What happens to your job-if we getatontic energy to drive our ntachines?SUPPOSE, in the next year or two,some of the wizards in the atom­splitting business discover how to putatomic power to work in industry.Would that be good or bad?If you're a coal miner or an oil fieldworker, for instance, it may sound likea pretty grim prospect. If all they needto run a train or an auto is a pinch ofuranium, they don't need coal or oil.And, obviously, they don't need you.So what do you do? To save yourjob, do you buck the development ofatomic power?Well, your common sense tells youthat would be silly. What's more, sodoes American history.History shows that when we first putthe steam engine to work, it threw somepeople out of a job-temporarily. Butit made jobs for many times thosepeople. When the gasoline engine camein, it raised cain with the blacksmiths.But there are more jobs today in onedepartment of one auto plant thanthere ever were blacksmith jobs in thewhole country.But that's only part of it. Naturally, a man can turn out a lot more goods ina day's work with the help of powerthan he can without it. So, he becomesmore valuable and his wages go up­as history shows they have.Not only that-but over a period ofyears the goods he makes are producedmore cheaply, so prices can go down­as history shows they have. And theresult is that all of us can have moregoods-more cars, more clothes, morefood-by working more efficiently forshorter hours.That's why it's just common sense towelcome any new source of power, anymore efficient way of doing things, anylaborsaving machinery or better collec­tive bargaining.That's always been the free, dynamicAmerican system of doing business. Thesystem still has its faults. We still havesharp ups and downs of prices and jobs.But even as our system stands today, ithas brought more benefits to morepeople than any other system yetdevised.THE BETTER WE PRODUCETHE BETTER WE LIVEApproved for the PUBLIC POLICY COMMITTEE o,f The Advertising Council by:EVANS CLARK, Executive PAUL G.

SwiftAt the dinner, Chancellor Hutchins paid tribute tothe retiring Chairman of the Board:G'I first met Harold Swift a little more than twenty years ago, and I have been closely associated with himever since. In this period I have never seen him doanything or heard him say anything except what hethought was in the interest of the University of Chi­cago. The University has come first in his life."His dedication to the University has been a modeland an inspiration to everybody connected with it. Andalong with that has gone a dedication to his friendsthat surpasses anything I ever saw."This is not a funeral oration or an obituary notice.We are happy to know that Mr. Swift will be with usfor many years to come. Therefore I will contentmyself with saying now that, grateful as I am for hisdevotion to the University, I am even more gratefulfor the infiinite personal kindness he has shown me oninnumerable occasions. He has been a great Chairmanof the Board; he is a great friend."To fifty thousand alumni Harold Swift has alwaysbeen a great friend. No letter commending or criticisingUniversity policy; no request for information or sug­gestion for improvement has gone unanswered-andalways in sympathetic, conscientious detail.While Martin A. Ryerson was serving as Board chair­man (1892-1922), Harold was building a backgroundfor later service on the Board-which began in 1914.(Continued on Page 10)NBC win join alumni at mid-winter reunionThe University of Chicago N.B.C.

HUTCHINS"the way to begin is to begin"WHEN the un.iversity of Chicago was organizedin 1891 as a subsidiary of the Standard OilCompany and the Baptist denomination, it wasfar more fortunate than the prophets of that day couldhave dreamed. The Company was struggling along inthe kerosene business, and it was widely believed that oillamps would sometime be replaced by gas jets and elec­tric bulbs. The denomination, like all Protestant churchesat that time, was not wholly free from factional strife;and it was by no means clear that the stronger factionwould turn out to be that which was friendly to inde­pendent investigation and free inquiry.We have long known that the University of Chicagowas under the special proteotion of providence; other­wise it could not have survived the kind of administra­tion it has had these many years. But even at its birththe auspices were favorable. The Standard Oil Companymoved from strength to strength. Mr. Ford's noisy littlevehicles {fplaced the primitive lighting fixtures of ourfathers as the principal destination of its product. TheBaptist denomination, with a self-denial as magnanimousas it was unusual, made no attempt to direct the programor determine the theology of the growing institution; andthe University, with great reS01!rCeS made available in ashort time, found the world all before it.Since the University of Chicago was created as a uni­versity, it met few of the complications encountered incoaxing a university out of the cocoon of a college. Sinceit was founded by a benefactor who was liberal in everysense of the word, it was able to assemble at once abody of distinguished scholars. .Since the benefactor andthe denomination were liberal, the University establisheda tradition of academic freedom, absolute and complete,Mr. Hutchins made these remarks last January whenthe trustees and faculty gathered at the South ShoreCountry Club for their annual dinner. that has persisted to this day. The University has beengifted with trustees who have understood its objects andalumni who were not hostile to its progress. The solidityof its position, the eminence of its faculty and governingboard, and the excellence of its work have protected it"as it passed through misunderstanding and misrepresenta­tion; and the misfortunes accompanying depression, war,and inflation have not prevented it from being stronger"and more glorious today than at any time in its history.We must ask ourselves, therefore, not what other uni­versities have been able to do, but what we ought to beable to do in view of the blessings that Heaven hasshowered upon us. The answer is that we ought to beable to do anything that ought to be done. This is, infact, the trouble with the University of Chicago. I haveoften thought how pleasant it would be to be connected'with a university where nothing could be done, and whererelaxation was inevitable because anything else was im­possible. At the University of Chicago we know that ifanybody has an idea, he ought to present it and that weought to discuss it, and that, if it is a good idea, weought to adopt it; for there is nothing in our environmentor constitution to prevent us from doing whatever is theright thing to do. Other universities have good men whohave good ideas, but they are able to avoid the laborand disorder that good ideas cause by pointing to nu­merous reasons why their earnest desire to act upon themis frustrated. The trouble with the University of Chicagois that there are too many good men with too many goodideas; and we have no way of avoiding the effort andstruggle of thinking about them and trying to put theminto effect.I must admit, however, that we owe the progress wehave made not so much to the superiority of our talentsas to the accidents of our origin and the tradition handeddown to us by our predecessors. This appears from themost cursory examination of the record. With some hesi­tation I will venture one sweeping statement about what"34 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINEthe record shows: it shows that the University of Chicagohas never done anything 'that had not long been approvedby thoughtful men. The peculiarity of the University ofChicago has not been in the originality of its ideas or inthe adventurousness of its spirit. It has lain in itswillingness to do what was generally agreed ought to bedone but what was generally thought could not beaccomplished.I will take the most extreme case. The most daringinnovation in the history of the University of Chicago,far more daring than the relocation 'of the bachelor's de­gree, or the creation of the Institutes, or the organizationof the College, or the abolition of football, was the estab­lishment of the Medical School in 1927, two years beforethe present administration began .. The University hadone medical school already. It had nothing approachingadequate funds for another. The School was to be dif­ferent from every other in that the members of thefaculty were to be on full time; they were to engage inresearch; and paying patients were to be the subjects ofthat research. The School ran head on into the prejudicesof the organized practitioners of medicine, whose head­quarters were in Chicago. The financial and politicalhazards to the University in starting this School surpassthe risks it has taken in anv other connection.Today we may take pride in the fact that the U ni­versity of Chicago Medical School, in all the respects in, which it was attacked at its foundation, is regarded asthe ideal toward which all other university schools ofmedicine must aspire. But we should not forget that theplan of the Medical School was based on a national studythat was made in 1910, seventeen years before the Schoolwas opened, and that those who were most deeply andIntelligently interested in the progress of medicine be­lieved at that date that a school like the one the Uni­versity of Chicago later established was the ideal towardwhich all medical schools. should aspire.The special advantages we have enjoyed have carriedwith them certain special obligations. We are no brighterthan other people, or not much brighter. But the uniquerole of the University of Chicago has been to do thethings that bright people generally agreed ought to bedone and that they agreed with equal unanimity couldnot be done. So it is that the things the University hasdone have been on the whole, the obvious things. Nouniversity really regards football as anything but a nui­sance. The plan of a six-year elementary school, a four­year high school, and a four-year college has been thoughtof for at least a quarter of a century as a better organ­ization than the one with which the country is nowafflicted. Everybody knows that the credit system is acurse to education. Everybody would agree that a pro­fessor should devote his life to scholarship and not beforced to meet his bills by hackwork. Almost everybodyagrees about all these things, but almost nobody but theUniversity of Chicago has been in a position to do any­thing about them. The fact that the University of Chi- cago has been willing to do something about them hasmade it possible for other institutions, less fortunatelysituated, to do something about some of them, too.What the University of Chicago has been trying to dois to show the country what a university should be; for,as I shall hope to demonstrate, we cannot claim that atrue university yet exists in the United States. The effortto show what a university should be has involved show­ing what a college should be and what liberal educationshould be; for the state of education below the universityis so bad that it is impossible to approximate universitywork without raising the level of education below it. TheAmerican university has been an imitation of the univer­sity of Imperial Germany, but it has lacked the one thingthat made the German university possible, and that wasthe humanistic gymnasium. The College has been ourattempt to supply the foundations for the University,without which the University would either remain float­ing in the air, or, like most American universities, wouldhave to confuse and retard its work by trying to make upfor the deficiencies of the high school and the collegewithin its own program.I believe that the organization and the curriculum ofthe College are sound. We suffer in the divisions andschools from the fact that large numbers of students cometo us at the conventional junior year or after graduationfrom conventional colleges of liberal arts who are by ourstandards unprepared for university work. We then tellone another that we cannot do real university work be­cause we have these students. But we should not admitstudents to' the divisions and professional schools whocannot show that they have in some way achieved sub­stantially the same education that we expect of the grad­uates of our own college. The method of determiningwhether they have the education we expect of the grad­uates of our college is relatively unimportant. The pointis that they should have it. Otherwise we present our­selves with an insoluble problem when we try to showwhat a university should be.A university should be a place where the faculty andstudents are engaged in independent work. Everywherein the western world, except in America, this is what auniversity is. Everywhere else the student comes to theuniversity at the age of eighteen, nineteen, or twenty andexpects to learn by himself, or at least he expects to dothe great bulk of his learning when there is no teacherin the room. In many countries the student attends notmore than four class meetings a week. In many coun­tries such classes are open to him only twenty-four weeksa year. The fact that by European standards Americanstudents are grossly overtaught does not prove that Euro­pean standards are correct. Perhaps the European stu'dent is undertaught. But it is significant that nobodyargues that the European standard is incorrect. On thecontrary, American professors sigh regretfully and saythat the American student must be spoon fed because hecan't do, or won't do, or isn't prepared to do independentTHE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINEwork.Since it is impossible to hold that young Americans areinherently less capable than young Europeans, it is arguedthat they are so badly educated that they are unable tolearn by themselves, or so uninterested that they will nottry. If they are uninterested, they should not be ad­mitted. That might interest them. If they are badlyeducated, they should be told to go and get the basiceducation they need. That might improve basic educa­tion. One thing is certain, and' that is that the U niver­sity of Chicago will not show the country what a univer­sity should be until it puts the responsibility for theeducation of the student in the divisions and schools uponthe student himself. In the words that one of our col­leagues dug up out of Comenius: "Let the main objectof this, our Didactic, be as .follows: to seek and to find amethod of instruction by which teachers may teach less,but learners may learn more."This will require a reduction in the amount of formalinstruction in the divisions and schools. Whether thisshould be done by adopting the proposal now before thefaculty to cut the quarter to eight weeks, or whether itshould be done by diminishing the number of class meet­ings but keeping a quarter of the present length, orwhether it should be, done by increasing the amount ofinformal instruction is perhaps immaterial. We shouldhave that minimum of formal instruction which is in­dispensable to start the student and keep him going inindependent work.This is, of course, only half the story. The professorsin the divisions and schools are supposed to do inde­pendent work, and, if they are to do it, they must havetime for it. I, have heard it said that if the amount offormal instruction is reduced the professor will have nomore time for research because the students will take upall his time with individual conferences. This seems tome to underestimate the skill of our professors at evadingthe students, a field in which their reputation standsalmost as �igh as that of the Central Administration. Ifthe reduction of the amount of formal instruction didnothing for the professors and a great deal for the stu­dents, I should still he for it. But I cannot believe thatour professors would find it impossible to organize theirwork so that long stretches of time formerly given to theclass-room would be available for their research.We shall not achieve a complete demonstration of whata university should be until we have abandoned the quar­ter or any other temporal measure of instruction. Thequestion is not how long a student has been studying;the question is what he knows and what he can do. Ourmethod of discovering the answer to this question is theexamination. When we are asked to certify that a stu­dent has, in our opinion, a' liberal education, we nowreply that he has passed a certain number of. generalexaminations, each of which covers the work of one yearin one field. When we are asked to witness to his qualifi­cations for the master's or the Ph.D., we may include in 5our testimony that he has passed a certain number ofexaminations, each of which covered the work of a singlequarter in a single field.A year is bad enough; a quarter is intolerable. Theexaminations for each degree should cover all the workwhich that degree is supposed to stand for. Otherwisewe substitute the simple addition of single quarterly oryearly credits for the mastery which is education. Wehave made great progress in getting away from simpleaddition in the last twenty years .. We have made so muchthat it would be easy for us to take the final step andescape altogether from the vestigial trammels of thecredit system.We ought to try to see to it that the mechanics ofeducation interfere as little as possible with the inde­pendent work of the students and -the faculty. The lec­ture system, for example, was a necessity at a time whenthere were no books. The lecture then considered largelyin reading a manuscript that was in the exclusive posses­sion of the teacher. Now that we have a million and ahalf volumes, more or.less available to the students in theLibrary, it seems an interference with education to havethe professors read their contents to them.Professors are in. the habit of presenting their ideas orfindings to students in the form of lectures before theyare ready to publish them in books. That is a good habit,but I would suggest that it becomes a bad habit if theprofessor continues to present in lectures what he hasalready published in a book. And even before the bookis published, if he has committed his thoughts to wri!ing,it would be better to have his pages mimeographed anddistributed. He could then spend class-room time moreprofitably, both to his students and himself, in discussingthe written document rather than in the display of hishistrionic and elocutionary talents.In the divisions and schools the formal lecture is justifi­able in the context of the kind of education we ought togive only as a preliminary statement of the progress or.conclusions of research. On this theory no man oughtever to give the same lecture another year. Another yearhe ought to have reached another stage.I believe in the formal lecture as a statement of theresults of current investigation. It gives the professorexactly the chance he needs to make an initial presenta­tion of his work. And for the students such lectures havevalue, because through them they can become acquaintedwith the thinking that is going on. I should like to seemany more such lectures, and I should like to have them'open to the whole University. But the lecture as it isconventionally conceived in this country has no place inthe kind of university we are trying to build.I think it would be impossible for a man to give thesort of lecture I am talking about more than once a week.Hence the question arises, what is to be done in class therest of the time? There is no virtue in merely not lectur­ing. Using th� method of discussing cases, I interferedjust as effectively with the education of my students at6 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINEthe Yale Law School as if I had been giving them thesame old lectures year after year. I told them what waswhat, but, since the catalogue said that all courses in theSchool were given by the method of discussing cases, Ifelt bound to end every paragraph with a question mark.This may be called lecturing in the interrogative mood:The object of a meeting of students with a teacher isto inquire into the truth. The function of the universityteacher is to lead the inquiry, to lead the students to in­quire. It is not to get the students to recite or to quizthem on whether they have read their lesson. Althoughthis may be appropriate to some stages of education, ithas nothing to do with- the kind of independent thoughtand inquiry to which a university should be devoted.Socrates remains the model university teacher. Hethought of himself as a midwife, helping to bring knowl­edge to birth in the minds of those with whom he talked.The activity of a university should be one continuousSocratic dialogue.If we think of a university as engaged in one continu­ous Socratic dialogue or one complex of continuousSocratic dialogues, we see, as I have often said before,that everybody must be able to communicate with every­body else, and everybody must be able to understandeverybody else. It is not necessary to agree; but it isnecessary to communicate and understand. It is -for­tunate that universal agreement about what is true orfalse is unnecessary, for we know that it would be impos­sible to achieve it. If we dispassionately examine thehistory of the race, we must conclude that agreementamong any considerable body of its members on what istrue or false is obtained only by faith. The Baptist de­nomination, when it founded this University, explicitlyrejected all suggestions that the University should bebound together by faith. The denomination thought theUniversity would make its best contribution to civilizationthrough free inquiry. We must recognize that free in­quiry is unlikely to lead to agreement among many menon many subjects.We should not conclude that it is undesirable to agreeor that we should not attempt to agree on as much as wecan. What is the possible scope of agreement within auniversity? Men agree to a certain extent when theyunderstand one another, even though they differ in theirjudgment of the matter they understand. Men agreewhen they engage in trying to solve the same problem,even if they do not come out with the same solution.This suggests the scope of possible agreement within auniversity. I think it. is possible to agree upon what ques­tions deserve to be discussed and upon some of theanswers that are worthy of consideration. I think it ispossible to agree, too, that the law that musf govern theconsideration and discussion of these issues is the law ofcontradiction. You cannot take two opposite positions on.the same subject at the same time, or take a position onone subject and then refuse to agree to the inevitableconsequences of it. You cannot, for example, say that democracy is the most just form of government and atthe same time say that nobody knows what justice is.You cannot say that you are in favor of democracy andat the same time in favor of limitations on the suffrage.You cannot favor universal suffrage and at the same timeoppose universal liberal education.By the earnest, continuous discussion of fundamentalissues in such a way a university would come to symbolizeand promote the Civilization of the Dialogue. The Civil­ization of the Dialogue cannot rest on faith; it mustembrace men of many faiths. It cannot rest on force;for the dialogue is the negation of force. It must reston reason and discussion and inquiry and communicationand understanding. If a university should symbolize andpromote the Civilization of the Dialogue, then this U ni­versity should do so, for we can do whatever ought to bedone.In this conception of our task all the concerns of theUniversity fall into place. We are concerned with themechanics and organization of education and researchnot because they are important in themselves, ,but becausearchaic mechanics and confused organization thwart anddeform our efforts to symbolize and promote the Civiliza­tion of the Dialogue. We are concerned with the unityof the University because a scattered, divided, disunitedcollection of scholars cannot have or carry out this com­mon purpose. Even the freedom of the scholar and thefreedom of the University are not ends in themselves.They are indispensable means without which a universitycannot become a center of independent thought, discus­sion, and criticism; an'd this is what the Civilization ofthe Dialogue requires it to be.The Civilization of the Dialogue has always been theonly civilization i'n which a free man would care to live.It is now the only civilization in which frec men canhope to survive; for it is the only one that, without fallinginto a barren skepticism, excludes the exquisite rancor oftheological hatred and repudiates force as the decisivefactor in the relations of men. The force that men canapply to decide their disputes now has reached such pro­portions that the settlement by this means of the nextinternational argument may result in the exterminationof all the parties to it. This is the progress we have madesince the .18th Century, when Gibbon could write, speak­ing of the wars of his day, "The laws and manners ofmodern nations protect the safety and freedom of thevanquished soldier; and the peaceful citizen has seldomreason to complain that his life' or even his fortune isexposed to the rage of war." In our time another fate isvisited upon the vanquished 'soldier, and the lives andfortunes of millions of peaceful citizens may be consumedin the rage of total war.The propagation of the Civilization of the Dialogueon a world scale presents great, perhaps insuperable,difficulties. The way to begin is to begin. Here in thismicrocosm we can begin. Whatever ought to- be done wecan do. And, since we can, we must.In the industrial big-timeA THING UNIQUETHE alumni file card with Percy, Charles Hartingwritten across the first line would at first glanceappear to be nothing extraordinary in the way ofsuch cards. A closer look, however, would 'reveal thesingular fact that in the same month of June, 1941, youngPercy had received an A.B. degree and become produc­tion manager of one of America's chief producers ofcamera equipment, the Bell and Howell Company ofChicago.And in January of this year that card became a thingunique in its field. A line was drawn through the words"production manager" and over it was written the crypticphrase "president 1/49." .Thus, at the age of 29, Percy became the youngest presi­dent in the industrial big time.'In his undergraduate days at Chicago, he had displayedunmistakable symptoms of success. A member of AlphaDelta Phi, he went into business wholesaling the necessi­ties of life to all the U of C fraternities. He captained the championship water polo team, swam with the tanksquad, and became president of Owl and Serpent. In1937 he took � summer job with Bell and Howell andspent spare time during the rest of his academic careerlearning the camera business.In June, 1941, he barely had time to take off cap andgown before he was handling Bell and Howell's boom­ing defense business. Two years later, at 23, having justbeen appointed secretary and member of Bell and Howell'sseven man board, he went off to war.The war didn't slow him down perceptibly. He en­listed in the navy's officer training program, was com­missioned 30 days later at Dartmouth.

Faith inmankind has bee n Fear harnessed faith; faith sublimated fear ..In a broadcast entitled Atomic Force: ItsMeaning for Mankind, on the University ofChicago Round Table of August 12, Mr.Hutchins expressed the feeling of many: "Upto last Monday," he said, "I must confess Idid not have much hope for a world state.But the alternatives now seem clear.

Part II will be concernedwith the problems of writing such a con­titution, and Part III will deal with theconstitution in the political environment ofthe world today.Mrs. Borgese, the wife of G. A. Borgeseand daughter of Thomas Mann, was a re­search associate during the drawing up ofthe constitution and is now executive editorof the Committee's publication, "ConunonCause."their common denomi­nator through theages.The emotionsaroused by the atomicbomb are not as newas one might think.Gun powder revolu­tionzed warfare to theext e n t of bendingman's mind, increas­ingly, on the searchfor lasting pea c e;Nobel was so shockedby the dreadfulness of his invention (T.N.T.)that he, not unlike many of our scientists, dedi­cated the balance of his efforts and fortune tothe cause of peace and the growta of a worldcommunity.

They are inspiredby fear-ageless.But on Hiroshima day, August 6, 1945, faithand fear fused in the unprecedented glare.Top to Be+toms Mortimer Adler, G. A.Borgese, Albert Leon Guerard" ErichKahler., Wilbur G. Katz, and RichardMcKeon3 be effective. The onlyhop e, therefore, ofabolishing war isthrough the monopolyof atomic force by aworld organization."His challenge wasanswered promptly.G. A. Borgese, thenprofessor in the divi­sion of the humanities, took the initiative. Ina memorandum, addressed jointly by him andRichard McKeon, then dean of that division,it was pointed out that everybody was talking. about world government, but, as in MarkTwain's observation about the weather, no­body was doing anything about it; that theworld government idea needed to be takendown to earth, to be spelled out. What wasneeded, in other words, was a constitution.It woud have been unrealistic to expect thatsuch a constitution could be drafted at thatstage by bureaucratic or diplomatic bodies.On the other hand, the task was too imposingto be tackled with any hope of success bysingle individuals. A great university wasbest suited to provide the scholarship andtheoretical thought required for the solutionof the basic problems inherent in the draftingof a world constitution. The University ofChicago, in particular, had played a decisiverole in inaugurating the atomic. age.THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE"There is no manifest destiny, but there is more than asymbolic value in the suggestion that the intellectualcourage that split the atom should be called, on this verycampus, to unite the world. An Institute of NuclearPhysics has been founded. We propose an Institute forWorld Government."The Memorandum was the basis of the new Institute,whose central organ was called, from the beginning,Committee to Frame a World Constitution.It was of course never the ambition of the Committeeto write and impose on the world the World Constitution.It was and is its ambition to design a concrete picture ofthe world state as it might look under certain conceivablecircumstances. The other aspect of the committee's taskis to prepare a basis of discussion for a United NationsCharter revision conference or world constituent assemblywhenever such an assembly may be called.Hutchins agreed to be the President of the Committee.McKeon, contributing from the fullness of his experiencein the history of political science, was chairman of mostof the meetings. But disagreement with the majority ofthe Committee on some basic issues, as well as his in­creasing obligations to UNESCO, prevented him from en­dorsing the final draft. G. A. Borgese, co-author and edi­tor of The City of Man and author of Goliath, theMarch of Fascism, became the Secretary of the organi­zation and main writer of the Draft. He also is the direc­tor of the research and editorial offices of the Committeeand of its monthly journal Common Cause.The room where the Committee assembled approxi­mately once a month (Cuban Room at the ShorelandHotel in Chicago, Harvard Club or Roosevelt Hotel inNew York) was small, bare and concentrating. On thehorseshoe table were placed, before 9 A. M., besidesthe usual ingredients such as note paper, pencils, waterglasses, some mimeographed research documents whichwere prepared by members and .research associates in theintervals between meetings. The Committee workedusually two eight-hour days, interrupted or half-inter­rupted only by cocktails and luncheons together at oneo'clock. When the members adjourned at 5 P. M., re­search associates would gather the papers and documents"often heavily annotated, sometimes with ornate doodlingwhose authorship it was teasing to identify.. The Committee developed into one of those rare or­ganisms where, as in the case of a" chamber orchestra,individual effort heightens the quality of the collectiveperformance, and the collective action raises the capabilityof the individual. While Hutchins can he compared tothe conductor who orders the tone and the tempi, andBorgese to a concert master who introduces many themes,the work was so composed that each of the twelve orthirteen participants had his constructive share, and evenwhen he receded into the background of checks and cri­tique and counter-checks, his contribution, as recordedin the 4,000 pages of Committee documents and steno­typed reports of the meetings, remained individual, con- 9Robert Redfield and Rexford Tugwelltrapuntal, an organic part of the whole.The majority of the men around the horseshoe tablewere, due to circumstances, members of the faculty of theUniversity of Chicago. They do not need much intro­duction to the readers of this journal. Mortimer Adler,Professor of Philosophy of Law, had expressed his beliefin world government as the only alternative to war inhis book How to Think About War and Peace. It is truethat he thought this solution was five hundred years away.Atom-shocked, he shrank the distance. A master in coun­terpoint, or dialectics, he contributed, and contributes,vitally to the Committee's work. He was part of thedrafting sub-committee which did the final editing of thetext. This sub-committee . included-besides Hutchins,Adler and Borgese-Robert Redfield, then Dean of theSocial Sciences. Known for the broadness and exactness. of his thinking, he contributed to the project, amongmany other things; his eminent authority in racial prob­lems.Wilbur Katz, Dean of the Law School, was a check,always kind and peaceable, on legal language and preci­sion. Rexford Tugwell was welcome especially on ac­count of his' direct experience in political and economicaction-in city-planning in New York, as Roosevelt ad­visor, as Governor of Puerto Rico-and for the outstand­ing contributions he has made, as a scholar, to the de­velopment of economic planning. Another economist onthe Committee, Who contributed by a critical reading ofthe text before it was published, is Harold Innis fromthe University of Toronto .Other members from outside were: Austrian-bornErich Kahler, Professor of Comparative Literature atCornell University, author of Man the Measure; Spring­fellow Barr, former President of St. John'S College whorecently became the director of the Foundation for WorldGovernment and is engaged in research for a peoplesworld constituent assembly.Charles McIlwain, professor emeritus at Harvard, madea basic contribution to the Committee's work with hisessay On the Concept of Sovereignty. James Landis,then Dean of Harvard's Law School, participated veryintensely in the debates during the first year, then toresign from the Commitee, when his duties as chairman10 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINEof the Civil Aeronautic Board, which he joined in De­cember 1946, became too demanding.Albert Leon Guerard, French-horn writer and Profes­sor of General Literature at Stanford University, joinedthe Committee from the West Coast. Through his lifework in teaching and writing, and most recently throughhis book Europe Free and United) he is' well known as apromotor of the supranational cause.There were three main topics discussed by the membersof the Committee during the preliminary or. preparatoryphase. .The first point was clear: What was the Committee'sattitude toward atomic control? Hutchins had given theanswer in his broadcast of August 12 (1945) from whichour whole enterprise had started. "Agreement amongsovereign nations to abstain from using the bomb," hehad said, "will not work." In this conviction we werejoined by an ever increasing number of atomic scientists,Harold Urey foremost among them. Atomic control,Urey stated over and over again, is not a technical orscientific problem. As such, it might be solved. A law,prohibiting production of atomic weapons within theUnited States could be enforced without difficulty. Itcannotbe enforced in the world at large because there isno government to enforce it. Atomic control thus is apolitical problem which cannot be solved separately fromthe problem of world government.Our attitude toward the second problem: How to actwith regard to the United Nations, was contingent on theanswer to the fir�t question. The United Nations, as anorganization of sovereign states, without the power to en­act and enforce law, is unable to prevent war or to estab­lish atomic control. Yet, it is the only organization wehave. It serves as a forum of discussion and especially inits functional agencies, such as the Food and AgriculturalOrganization or the UNESCO, it may makea consider­able contribution to the development of a world commu­nity. Hence "it goes without saying that this Committeedoes not envision its work in a spirit of hostile contradic­tion with the U.N. It may well be that the machineryand the authority of the U.N., if the U.N. so decides, willprove some day to be the best available passage way to­ward a real world- union. In this context the constitu­tional draft we are trying to design should be consideredas an all-round amendment to the U.N. Charter, adoptingits end while proposing the adequate means." (Commit­tee Document No. 103.)"But what if Russia won't play ball?" This was thethird question. "Weare having a hard enough time withthe Russians in the U.N. If we go beyond the U.N.,Russia will resign and our world government efforts will,paradoxically, hasten the outbreak of world war III." "The United Nations is a weakly remedy for a gravelyill international situation," runs the answer. "World gov­ernment would be a more powerful remedy, To say thatworld government would not work because the U.N. doesnot work is like saying that, since aspirin is. not goodenough to remedy the illness, let us rather not try peni­cillin.In more literal terms: The United Nations, while un­able to resist Russia's unjust demands and expansions, is,on the other hand, incapable of assuaging her justifiablefears: of interference in her internal economic system, ofthe establishment of a block of western vassals who wouldcontinually outvote her in all matters just or unjust. Aworld constitution based on justice would be binding forRussia, but it would be binding for the West as well. Ouroffer, moreover, should be such as to command theloyalty of all the other nations and races. A world con­stitution should spell out progress to the backward areas,emancipation for the unfree. If nine-tenths of mankindrallied behind such a program, could the Russian dicta­tors afford to resist? Could they afford to wage war?World government, defined by a world constitution, thusseems to offer the only chance for peace. We had andhave no illusions. It is a small chance. It is a slim hope.But it is the only one.While the speeches of Stalin and Molotov, of Churchill,Bevin and Truman accented the impossibility of atomiccontrol agreements, the Committee to Frame a WorldConstitution met for its first conference on November19, 1945.SWIFT -(Continued from Page 2)He was active in student (Blackfriars, Dramatics, Owl& Serpent) and fraternity (DKE) affairs and presidentof his senior class.

On Reunion Day, again in June this year, others will doubtless increase this number.Behind the scenes, continually searching out alumniwho have been useful citizens beyond their professionalor business responsibilities, is a committee of nine alumni.Three are appointed each year for a term of three years.They are from the classes between 1900and 1925.Candidates for citations must havedon'e undergraduate work at Chicago.(Medals, awarded only in 1941-42,were for distinguished achievements inone's business or profession as well asin civic activities, and were not re­stricted to College graduates.)

It is expected that the library will be builtas soon as plans can be completed and a site selectedin the city.The half-million dollar grant from Carnegie Corpo­ration will be available f�r the building of the Centerupon the formation of the Inter-Library Corporationwith ten original subscribers to the service.In addition to the $500,000 grant, the Carnegie' Cor­poration will' give $250,000 provided an equal sum ismade available in cash from other sources before June30, 1949.The boards of trustees of ten Midwestern universi­ties and colleges have approved the proposal in prin­ciple and have authorized their institutions to par­ticipate in the further planning and organizing of thecorporatiOfl. Eleven' other university and city librarieshave already expressed interest in the proposal.The ten universities which have approved the pro­posal in 'principle are: the University of Chicago, theUniversity of Illinois, Illinois Institute of Technology,Indiana University, State University of Iowa, MichiganState College, the University of Minnesota, NorthwesternUniversity, Purdue University, and the University ofWisconsin.Other libraries which' also have participation in theMidwest Library Corporation under advisement are: theChicago Public Library, the' University of Cincinnati,Cincinnati Public Library, the John Crerar Library(Chicago), the University of Kansas, the University ofMichigan, the University of Missouri, the University ofNebraska, Oberlin College, Washington University (St.Louis), and Western Reserve University (Cleveland).Invitation to other groups to participate will be ex­tended as the project is' developed: "The individual library can no longer hope to satisfythe needs of . scholarship from its own resources," Presi­dent Colwell stated in announcing the proposed library."There are not enough copies of some essential re­search materials for all libraries that need them, norcan even the wealthiest library finance the purchase ofall published material."The Midwest Inter-Library will make it possiblefor every cooperating institution to consider more intel­ligently the types of research programs which it willoffer, for universities will no longer have to decide onresearch libraries solely on' the basis of what is in thelibrary stacks or what the library can afford to buy."Libraries would continue to have their specialtiesbut the fact that they are not trying to be all thingsto all people would mean that they could do a betterjob of providing basic research needs of most subjects."Members of the organizing group of the Inter-Libraryproposal, in addition to President Colwell, were: Presi­dent H. B. Wells, Indiana University; R. E. Ellsworth,director of libraries, State University of Iowa; E. W.McDiarmid, university librarian, University of Min­nesota; and President E. B. Fred of the University ofWisconsin.Stars with polarized twinklesThe discovery that light coming from the distantstars within the Milky Way is polarized-brighter inone direction than in another-has been made by Dr.W. Arthur Hiltner, assistant director of Yerkes andMcDonald Observatories.Dr. Hiltner, associate professor of astrophysics, madehis unexpected discovery, which will be a major factorin future studies of the Milky Way, while he was work­ing with the 82-inch reflecting telescope at McDonaldObservatory.As the faint stars are observed through polarizedglass (in which light rays of certain preferential direc­tion, are let through in the same manner a directionalantenna receives certain radio waves) the brilliance ofthe star may be varied by turning the polaroid.There are many cases where reflected light is polar­ized, as sunlight reflected from a wet road, or a bluedaylight sky caused by scattering or reflection, of asmall part of the sunlight caused by irregularity of thedensities in the atmosphere. But the sunlight shiningdirectly through the atmosphere is not polarized andthe very tenuous gas known to exist between the starsis believed to have no effect on the polarization oftransmitted star light. _Dr. Hiltner believes that the polarization of starlightresults from interstellar particles which somehow musthave acquired a preferential direction with respect tothe plane of the Milky Way. But he emphasized that nocomplete understanding of the discovery is possible1314 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINEbefore further tests are carried out at McDonald andat Yerkes Observatories.Education steals homeRadio has joined with home study in two Universityof-Chicago Round Table courses on "World Politics" and"Economics in the Modern World," inaugurated by theUniversity of Chicago and the National BroadcastingCompany's University of the Air.The new home-study courses, offering basic prin­ciples and concepts of international relations and eco­nomics are built around the University of ChicagoRound Table broadcast and the Round Table's weeklytranscript and discussion of current issues. They arenon-credit.An innovation in adult education for the radio listener,the Round Table home-study courses in current affairsare typical of the broadcasting firsts the Round Tablehas introduced. Now in its nineteenth year, the RoundTable is the oldest educational broadcast continuouslyon the air. The Round Table was the first scriptlessshow on N.B.C.Experts appearing on the Sunday Round Table dis­cussions will provide authoritative and timely applica­tions of the basic principles of politics and economics�or the home-study course. They will also prepare ques­tions for the home-study student to examine and dis­cuss in 14 written lessons.Lessons will be individually read and corrected byinstructors in the University College Home Study De­partment. Courses may be started at any point, andare designed to allow the student to proceed at hisown pace.Round Table home-study students will on completionof the course be presented certificates. A fee of $25 IScharged for each course.Dickinson servingMrs. Ruth Allen Dickinson, "cited alumna" of theUniversity of Chicago, has been appointed to the staffof the dean of students at the University as assistantdirector of residence halls.Mrs. Dickinson, prominent in Hinsdale civic affairsand a staff 'member of the Association for Family Living,has had wide experience in social service. A graduateof the University in 1915, she took her master's degreein guidance and adjustment counselling in 1948. TheAlumni Association conferred a citation on Mrs. Dickin­son last June in recognition of her civic work.Active in a movement which provided the Hinsdalecommunity house for young people's activities, Mrs.Dickinson served as chairman of the Hinsdale recrea­tional committee, the Hinsdale school board, and theboard of directors of the Dul'age County Family ServiceAssociation. .Her professional position included those of consultantin child guidance, Glencoe public schools, the United Ruth Allen DickinsonStates Children's Bureau, and superintendent of theStock Yards District, United Charities of Chicago. Inaddition to her administrative duties at the University,Mrs. Dickinson will continue with the Association forFamily Living on a part-time basis.Bell In for SwiftSelection of Laird Bell, Chicago attorney, as chair­man of the board of trustees of the University of Chi­cago was announced at the annual trustees' dinner tothe faculty of the University.Mr. Bell succeeds Harold H. Swift, who requestedthat a successor be chosen for the position he has heldsince 1922. Mr. Swift continues as a member of theboard, to which he was elected in 1914.Remarking on his long tenure, as a member of theboard since October, 1914, and as chairman since June,1922, Mr'r Swift said: "Under the circumstances, thepresent chairman does not believe in such a longincumbency as chairman as he has enjoyed in hisinstance. He espoused this idea before the war and wasabout to act upon it when the war began."Many of our trustees were out of Chicago in warwork, and those who remained at home were heavilyinvolved in war business and personal affairs. On thataccount, the plan was postponed."Mr. Bell, partner of the Chicago law firm of Bell,Boyd & Marshall, was gr<l:duated from Harvard Uni­versity in 1904 and received his J.D. degree from theUniversity of Chicago law school in 1907. He has beena member of the board of trustees of the University ofChicago since January 1929, and is vice-chairman ofthe board. In 1943 he was awarded an Alumni Medalfor "distinction in one's field and service to society."Mr. Bell also is a member of the board of overseers,Harvard University, chairman of the board of CarletonCollege, and in 1946 was president of the HarvardAlumni Association,Referring to the decision of Mr. Swift to retire, andthe selection of Mr. Bell as his successor, ChancellorHutchins said: "The University has. CD me first in hislife. Mr. Swift's dedication to the University has beena model and an inspiration to everybody connectedTHE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINEwith it. And along with that has gone a dedication tohis friends that surpasses anything I ever saw. He hasbeen a great chairman of the board; he is a great friend."For 20 years Laird Bell has given the University ofChicago the full benefit of his unusual intelligence. Aschairman of the committee on instruction and researchof the board he has solved many problems. He was thearchitect for the present organization of the faculty.I am sure you will agree that if Mr. Swift is determinedto drop the reins there is nobody better qualified to guidethe University during the coming years than Mr. Bell."The winnahsPrizes in the thousand dollar bracket and distinguishedtitles have been awarded University of Chicago pro­fessors.Dr. Arno B.

This campus "social, cultural, and rec­reational" organization, now entering its third year,has already provided more than 1,500 events for some100,000 participants.Headed by Marshall Lowenstein, Law School studentfrom Richmond, Virginia, the Student Union DanceDepartment (in earlier years the Student Social Com­mittee) recently held a Washington Prom week-endnever equalled on this campus. The 1949 version ofWash Prom was designed to substitute for the unifyingforce of a homecoming week, and it effectively keptsome 1,500 students hopping for almost two solid days.And on Sunday they res+edStarting on Friday afternoon, February ��,-partlcipantsgathered in Mandel Hall for an official welcome to WashProm Week-end, followed. by the "Wash Prom Varie­ties," an original, musical show presented by a largeaggregation of talented students. The evening saw theusual pre-Prom parties, and the Prom itself was held in"the Grand Ballroom of the' Stevens Hotel, with Ray An­thony and his orchestra performing.Giving students little rest, Wash Prom week-end con­tinued early Saturday afternoon, with a parade fromthe dorms to the Fieldhouse, a pep rally, and a basketballgame between the championship intramural teams fromthe U. of C. and Illinois Tech. During half-time a jazzconcert was given, while Saturday evening saw numerousopen houses, with bands stationed in two fraternityhouses and one of the women's dorms. On Sunday stu­dents were allowed to rest!With interests primarily centered on student life onthe Chicago campus, Student Union became increasinglyattentive to the need of adequately representing University.student activities nationally, as well as bringing in alumniadvice and counsel through the creation of an AdvisoryCouncil, presided over by Student Union Executive Vice­President James F. Oates, 'Business School student fromSioux' Falls, South Dakota. Meeting with the S. U.Board, two faculty advisors, and four ex-Student Unionmembers are two representatives of the alumni body,Mrs. John M. Clark (Margaret Merrifield, AB '39), andWalter J. Atkins (AB '40), Executive Secretary of theAlumni Foundation.On the national scene, Chicago's Student Union in­creasingly works with other universities, and will havethe major student role in the annual convention of theAssociation of College Unions, meeting late in April atthe Broadmoor Hotel in Colorado Springs, Colorado.ONE MANIS OPINIONTHE, formidable document that summarizes in fig­lues the annual operations of the University is athand in the shape of the Comptroller's Report. Itis a statistical statement that an accountant can readwith more ease than the layman, but even one whose skillwith figures does not extend beyond Form 1040 can getthe general idea, with the help of those sections whereMr. Daines uses words instead of numbers as his symbols.What emerges first is the extent of the University'soperations as measured by the post-war dollar. Thetotal, or Consolidated Budget, was $31,586,000 for1947-48. Of this, what is known as the Regular Budget,covering normal and continuing educational and re­search activities, cost $15,640,000. Under another classi­fication of Restricted Expendible Funds, is $10,533,000received from the U. S. government under non-profitcontracts largely for special research projects of nationalinterest. Approximately $1,450,000 more in this cate- .gory was for general projects being supported for alimited time, such as a piece of research for which athree-year grant has been made by a foundation. Theother major item in the $31,58'6,000 total is representedhy $4,057,000 from "auxiliary enterprises"-residencehalls, dining rooms, bookstores, from which there wasthe small net profit of $93,800, used for general pur­poses.To support its budget, the University had the highestincome in its history from endowment funds and feesfrom students and patients. Yet it was necessary totake $1,506,000 from reserves to balance the budget:This is deficit financing.Deficit financing. is nothing new in the University'shistory. As Chancellor Hutchins said in his recentspeech to the Citizens Board (Tower Topics, Decem­ber 1948), the University rose to. glory in a burst ofdeficits. The most ardent exponent of deficit financingwas William RaIney Harper, who sorely tried thepatience and generosity of John D. Rockefeller withannual deficits of impressive sums. But the early Uni­versity was not the only one that ran behind. TheUniversity also had to engage in the nervous businessof drawing on its limited reserves during most of thedepression years.Dr. Harper wanted a great university. To get it, hehad to have men whose ideas would make the Universitygreat, and then he had to provide the money andfacilities they needed. The needs always outran themoney he had in hand. It was fortunate for him, andfor the achievement of the contributions which the Uni­versity has made, that Mr. Rockefeller's forbearanceexceeded even his fortune. Between them, the organ- By WILLIAM V. MORGENSTERN. '20, JD '22izer and the founder did create a great university. Themoney Mr. Rockefeller and his foundations gavewas also sufficient, by the standards of those stable times,to keep the University great into. the remote future.That money is still important in keeping the Universitywhere it is, but it no longer can do so. by itself.The last several years have been difficult ones becauseof inflation. Like an individual on a salary, the Uni­versity's income hasn't risen commensurately with itsliving costs. The means of keeping the. Universitygreat have also become more costly, for the problemswith which it is concerned are complicated ones requiringa large variety of specialists and some fancy types ofequipment. Seventeen departments and institutes, forexample, are teamed up for the attack on cancer.To alumni, the most striking illustration of what ishappening to an institution such as the University isthe fact that student fees provide a larger part of thesupport than does endowment. Last ye�r student feeswere $5,119,000, - or one-third of the Regular Budget.Endowment income was $4,080,000, or 26.4 percent.The proportion of budget support from endowmentincome has been steadily dropping, and the proportionof student fees has been steadily-and too rapidly­increasing. This despite the fact that endowment hashad accretions, and the rate of return is an impressive5.77 percent on book value.Those figures answer the assertion that the Universityis "rich." The $72,344,000 of endowment is a lot ofmoney in one sense, but it is not a lot of money whenit provides little more than one-fourth of the cost ofmaintaining the regular teaching and research activi­ties of the University. It is even of smaller proportionswhen contrasted with the amount of money taken fromstudents. Most of us as students knew the time wheneducation on the Midway was heavily subsidized, andin comparison to the present, tuition was a token charge.As Mr. Hutchins said in "A Business Without a Bal­ance Sheet,". a university is in a n unsound financialposition if it can not raise money. It must raise moneyfrom all possible sources, and all of them must under­stand what the University is doing and what it meansto the development and welfare of society. And it mustraise the kind of money it needs. Money for SOmespecial purposes is often easy to get, but most of all itneeds money for basic general purposes.Among the sources from which it needs money is thealumni body. They have insight into the purposes andthe standards of the University. They are-:-or shouldbe�the group most likely to provide money for thebasic activities of the University.16CALENDARTuesday, March IPUBLIC LECTURE-Universitr of Chicago Committee 01\ Social Thought,James Henry Breasted Ha I, Oriental Institute, 1155 East 58th Street, 4:00P.M.

Chicago school system until 1938when a real break in· health put her inBillings Hospital for 28 months, The diag­nosis was tuberculosis and there were manycomplica tions:An additional five months were spent indie: west. It was a long, discouraging bat­tle bur-the day come when she was readyto return to her position in Chicago. AtBillings final tests were run and she pre­pared for reinstatement.In almost the same mail with her schoolappointment came notification from Bil­lings that the tests again ran positive.. Fighting off despair she returned westand, through the kind offices of a friend,secured a teacher-patient position in theMessa Vista Sanatorium at Boulder. Butshortly she was only a patient.That was seven years ago. AlthoughHazel is still at the Boulder sanatorium itis only because she has no other place togo.

But actually, what's behind this billion?The real point} it seems to us} is that almost 200} 000 people all over thecountry baoe chosen our mutual company to help them become financiallyindependent. Families and' individuals - they have hopes and plansfor the future which they value at one billion dollars - and they haveplaced them in our hands. .This makes us feel proud ... and humble at the same time. That's whywe're not doing much crowing ...But when we mail out those monthly' checks and stop to think whateach one means - a deserving student sent to college : .. a fatherlessfamily held together under its own roof ... a widow maintained in decentcomfort ... an elderly couple retired to well-earned leisure ...That's when we really feel like crowing! ."See your National Life underwriter at least once a year"FOUNDED 1850: A MUTUAL COMPANY· OWNED BY ITS POLICYHOLDERSCOPYRIGHT 194.9 ElY N"T10NAL.
