Early indicationsare that the fight will transcend allparty lines.

THURSDAY. DECEMBER 4. 1941— Rothschild Says—Speck’s Review OfAdler UncriticalBy PAUL ROTHSCHILDMr. Speck’s review of Mr. Adler’s “A Dialectic ofMorals” is most engaging because of the reviewer’slack of prejudice deriving from an understanding ofthe materials presented in Mr. Adler’s book. I am happyto announce at the outset, that I find myself less ob¬jective than Mr. Speck in regard to Mr. Adler’s work,but no less so in regard to Mr. Speck’s. Since we can¬not figure out just where Mr. Speck stands, let us fol¬low him chronologically and see if we can find out eitherwhere he’s been or where he’s going.Step by step then, we approach the review. We haveno particular fault to find with Mr. Speck’s first par¬agraph describing the method of the book as taking‘‘the form of a discussion (not in dialogue form) be¬tween a teacher and a student.” Since Mr. Adler hasunscrupulously hidden the usual definition of this method(“dialectic”) in the title, we are willing to accept thisnew, if somewhat wordy description.UpsettingThe second paragraph we find upsetting. Mr. Specknot only finds that the principle of moral choice (“thatmen should always prefer the greater good”) furnishesa basis in the course of the book for an order of goodsand an understanding of the nature of happiness, buthe also discovers this “moral truth” to be “indefiniteand by all practical standards inconsequential.” We arenot sure whether Mr. Speck’s lack of enthusiasm de¬rives from the “fact of preference”, that is he justdoesn’t care, or from the principle of moral choice, thatis nobody else should care either.^ ConfusingThe third paragraph confuses us. Then Speck nowtells us that “The order of goods is found to dependupon human nature and upon human capacities, a dis-cusion of which Mr. Adler reserves for his soon to bepublished ‘Dialectic of Substance, Essence and Man’.”And this, mind you, right after Mr. Speck has told usthat an order of goods is based on the “fact of pref¬erence.”To clear this up, we race on to the next paragraphto get ihe answer and find that Mr. Speck has quit dis¬cussing Mr. Adler, starts discussing himself.“Mr. Adler has difficulty in communicating hisideas,” says Mr. Speck and we are about to questionthe sender of the ideas, when Mr. Speck pops up with“He often shocks into disbelief.”Receiving Set of IdeasFor the first time, we begin to wonder if Mr. Speck’sreceiving set for ideas is all it might be. Several ofMr. Adler’s class-room remarks about propositions be¬ing “absolutely true” are quoted and Mr. Speck com¬ments that these statements “were not calculated toinduce the patient work necessary for understanding.”At this point, we can not decide whether this is a re¬view of Mr. Speck’s prejudices and emotional prob¬lems or of Mr. Adler’s book, but we proceed.Mr. Speck encourages us, however, by telling usthat Mr. Adler has improved “on this score”, producingin this book “more light and less heat.” We resist thetemptation of asking who has the light and who theheat and proceed with Mr. Speck’s challenge to Mr. Ad¬ler to make him understand anything.“Mr. Adler might have much greater respect andconfidence had he stated at the outset that most so-called moral rules are primarily conventional and onlya few principles are true for all men.” Since we neverhad much trouble distinguishing rules and principles,we continue to have confidence and respect for Mr.Adler and ourselves as well. Mr. Speck then strikes ata fundamental truth, that “Mr. Adler also does not ap¬preciate the difficulty most [sic | people have in under¬standing his arguments.” With Mr. Speck as livingtruth of this proposition, we presume that Mr. Adlerwill begin anew to appreciate it.Refrains From CannabilismMr. Speck then turns the full fury of his broad-sideon Mr. Adler, for, as Mr. Speck tells us, “SometimesMr. Adler convinces the mind but leaves the heartunstirred. An argument based upon a hypothetical mandesiring A as opposed to B is not calculated to movethe heart.” All of this coming from Mr. Speck, whoadmittedly refrains from cannabilism only as a matterof comity, leads us to the suggestion that Mr. Adlergives up his chair in favor of Rita Hayworth, who isbetter calculated to both stir and move Mr. Speck’sheart.At the start of the next paragraph, Mr. Speckstates, “Only after sympathetic and persistent effortyields understanding of the argument, should an at-* tempt be made to evaluate.” We think this is a prettygood conclusion and are not a little shocked to findthat it isn’t the conclusion.Search For The GoodMr. Speck concludes by suspecting Mr. Adler of be¬coming dogmatic and intolerant because, having foundthe truth, he may quit searching for it. Also, Mr. Speckaccuses Mr. Adler of “undermining a sociological ap¬proach to human problems which has yielded good re¬sults.”We suppose he means like the present war whichcauses us to start searching for the good all over again,and waiting with Mr. Speck for the “Dialectic ofSubstance, Essence, and Man.”Today on QuadranglesThursday, December 4, 1941Bible Study Luncheon, 12:00.

Oh, God I A Few Questions OnFraternity RushingAs a result of the Maroon fra¬ternity poll and the dissatisfac¬tion of many fraternity menwith the administration of therushing period recently ended,the question has again arisen asto how long the rushing periodshould be.The Dean’s office presents sta¬tistics which seem to prove thatshort rushing periods cause thefreshmen to get lower grades;the fraternities argue that longrushing periods cause the fra¬ternity men to receive lowermarks. The fraternities bring upthe financial factors involved;the dean’s office counters withthe argument that short rushingis bad for the freshmen psycho¬logically.Then, of course, there is al¬ways a question as to whetherthe freshmen have a chance tobecome acquainted with the fra¬ternities in a short rushing pe¬riod. The Dean’s office says theydo not and points to statisticswhich show that the number ofmen that depledge increasessharply when the rushing periodis short.We would like to bring upsome questions for both sides toanswer. Can anyone prove thatfraternity rushing and member¬ship in a fraternity effects anindividual’s grades? We strong¬ly suspect that the effect on anindividual’s grades which thedean’s office attributes to affilia¬tion with a fraternity is in alarge majority of cases causedby participation in other extra¬curricular activities.The fraternity men are dis¬gruntled about the many infrac¬tions of the rushing rules thatoccurred this year. Many ofthem say that a rushing period of less than six weeks together^ith certain changes in the ru.shiugrules would result in less “dirty”rushing, Why ? Are the fraternity men»o sensitive that these changes willsuddenly make the majority of thornresponsible and law-abiding?One more question...

For onceit looks as though there will not beanother publicity-search by the metro¬politan newsmen.One of Chicago’s most outspokenopponents in the Conference, WendellWilson, former Athletic Director ofthe University of Illinois, will not sitin on the meetings. It was only lastyear that he proposed that the Ma¬roons be dropped from the Conference.He even went so far as to say thatif the Big Ten did not approve hismotion, the University of Illinoiswould not schedule the Chicago teamsin any sports in the future.Motion DefeatedClear thinking on the part of theConference members caused the mo¬tion to be defeated and Wilson, ofcourse, did not carry out his threat todrop competition with Chicago.* No doubt, many of the Big Ten offi¬cials hold no love for our University.Chicago’s actions in the past twoyears have brought the Western Con¬ference much adverse publicity. Fromtheir viewpoint they are entirelyright. But we are right in our attitudealso.In some instances the philosophiesof the Western Conference and theUniversity of Chicago clash directly.By BILL TODDCome Saturday night. Coach NelsonNorgren’s varsity cagers will be“pitted against the Techawks of theIllinois Institute of Technology in thegame that will ring up the curtain onanother basketball season, a seasonthat is, as yet, clouded in the mistsof uncertainty. The Techawks, withone victory under their belts, mayprove a tough nut for the Maroonsto crack, especially since Norgren’sboys have not been too impressive inpractice sessions thus far against thefreshman squad.The Maroon attack will, to all ap¬pearances, be built around Jack Fons,a three year veteran, and Ed Nelsonwho looks like the most deadly shoton the team. Chuck Wagenberg hasunfortunately been hexed scholastical¬ly and his steady dependable playwill probably be sorely missed.From among the array of Kra-kowka, Heinen, Crosbie, and Siska,Norgren will have to choose the re¬maining three to take the floor Satur¬day night.Ironically, the tech coach RemyMeyer is one of the university’s ath¬letic products, having participatedbrilliantly in football, basketball, andbaseball while a student here. To topthingrs off royally, the athletic direc¬tor, John Schommer, is another Uni¬versity of Chicago athlete.On Monday Armour Tech, now theIllinois Institute of Technology, de¬feated the American College of Phys¬ical Education 41 to 16.KEYSTONE MEETSKeystone invites all women toattend its first Combination Party,a combination of business meetingand coketail party.

Good every Friday.DICK SAYS‘*My new band has got what Chicago wants. . . come over Friday and Vll grove it!” Big Ten football, for instance, is runas a business through and throughMany were the subtle press releasesobtained by me from the Big Ten Ser-vice Bureau this fall which weredesigned for no purpose but to in-crease the money income from theg^ames.I believe that it is only a matterof time until the University asks f(rrwithdrawal from the league. We donot belong in the Big Ten. We are toosmall, our scholastic program is notdesigned to attract the athletic type,we do not want to subsidize, openly orsecretly, on any large scale, and moatof the students in the University"don't give a good damn" about thewhole business in the first place.Can They Do It?Alpha Phi Omega, the scouting fra-ternity, and the Varsity “C” Club hopeto relight the flame of school spirit.If they can do it, swell! But the situa-tion looks pretty hopeless. There sjust no denying that we’re differentfrom Illinois, Minnesota, Ohio State.Wisconsin, Michigan, Indiana. Purdue,Iowa and Northwestern.But one thing does look certain, andthat is that there will be no more at¬tempts by other schools to have usthrown out of the Conference. Whenthe time comes, it will be up to us toswing our own ax.Crime—(Continued from page one)Thus, from a collection of appar¬ently meaningless bones and remains,to the laymen at least, Krogman hasbeen able to give a quite accurateand enormously important picture ofthe murdered man to the police. Ac¬cording to his report, the man hadbrown hair, was about 50 years old,of white, middle-European stock,measured about 5’7” to 6’8” andweighed around 130 pounds. In addi¬tion to this material, shreds of cloth¬ing indicated that the man was aworker of moderate means.Look al thesethrilling gifts hvLucien Lelong* Lucien Lelong’s amazing new"Balalaika” Solid Cologne is anew creation.
