our veterans, instead of tak

members of the armed forces and
many of the ex-members; our un

that R.O.T.C. is compulsory. Long
ago he became fed up with com
pulsory athletics and its phony
"sportsmanship" so he becomes
a definite "militarist," "a pro-
Nazi." Quite frankly he likes
R.O.T.C. work (but is mortally
afraid of even the idea of combat

possible follower of some dictator.

Such a strong political stranglehold has been put on activities and
campus elections that most of any life that was once present has
eb,bed away. Add to this the contempt that several thousand stu
dents have shown for such childish antics and the student portion
of campus life has been reduced to nil, benefiting neither the stu
dent nor the university. It is for this reason and no other that we
maintained a disgusted silence.
