DECEMBER 16. 1941 Five CentsDiscussesChemicalsShortageThe much-publicized wholesale re¬placement of metals by plastics wasdebunked by Frank Westhemier, as¬sistant professor of chemistry andteacher of a course of plastics, in aninterview yesterday.There is just a general shortage ofall chemicals, he said. “Before thewar the chemical industry was per¬fectly balanced, but now with the warthere are shortages in most of theessential chemicals,” he continued.War uses and Lend-lease materialsare depleting the chemicals used inthe production of plastics for civilianuse.Although the country is producinga tremendous amount of chemicalsnecessary in the manufacture of plas¬tics, most of them are going into theproduction of v'ar materials insteadof civilian uses. Professor Westhei-mer explained.As an example he pointed to phe¬nolic plastics, an example of whichIs “Bakelite.” This is a compound ofphenol and formaldehyde, neither ofwhich is available without restrictionto industries manufacturing civilianproducts.Paint Industry Hard HitEspecially hard hit is the paint in¬dustry, Professor Westheimer dis¬closed. Formerly making many oftheir enamels and lacquers from tungoil, the industry was forced to usemore and more alcyd resins becauseof the difficulty of obtaining the tungoil from China. Now the phthalicanhydride, used to make alcyd resins,is being converted into dibutel phtha-late which has many military uses,according to him.Turning then to the urea plastics,he said that “if there isn’t troublethere, there will be soon.” In themanufacture of these compounds am¬monia is an essential component.Ammonia has also many wartimeuses. Therefore, urea plastics face asuccessor, Himmel, is assign- decreasing civilian use.Hisment editor of the Maroon. He ispresident of the Dramatic Association,a member of Owl and Serpent, andchairman of the Student DefenseCouncil. His work has been publishedin “You” Magazine and various inter¬collegiate magazines.The Maroon will continue with athree-man board, composed of Him- Synthetic RubberTrying not to be wholly pesimistic.Professor Westheimer declared thatsome chemical industries are expand¬ing, notably synthetic rubber. TheOffice of Production Management isI financing four new plants which willturn out 10,000 tons a year each. Theonly drawback here, he asserted, isthat the country uses about 800,000mel, Robert Reynolds, and James | topg of rubber annually and 40,000Burtle. Chloe Roth and Elizabeth j jons is “just a drop in the bucket.”Jane Waters will divide Philbrick’s |work of copy reading but will not bemembers of the board.F iner LeavesUnadranglesTom D. C.

Douglas Plans3 Million ForCity BudgetSpeaking before the Union LeagueClub of Chicago at a recent luncheon,Alderman Paul H. Douglas, professorof economics in the University, pro¬posed a plan for the 1942 city budgetwhich would save approximately threemillion dollars.Making relatively the same recom¬mendations as he did for last year’s i should join the Deke, Alpha Delt orNelsFuquaHasPledgedAid ToMilita ryCourseAs 260 Chicago men put asidethoughts of Wednesday night datesand prepared to take up wooden gunsin the Fieldhouse basic trainingcourse, word was received that NelsFuqua, Coffee Shop soldier of fortune,had decided to throw in his lot withthe “Fighting 009th”.Fuqua, long the leader of the mili¬tant C-Shop tea-drinkers, was unde¬cided yesterday as to whether hebudget, the chief suggestion was thatpresenting plans to save about $350,-000 on garbage disposal expense; onefeature of this plan is that areas ofwards for garbage disposal should befunctional, not political, and shouldbe separate from the regular wards, toincrease efficiency.In addition, Douglas presented rec¬ommendations for a central purchas¬ing department, the use of rovingbridge tenders as economic aids, andthe consolidation of the collector’sand city clerk’s office. Beta platoons. However as eveningcame to the Shop and club girls sadlytook their bridge cards back to thedorms, Fuqua changed his mind, pre¬pared to organize a Coffee Shop pla¬toon.And so as a recruiting office wasset up behind the juke box, Fuquabecame the two-hundred-and-fifty-first man to join the course, the firstto drill with straws, carry milk shakesin his thermos, and take close orderdrill notes on the backs of lettersfrom Orson Welles. CitherClothesForNeedyThe Settlement Board members willcanvass the campus tomorrow for oldclothes for the families of the settle¬ment. Headed by Jay Fox, they willgo to all the fraternity houses duringthe noon hour for contributions, whilegirls will circulate through Burtonand Judson later in the afternoon.Boxes for collection have been placedin the dormitories and at Interna¬tional House. If these avenues of col¬lection are not convenient, clothesmay be brought to the Chapel Officein Rockefeller Chapel.The Board’s head stressed thepoint that only usable articles arewanted. Garments in almost irrepar¬able condition are of no use.Last year the drive brought in sev¬eral tons of clothing, and this yearthe board hopes to do even better.Now that cold weather has definitelysettled on Chicago for the winter, thefamilies of the settlement districtlook to student social workers forhelp. With the quarter closing, andstudents preparing to leave for home,there should be a gratifying collec¬tion in the dorms and fraternityhouses.Terraqua will sponsor itsreal undertaking during theholidays when a group of stu¬dents will go on a ski trip toWarsaw, Wisconsin. The tripwill leave December 26 ' andwill return to Chicago on NewYear’s Day.Reservations will be madeat an American Youth Hostelwhere room and board will beprovided for $9. Reservationsmay be made in the Terraquaoffice in Lexington Hall.

Kruegerat long last By PHILIP RIEFFThe Socialist Party, led by NormanThomas and Maynard C. Krueger, as¬sistant professor of economics, haslost the struggle to “keep Americaout of the War.”But, declares Krueger, “it is here—now that the struggle to keep Amer¬ica out of war has been lost—thatthe most important battle for democ¬racy will be joined.”Writing through the medium of theeditorial page in “The Call,” the of¬ficial weekly publication of the So¬cialist Party, Krueger states that“not only our own internal destinybut the kind of peace we get whenwar is over will be determined by thedegree of democracy we are able tomaintain and achieve while the waris on.”* Sacrifice Domestic Essentials“The United States might well suc¬ceed in smashing the military powerof Japan at the cost of every demo¬cratic essential in this country.“The struggle to maintain these es¬sentials will be made more difficult bythe intensified hysteria that accom-(Continued on page three)Page Two THE DAILY MAROON. TUESDAY. DECEMBER 16. 1941Propaganda Is GoodIf Sincere^ GenuineOur attitude toward propaganda must be one of intelligence;it must, therefore, be one of acceptance. Not acceptance in thesense that it is a necessary evil but that it is a necessary good.A war defense is as strong as the people behind it. And it ispropaganda that unites the people of a nation. Psychologically,propaganda is considered as a means of providing a stimulusto a group of people that will obtain a uniform reaction. Whenthe lives of individuals, the life of a nation, the life of idealsare being threatened, it matters very little why people thinkthey must be perpetuated, it is important only that they do.It is true that propaganda has been abused in many ways bysensationalists and radicals. It is of this that we are most aware.The real propaganda, the true propaganda, has never appeared tous as such. All propaganda is not necessarily untrue. Much of it isstark reality. Its propaganda characteristic lies in the fact that ithas been emphasized a little more than some other information.It must be remembered too that propaganda is for themasses. The well-schooled, college-trained mind may realizethe tremendous importance of maintaining our economicrights and interests in countries at war. The ignorant laborerfeels no spark of incentive or patriotism at such information;he does not even understand it. He will never understand that,as long as he gets his eighteen dollar check every Saturday.But he will rise to the defense of his country when he learnsthat others, like himself, are suffering because of the enemy.He will not respond to a statement that the enemy hasplaced a boycott on all trade, but he will respond to onesentence if it states that even one young man has been sentto death in a blazing plane sent down by enemy fire. And it isthis response, the response of the masses, that propaganda iswritten and spoken to obtain. A war cannot be won by thecollege graduates of a country, by the business executives, thefinanceers, it is won, always, by the hard effort of the averageman who is strongly convinced that what he is doing is theright thing.In time of peace, there may, perhaps, be some question as towhether or not propaganda is fair and right. Is it proper to con¬vince people of things by stirring their emotions ? It may be betterthat they learn to make their own decisions unemotionally. Butwhen war is at hand, it is too late to think of these possibilities.There is no time to wait. A nation and a people must feel togetherand be united in their aims and purposes almost overnight. Andpropaganda is the vehicle that will insure this miracle.Every man, woman, and child in the country must beprepared for defense before the enemy drops a bomb right inthe heart of their deliberation and ends it for all time! Everyman must be prepared to serve his country before there is■—suddenly no country left to serve. The only way to get anidentical reaction from hundreds of millions of people at thesame moment is by use of the psychological principles in¬volved in propaganda. ^With such a genuine, sincere purpose, how can propa¬ganda, on the whole, be an evil thing? E. J. W. .What Happens If You VisitArt Show Three TimesBY BILL LETVVINDaniel Catton Rich and his associates travelled around the country fora year. As a result of their findings in these journeys, they invited twohundred-seventy-six American Artists to display their work at the 52ndAnnual American show' at the Chicago Art Institute. One by one, and side byside, 222 paintings are hung in eight rooms and a hall. The sculpture is con¬centrated in one central gallery.Two hundred and twenty-two! You have no idea how big that numberis until you see it in paintings. You get lost in the long row of galleries.You wonder whether you’ve been in this room yet. You stand at thedoor, scan the pictures. If something catches your eye, you go closer toit. If there is a large group before some particular canvas, you go overtoo.If you really want to see the exhibit, you should take about three trips.The first time you will look around and see what the paintings are like. You’llsee the portrait of a sculptor, in which top lighting makes his chin disappearinto the darkness below his head. Unfortunately, his pipe is just in line witha marble torso in the picture, so that you have to get two feet from thecanvas to make sure the white strokes aren’t a billow of pipe smoke.You’ll notice the Benton, a nicely formed composition, highly devoidof feeling. You’ll run into the painting of a nude model where the artistresorted to the shifty trick of outlining the figure in red. Some of thetitles will impress you: “Fugue and Fungi,’’ “Mexican Funeral,’’ “Hinky-Dinky, Par Le Vous’’.The second time down, you’ll look at the scultpure. You’ll find it muchmore homogeneous than the painting. You’ll notice that most of the sculptorsare back to stone; the wood fad of a few years ago is apparently pretty wellgone. The ease of the “Boxer Bandaging His Hands’’ will please you. Thepose of the high-relief Naiad on the West Wall of the sculpture room w'illamaze you. You’ll wonder who would buy it, and where they could put it.In front of the Vermillion wood “Trapeze Girl’’ you’ll feel all the visitorsbewilderment about the piece’s meaning.On your third visit, according to this itinerary, you look a,t theprize winners. For this phases there exists a time-tested technique. Firstyou look at the blue ribbons. Then you say “Oh, gosh. I don’t think thatthis is so good. Why, that little locomotive over in the corner is so muchbetter. And the viaduct building. Gee, whiz! What a prize jury!’’ For thisparticular show, you are justified in this attitude toward Maldarelli’sprize sculpture.But when it comes to Ivan Albright’s prize painting, there isn’t mucharguing. Whatever else it lacks, Albright’s canvas has the one thing you’llfind the show as a whole to be missing, and that is originality. The canvasis almost covered by the door of an obituary. On the door hangs a funeralwreath. In the lower left corner a hand is introduced holding a flower up tothe wreath. The title, “That Which I Should Have Done, I Did Not Do,” meansso much to the success cf the painting that Albright should have won a prizefor writing, too. -Traveling BazaarSex Runs Rampant;Sachs Loves It ANNE HAIGHT.

"A workman of German descent who ‘wished Wilsonmas in Hell’ was convicted for having threatened to kill the president since‘Wilson could not be in Hell unless he were dead.’ We are better off now thanwe were in the last war because we have these examples to guide us. We mustvot resort to suppression in imitation of the Naziis.“IIV ought to devote time now to discussing the peace which will followthis war.

Of several who were interviewed, no one expressed alarm, for his security or safety, and allstated that they thought the outbreak inevitable. General reactions ranged from resigned boredom to enthusiasticdesire to do something to help win.One Vienesse refugee, who crossed after war war broke out in England said, “Frankly, I’m just bored. I’vebeen through it all before. Most people, I think, were expecting it.’’Another Austrian refugee expressed herself differently. “I wish I were out on the West Coast where I coulddo something,’’ she said. “Some of us have gone through it before in England, and seen them attack. I should thinkthe government might be able to use us in some way.” Then she added, “This is so different than England, wherebombs fell right away. I really think I feel too safe here in Chicago.”•Vsked if she expected any sort of restrictions on aliens, she stated, “Of course in England we had to reportall our movements, even when we only went five miles or so. But as for internment, I haven’t given it a second’sthought.""Everyone expected it,” a German refugee commented, “but we were surprised by the suddenness of theJapanese attack. The hostile actions on the 4)art of the Germans left no room for doubt, but I hardly expected adeclaration of war so soon. Of course the declaration clarifies the issue and makes clear how things stand. Per¬sonally,” he continued, “I feel completely identified with the Americans, and we have to see the thing through.”Another refugee, after reiterating the inevitably of conflict, said, “I was sure that Japan was supported byHitler; I don’t think they would have done it without support. Their tactics were very Hitlerian, too.”One refugee expressed the opinion that there are more fifth columnists in this country “than either the FBIor any of us” know anything about.All those interviewed had their year .American citiz enship papers.‘^U.S. NeedsTax ScaleRevision”To meet the needs of the UnitedStates at war, involving the heaviestti.scal demands in the history of thenation.

Dentinger, admir¬ably suited to the Marquette floorqualities, accounted for flve basketsand one free throw. His support fromthe rest of the all-sophomore Hilltop¬pers quintet, including John Millunzi,proved adequate as compared with thenoticeably inaccurate Maroon shoot¬ing.With the Chandler-coached teamahead, 21-3, Ed Nelson hit for twoand Jack Fons and big Bob Oakleyalso putted two through the hoop toclose in at 21-10. But three Mar¬quette reserves. Bill Chandler Jr., BobPierce, and Tom McCarthy, combinedto stretch the Milwaukee school’smargin to 14 points; 30-14.Fogle Breaks IceFive minutes passed before eitherteam scored in the second half, butDan Fogle, of the Maroons, set aprecedent when he counted for twotallies on the Chicago side of theledger. But the Marquette sopho¬mores had too. much of a lead for eventhe determined and able Chicago John MillunziTo ExpandAthleticsChicago, Ill., Dec. 16—Schools andcolleges of the United States will ex¬tend and intensify their athletic pro¬grams wherever possible, in line withwishes of the government, during thecourse of the nation’s armed hostil¬ities.That is the belief of Major John L.Griffith, Big Ten Conference athleticcommissioner and Secretary of theNational Collegiate Athletic Associa¬tion. He cites a resolution of theN.C.A.A., adopted at the outset of thenational emergency in September,1939, calling for a program of ath¬letic emphasis on the part of theschools and colleges. That resolutionhad been framed after consultationwith leaders of the government’s mili¬tary and naval departments. He alsocites joint action of Big Ten Confer¬ence university presidents and athleticdirectors in January 1941, pledgingsimilar program stimulus on behalfof physical preparedness.Light-Weight FootballFurther evidences of school andcollege plans for athletic emphasiswere discussions at the annual wintermeetings of the Western Conferencelast week when specific proposals forprogram enlargements were submit¬ted. One plan which received seriousconsideration was the introduction of150-pound football team schedulesamong Conference teams.The National Collegiate AthleticAssociation at its annual conventionin Detroit Dec. 29-30 will give furtherconsideration to programs in discus¬sion of the convention’* theme, “Com¬petitive Athletics: Their ContributionIn a Crisis’’.Athletics ImportantThe role of athletics as an integralfactor in national defense has beensummarized in a series of statementsrecently collected from national lead¬ers. Among the statements is onefrom General George C. Marshall,Chief of Staff, United States Army,who said “Physical training and ath¬letics are of great importance to thewelfare of any nation. The War De¬partment places great emphasis onthe physical development of officersand soldiers of the army, and physicaltraining programs have long been es¬tablished as an important factor inarmy training schedules. The athlet¬ically trained young men of this sophomores to overcome, and the Hill-toppers soon had the board reading37-16.Bob Oakley, the rugged Maroonguard, led the guest team’s scoringwith seven points. All the Maroonfirst-year men performed ably, butthe Norgren quintet was entirely de¬void of any semblance of accuracyon the Marquette floor. Time aftertime, Heinen faked his guard, Den¬tinger, into the adjoining lobby, butHeinen—typically, missed his shots.Hitchcock TakesPing Pong TitleThe Hitchcock Hall table tennisteam defeated the Alpha Delta Phi“A” squad Friday to take the Intra¬mural Table Tennis Tournament.The dorm team, featuring severalof the outstanding ping-pong playerson campus, defeated a strong PhiSigma Delta team in the semi-finalsto get a crack at the Alpha Delts.Laurence Markus, Bob Meyer, TedZurawic and Jim Alexander consti¬tute the championship four.

The team recently com¬pleted its second season on campuswith only one defeat. One of the sur¬prises of the evening came when thecoach announced, that a game hadalready been scheduled for next fallwith Oberlin College of Oberlin, Ohio.Athletic Director T. Nelson Met¬calf, who was invited as guest of theevening, pointed out in his after din¬ner speech that, if enough enthusiasmis shown for soccer next fall, it willbe elevated to the status of a majorsport.Longer PracticesCaptain Joe Tvrzicky announcedrather energetically, however, thatwhether the sport attains a majorranking or not, more prolonged andstrenuous practice sessions will beheld to bring the team up to nationalcollegiate ranking.Rumors among several athletes arethat well known eastern college teamssuch as Princeton and Yale will beinvited to play the Maroons here nextautumn.Oberlin To Pay ForSoldier-StudentsOberlin College will pay for its stu¬dents in service the half-rate tuitionfee for extension courses in collegesubjects recently offered all membersof the armed forces of the UnitedStates by the Home Study Depart¬ment of the University.

These are qualities basic¬ally essential to the soldier. Athleticactivities on playgrounds and in ourhigh schools and colleges constitutean important contribution to the na¬tional defense.’’Health NeglectedSecretary of the Navy Frank Knoxsaid “From the experiences the navyhas had in examining men for service. it is clear that our educational insti¬tutions have tended to neglect thephysical education of American youthfor their intellectual development. Thetwo are really interdependent, and itmust be emphasized that the time tobuild up the health of these youngpeople is in school. Only in that waywill they be completely fitted to servetheir country, only in that way will webring about the national stamina andthe national teamwork which is thefoundation of effective national defense.”For Someone you Love...VERI-THIN GLORIA—15 pink or yel¬low gold filled cete, Guildite beck.. .$33.75 • 1 he Christmas gift that’s perfect forsomeone close to your heart is a fineGruen Watch — voted the most beau¬tiful of all the watches in the worMby America’s most respected fashiondesigners.•REGISTERED TRADE MARKVERI-THIN PORTIA—17 jewelt, pink or yel¬low gold filled cete, Guildife b«;k.. .$37.50 VERI-THIN HA5TER—17-iewel Precition.

Asidefrom the fact that I disagree withyou most heartily—and I’m sure manystudents agree with me on this—Ifail to see how the sports editor ofthe University’s student publicationcould permit such articles as thosewritten by yourself and Bob Lawsonto be published!I am writing this letter merelyas a student who sincerely desiresto see Chicago win, but not by em¬ploying unsportsmanlike conduct.Sincerely,“Stubby” HirschfieldBurton CourtDear “Stubby,”Your comment is not the first alongthese lines. Athletic Director T. Nel¬son Metcalf, among others, spent anhour with me the other day going overthe two articles to which you refer.But Bob and I still stick to our guns.Perhaps Bob’s article had impli¬cations which were not justified. 'Thearticle stated (1) You can’t avoidfouling; (2) Your fouls can eitherbe ineffective slight body touches orof a similar nature or they can behard body checks which can reallystun your opponent and make himrealize that you’re in the game allthe way; (3) If you can not avoidfouling and you can only do it oneof two ways, do it the hard way.My column did not condone foulingas such. It merely stated that thenumber of fouls recorded in the boxscore showed that the Maroons werefighting all the way and were playinga hard brand of basketball.Evidently this trend carried onover the week-end. Although theteam was only charged with tenpersonals, all reports agree that the a—••waaa OIIQting up a spirited fight to win.The number of fouls, of coursi^ isnot a definite indication of the farHutlof ball played by a team. An experienced team would have put up justas much fight as the Maroons did inthe Loyola game but would not havt-been charged up with such a hugetotal of personals.Again Joe Stampf serves as anexcellent example. Through exptr-ience he learned how to give theappearance that the other fellowwas responsible for the “dirtywork.”In due time this squad, also, winlearn how to fight all the way withoutan excessive fine. In the meantime,we must remember that the pointslost to the opposition will by no meansdetract from the experience gained.CLAPESATTLE: Th« Doefort Mayo $3.75Subfroatury of Amorican Humor 3.00CHASB; Windiwapt 2.75Bibla For Today adiftd byJOHN STIRLING 5.00Now Yorkar Album 2.50PROUST: Ramambranca of ThingiPast (naw adifion).... 5.00AUDUBON: Birds of Amarica 4 95And Many Othars At ThaU. of C.
