WpHnpsdav. October 29, 1952 Poga 2 EDITORIAL PAGE Freedom Vs. Fear man In the political limelight would want to work with a Republican Congress should he be elected to the presidency. And would, there fore, publicly say that he hoped for the elec tion of all Republican aspirants to the Senate. McCarthyism will undoubtedly appear as a word in future editions of the dictionary after a radio and TV speech Monday night by Sen. Jo seph McCarthy, Republican candidate for re-election to the Senate from Wisconsin. McCarthyism has come to represent the tactics used by the illustratious Senator in his attempts to rid the top-level of our government of Commu nists or those whose activities might be associated every human feeling of fear, insecurity and hat with Communism. Monday night Joe stepped be- red existent in citizens of this country. The dam fore the nation and 1,150 persons at a $50-a-plate age that McCarthy might have done to Stevenson's dinner In Chicago to allege and to insinuate that chances for the presidency is being soft-pedaled Gov. Adlai Stevenson has too close connections with by the Democrats. Perhaps whatever McCarthy Eisenhower did not condone McCarthy. The Me braskan condemns this man who has exploited Communists and ADAs for presidential comfort. McCarthy stood before the TV cameras and waved what he called authentic documents to prove Adlai's affiliation with professed Commu nists, left-wing writers and high officials of the Americans for Democratic Action, a left-wing or liberal group its title depends upon your politi cal affinity which brings fear into the hearts of many Americans. Joe McCarthy'g place In the, national state of mind now remains after his final blast at the Democratic nominee for president as al ways one of smear, insinuation, half-truths, comments taken out context, emotionally-filled words and demogaugic phrases. Perhaps Sena tor Joe can prove everything at which he hinted Monday night Terhaps the Democrats have no answer to the latest chargest from America's Senatorial smear. has to say from now on will have no effect on whether one agrees with or disagrees with him. That is, people have chosen their sides of the McCarthy fence alerady despite what he might! have had to say Monday night. The Nebraskan fervently hopes for the elec tion of Dwight Eisenhower to the highest office of our land. However, we cannot with an re servations at all go along with Senator McCar thy and his tactics. Fear has no place in the campaign promises and the final reality of free dom. R.R. Colorado Bleachers Letterip Thanks ... Dear Editor, Thank you for proclaiming the unofficial migration to Colorado a "terrific success' in your edi tonal "Hindsight appearing in the Oct. 27 Daily Nebraskan. This was indeed gratifying because the ultimate decision to have no of ficial migration this year came as a result of tireless investigation and lengthy discussions with fac ulty, administration, students, and even with your editor. Since it is ihe sole ambition of the Student Council to carry out the needs and desires of the students to the best advantage for all, the migration proved a constant source of worry and concern. I believe you were and are aware of the many complicat ing factors and circumstances that concerned migration this year, but still you stated with "hindsight" that the Council reached the wrong decision. You stated that "a sanctioned migra tion would have brought along a lot of others who could not mmake the trip by car." Would there have been 200 such peo ple to meet the minimum train passenger requirements in view of the fact that an enterprising student could not even get enough interested people to half fill one bus for the trip?

Fear is the main weapon of Senator McCarthy's war of nerves. Of course, conscientious Americans are vitally concerned with ridding their govern- porary bleachers to facilitate some 450 extra Ne braskans. Seats at the far end of the goal post sold for S3. 50 and were jammed with the specta tors. Adding the additional bleachers was a friend ly gesture toward the Cornhuskers who were demanding the extra seats.

In the case of the Colorado migration, the over 1.000 students who made the excursion by private cars would still have been unofficial even if we had had an official migra tion. This, I believe, points out a few of the technicalities of an officially sanctioned migration. There was nothing in the Stu dent Council action prohibiting any future migrations as might be implied when you pointed to the "advisability of keeping the gration can even be considered i tradition."

The Nebraskan is of the firm belief that Eisenhower's policy of not condemning McCarthy and his tactics does not carry with it automatic condoning of the famous Senator. Aside from the partisan feeling of either the Democrat or Republican parties, it can be. understood why a The Daily Nebraskan suggests that if Colorado must again put in temporary bleacher seats for their large crowds, they do so at a slightly lower price and an insurance of safety to prevent any future bad relations between the University and the Rocky Mountain school where we were in deed happy to be week-end guests.

But it definitely defeats our argument if stu dents who are not here to study are allowed to stay out of military service. That is the pur pose of the deferment tests. Actually, they are just general intelligence tests designed to find which of the students have the mental capacity to help their country with an education. These tests are not the only chance a student has for deferment, a grade average high enough to im press the draft board is also considered. However, it must never be understood that the test or a high average automatically insure that a man will not have to go straight to the armed with their local boards. This deferment test may well be a matter of life or death. The Nebraskan has published several editori als explaining the need for educauon in critical times such as we are now expenenjing.

R.R. It is useless to lie to a pro fessional cigarette mootcher. With sense sharpened by long experience, the professional can smell a cigarette within the ra dius of a blo:k provided, of. course, that the wind is right. Possibly this explains the protruding nose. Dealing with a cigarette mootcher is difficult, since the only sure way to avoid one is to give up smoking, or at least stop carrying cigarettes which is out of the question. One way to deal with one is to otart loading cigarettes. Since this procedure costs money, it is not a very good method. The best metnod is to break me Margin Notes Rules And Restrictions . . .
