FUTURE GOVERNMENT . . .
University of Nebraska students with an interest in
campus affairs will vote today on candidates for the stu
dent council, the board of publications', Ivy Day orator and
for a number of Ag campus officials.
But the election gives promise of being nothing more
than the usual lack-luster ballot casting which is the rule
rather than the exception in so many campus elections. In
several instances there will be no competition because only
enough candidates to fill the required number of positions
have filed for office.
Such a condition is the result of the absence of poli
tical parties on the campus. It is too late this year, to do
more than make use of the write-in space on the ballots.
But that is the only alternative for voters who do not care
to have their representatives hand picked.
Because of the apparent shyness of any formal campus
political organizations, today's balloting will produce a
hollow mockery of the democratic principles of representa
tive government.
The time element has become a considerable influence
in this year's election. With the complete slate of candi
dates kept from the voters until the day of the election,
there is no chance for any genuine judgment of the candi
dates. One of the first deeds by the next student council
should be the establishment of an election rule to provide
definitely for at least two weeks between the closing of
filings and the day of election. This much time is needed,
especially when the elgibility checking of all candidates
further limits the time between the presentation of the
complete slate and election day.

THE DAILY NEBRASKAN
Editor:
We must question the sincerety
of various political groups who
pledged for student political alert
ness in this column only last week.
Mr. Morrow and Mr. Ells, presi
dents of the Young Democrats and
Students for Stassen respectively,
connected the Wallace movement
with such phrases as "selling their
souls to Moscow" and "communist
apologists." In answer to this,
the University Students for Wal
lace tendered an invitation to a
public discussion (minus the name
calling) on the "bi-partisan foreign
policy" which they support. This
challange has gone unheeded. If as
spokesman for two major political
organizations on the campus, these
gentlemen were sincere in their
plea for political awarness, then
surely they .should welcome an op
portunity to give students a chance
to hear both sides of this vital is
sue. Therefore we reiterate: Univer
sity of Nebraska Students for Wal
lace cordially invites the "bi-partisan
foreign policy supporters"
(Young Democrats, Students for
Stassen, or their coalition) to a
public discussion on these ques
tions. Shirley Sabin

pointed Anglo-American liaison
officer in London for the World

land this summer.
Caraker has done exclusive lit
erature research with the Federa

scienlists. During the 1946-47 sea-1
son, he delivered a series of talks'
throughout the United States on
his findings for thisr committee.
"The world is silling on an
earthquake which might erupt at
any moment," Caraker declared in
a statement to The Daily Nebras
kan. At tonight's meeting, sponsored

ker will discuss world government
