Melodious Grows On The University botany professor was ready to chew up the plants in his campus office in desperation. Instead of Sunday after noon quiet, the room had been penetrated for the past 40 minutes with one tune played over and over: "Oh Dear, What Can The Mat ter Be?" It came from the nearby Ralph Mueller carillon, long after the traditional Sunday half hour concert ended. Finally the professor dialed the switchboard op erator to demand why. He pleaded, "I can't stand it a minute longer." With no ready answer, the operator called on the mu sic department personnel, running down professor My ron Roberts at home. Roberts couldn't under stand it. "I know we didn't have that song about John ny being bo long at the fair and promising the basket of posies in our mechanical repertoire," explained Rob ert. He and his wife Jumped In their car and drove down to the campus. He tried his key. Nothing happened. Campus police then tried theirs. Nothing could budge the door. With police on the pot, Roberts then called out. "Is anybody In there," trying to Nebraskan Erich Kahler To Talk At Conference Friday Erich Kahler, the renowed philosopher and author prese nted by the Nazis, will ap pear at the University Friday and Saturday to take part in the Central Renaissance Con ference.

Nelson will speak on "The Scholar and the Renaissance Society of America" at 1:15 SOS Cry Botany Prof unravel the musical mys tery. It seems that student carilloneur Michael Veak, after completing the Sunday program, couldn't get out. His key didn't work. In desperation, he started playing the "Gh, Dear" mel ody as an SOS to the out side world. This apparently was the right pitch as far as the working botanist was con cerned. Veak spent two and a half hours in the 84 foot high tower before Roberts, the campus police and pair of maintenance workers got the door open with a crow bar.

A petition drive started yesterday to appeal to the Nebraska Legislature against a tuition raise. At an Informal meeting in the Daily Nebrtskan office, representatives from several campus groups decided to circu late a statement with the hope of getting up to 10,000 signatures. The statement asks the Legislature and the people of the state to reject any proposal which would limit enrollment by raising tuition. The subject came up last week when Budget Committee Chairman Richard Marvel suggested a tnition raise In lieu of a hike in taxes to finance the University. Following Marvel's announcement, Sen. Terry Carpenter called for a stu dent demonstration against the tuition raises. A statment issued after yester day's meeting said it was the group's feeling that a demonstration march would not have any good effects on the Legis lature. The petitions will be circulated POUIGfUS Any classification which lists a common cause for un derdeveloped counties is mis leading, according to Harvard economics professor Dr. Ken neth Galbraith. "Preoccupation with the threat of Communism" in under-developed nations is just as dangerous, or even more so, than the threat itself, he said. "Such policy keeps us from understanding the causes of insecurity and keeps us from being tolerant in working on these causes," he declared. He concentrated on poverty and its resulting problems. He advised that the United States and other aid agencies begin to realize that problems in poverty-ridden nations are not due to Communism, but primarily to poverty itself. He emphasized that one's economic well-being prompts his actions and sympathies as much as his country's politi cal organization. "To fail to see this is to fail to understand the world in which we live," he said. Outlining the psychological, biological and economic pres sures and consequences of poverty, Galbraith pointed out the contrasts with such coun tries. He noted that what is a boon to developed nations, Tarty Leadership Hurt Republicans' ...Says Hatfield By Wayne Kreuscher Junior Staff Writer Oregon Governor Mark Hatfield was made an honorary member of the University's Young Republicans Saturday at an informal coffee and news conference in the Union. Hatfield said that the Republican party had been hurt in 1965 because of its narrow basis of leadership. The party, he pointed out, needed a broad base of leadership that ex cluded no party and that denunciated the traditional prin ciples of the party. "I gave full support to Senator Goldwater," he said, "because I believed in the basic principle of the two party system and because we had more in common than we had differences." "I disagreed with Goldwater's stand on the test ban, the right to work law and civil rights," he added, "but no one can challenge Goldwater's self-integrity." He described himself as a classical liberal who favors making the individual as free as possible. He said he was also probably a liberal in the sense of siding with legislation on civil rights, and social legislation. But he added that it was unfair to label any man and, that he took position on particular issues and could not be labeled in generaL He said the Republican Party needed to help establish a voting rights bill which would be more effective than the one President Johnson now has. President Johnson's bill, he declared, maintains the poll tax, and "I do not know a state where this is used for other than discrimination." "Discrimination," he said, "hurts everyone and does violence to the cause of freedom." Hatfield said he felt the United States should get out of Viet Nam as quickly as possible. "It's foolish to commit America to a World War in an area that is not military defensible as Viet Nam," he said. "If we're going to stop Communism, let's do it in a strategic area that we can defend," he stressed. Hatfield explained that the United States had air superi ority in South Viet Nam, but that we can't win the war un less we send 300,000 American soldiers to this Indefensible area. Hatfield, Oregon's handsome 42-year-old three-time chief executive, spoke later Saturday evening to the Lan caster County Republicans. He was the keynote speaker at the 1964 Republican National Convention as is thought by many to be a leading contender for the Republican presidential nomination in 13C8. ISIBSSS such as the idea of change, seems to be impossible in de prived areas. "Poverty is a direct cause of conservatism," the econo mist told the audience, and that conservatism limits op portunities for improvement. Therefore the poverty level is maintained. Noting that saving on which future production de pends in underdeveloped nations is almost impossible, Galbraith suggested that United States aid go toward building public utilities and transportation facilities to serve the people. But he also predicted that this type of aid would not be provided un til some future date. Nevertheless, Galbraith de clared, we must begin to ap proach matters "in a deep, liberal, compassionate spirit" and understand attitudes of the nations which need help. He discussed a classification I based on the obstacles to prog ress that hinder underde veloped countries and divided these countries into three ma- j o r groupings: sub-Sahara, Latin American, and South- Asian. He noted there were excep tions. Galbraith said the sub-Sahara group's major obstacle through all living units and the Student Union under the sponsorship of Interfra ternity Council (IFC), Student Council associates, and residence hall govern ments. Tentative plans call for the appointing of a small student delegation to address the Legislature presenting the plan. Present at the meeting yesterday were John Lydick, president, JoAnn Stratemann, vice president, Mike Barton and Larry Frolik, from Student Council; Buzz Madson, president and Mike Gotts chalk, Interfraternity Council; Dave Kit tams, president, Residence Association for Men; Frank Partsch, editor, and Lee Mar shall, managing editor, the Daily Nebras kan; and John Lonnquist, president of the Innocents Society. The petitions will include spaces for names and home towns for all signers. Mike Barton was placed in charge of printing and distributing the petitions. He said he planned to have them avail able this afternoon. to progress was its absence of a cultural base and of enough educated people to run the governmental apparatus properly. He said the Latin American group was based on a feudal land system and the result was that those who con tributed the least to the econ omy were also the ones who demanded the most from it. The third system, the South Asian, has a much higher edu cational background but is hampered by its large popula tion. Galbraith, international ally known economist and for mer United States ambassa dor to India, was in Lincoln to present the 1965 University of Nebraska Montgomery Lec tureship on "Foreign Pol icy and Economic Develop ment." He lectured Friday on East Campus, and spoke Saturday at Love Library auditorium.
