The third letter, from a former University of Chicagostudent, Peter Krehel, is interesting as a document expres¬sive of what is taking place in Czech universities, but con¬tributes very little to our understanding of the actual situa¬tion—that is to say, was there a crisis sufficient to set offthe fuse that blew up into so much war talk?The American press has assumed a tremendous respon¬sibility in dealing with these issues and any action on theirpart without a realization of what is at stake can trumpup a critical situation without any such situation existing.Unfortunately, reliable newsmen such as CBS’s Howard K.Smith and Edwin Murrow do not have the audience thatthree-color Hearst banners have. As a result we are con¬fronted with a crisis whether one exists or not.A typical example is the treatment of the Italian elec¬tion which comes up next Sunday—an election that someobservers believe to be more important than our ownNovember Presidential balloting. As a MAR(X)N writershows in his roundup of pre-election reports culled fromseveral news-magazine and radio sources, there is littlecause for alarm in the election itself, inasmuch as it isdoubtful whether Togliatti can compile the necessary vote.If he does, the question remains as to what he will do if hedoes win. If he forms a coalition government, the headlinesshouting “Communist victory in Italy” will look mightyridiculous. If the Communists come up with a clear majorityin a free election, who can say that we are morally obligatedto prevent such-a decision from being put into force?If, on the other hand, Togliatti polls, let us say, 45 percent and pushes his party in completely, then we may aswell drag out the old Ike jackets and keep a close eye on thefish bowl with the numbered capsules in it. The questionis, will American newspapers wait until that decision ismade before they start shouting?Community must actMost of the students who voted in Tuesday’s primaryelections, registered and voted at neighborhood pollingplaces. For almost all of them, that was their only real con¬tact with their neighborhoods and their neighborhood or¬ganizations for the year. Yet these same students are in¬dividuals who profess interest in the future of liberalactivity in Chicago, who bemoan the presence of local racialtensions, or at the least concern themselves in classroomdiscussion with its causes, who take one view or another(but no action), regarding the activities of powerful, impor¬tant and effective neighborhood organizations, business¬men’s associations and the like.Social change does not begin at the University. It beginsin a block in Hyde Park, a street in Woodlawn, an avenuein Kenwood. An inspection of the student directory revealsthat at least 700 students live in Hyde Park, and a stillgreater number in Woodlawn. Perhaps a handful are awareof these as areas where social problems exist. The MAROONfepls that all of them represent a point of view and a poten¬tial of action.A few campus organizations—AVC, for example—havesome active, non-political contact with these communities.Most campus groups, by virtue of their interests and pro¬gram, cannot. There is a need for some organization ofstudents — and other young people — in each of theseneighborhood areas. How many students know that Wood¬lawn, for example, has the second highest tuberculosis ratein the city? That racial tensions are increasing along allthe borders of Chicago’s Negro ghetto? That there has beena wave of anti-Negro bombings throughout Chicago, andthat these bombings have meaning in terms of what ishappening and what may happen next door? That mostneighborhoods have housing schemes of one kind or an¬other underway, and that whether or not these projects arepublic or private, low-rent or high-rent, depends upon theinterest of community residents, including students?Many of these issues are critical and immediate. Thepossibility of effective action — before disaster occurs, insome instances—diminishes daily.University of Chicago students once before have takenaction to bring about social change, when such change wasnecessary in the University’s medical center. 'This week agroup of students met, drew up a preliminary program foran organization, tentatively called “Student CommunityAction,” and sent out a call for an organizational meeting.The MAROON supports and welcomes the new group’sefforts to engender peaceful, immediate action in the places^here students live and work. A MINUTEWITHTHE EDITORSBy ED ENGBERGWe are greeted Monday morn¬ing by a furtive looking characterwho had come to protest the rolethat pigeons were playing in theservices at Rockefeller Chapel.Having had our thoughtsabout nuclear reactions and thelike interrupted by a narrow'miss from a low flying bird thatsame morning as we were walk¬ing into Kent Lab, we were ripefor an editorial call to arms todo away with any and all suchthreats to the campus and thecommunity.“Christ, what a mess,” beganour visitor, “if Rockefeller were tosee this, he would turn over in hisgrave.” Painting verbal picturesfrom building to building, ourcivic-minded friend brought forthvisions of huge flights of enemypigeons equipped with war surplusNorden Bombsights completelyobscuring the modified gothic ofthe quadrangles.“I’ve seen people in the admin¬istration and have thus far gottenvery little except lessons in po¬litical action out of it,” our mancomplained.

As the students roseto leave Law North, a .. . charac¬ter (name unknown), evidentlythe teacher of the incoming class,rushed down the aisle and began,in the most uncouth and discour¬teous manner, to berate Dr. Wrightfor running overtime! In the midstof this brow-beating harangue, hepaused only long enough to lookup and bellow at the class—“This is not a Social Scienceclass—all you people get out!”Needless to say, Dr. Wright(who is a gentleman as well as adistinguished scholar)—and theclass—quite properly made no re¬ply, but quietly left the room.We therefore desire to protestthis wholly unwarranted and un¬professional conduct, and casti¬gate the perpetrator before stu¬dent opinion. He certainly owes anapology to Dr. Wright, if not tothe entire class.,Students of Pol. Sci. 360To the Editor:A committee headed by Chan¬cellor Hfrtchins recently madepublic a preliminary draft of aworld constitution. A detailedstructure of governing bodies andtheir functions was outlined. Inspite of the elaborate plan, thefollowing problems were not re¬solved :1. Are different economic sys¬tems—capitalism, socialism,, rem¬nants of feudalism—compatibleunder a single state unit?2. Can one consistently defendboth the existing division of the Friday, April 16, 1948The Editor ^ jworld’s territories and the right ofeach nation to determine its poll-tical destiny?3. Can a world government, orany government, subordinate thevested interests of the few to thedemocratic interests of the peopleon ^e basis of private propertyand glaring inequalities in wealthand opportunity?4. Can a world government re¬main a stable, progressive institu¬tion and still be formed on anaristocratic selection, removedfrom the people, as envisaged inthe Hutchins draft?The verdict on this plan i.s clear;it is Utopian. But even the Uto¬pias of Sir 'Thomas More, RobertOwen, Campanella, Fourier, st.Simon and LaSalle were based orihomogeneous social-economic in¬stitutional arrangements; for theywere not so naive as to believe theformulation of a Utopian govern¬ment could be accomplished by theexisting social order. Governments,like all social entities, evolve fromthe concrete material and culturalforces of their day. A lasting, justworld government will surely beformed when the peoples’ needsand aspirations are satisfied by thedevelopment of Socialism in eachcountry. 'Then, and only then, cana world government claim todemocratically resolve the ques¬tions posed above.Joseph ElbeifiVice-Presidenf, Communist ClwkTo Hie Editor:During the past year there havebeen many articles and editorialsin the MAROON concerning tui¬tion, rent-ceilings, room-rent re¬funds and various other issues ofthe “gimme” type.It seems most unfortunate thatthe space given to these issues bythe MAROON, and certainly thesupport given them by the student,body, so far outweighs the pub¬licity and support given to move¬ments which take as their centraltheme the idea “I will give.”The approach to the problem oftuition increases has been par¬ticularly illogical. The various pro-tests seem to have been based ontw'o ideas: (1) “I don’t want to paymore tuition, therefore I shouldn’thave to” and (2) “I believe that Jthe Government should give every¬body an education, therefore theUniversity of Chicago ought to.”No sound suggestions abouteconomies or better managementhave as yet come to light.I do not presume to pass judg¬ment on the tuition increase. Imerely wish to point out that it ishigh time for us to realize thatright and justice in such mattersare not inevitably pleasant, andthat if we are to fulfill our de¬sires somebody is going to have topay for it. So far, our only solu¬tion to the problem of paymenthas been to declare loudly, "Itwon’t be me.”Watson PorkerThe Chicago MaroonACP Alt-Americam, 194S, 1946, 1947ED ENGBERG JAMES E.

The conflict between the Eastand the West prevents this. The fact that the coun¬try is trying to support about three million morepeople than it possibly can, will, no matter whocomes out on top, do a great deal to prevent it.The Italian voter is not happy with the positionhe is in. He would like to choose a government ac¬ceptable to the ERP nations and the CatholicChurch of the West and friendly to the Soviets ofthe East. But* he finds that the tragic polarization ofsentiments has all but removed the possibility offinding that middle ground.iMues or« obtcurGdThe noise, the wild appeal to one symbol or an¬other, the general volatibility of the electioneeringin Italy has all but obscured from us what the is¬sues are to the Italian voter. Italy is desperately inneed of social-economic reform. Even the Red-eyedLuce publications will grant this. She needs andwill for some time continue to need, food. Thismeans she must have ERP aid. Because of her geo¬graphical position, she must remain friendly to boththe East and the West. Lastly, the government thatthe voter chooses must be reasonably acceptable tothe Pope.Left alone without intervention from either theRussians or the Americans, the Italians might finda government that would satisfy those requisites. Itwould be a coalition of the Left and the Right.Such a coalition would encounter difficulties infunctioning, but on the whole the average Italianwould get a much better deal than he has had inthe past.Solution it impossibleSuch a coalition is Impossible however. TheUnited States ha9 indicated that it will not sendERP to a government in which the Communistshave so much control. Thus a vote for the Leftmeans a vote against having food. A vote for the“Front” (or Left) is a vote against the Church—aposition that is hard for most Italians to take. Avote for the U.S.-Church backed De Ga.speri groupIs on the other hand a vote against swift carryingout of the economic reforms, for the Right hasbeen slow in implementing such reforms.300 porties ep«raf«This series of dillemas, plus the fact that Italyis emerging from long years of Fascism, has pro¬duced the complete, spectrum of political parties—over three hundred in all. The grouping is in twonarrowing areas. The communist-socialist ‘‘Demo¬cratic Front,” led by Palmiro Togliatti, one of thestirewdest politicians in Europe, on the Left, and the ‘‘Christian Democrats,” headed by Alcide DeGasperi on the Right. There is a third, but un¬united—except in the sense of their all being anti¬communist—group which includes the moderateSocialists, historic Republicans, Neo-Fascist andothers.Christian Democrats in middleThe ‘‘Christian Democrats” control, within itsranks, slightly more than one-third of the vote. Itsposition is about in the middle of the whole group¬ing which is outside of the “Front.” The moderateSocialists are between the Christian Democrats andthe “Front,” and the neo-fascist and monarchistsparties extend to the Right of them.The importance of these parties outside of the“Christian Democrats” and the “Democratic Front”is that of their bargaining position. It is more likelythat they would tend toward De Gasperi than to¬ward Togliatti.Damocratic frowt attracts peasantsThe Democtatic Front has in the past controlledabout one-third of the voters. Their strength ismostly in northern industrial Italy though recentlythey have built a sizable following among the peas¬ant class. After the last election in June, two yearsago, De Gasperi formed a government without themand they have remained without representationsince.If the “Front” obtains about 40 per cent of thevote it will be, as Togliatti points out, hard to forma government without them. If they poll much overforty per cent the “Front” will be the largest sin¬gle party and thereby, according to parliamentaryprecedent, should, through Togliatti, be asked toform a government. But it is only through customand not LAW that, if this were the case, Italy’sPresident Enrico de Nicola would be called to askTogliatti to form a government.It is very likely that if, after the election, the“Front” emerged as the largest single party, deNicola again would ignore the “Front” and DeGasperi would continue in power. If the “Front”did poll as much as forty per cent of the vote, andthey again received a slap in the face, it wouldmean civil war and another Greece, though farmore important as far as world peace goes.It Is unlikely that the “Front” will gain morestrength than it has had. With the United Statesgiving Treiste back to Italy and with other politicalmoves that we have made recently, it is much moreprobable that the “F’ront” will lose strength, thoughonly slightly. If the election proves this to be thecase, De Gasperi is almost sure to again give theCommunist-Socialist block the cold shoulder. Ifthis happens there is still a grave possibility of civilwar, in spite of the three hundred thousand govern¬ment troops which have been mobilized for thateventuality.De Gasperi’s cold shoulder might be the firstact of a very hot war. It Seems To Me...By MILTON R. MOSKOWITZThe small regard that is being paid to civil libertiestoday is a dangerous sign. But what is most shocking aboutthe situation is not the series of incidents illustrating thisstate of intolerance, bad enough as these are.It is deplorable that we have set up a concentrationcamp on Ellis Island, that a former vice-president of theUnited States is unable to secure a hotel room in an Indianatown because of American Legionintimidation, that the police com¬missioner of Detroit says publiclythat Henry Wallace, being “un-American,” “ought to be eithershot, thrown out of the country,or put in jail,” that for the firsttime in the history of America aCongressman has been refused apassport by the State Department(Congressman Leo Isaacson, fromthe Bronx, was refused permissionto go to Paris as an observer at ameeting of European groupsfriendly to thejOreek rebels), thatthe Pittsburgh Press decided toprint the names of everyone inthe city who had signed Wallace-Taylor petitions.Truman plays fantastic raleThese manifestations are ugly,but we repeat—they are not themost shocking aspects of the cur¬rent hysteria. The most fantasticand incredible part of this blackpicture is the role being played bythe President of the Unit^ States.Truman’s intemperate re¬marks about Wallace, notablyhis statement that the thirdparty candidate ought “to goto the country he loves so welland help them against his owncountry,” have contributed tothe wave of intolerance that re¬sulted in hoodlums attackingWallace’s aides in Evansville,Indiana, and attempting tokeep people away from the au¬ditorium where Wallace wasspeaking.In addition to using his officefor the lowest form of red-baiting,Truman refused to issue a de¬nunciation of the Evansville thugs,despite appeals made to him bynon-Wallaceites like Walter Reu-ther and Max Lerner. It’s thestate’s busihess, “thank goodness,”was the President’s answer tothese pleas.All three parties would be wiseto appropriate Tom Dewey’s 1944 slogan for the ’48 campaign^“It’s time for a change.”• * •Too little attention has beengiven to the testimony of A. Phil¬lip Randolph a few weeks ago be¬fore the House Armed ServicedCommittee.The head of the sleeping carporters’ union told Congressmenthat Negroes would not registerfor the draft or for UMT if themeasures passed contain no banagainst segregation in the armedforces.Randolph said that Negroes aretired of being treated as inferiorsand special animals by the Armyand Navy, while being asked atthe same time to lay down theirlives, if necessary, in a war fordemocracy. Two such wars havebeen fought in the past thirtyyears and the status of the Negrosoldier has remained the same asthe position of the Negro citizenin the South, where most of theArmy’s camps are located, inci¬dentally.The civil disobedience threat,termed “treason” by SenatorWayne Morse, is something thatPtandolph could probably carryout, since he wields wide influenceamong Negroes. Other Negro lead¬ers, who are weary of brokenpromises, will probably offer theirsupport also. Nor will this be sole¬ly a Negro movement. Randolphsuggested that those whites whowant a ban on segregation shouldrefrain from registering too.« « «A few days after Randolph gavehis testimony. General Eisenhowerwent before the same committeeto give his views on this subject.Eisenhower stood up for theArmy’s segregation of Negroes. Hesaid that the Army is a reflectionof the nation, and that until dis¬crimination could be eradicatedfrom the minds of the Americanpeople, it wouldn’t be practical toadopt a non-segregation policy.ASK US FOR ARROW''SUSSEX"• • • AND YOU’LL GET the very smartest wide¬spread collar shirt made.The neck band is low, the Arrow collar, neat andcomfortable.

SPORT SHIRTS • PAJAMAS Gives,Quo Vadis?ByAdams and NeuerJames Wechsler, in his excellentbook “Revolt on the Campus,”notes that 3,500 U. of C. studentsparticipated in the 1935 AprilPeace Strike.There is a curious similaritybetween the events of that dayand ours. Then, as now, repres¬sion of civil liberties on a largescale was in order.Professor Schumannattacked by HearstWe are inclined to think of the30s as a period of relative domesticfreedom, but February and Marchof 1935 saw a bitter editorial at¬tack by the Hearst press on Pro¬fessor Schumann. Based for themost part on completely untrue“quotations,” this attack cul¬minated in March in the demandfor his dismissal from the U. ofC. faculty.Further, the very day before thestrike was scheduled to be held,Charles Walgreen (of drugstorefame) withdrew his niece from theUniversity to protect her from theclutches of the radicals into whosehands she was apparently falling.Needless to say, the papers did notstint with publicity. Opportunitiesto attack free love and radicalismtogether are rare indeed.Witch-hurts followed Walgreen actionThe situation was a natural forwitch-hunts, and the notorious“Walgreen Investigations” by'theIllinois State Legislature in factensued.But the atmosphere of fearand suppression did not prevent3,500 students from leaving theirclasses to march in the Peace,demonstration. Thirteen yearslater, we find ourselves again inthis atmosphere of hate. We sin-eerely hope that students willreact as vigorou.sly to it today.* * *After Prof. Paul Douglas* speechIn the Burton lounge last Sunday,we heard the following remark:“I don’t know whether to vote forhim. I don’t agree with him on allissues.”This, we think, brings us di¬rectly to the problem. Should aperson be endorsed because ofhis stand on issues- or on his in¬telligence, integrity, and cap¬ability?Judge candidates on personalityWe think that in these unpre¬dictable times, a man should be.judged by the latter rather thanthe former. A commitment on thepart of a candidate in 1938 of op¬position to Germany and her al¬lies would have included theU.S.S.R. after she signed theRusso-German pact. Yet, a shorttime later, Russia was fighting onthe Allied side. Commitments onstandpoints which seem obvious atone time might necessitate quickreversal at a later date, especiallytoday when many issues are notclear cut and the rival factionsoften have equally good justifi¬cations for their views.Of 'course, we realize that acomplete divorce of a man’sviews from his personality can¬not be achieved. However, in acase where a positive comparisonof these qualities can be made,election solely on issues seemsdogmatic and consequently ri¬diculous.♦ ♦ *When the Marshall Plan wasfirst conceived, it was indicated byGeneral Marshall himself that theproposed relief would also be ex¬tended to Russia and her satel¬lites.Russia withdrawsAt the Paris plenary conference,Russia withdrew because Mr. Mo¬lotov regarded the Plan as a poli¬tical weapon on the part ofAmerica. This was vociferously de¬nied on our part and chargesmade that Russia’s refusal waspart of the Communist scheme todrive Europe into chaos.Recently our State Departmentannounced that, in the event of aCommunist victory in the April Wallace rally hitsfoes in angry moodBy CURT CRAWFORDAlmost a thousand UC students encamped with a regi¬ment of Gideon’s army at the Chicago Stadium and hearda frightened, hoarse, emotional Henry Wallace last Satur¬day evening.The atmosphere was not the genial back-slapper andhand clapping of a political convention, but a loudly enthu¬siastic crusade led by an angry Elijah. And Paul Robeson’simpassioned “Battle Hymn of theRepublic” to New Party wordstagged the movement and itsmood..intimidation brings heated replySocial respectability—and NewParty moderation—seemed to beebbing fast. A rising tide of intim¬idation had included inflammatorystatements by the President,threats by the Detroit police ma¬gistrate, police searches, riots, dis¬missals.So Wallace swung back heatedly,perhaps somewhat blindly. Histerminology and analysis hadveered in places from his old “lib¬eral” framework; villains andremedies were often espoused bythe militant left.“The war threat is being manu¬factured by the big-business-mili¬tary alliance which is running ourcountry. It is being manufacturedbecause it is profitable. In thename of ‘national security’ tradeunions can be curbed, social legis¬lation can be held up, and thedrive for super-profits throughvast new spending for arms cancontinue . . . There is no threatto American seci^rity. There isonly a threat to the super-profitsof American monopolies.”Rodio deodline squeezes out programA race to a radio deadline leftlittle time for the Wallace alter¬natives; economic rehabilitationthrou^ the UN, international dis¬ armament, world federation, camespilling out over each other at theend.There was more than anger,evangelism and terror behind thelambasting nature of this speech.It was rally-oratory, and students,found that a rally’s function is notintellectual persuasion. The doubt¬ing are courted, not by syllogism,but by the bandwagon psychologyof flexed muscles and plain hoopla.And the faithful came for mentaland emotional uplift which willtransform an intimidated, over¬worked scattering of individualsinto a buoyant, confident whole.Wallace's progrom is enunciatedWallace’s campaign had notalways lacked constructive pro¬gram.Revival and extension of UNRA,enforcement of the UN Palestinedecision, international control ofstrategic bases and resources; arevived New Deal with such essen-tials as more social security, a $1minimum wage, federal housingand education instead of poll tax,Taft-Hartley, lynch law, segrega¬tion, conscription: these were theforeign and domestic desiderata.Then the U. S. will have themoral leadership and world friend¬ship “to talk to the Russians aboutexpanding freedom everywhere,”to build a world police force, “ademocratic structure to the UN,and world law with teeth in it.”18 Italian elections, aid to thatcountry would be denied. Paradox?Food is weoponWe believe that the ERP is apolitical weapon and that the U.S.,tf it seriously considers itself to befacing Russian aggression in theform of Communism, has a rightto use it as such. It should be ob¬vious to everyone by this time thata “full stomach” is. and alwayswill be, the best defense againstany totalitarian system offering“economic freedom” in exchangefor liberty.To the charge that by refus¬ing to permit people to choosea totalitarian government, if they do so by democratic pro¬cedure, we are ourselves abrig-ing the rights of the individual,we respond that: first, such ac¬tion is based on the same prin¬ciple as the prohibition of sui¬cide; and secOTidly, we believethat these people, by renouncingcertain rights, are endangeringthose who still wish to reservethem.Presentotion is kypocriticolWe, therefore, do not questionthe motives of the Marshall Plan—providing, of course, that theprevious assumptions are valid—but we do 'decry the hypocriticalattire in which they are cloaked.l^oBf ’ll pass every testfor smartness in aVan HeusenShirt!Because every Van Heusen has:'1.

Sun., Mon., Tuea., Wed., SatEvenings at 8:00.Phone Hyde Pa{k 3080 Ruth Herschberger, author of ADAM'S RIBRumor has it that Adam’s Rib (Pellegrini &Cudahy, $3.50) is, at long last, the refutation ofLuiidberg and Farnham: Modern Woman, TheLost Sex. Such is not the case, though clearing outthe sexual taboos and misconceptions about womenis certainly part of the job of dispelling the “chil¬dren, church and kitchen” treadmill prescribed forwomen equally by Adolph Hitler, Lundberg andFarnham.A full social and economic picture of women’sstatus w'ould be necessary in order to fully discreditthe “lost sex” arguments, but we must be contentto leave that to some future book. Ruth Hersch¬berger has ably, with fact, passion and humor, donewhat she set out to do in Adam’s Rib—to show how,from the moment of birth, restrictions and falsenotions about woman and her sexual and reproduc¬tive functions are carefully nurtured in the mindsof both boys and girls. Obviously it is a miracle of female resiliency that even 20 per cent of women(what an appalling low figure!) enjoy a happy,actively satisfying marital relationship.The opening pages seem so full of witticism thatone fears it will become cloying. Don’t be deterred!The book is as sober and factual as it is witty—^andit needs greatly to be read. It is to-be hoped thatmen will have the humility and good will (and self-interest) to be chief among its readers and pro¬moters.The real shocker in this book is Herschberger’sindisputable proof that the very best of our male(and sometimes female) scientists are subcon¬sciously so prejudiced as to constantly offer grossmisrepresentations under the pretext of handingout cold scientific fact in current sex handbooks.The author’s evidence is carefully documented in 27pages of notes and references. Even such sacredcows as Freud, Van de Velde and Menninger take ajab from her pen.It occurs to us that by writing this book Hersch¬berger incurs a responsibility to produce also a newand better sex manual than is now available. If shedoes so, she would avoid and correct the chief weak¬ness of Adam’s Rib—i.e., the lumping of women intoone group. Scientific study has shown that sexualmores and taboos differ sharply on various eco¬nomic and social levels—a fact surprisingly ignoredby those who set out earnestly to teach or discussthe sex ways of our American people.Some of the typical chapter subjects are: Howto Tell a Woman from a Man, Is Rape a Myth?Witchcraft and the Moon (on menstruation). Edu¬cation for Frigidity, Women As Something Special.The final chapter of the book is tacked on withoutapparent rhyme or reason, but is an important dis¬course on pregnancy and the possibilities of pre¬venting the present high rate of miscarriage. Theauthor makes out a strong case for exhaustive in¬vestigation of the delayed fertilization theory.A Chicago bookshop made a freak best-seller ofModern Woman, the Lost Sex. Perhaps our city’sfair name can be partially redeemed by wide read¬ership of Adam’s Rib. The University Bookstore hasit.

Bitter ex¬perience under Fascism hastaught them that it is most im¬portant to consider the sub¬stance of democracy—^its con¬tribution to promoting the needsand interests of students—andnot merely its external form.Hence the lUS considered twoquestions as the most importantobjects of investigation and de¬voted a large parr of its report toanswering them. These were:1. Was the leadership of theCzech National Union of Studentsdevoted to anti-democratic prin¬ciples which the lUS could notendorse?2. In the event that it was. werethe action committees that re¬placed it democratically consti¬tuted and devoted to a pro-demo¬cratic program?The lUS decided, on the basisof the answers it obtained tothese questions after careful in¬vestigation, that no criticism ofthe Czechoslovakian develop¬ments was justified. By BOB ADAMSI. NUS BackgroundThe lUS based its position thatthe pre-February leadership of theCzech National Union of Studentswas anti-democratic on a numberof facts and observations whichare well summarized by JimSmith’s resignation letter.There is no question that thestudents in general respondedwith great bravery to the Nazi oc¬cupation, and many were activeparticipants in the resistancemovements. As a result, the stu¬dents became almost a favoredgroup in the nation immediatelyafter liberation.Jim Smith notes, however, that“during 1946 changes in this happysituation began to make them¬selves apparent. Political lines be¬gan to harden within both youthand student organizations. Theright won control of the studentorganization.“Various reasons are given forthis phenomenon, but it is myopinion that the Czech studentssimply are not as far to the left asthe masses of the people. . .Many students received their sec¬ondary education in Nazi-dom¬inated schools and developed ex¬tremely anti-communist attitudesas a result of that. ... It mustbe borne in mind that the vast majority of them are from middleclass families, while the Commu¬nist strength is among the work¬ers and not the middle class.“Under the leadership of the Na¬tional Socialists, the NUS with¬drew from the national youthmovement, on the grounds thatit was controlled by commu¬nists. ... It supported the right-wing forces in the government onall issues.“It has been charged by the leftthat many of the leaders of theright-wing students were collab¬orators during the war, and thatothers were practically pro-Pasefstin their opinions. Emil Ransdorf,the former President of the PragueUnion, was an officer of the Kura-torium, the Czech version of theHitlerjugend. . . . From my ownobservations and conversationswith several of these students, Ithink they are all definitely anti¬communist, and that some of themcertainly are not democratic intheir political beliefs. . . .“Since the cri.sis has occurred. documents have been found lead¬ing to the charges that the leader.,ship of the Prague Union of Stu.dents, a constituent member of theNUS, mishandled funds and vot¬ing procedures in order to main-tain themselves in power. There isundoubtedly some basis to thesecharges.”'These charges are elab¬orated upon in documents uncov¬ered by the lUS in its investiga¬tion. Among examples cited are1,400 votes in one faculty beinggiven 6,000 votes of representationin an NUS election, the names ofpre-war and even dead studentsbeing used, whose fees were paidby the National Socialist Party,Jim Smith feel, however, that“even in a completely honest elec-tion the same right-wing elementswould have retained the officialpositions.” Nevertheless, as thelUS report indicates, “one couldscarcely expect the secretariat tolook favorably upon the reinstate¬ment of officers who had persis¬tently pursued policies like these ”(Continued to Poge 15)...because it's slow-aged!It's HandsomeIt's Hand-StitchedThe fabric inspired byworld-famous English"Cricket-Cloth."

Calischhas already tied the state highschool mark for the pole vault,and made an unofficial jump inthe Oak Park relays which toppedthe national mark.Coach Derr is also looking forpoints from Glenn Hesseltine, whowill run in the low hurdles, the100-yard dash, and perhaps the220-yard run. Tony Alper will ac¬company Hesseltine in the 100,while Davenport and Thundstromwill provide friendly competitionin the low hurdles.Co-captain Gordon should pacethe field in the quarter mile, withJerry Sanders and Bob Peitlerhelping set the pace. In the milerun, the JV’s will be without theassistance of ex-star Perelman,who has quit due to press ofstudies. Hansen, Brodky, Ference,and Daminos will be set to runthe mile.The team Is as yet untested inoutdoor competition and has, as amatter of fact, had very limitedopportunities for outdoor practicedue to the unseasonably good Chi¬cago weather.

In part also, the lUS po¬sition was based upon an analysisof past actions of the Czech Stu¬dent Union.The basic progi'am of the Un¬ion had been drawn up in thesummer of 1945. Among the pointsincluded were:1. The expulsion of pro-Germanand collaborationist elements.2. The insuiiiince of regular sti¬pends for university students.3. The dismissal of every pro-Fascist professor.The lUS report states categor¬ically that this program had notbeen carried out by the pre-Feb¬ruary NUS leadership. This isborne out by Jim Smith’s obser¬vation that the NUS “did not re¬ sist the actions of the NationalSocalist Minister of Education,who reduced the number of stu¬dents receiving stipends” in directcontravention of the NUS’ statedprogram.In light of this program,^ theNUS conclusions on the purposesof the action committees are sig¬nificant:“Just as action committees wereset up in ministries, offices, work¬shops, and other organizations, »r^/action committees were establish¬ed in the University . . . the pro¬gram of the action committeeswas in all cases the realization ofthe 1945 program. . . . The stu¬dent action committees were do¬ing no more than applying thoseprinciples which had already beenadopted by the students them¬selves, but which had never beenput into practice.” -To assertions that the actioncommittees of students were form¬ed in an irregular and undemo¬cratic way, the NUS answers that“these and similar committeesiwere formed in all walks of life.’'ISBELL'SChkogo's MostCELEBRATEDRESTAURANTS1435 E. 51st Street940 Rush Street590 Dirersey Pkwy.1063 Bryn Mowr Are.
