Vital Functions Performed
From its beginning, WSSF has

agency for relief purposes. It has
performed a vital function on the
American campuses in overcoming
isolationism and in creating a
more realistic awareness of the
world situation in which the
United States must play its part.
In a day of great international
tension, student relief looms large
as a means of promoting under
stnading among nations. It is im

Sigma Tail Award

Gustavson Sees
In World Cooperation Role
"I think a down-to-earth con
versation between a Lincoln busi
ness man and one, say in Goth
enburg or Stockholm, would do
more than all the diplomatic
languages exchanged between the
two countries in the past half
dozen years," said Chancellor
Gustavson before the Lincoln Ki
wanis club Friday.
Dr. Gustavson said he based this
conclusion on first hand observa
tions during his recent month's
trip to Sweden. He said he be
lieved business men are in a bet
ter position to promote goodwill
between nations than diplomats.
"Everywhere I went in Sweden
from the ship building ports in
the south to the iron mines inside
4-the Arctic circle I was asked re
peatedly by the Swedes, "What do
we have that we can trade with
America?" Chancellor Gustavson
stated. "Trade between nations is
often the cause of friction be
tween nations, so why not send
large numbers of American busi
nessmen to Sweden to see what
they can sell and buy from
Sweden."

Solicit Aid
From NU Prof
Specialist in local government.
Dr. A. C. Breckcnridge, univer
sity political scientist, has been
asked to help Beatrice citizens de
cide which form of city govern
ment they want.
The Beatrice Junior Chamber
of Commerce appointed Breckcn
ridge as a research consultant to
study the three existing home
rule charter city governments in
Nebraska. Communities of over
5,000 are given the right under
state constitution, to decide their
own form of government. Omaha,
Lincoln and Grand Island have
formed their own type of city
government.
In the November elections Be
atrice voters approved a proposi
tion to elect a home rule charter
convention. On Feb. 15 a special
election will be held there to
name 15 delegates to the conven
tion which will write the charter.
At a second special election next
summer Beatrice voters will ballot
on the home rule proposal.
Dr. Breckcnridge will also make
a study of city-manager plans,
mayor-council type, and commis
sion forms. He will give Beatrice
citizens information on city gov
ernment in Nebraska and similar
sized communities in the United
States.
