rJeedecJ: A1ore Money
Chancellor Clifford Hardin went to bat Thurs
day on another vital problem facing the Uni
versity. The Chancellor spoke to the Legis
lature's Revenue Committee in support of the
bill which would continue the institutional build
ing levy.
The bill, as it stands now, would extend the
building levy for another ten years, but would
reduce the amount from 1.1 mills to three
quarters of a mill. Governor Victor Anderson
appeared before the committee to ask that the
amount be lowered to half a mill and to set
up a priority system for the allocation of
funds to state institutions.
The University is now finishing n extended
building program, but will need the extended
levy to finish construction and keep up repairs
Although the present situation is in many ways
adequate, University officials are looking for
an 85 per cent increase in enrollment in the
next eight years.
Like the needed increase in the budget, this
mill levy is necessary for the continuing func
tion of the Uninversity in a manner that will
be a credit to the state and to the University's
educational standards.
To educate its citizens in a proper manner
the state will have to pay now and keep on
paying in the future. The legislator must realize
this, for the good of the University and for
the ultimate good of the state of Nebraska
I Vicious Cycle . . .
Kansas University like the Uriversity is
lamenting over the loss of top flight teach
ers to other school. The Feb. 26 Daily Kansan
featured an article describing the teaching
crisis at Lawrence which stated that "KU can
not keep top-rated faculty."
Interestingly enough the Kansas University
administrators find themselves in vmuch the
same position as NU with competing schools
luring top faculty personnel away from home
grounds with offers of substantial salary in
creases. The Kansan stated that "better pay
ing universities are coming to schools such as
KU only to select students who have just gotten
their Ph.D. degree with the idea of enlarging
their own staffs."
George Smith, KU dean of the University, is
quoted as saying that competing Universities
"use these men to fill junior vacancies on their
staffs at the assistant professor level. "How
ever, we are reaching a period when larger
schools are doubling and tripling their staffs
and are now picking senior staff members from
institutions not paying the kind of salaries
these schools can afford to pay," Dean Smith
continued. (
Chancellor Hardin has repeatedly outlined
muqh the same sort of problem here at the
University.
According to Smith, Kansas University
ranks about in the middle position among
American universities as far as , salary scale
goes. Earlier this year Chancellor Hardin
stated that Nebraska ranks sixth in the Big
Seven in comparative salary scales. This means
that Nebraska's plight is even more severe than
our neighbors to the south.
The already complex and severe problem
of teachers' salaries is only in its infancy. With
the greatest gain in college student enrollment
yet to come, demands for new faculty mem
bers are bound to increase at an even faster
pace. This means that large schools in the
Big Ten and on the East and West Coasts will
start even more pressurized campaigns to in
crease their respective faculties. ,
The University will have to continue raising
teaching salaries to meet competition with
these larger schools. And in order to raise
faculty pay the University will have to present
even larger budget requests to the Legislature
Thus a vicious cycle which is just beginning
will continue to plague University officials for
years to come.
The Rites Of Spring
The campus is shifting seasons again.
It is time for Spring to begin, and for winter
to melt away into a morass of muddy side
walk and foggy mornings. It is time for that
greatest of all campus seasons the Warmer
Months.
During the fall and winter the campus is
properly collegiate, with football games,
warmly -clad coeds and sorority formals. It
is a tweedy, Ivy-League time of the year, and
the local department stores go properly somber
with browns and charcoal shades to drape the
narrow shoulders ' of well-attired.
Winter is a smug, scholarly season, when
there isn't much to do except 'study, and it
is too cold to do anything extra-curricular
except for the hardy few who go in for skiing
and bobsledding. I
But spring, bless it, has a mind of its own.
It cares little for formalities and the cultured
things. It makes one stare out the window
toward an unseen Girl"s Dorm. It entices even
the most scholarly to go out and sit under a
tree and watdi the world go by.
It is these Warmer Months which cause
the great exodus of automobiles out to the shady
glens and pastoral villages of rural Nebraska,
; where students relax and meditate on the forma
tion of cumulous clouds. Strange rites are per
formed around squat barrels, and a festive air
envelopes the gathering.
Spring is the culmination of the school
year, preparing its disciples for summer jobs or
graduation, when one must leave the protection
of the ivy tomb and face the world.
Ah, spring. Except that in this state it always
Tains and the best weather is during fina!exam
week.

An Ohio State student met two Hungarian
students awaiting entrance to his school. He
asked one, "What can we do now to help those
still in Hungary?"
Through an interpreter the Hungarian an
swered: "Nothing. He says they want their
freedom, and it doesn't come in CARE pack
ages." '

I'm not ready for the four day
work week yet. And from the
way most students roam around
the campus at all hours of the
day and night searching for an
extra minute here and there, we'd
all be dumbfounded by . shortened
week.
I understand that with the in
stitution of a four-day work week,
Americans will finally be able to
boast of a true leisure class. I
don't know; the - busy little men
who can afford to be leisurely at
the present time never seem to
be.
And the slobs who have nothing
but time on their hands don't feel
that they can afford any more re
laxation. .. .bad for the digestion.
Reducing the work week from
six to five days was & major step
toward making life in the USA a
more enriching experience. But
immediately after the beginning
of that plan wives by the millions
started to work.
The dirty gossip has it that at
the present time 15,000,000 Ameri
can wives are holding down jobs.
Harlan Miller suggests thgl the
three car family will accompany
the four-day week. A sure sign of
prosperity or of hocked jewels or
something. I don't know a thing
about the economy (except for
what Elgin Groseclose has to of
fer) but I'm pretty sure that the
fewer and fewer hours one puts
into a job the more is expected
of him and the more perfect his
tools must be.
Warner-Swasey, in a very inter
esting brochure, stated that the
American workingman would be
cheating himself if he continued
to work only as hard as he does
now if a shorter work week were
put into effect.
They say that machines have
to be much moreerfect than they
are now if we are to get close to
a stable economy with a shorter
week. Anyone know what they're
talking' about?
I was chatting with a printer
from Texas the other night who
told me he has worked in some
shops which operate on a 32-hours-per-week
schedule. That's hard
news for a guy like me to take
who doesn't have the Guild to dic
tate just how long Daly will push
us on the treadmill.
The printer said that the more
modern the plant in which a man
is working the more efficient the
man must become.
But then man becomes a mere
tool.
I appreciate the benefits of mod
ern technology and. I know that
I would never survive without ra-
Ohio State U
Fights Racial
Discrimination
(Eds. Note:) In an attempt to
acquaint University students
with problems facing other cam
puses, the Daily Nebraskan
prints the following article. Some
problems, as budgeting, are
shared by many schools. Others,
such as widespread discrimina
tion, are particular to a smaller
number.
OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY
(IP) The Human Relations Imp
lementation Policy Committee is
sued its first progress report to
the Ohio State University Student
Senate recently and indicated a
general policy of non-discrimination
was being carried out on the
campus.
The Senate learned, however, not
all areas of policies were found
in agreement wiin tne comprenen
sive Senate discrimination docu
ment set forth as University poli
cy last spring.
The committee pledged a step
ped up policy of education and in
formation of the student body and
University policy of non-discrimination
to be pursued in the com
ing weeks. Committee spokesmen
emphasized education of non-complying,
areas would take time and
that progress was more than satis
factory to date.
Paula Jo Gailbraith, chairman
of, the Human Relations Commit
tee, issued the 15-minute , report to
the Senate. She told the Senate
an appeal would be made to stu-
ents and faculty to report i any
possible existence of discrimina
tion on the campus.
She said the committee will open
its doors to hear any cases re
ported. Phases of campus activity
still pressed for improvement by
the committee include:
(1) The attempt to influence the
public schools which the College
of Education uses in its training
programs to work towards a non
discriminatory 'attitude in assign
ing student teachers.
(2) To make known the non
discrimination policy of the Uni
versity to employers who have
rown dsicriminations patterns in
their hiring.
(3) Encouraging a non-discrim
ination attitude to off-campus home
owners taking in University stu
dents.
(4) Encouraging the University
not to accept athletic contests with
schools which practice discrimin
ation in housing minority members
of Ohio State tems.

diators, cushions and modern
plumbing. But every once in a
while I think about Pinochio and
that sweet looking old man who
worked far into the night in his
quaint little shop. I suppose the
facts are crooked; history has
been prostituted; after all, who
can believe that a puppet would
come to life?
Anyway, those were the days
when a man earned his bread by
the sweat of his brow and lived
the simple peaceful life. Now1 man
is zippetydodaing through the work
day just so he can get back home
and putter with his puppets or his
hi-fi bulldog. It's just like the farm
boy who makes good in the city
so he can return to the farm.
And what's all this prove? Prob
ably that man is in search of se
curity, of love, of the simple and
truly fine things in life.
He wants the security which can
come from a good job and he wants
the leisure time to pretend he's a
simple man. That's all right. But
it's too bad that man can't be
secure without this round about
method.
If only he believed in himself
enough to work for what he wanted
and worked for himself enough to
reach what he believed in. Enough.
I'm beginning to sound like
Schultz.
oc $ Diagnosis
The hopes of a Mideast settle
ment are fading as unfavorable
reports are received from Israeli
and Arab capitals. This will mean
the likelihoooVof an agreement be
tween the United States and Is
rael is greatly reduced.
And, if no peaceful agreement
between the U.S. and Israel is made
it will leave the crucial decision
up to the United Nations. This de
cision is whether or not to impose
sanctions.
What type of sanctions would be
imposed would be another question.
They could range anywhere from
Military sanctions to moral sanc
tions. Moral sanctions, the mildest
form of all, more or less would just
criticize Israel for refusing to evac
uate Egypt.
If Diplomatic santions were im
posed, diplomatic relations with Is
rael would be cut and all the am
bassadors of the United Nations in
Israel would be recalled. Economic
antJMilitary sanctions, if invoked,
would mean the severing of all
trade with Israel and the use of
armed force against Israel.
The United Nations will, in all
probability, now act on passing a
resolution invoking some form of
sanction against Israel, the extent
of the sanctions depends on the sup
port the resolution receives and
the strength of the determination of

Timeless
What is past but an accumulation .of presents,
, The substance upon which the future rests.
But what if the present in reality absents
The grasping of human mentality and quests?
Then would the present meaningless be,
and the past become void and abyssal?
With a future as remote as a God absentee?
And when we grow old, cannot we but be cynical?
Yet realize you not time is not an equation mathematical,
With signs, conventions, symbols, and inequality.
It is an endless continuum with a dimension eternal,
From which some derive fame and immortality,
While others transcend not the vast mediocrity,
Lost unsung and untolled in total obscurity.
Nelson Chuane
Man's Worst' Enemy
Time . . . man's worst enemy . , .
Yet who created time but he?
Who else chopped space up into hours
and put harness on its aimless course?
Who else, through fear, confined eternity;
and freedom, for security, sliced into days?
Who else but man, for the sake of order,
commanded ether into place
To march! To beat!
To insist on ticks of clocks and senseless regularity?
Who cut his freedom chained him
V to the racing pulse of time . . .
Of hurry and ceaseless ends and beginings but man
His worst enemy?
Patty Schultz
Culmination
Should love be the revealor of lovliness,
And not the reflection of some instinct base?
Should we project our spirits into space,
To mete humanity at its most fullness?
Man at his best must endeavor with nobleness
To reconcile his will with God's and to brace
Himself with righteousness for the arduous race.
Let not bestiality wean you from kindliness! ,
Therefore, brethren of the faith, hear His voice
Whispering down from eternity, and fail
Not to obey the call of His divine purpose.
Dawn will the day when man is left with one choice
Of coexistence and brotherhood. Hail
Then the morn when a new sun will have arose.

the all-important Big Five to inv
pose harsh sanctions.
- Attesting to the importance of
this action is President Eisenhow
er's statement that the Israel and
Mideast problem is the "gravest
he has faced."
"It's more serious, he thinks,
than Red China's threat to Que-moy-Matsu
and the siege of Dien
bienphu because the stakes are,
bigger, including, as he sees ft,
life or death for the United Na
tions. Why Israel should choose not to
reach an agreement with the Unit
ed States is not evident. Israel's
reason for occupying Egypt was
that they felt that their own sur
vival depended upon their position
to repeal the repeated Arab raids
from the Gaza Strip and access to
the Port of Elath. .
Israel now will not withdraw
without the continued guarantee
against Egyptian acts of belliger
ency. T
The free world is determined
to have Israel withdraw from the
area to establish the international
right of free passage through the
. Gulf of Aqaba. They will achieve
this by one of the following meth
ods: (1) Peaceful agreement withoui
sanctions, by Israel to withdraw
from Egypt and the Gaza Strip,
with the assurance . of U.N. or
other troops to prevent border
raids. .
(2) Withdrawal of Israeli troop
after sanctions are imposed by the
United Nations.
(3) If no action Is taken by the
United States or the United Na
tions, some other power, Russia,
might move into Egypt and force
Israeli troops from the region.
- The plan which United States,
France and Israel hav been re
ported to be discussing toward
the peaceful withdrawal of Israeli
troops includes the stationing of
United Nations Emergency Force
(UNEF) troops along the Gaza
Strip border and the Sharm El
Shiekh area which commands the
entrance to the Gulf of Aqaba.
. These troops would be there unt3
the dispute between Egypt and Is
rael calms down. This plan, if
adopted, would not require U.N.
action, but would give that group
the authority to interpret the pro
visions of the truce.
Israel, however, will stlH Insist
on two more provisions before it
will come to any agreement. It
wants to keep all economic ties
in the area and also to lease Amer
ican merchant ships to carry goods
through Aqaba into the port of
Elath. It also wants a U.N. Naval
force in the gulf, as proposed by
Canadian Foreign Minister Lester
B. Pearson.
All these factors will add to the
difficulty of reaching a decision
out of the United Nations. The
power of the United Nations in the
future will be greatly reduced,
however, if it does not come out
with a definite backing for its de-
cisions. ,
To make a resolution, and not be
prepared to back it up, with force
if necessary, will cause ail na
tions to lose faith in the U.N. And
while France and England had
obeyed the U.N. and withdrew their
troops from Egypt, so should Is
rael. Ag Skating Party

A roller skating party will be
sponsored tonight by the Ag Inter
denominational Club, at 7:30 p.m.

Florida State
Students Ask
Study Time
The Student Senate at Florida
State University recently passed a
resolution calling for the exemp
tion of graduating seniors with
"B" averages from taking final
exams and to allow students more
time to study before exam week.
A senate spokesman pointed out
that some departments exempt
graduating seniors and some do
not, and that a uniform policy
should be adopted by the, univer
sity. If the resolution is accepted it
would allow students who have
more than two final exams on the
same day to schedule one for an
other time.
It also suggested rearranging the
schedule so students would be
allowed a full hour for lunch, and
it asked the scheduling of either
one day or a week-end between the
time classes are dismissed and
time tests begin for study. No ac
tivities would be scheduled during j
this period.
