PAGE 4 Coiiimittcc Reports Told At Council Nineteen members of the Stu dent Council took advantage of Wednesday's meeting by airing views on various campus functions prevalent to student body opinion from organizations. Included were the possibility of dismissal of classes the day of Homecoming, the extenuation of Thanksgiving vacation as a trav eling aid to students, and where the authority lies in removing stu dent organization heads. Nothing definite was decided on these matters, but consideration will be given at later meetings. Dance Proposal indorsed. The most important report of the meeting was the approval of the dance band proposal by the faculty committee on student lairs With this endorsement, proposal is now valid.

Vladi mir Lavko, committee chairman, in announcing the meeting said that "all discerning students are invited to join to tackle the prob lems related to bringing more DP's to our campus, and to help those already among us to ad just themselves." Lavko pointed out that '"any person for a better world today realizes that it takes more than good intention." He continued that "basic world problems are not achieved in the verbal ab straction of the classroom, in wishful thinking, however ideal istic it may be," but rather "there must be a way of working out problems in the everyday give and take of human relation ships." All students are urged to help in solving these manifold prob lems. The reward will be a better appreciation of different cultures and a contribution to the stu dent's own emotional maturity in human relations. n ' AMERICAS faa&dt jforTT 4-1. THE DAILY NEBRASKAN Economist . (Continued from Fage 1) (3) Supplies of agricultural commodities and their distribu tion between users or markets. (4) Bargaining conditions un der which farm supplies are mar keted. Dr. Wells concluded that since the consumption of food in the country today is 25 above pre war years but that food supplies are 35 greater than prewar lev els; a good foreign market is nec essary for American farmers un less they are willing to face acre age and marketing adjustments. He said another relatively good year for farm exports is in sight but the longer-run problem is still unanswered. This, he said, is the most difficult single question in the whole farm field. The economist said that farm prices are on a downward drift. This trend is being felt .severely by many farm families and it must be halted soon, he declared. The entire field of agricultural programs will be discussed at a special panel discussion Thursday morning. Participants will include Wells, Dr. T. W. Schultz of the University of Chicago, Kirk Fox, editor of Successful Farming; Sam McKelvie of Wood Lake; and Frank W. Reed, slate PMA chair- Union to' Teach Square Dancing "Swing your partner, alamande left." You don't know what they mean? Then by all means find out.
