'it serves you right! . , .University of Chieogo, Friday, February 28, 1947 Copy 5c IN THIS IAVC To CampaignFor Increase OfG. I. SubsistenceIn coordination with the nation-wide AVC drive during the monthof March, the local campus chapter will sponsor an active campaignior the enactment of the Rogers Bill (HR 870) now before Congress.This bill would increase the monthly subsistence payments toalt student veterans in order to compensate for the increased cost ofliving since the QI bill was originally passed. Single vets would receive$100 instead of their present allowance of $65. The allowance of vet¬erans with dependents would be raised to $125 with an additional $10for each child.The campaign is under the direction of the Veterans* Problemscommittee. In cooperation with other campus organizations such asNSC, PCA, and AYD, the committee has recently completed rallyingpublic support for the Rogers Bill through petitions to Congress andit will now concentrate on an extended publicity program throughlocal city newspapers.In order to implement this program, Stan Durka, chairman ofthe committee, has named Bill Friend to supervise the collection ofdata regarding specific personal hardship cases of campus veterans.All veterans who feel they can substantiate their individual need foradditional financial support or who can demonstrate why the presentallowance is inadequate are asked to leave their names and addresseswith the AVC chapter secretary (Midway 0800, Ext. 1574). The urgencyfor active cooperation by all campus veterans in this regard has beenstressed by the committee.On the national level, the Intercollegiate Student Veterans Coor¬dinating Committee, embracing other national veterans’ groups aswell as AVC, will send a veteran delegation to Washington, March 7,to appear before the Veterans Affairs Committee of Congress toexplain the need of veterans for the additional subsistence allowance.An informational file pertaining to the cost-of-living at the U. of C.for the us^qf this delegation is being prepared by the Veterans Prob-!• ms Committee of the local chapter. The name of the representativefrom the campus AVC to this national delegation has not yet beenreleased. Tuifion MayIncrease $10Next QuarterRumors of a forthcoming raisein University tuition charges wereconfirmed today by an officialwho said that an increase of $10per quarter would probably besuggested to the Board of Trus¬tees at their next meeting.“The raise is absolutely neces¬sary to meet next year’s budget,”he said. At the present time, evenwith the proposed increase, tuitioncharges cover less than one-thirdof the budget.The same official, who refusedto be quoted by name, said thatit was foolish to assume that any¬thing but financial necessity couldprompt a raise in rates. He point¬ed out the fact that schools com¬parable to the University had longsince passed our present chargeancf had announced further in¬creases for the coming schoolyear.Two reasons were given for thesuggested raise.(1) Costs in every departmenthave increased.(2) Salaries must be increasedto keep University standards attheir present level.It is expected that the irt-creased charge will go into^effecrfor the spring quarter.Red Cross Drive Begins MondayEx-G.I. prisoners of war,a Red Cross truck parked inthe quadrangles circle and atag day have been plannedfor the campus launching oftlie national sixty million dollarRed Cross drive Monday, March3.

THE CHICAGO MAROONTheMusic StandBy ED KAUFMANIn New York a few weeksago, the Metropolitan OperaCompany shook the dustfrom the score to Mozart’sopera “The Abduction fromthe Seraglio,” and presented itslong overdue American revival.Apparently this has started a verywelcomed renaissance of anotherof Mozart’s great masterpieces, forChicago is having its own little“Seraglio” festival this week.Wednesday evening, the Stu¬dent Committee of the Renais¬sance society presented a pre¬view of the Opera Theatre’scurrent Chicago production.Since the “Abduction” has notbeen presented in this city fortwenty* years, it is particularlysignificant to the Universitycommunity that its membershave been the first to hear itin its revival.From the Metropolitan Opera’sbroadcast a few weeks back andfrom the excerpts heard Wednes¬day, I cannot conjecture a singlereason why so tardy a revival hasbeen accorded this magnificentmusic. It was of particular ad¬vantage to hear the “high spots”from the “Abduction” without thebenefits of theater regalia. Thiskind of presentation concretelydemonstrates that the music ofthis and other Mozart operas canendure, even apart from its dra¬matic form. Further, it indicatesthat even a somewhat weak lib¬retto and other such theatricalconsiderations are not the legsupon which a good opera stands—rather, it is the quality of themusic which dominates this finalconsideration. In this kind of atest, Mozart’s operas are probablythe only that can survive, possiblyexcepting a few significant operasof the Baroque period.The local revival of the “Ab-'duction” has been matched thisseason by an array of musicalactivity remarkable both inquantity and quality for Chi¬cago. It is most paradoxical thatin a city which has frustratednearly every significant artisticenterprise, the music patron willhave had an opportunity to hearevery eminent musician of ourtime by the season’s close.Through its Chamber Musicseries and the musical endeav-of the Renaissance Society,the University has played nosmall part in contributing tothis flux of musical activity.Between such events as the“Abduction” revival, the Univer¬sity chamber concerts, and the ap¬pearance of such artists as Szigeti,Casadesus, Mitropoulos and theBoston Symphony, the Universitymusic patron has a selection ofconcerts scarcely comparable else¬where in the country. All told,this has been an outstanding sea¬son of music in Chicago. afy 28, 1947Jules StricklandThe TravelingBazaarCampusites Are Talking About: The eager-beaver doormen atWash Prom who weren’t going to let Dean Strozier in without a ticketThe sincerity of his Georgia drawl finally convinced them he wasn’ta gate-crasher. . . . “Man of the Year,” Nick Melas, who, after beingpresented with his gold key amid much ceremony was mistaken for awaiter in .Ricardo’s by an irate customer who wanted to know howlong he’d have to wait for his chops. . . .

The testimony ofprofessors Cole and Redfield,along with recommendationsof others who knew him well,substantiated Murra’s claimto belief in American institu¬tions.The government provided two for the government on thegrounds that his “evidence was notspecific in as much as he couldnot remember the subject matterin detail” of his discussions withMurra.that he has failed to establish witnesses.

A third witness, Murra’sprovides ihat ^affilliation* former landlord, refused to testifyan In the government’s recom¬mendation it was chargedthat Mura was member of theCommunist Party, althoughthe evidence was not strongenough to warrant such acharge being included in theactual grounds on whichMurra’s citizenship was de¬nied. Under cross examinationby Henry Heineman, his at¬torn e y, Murra emphasizedthat he had “never belonged tothe Communist Party andthat he was never a memberof any organization in anyway affilliated with the Com¬munist Party.”In explaining the circumstancessurrounding his two arrests in thesummer of 1935, Murra made thefollowing statement.“This was the first year of mystay in this country. I came tothis country with great expecta¬tions. I was having a very good time, learning a lot. The wholething at that time,' and subse¬quently, that riled me and made itdifficult for me was this problemof discrimination against certaingroups in this country, particular¬ly the Negro people.“The first time I was arrestedwas in a restaurant on ^cottageGrove Ave; this restaurant wouldnot serve Negroes. A friend ofmine came to me and asked meif I would not go down with himand sit in the restaurant untilthey fed a Negro, so I went downand I asked for a cup of coffeeand he said he would not serveany Negroes, and I said we willsit here until you get us a cup ofcoffee, and the proprietor claimedI was conducting a race riot. Idid not, I just sat there askingfor a cup of coffee and then wewere arrested.”In commenting on this form ofactivity, the court stated “Youdon’t know how much that manhad to wo^ and slave to get thatlittle restaurant . . . . ”Murra further explained“Here is a man who has cometo this country of his ownALWAYS BETTER-BITTER AU WAYS choice to attend a particularUniversity, and is suddenlyshocked by this particularthing. In the old country 1could not be a teacher, I couldnot hold any of the Jobs Ihold here, and 1 could notwalk in certain parts of thetown. I was told that this wasso in the old country, but thatin America it was all differ¬ent, all that was taken careof; that they have a countrywhere things have been fig.ured out and human behaviorhas grown to the point wheresuch things do not take place,so at that time I was shocked.Further in the testimony Murrawas asked whether he was willingto bear arms against any enemyof the United States; he repliedin the affirmative. The questionw'as then posed as to whether hewas willing to bear arms againstthe Soviet Union a.nd once morehe replied “yes,”Under direct examination Pro¬fessor Fay-Cooper Cole, of theAnthropology department, had thefollowing to say with regard toMurra’s attitudes, *T have notseen anything in his attitude orin hfts actions that would lead meto suspect that he is anything butcompletely in accord with ourInstitutions.”Following Professor Cole onthe witness stand was Profes¬sor Robert Redfield, disc of theAnthropology department. Whenqueried as to Murra’s politicalviews, Professor Redfield re¬plied, “I would say Mr. Murra’spolitical orientation was like thelate President’s, a little left ofcenter. I would say that Mr.Murra is interested in the rapidrealization of the principles andpowers of democracy in this andother countries.”Despite a lack of evidence insupport of the government’s caseand the overwhelming expressionof confidence in Murra on thepart of those who knew him best,his citizenship was denied.

U. S. ?Decision Desired...Student Government has walked the lastmile left before reality. It is now up to the stu¬dent body to say whether or not it wants studentgo\^rnment at this school.I-O has produced the final draft of a pro¬posed constitution for this form of student par-tifcipation in a “means of communication” be¬tween the administration and the large andvaried group known collectively as the “studentbod^y.’’It has taken I-O a long time to bear itsfruit. Giving everyone the benefit of thedoubt, there must have been much con¬scientious and careful consideration of theproblems this group will face, and the dif¬ficulties it will meet trying to act as a rep¬resentative of the 8,000 or more students inattendance on the Quadrangles.The delegated representatives of variousorganizations, some with a sincere desire toform a great and working student government,others with only a desire to advance their pres¬tige by saying they “speak for the entire studentbody,” have come forth with a 12-point program^for student government action.Numbered among these points are actionon the campus housing problem, availability ofrooms, pre-fabs, dorm assignments, and rentincreases; action on the textbook problem; ac-tioo to establish better faculty-student relations;action against discrimination within the Uni¬versity and its surrounding community; actionwith regard to revitalization of the Student asso¬ciation; action with regard to tuition fees, withacademic standards; “average” requirements, et‘cetera; investigation of Student Health and stu¬dent financial aid; and an attempt at coordina¬tion of student publications.If a student is convinced that thesecourses of action are legitimate fields forstudent investigation, and that the “homerule” of a student government composed ofa group of chosen delegates truly representa¬tive of a majority of students within arbi¬trarily selected units of the University is*desirable,. then he should vote for ratifica¬tion of the constitution and for responsibledelegates next month.However, if a student remains uncon¬vinced that student government can dealmore effectively with these problems thancan other functioning organizations such asAVC and the publications, and if he is dubi¬ous about the sincerity of candidates’ ex¬pressions of a desire to serve as a “voice oftheir constituents,” then he should voteagainst ratification of the constitutionwhich will be put before him on March 13and 14.THE MAROON at this time has'no recom¬mendations to make with regard to the actionthe student body should take. However, eachstudent would, do well to take a few minutesof time and read the constitution in advance ofdeciding whether or not to vote for it, or toabstain from voting.The great question about studei^ govern¬ment seems to be: is it necessary and/or desir¬able on this campus, and will its delegates servethe interests of every student whom they repre¬sent, or will they serve a clique or perhaps eventhemselves? This is a question which the “aver¬age” student at the U. of C. must decide forhimself, if he is to insist that there is a “studentbody” here.LAWRENCE, KANSAS—(AGP)—“This nation is def¬initely headed for a depression”—John Ise, professor ofeconomics at the University of Kansas is certain aboutthat. But he won’t go any farther with his predictions.The coming depression may be a sort of a mixture,he estimates, with some trades, like construction and theautomobile going full tilt and others in a steep down¬grade. The farmers will undoubtedly be hit, he thinks,but may lose their prosperity over a period of yearsand not in one great drop.The severity of the depression will depend largelyon the actions of the government, he believes, and furth¬ermore, if we think a depression is coming, then it willcome all the faster. For instance, if a man puts off buyinga car or building a garage because he’s afraid ofdepression, he contributes largely to bringing one on,concludes the Kansas economist. By TOM HANLONObserver-at-Large of the U. of C.The American student community has a moral obli¬gation to join some sort of international student organiza¬tion. Of this I am so certain that I feel quite free tocriticize one specific organization some American stu;dents think we all ought to join. This is the old caseof a distinction between the principle and the form inwhich it is applied.The principle is clear. When men share a commonlife with common problems, even though geography sepa-.rates them from daily community, they are obliged inthis increasingly organized world to act in some formalorganization created to solve those common problems.The form in which the principle is to be applied dependson other, perhaps contradictory, principles and on theimmediate possibilities of our times.Last year’s Prague conference was a hopeful augur ofthe future, but it nonetheless left much to be desired asto its form. I do not quibble over the somewhat tooobvious one-sidedness of the press releases coming out ofPrague last year with their constant mention of crusadesagainst fascism and their total omission of criticism ofother totalitarianisms; I do, however, feel doubtful aboutthe present composition of the secretariat of the Inter¬national Union of Students created at that meeting.There is very good reason to hate red-baiters—theygenerally cover their own sins by proclaiming someoneelse’s—so the charge that the lUS is Communist domi¬nated is not sufficient reason for me to declare againstit. My present and, I hope, only temporary, opposition toimmediate entrance of U. S. students into this particularinternational student organization is based on a clause inthe constitution of the lUS. This clause binds membernations to specific tasks which may be determined by thecentre! secretariat and penalizes with expulsion “un¬cooperative” bodies. In a normal political union such aclause would at least be quite carefully phrased to pre¬serve local autonomy and might, as has often been thecase, be entirely omitted. In a union of students such aclause is unduly restrictive unless this union intends,not the educational action-in-common which it declares,but political action which American students quite re¬cently (at the Chicago Conference) have declared against.May I repeat, we are obliged because of our socialnature and the nature of the times, which are times oforganized activity the world over, to join some sort ofeffective international students organization soon—notin an indefinite future after the European student com¬munity, which needs us, has disintegrated for lack of ourassistance. I only urge that we join the present soleexisting such group under our own terms and that thoseterms include a dignified measure of local autonomy sothat our support cannot be used as a political weapon byany group in Europe or elsewhere.The Editor's Mailbox"To Clear ... the Confusion"To the editor:The Campus Council Against Conscription wishes toclear up some confusion regarding their activities. Re¬cently there was a campaign against conscription whichhad as its main tactic the burning of draft cards inpublic. The Campus Council has no connection with thisactivity and wishes that be known.It is not to repudiate this activity which causes us towrite but to differentiate the kind of fight involved. Tothose who feel they must make a personal repudiationof the draft regardless of what action Congress will take,the refusal to carry a draft card has meaning. However,it must be realized that most of the groups opposing con¬scription need a more general basis for action than aprimarily pacifist one. The C.I.O. and the A.F of L., thecountless educational and religious organizations whichoppose conscription have, through the years, exerted somuch pressure that peacetime conscription has so farfailed of adoption. This lias been because of the commu¬nity-wide basis of their activities.We hope that all those who oppose conscription (andthose who are not opposed) will come to hear GeneralHoldridge Friday night in Kent 106. The drive for con¬scription is gaining momentum and it is highly importantthat our campus get busy to prove that it believes thatarmaments and conscription are not the way to. peace.Herbert Garfinkel,Campus Council AgainstConscription:AVC, FOR. USP, YWCA.LOS ANGELES, CALIF. (ACP)—Two or three yearsfrom now there may be Americans alive than if therehad been no World War II. So says Dr. Vern O. Knudsen,professor of physics and dean of graduate study on theLos Angeles campus of the University of California.“In other words,” he explains, “the number of Am-.erican lives saved as a result of medical research duringthe war will soon exceed the number of boys killed in thewar.” Dr. Knudsen adds that, apart from winning thewar and producing atomic energy, more benefits arelikely to follow from the researches in ths life sciencesthan from those in the physical sciences. By JOHN DOOLEYTo those who have had any acquaintance with Amer¬ican student life since the war, it should be very appar¬ent that there is a great fund of enthusiasm and interestfor work and participation in all fields of internationalstudent activity. The students of America contribute torelief needs of the students and university faculties ofllurope and Asia. Am^ican students are extremely in¬terested both in traveling and in studying in the institu¬tions of other lands. They are curious to know of thecustoms, ways of thought, and the culture of otherpeoples.These interests and desires on the part of Americanstudents, channelled through an American National Stu¬dent Organization, can find their most effective fulfill¬ment through a corresponding international organizationof students. The benefits that might be derived fromsuch an international organization in assisting Americanstudents to the ends they desire in the international fieldseem obvious.An international student organization, thq Inter¬national Union of Students, already exists. It was bornlast summer in Prague, Czechoslovakia, with the assist-“^ance of a 25-person delegation from the United States.The lUS contains representatives from almost all thenations of Europe, from many of the nations of Asiaand Africa, from Australia, and from North and SouthAmerica. It'is* this combination of national studentgroups from all parts of the world, and particularlyfrom the East and the West, that give to the lUS avery significant value in helping to create that type ofinternational understanding and good will on whichworld peace ultimately depends.Criticism of the lUS because it contains representa¬tion from Russia and from the student organizations ofnations commonly included in the Eastern bloc seems,therefore, without point. The lUS contains representa¬tion from the Western nations as well. It is to be hopedthat students from all of these countries working to¬gether in the lUS for common objectives in the studentworld can give a much needed example of cooperationdespite differences in ideology and outlook.'^'To criticizethe lUS because it does contain, and may seem to someto be dominated, by influences coming from the Eastwould lead to the conclusion that either American stu¬dents should work through another international studentorganization not yet born or refuse to participate in theinternational student field through any single interna¬tional student organization.It would seem perfectly obvious that an inter¬national student organization as widely representativeas the lUS cannot be created unless the lUS itselfgoes out of existence. To attempt to create a parallelorganization, would further widen the intellectual,ideological and cultural abyss that separates us bycreating two organizations, one representing largelythe West, the other largely the East.The other alternative is not to participate in inter¬national student activities at all, or to channel the vari¬ous activities through a number of organizations alreadyexisting in the field. For example, all relief activitieswould be handled through the World Student Relief,and student exchange and travel through the two orthree American organizations that already exist. To actin this manner, would tend to frustrate and divert thedesires of Americans for participation in the internationalcommunity of students.The question, therefore, as far as,the lUS is con¬cerned, is not whether or not American students shouldparticipate at all, but the level upon which such par¬ticipation should take place. This conclusion wasadopted at the Chicago Student Conference, held hereon the University campus December 28-30. The nego¬tiations to determine on what level and in what mannerAmerican students should participate in the lUS remainto be undertaken. It is in that direction that our bestefforts should be directed.The Chicago Maroon“it serves you right! . “ACP AU-Americatk, 194S, 1946Published every Friday during the academic year except duringexamination periods by THE CHICAGO MAROON, an independentstudent organization of the University of Chicago.
