Red Cross
India Director Speaks At NU
K. Shanker Nigam, director of
the Junior Red Cross in India, was
guest at a Red Cross Board
luncheon Monday.
Nigam has been touring Lincoln
as part of a two-month tour
through the United States. After
leaving Lincoln, he will go to St.
Louis, Mo., Washington, D.C., and
then to Geneva, Switzerland, to
attend an international Red Cross
advisory council meeting.
In an interview Nigam said
that co-operation between the
Red Cross in the United States
and in India has been steadily
growing. India's closer co-operation
with the United' States is
not, however, a result of her
independence from Britain.
Political relations, he explained,
do not affect Red Cross relation
ships. India's Red Cross organization
is now an effective, well-organized
group, growing steadily since it
was formed 20 years ago. Emer
gency relief and health programs
have been stressed. Maternity
and child welfare, hospital wel
fare and ambulance work have
been other activities.
Nigma stated that he was
amazed at the wonderful .work
being done here on the University
campus and that it was the same
everywhere he went in the United
States.
' In his talk before the Red
Cross Board he stressed the
sanitation problem which is
being undertaken by the
Attends
Tonight
held during the last 21 years. She
began her work with the organ
ization, then called "Big and Little
Sisters," in 2930 by helping thorn
rewrite their constitution.
In 1932, she became sponsor
of a hobby group and was asked
to be sponsor of the organization
In 1935. Since that time she has
served as sponsor and .perma
nent adviser.
As indicative of the changes
which have taken place in the
organization since the first dinner,
Miss Piper pointed to the change
in the price of tickets from the
original 35 cents to $1.15 for Wed
nesday's dinner. The number of
coed Counselors has not materi
ally changed, however, since it
was raised from 65 to 150 in 1935.
According to Miss Piper, more
fhnn Aff hitr onH litllo cictfifc
usually attend the dinner. Aboul
350 are expected this year.
Other guests at the banquet
include Elcvera R. Christian
sen, Mary E. Mielenz, Dean
Marjorie W. Johnston, Mary
Augustine, Helen Snyder, and
the Rev. and Mrs. Rex Knowles.
A style show, presenting 21 1

ous campus occasions, will fol

Union Group

Snyder, committee chairman.

Gov. Peterson Speaks
To YM On Government
"The line between what is pro
per in government and what is
not is. extremely thin."
Gov. Val Peterson expressed
this opinion Wednesday at the
pre-legislative session of the Hi-Y
youth and government program
held at the University.
Policies now in existence,
Peterson said, are considered pro
per without further analysis. Gov
ernment support of public schools
is not contested, he pointed out.
Public housing, however, he added,
has met with varying degrees of
opposition.
Mechanisms of legislation, Pet
jerson warned, are not important
jin themselves. The danger, hei
said, is allowing mechanics to
'overshadow the purpose.
i "The hardest job of a legislator,
he said, "is to recognize the many
bills put before the legislature for
private interest and profit."
The majority of the 530 bills
presented during the last legis
lative session, Peterson com
mented, were of this nature.
