prc'fahricate in Far FutureBy LARRY KREBSHope that the present Universityhousine crisis w*" relieved bypre-fabricated housine unite Isstill in the distant future, DonaldV Murphey, AssisUnt University{business manager indtcateu tnisweekiThe first of the new ready-buiitunits are not expected until March1 Murphey announced. Abouttwenty-five units are expected atfirst and will be followed at therate of five per week until a totalof 190 unitrf have been obtained. Though the University is tryingto obtain some prefabricated dor¬mitory type units for single men,the first units will be for veteranswith famili^ only. The houseswill be long and narrow, the unitswith a single bedroom measuring13' X 29', while the two-bedroomunits will be 13' x 38'. The unitswill be loaned to the Universityby the government free of charge,and some of the costs of installa¬tion and maintenance will also bepaid by the government. Presentsites available for the location of the units are at 60th and Green-w'ood and also at the comer of59th and Maryland.Married Veterans Biggest ProblemCommenting on the recenthouse-to-house canvass of hous¬ing facilities in the neighborhood,Joseph H. Cotton, Bursar, said,'‘The results were rather discour¬aging. The few rooms reportedwere mainly offered to girls whowere willing to work part-time asa maid for payment of their room.The most urgent problem is stillfinding housing facilities for mar¬ ried veterans and their families.”Cotton went on to say that "thisneighborhood has been almostsqueezed dry of housing facilitiesin the past few years, with theresult that we are going into otherneighborhoods, the most recent ofwhich is the area east of StonyIsland bounded by 67th and71st streets. A house-to-housecanvass was made there, but fewrooms were uncovered. Exampleof the type of thing we’re upagainst is the owner of a 20 or 25room house who told our man,T’m sorry, but the house won’t hold any more people. We haveEIGHT living here now.’ ”It was also learned that the Uni¬versity owned apartment buildinglocated at 61st and University hasbeen partially evacuated by thetenants and five veterans andtheir families have moved in. Itwill be several months, however,before all 24 of the apartments areavailable for University use, as theOPA allows the occupants of abuilding whose ownership changeshands six months in which to findanother place before they can beevicted.Chtrann arnntt54 YEARS OF SERVICE AND LEADERSHIPVOL. 5, NO. 8—Z-149 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO, FRIDAY, JANUARY 18,' 1946 31 PRICE 5 CENTSCreate Fund forVeterans NeedingImmediate LoansIn reply to the “letter to the Editor’* concerning veteranloans in the January 11 issue of The MAROON, it has beenlearned that there is a loan fund available to veterans who arein immediate need.This fund, created for the assistance of students in financialdistress, may be used by veteransPolio DriveUnder WayAt U of CThe March of Dimes is on. Dis¬tributed in various buildings oncampus are twenty-two contain¬ers for contributions. These re¬ceptacles are in every large dorm,at Hutchinson Commons, Educa¬tion, and International House Com¬mons, at the Cloister Club, theBookstore, the Bursar’s and Rey¬nold’s Club Barber Shop.This March of Dimes is spon¬sored by the National Foundationfor Infantile Paralysis each yearon Franklin Delano Roosevelt’sbirthday in order to raise fundsfor their needs during the comingyear. Fifty per cent of the moneygoes for the help of many casesof poliomyelitis which occur nor¬mally throughout the country; theother fifty per cent is used inepidemic aid, education, and re¬search.Each year many new nurses andphysical therapists are trained tocombat paralysis, and new inform¬ation concerning the disease isdistributed throughout the country.Each year the foundation plans, in¬augurates and finances—throughgrants to laboratories, universitiesand other organizations—a nation¬wide program of research into thecause, prevention, and cure ofpolio.By this week, the past twenty-four months will have seen thirty-one poliomyelitis cases added tothe files of the National Founda-for Infantile Paralysis.

The drive will continue until February 14, in whichtime $4,000 must be raised over last year’s achievement of$3,500. All students will be asked to contribute to individualsolicitations and the various ac¬tivities sponsored by the drive.Ed Wood, co-chairman of thecommittee said, "Many of thestudents who were contacted lastTuesday were in doubt as to thepurpose and origin of the organiz-ation." W.S.S.F. began in 1940 withDr. Glenn T. Seaborg, co-discov¬erer of plutonium, one of the basesof the atomic bomb, was cited asthe outstanding young man of Chi¬cago for 1945 by the Chicago Ju¬nior Association of Commerce.The award, which was presentedto Dr. Seaborg at the annual Ju¬nior Association dinner, Wednes¬day night at the Morrison Hotel,was given to the scientist for hiswork at the University of Chi¬cago in the production of theatomic bomb.Thirty-three year old Dr. Sea¬borg has been in charge of re¬search at the University for sep¬arating plutonium in amounts andpurity required for war purposes.He has also been primarily respon¬sible for the chemical separationprocedures which were used inconnection with the manufactureof plutonium at Clinton, Tennes-isee, and HaaCoid, Washington;the purpose of aiding students ofvarious countries affected by thewar. Since then the drive has beensponsored on many campuses inthe United States. More than $200,-000 has been sent to China, Czech¬oslovakia, and other Europeancountries badly scarred by the war.Last year the University of Illinoisalone collected $7,000. These fundsgo to buy textbooks, supply stu¬dent hospitals, and provide ma¬terials for reconstruction where itis needed.During the drive a carnival willbe held at Ida Noyes, the campuswill be bombed with leaflets, vari¬ous dances given, and the climaxwill be the annual Tag Day Dance.Niebuhr to SpeakDr. Reinhold Niebuhr, interna¬tionally famous author and dis¬tinguished member of the UnionTheological Seminary faculty, willspeak at 11 a.m. this Sunday atthe regular services in RockefellerMemorial Chapel.

Now thatthe war has ended, boundarieshave been relaxed, and suppliescan be more easily sent to sickand hungry students and bomb-ravaged universities. Buying text¬books, paying for the stay of run¬down students in health centers,and providing fuel for the lampsby which students study, are onlya few of the ways in which theFund helps students all over theworld.The newly organized Inter-or¬ganizational Council is makingthis its first big venture, an eventvery successfully sponsored byChapel Union last year.

What has not been spiked is the ominoustrend expanding control by vested interests offree speech and free thinking on the nation’scampuses.Recent months have indicated where thestraws are blowing. At Texas University lastspring, a president and two professors wereousted for defending labor. At William andMary College, a student editor was replacedfor demanding racial equality and justice. AtColorado, the Board of Regents refused salaryincreases to free-speaking, hard-hitting liberalprofessors.The American Association of UniversityProfessors warns that the postwar years maybe marked by an “impaired perspective” and awave of attacks on liberal thinking and teach¬ing in the colleges. It does not fear tamperingwith outspoken views on international rela¬tions so much as on domestic issues. Men whoonce bitterly debated international relationshave for the most part reached agreement, butnow find themselves poles apart on such ques¬ tions as the rights of labor, business, racialminorities, taxation, and federal vs local gov¬ernment.In recent years there has been a steadilywidening rift between the thinking of the Uni¬versities generally progressive, and the lay¬man. It is only natural that some of the issuesof the day be discussed in the classroom, andit is altogether probable that many of the opin¬ions voiced by professors and students maynot jibe with those of influential persons out¬side the quadrangles. No one questions theright of the public or of special interest groupsto disagree. What is feared is that there willbe suppression rather than the fair debatenecessary among men of good will if the issuesare to be resolved.In view of the fact that the totalaria'n pow¬ers banked heavily on regimentation of schol¬ars in their ascendancy to power, it would bea tragedy if an era of witch-hunting werelaunched in our Universities. Students andprofessors must be alert in maintaining one ofour most cherished liberties—the right of freeenquiry, the freedom to seek information wher¬ever it may be found and to express one’s con¬victions without fear of reprisal. Q.L Dorm ♦ ♦ ♦Don't Pass the BuckChancellor Hutchins in his message to the Board of Trusteesasserted that the building of an international state is the majorchallenge now confronting scholars the world over.World Student Service Fund, an international organization,implements Mr. Hutchins’ unstated assumption—that there bescholars. Its highly meritorius campaign has as its end thesupport of destitute students and professors in Europe and Asia.Its quota on the Quadrangles this week is $4,000—$1 per stu¬dent. It needs your help. Give it liberally; give it in the knowl¬edge that you are taking a direct part in world peace planning.“Don’t pass that buck, mister—give it!”ConcerningThe new schisms within the Socialist club dramatically ex¬emplifies the ideological and functional bankruptcy of campuspolitical clubs. Their membership rolls are virtually at rockbottom; their programs lack the planning and drive essentialto political clubs; their influence is non-existent. Once a teem¬ing center of political activity, U. of C. student political in¬terest is sterile.Badly needed at Chicago is an organization patterned afterHarvard’s Liberal Union, a progressive political group, notbalked by rigid ideology and yet strikingly effective. Member¬ship should be open to students of liberal political convictions,eager to translate those beliefs into political action. Its mem¬bership must not be limited to a narrow handful; it must besufficiently large to carry prestige and power, sufficiently smallto be manageable.The problems such an organization could answer in Chicagoare unlimited—intolerance, housing, labor, schooling, recreation.Immediate steps should be taken by campus liberals to imple¬ment such a program.^l|triu)o liaroonFounded Oct. 1, 1892The University of Chicago Official Student Newqiaper1943 ACP All-AmericanPublished every Friday during the academic year’ by THE CHICAGOMAROON, an independent student organization of the University of Chicago.Abe Krash, Editor-in-ChiefWard J.

First ConcertOnly AverageCritic ClaimsBy DANIEL* ZELINSKYThe first University Concert ofthe Winter Quarter in MandelHall, last Friday, was a competentbut generally uninspired perform¬ance of Mozart’s chamber musicby members of the Chicago Sym¬phony Orchestra. It made finelistening on the whole; but theplaying ranged from brilliant todispleasing, centering on the “ade¬quate’* level.The last piece on the programbut the first in interest was thePiano Quartet No. 1 in G Minor,K. 473, with Perry O’Neill, pianist,John Weicher, violinist, MiltonPreves, violist, and Dudley Pow¬ers, ’cellist. The music was afirst-rate product of Mozart’slater period and showed the sameinspiration as his later orchestralworks. The brightest spot in thisperformance was Perry O’Neill’ssensitive and understanding in¬terpretation; under his fingers Mo¬zart seemed to take on his fullmeaning. O’Neill undoubtedlygave the best performance of theevening; in fact, in one or twospots he acted as its saving grace.The first piece on the programwas the fine, lively Quartet No. 23lU'F. K. 590, played by the Chi¬cago Symphony Quartet, consist¬ing of the string trio mentionedabove, with Franz Polesny as sec¬ond violinist. The same com¬ments apply here as regards theinterpretation. Weicher, however,deserves special mention for hisharsh tone, his uninspired, literalapproach • and, in some sections,his apparent eagerness to get thething over with—all of whichoften made it necessary to closeone ear to the first violin in orderto hear the more mellow tones ofthe remaining three instruments.The Sonata, K. 292, for bassoonand ’cello, played by Clarke Kess¬ler and Dudley Powers, was aquaint little piece of early Mozartwhich was pleasant to hear. PoorMr. Kessler, however, never got areal solo for all his diligent puff¬ing.Probably the least interesting ofthe four Mozart works was theQuintet in E Flat, K. 452, forpiano, oboe, clarinet, horn andbassoon, played by Perry O’Neill,Florian Mueller, Robert Linde-mann, Helen Kotas and ClarkeKessler. The instruments soundedmore effective when they playedsingly than in ensemble. We mightalso mention that Mr. Weicherturned in his prize performance ofthe eveiiJiig here as page turner.

Singer of “GlassMenagerie,” fame struck me as being rather a waste of time andnot always artistic energy.By the continental playwright, Milkos Laszlo, better knownfor his “Shop Around the Corner,”“St. Lazafe’s Pharmacy” has a thinplot about a young pharmacist whoshould be contented with hisquaint old shop, his wife and child,but who is fascinated by Montreal.Although his assistant and wifewalk out on him—in that order—he is saved finally from an un¬happy fate by his mother, who hadsuccumbed to the same spirit ofwanderlust thirty years before.But if the plot is slight andhackneyed, the lines most woefully unoriginal, the two principal act¬ors don’t do much to make thingsany better. Miriam Hopkins, asthe wife and mother, was accusedby Variety of flagrant overacting,but is seems rather that she doesn’tact at all.

Whether it be better topay $95 P®** month for two small rooms or to sleep on the Mid¬way is the current problem of the returning servicemen whoare seeking knowledge at America’s foremost institution ofof liberal education.The swarm of veterans hasmore than doubled in threemonths; each man is meeting thesame problems, prices and “novacancies” signs. One ex-armyman paid out $400 for furnitureworth $200 in order to rent theroom that contained the furniture.A sailor and his wife scrape to¬gether $95 on the first of themonth for a room and a kitchen.Another Navy couple found a“cheap” flat for only $90 per.Thirty days* shelter afforded by asingle room is costing one vet $44.ArniinH THHnf Prir^P'or the benefit of those readerswho wonder at this open breakingof ceiling regulations, here are.several methods designed togouge the veterans without over¬working the landlord’s super-ego.The law states that redecorationor refurnishing of a room orapartment justifies a boost in rentproportional to the cost of the im¬provements. This enables thepeacetime black marketeers tochange a light bulb in a room andskyrocket the rent.Another device used to takeadvantage of a financially pressedvet who receives $90 a monthfrom the government is to claimthat an apartment has never be¬fore been rented.

Urey, Professor of Chemistry, Nobel prize-win¬ning nuclear chemist, and authority on the atom bomb, statedin an exclusive interview with the MAROON that uninformedpoliticians of this and other countries were unwittingly leadingthe world into another war, due to their ignorance and misun¬derstanding of the atom bomb, andthat “Initial steps are being taken,but the steps must be taken faster,and they must go much fartherthan is now contemplated.”Doctor Urey is in a position tospeak about this subject with au¬thority. He is one of the mostpolitically active atomic scientistsin the United States, having ap¬peared frequently on the Washing¬ton political scene, and having along record of scientific achieve¬ments to his credit.During the World War I he wasa chemist in an explosives plant.After the war he returned to col¬lege and, in 1923, received hisPh.D. from the University of Cali¬fornia, and then went to Denmarkon the Scandinavian-AmericanFellowship and studied physicsunder Niels Bohr; the famous phy¬sicist. In 1929 he became an As¬sociate Professor of Chemistry atColumbia University, and in 1934he received the Nobel Prize inchemistry for his discovery andisolation of deuterium, the isotopeof hydrogen. At the beginning ofWorld War II he became directorof the atomic bomb work at Col¬umbia. He is now a Professor ofChemistry at the University ofChicago, and a member of thenewly-formed Institute for Nu¬clear Studies.Current Ideas WhichNeed ChangeProfessor Urey believes that, ifpermanent peace is to be attained,the politicians must change manyof their ideas. Some of these are;1. “The atom bomb is just an¬other weapon, and a defense for itcan be found, just as a defensehas been developed for every otherweapon.^’ Professor Urey askedjust how effective these defenseshave been in the past.2. “The United Nations Organi¬zation is a step in the right direc¬tion.” Professor Urey answered,“It is indeed a starting-point, butit is merely a multiple treaty, andtreaties have been shown to beuseless time and time again.”3. “By possessing the atombomb the United States can pro¬tect herself from another war.”Professor Urey answered that“there is a higher probability thatan unarmed country will be betterable to get off lightly as historyhas shown that the armed, aggres¬sive country always finds trou¬ble.”Need International Unity-Professor Urey stated that sov¬ereignty, however, is -the primaryobstacle to permanent peace andthat a working international or¬ganization is the basic necessityof the world today. He stated thatthe effectiveness of such an or¬ganization has been proven nu¬merous times, and he cited thecases of the original thirteen col-U.T.1131-1133 E. 55th St.Complete Selectionof Beers andOther BeveragesHIDway 0524Blatz Beer onies and the old European city-states as examples of ability ofsuch an organization to maintainpeace and unity. He concludedthat, inasmuch as many politi¬cians do not seem to realize this,it is up to other groups to dosomething, and that the studentsof this University are in a posi¬tion to, and duty-bound to, cam¬paign vigorously for a workableinternational organization for thecreation of a permanent peace.Recognize NewMarxist CluhThe University of ChicagoMarxist Club has received offi¬cial recognition as a new campuspolitical organization, it was an¬nounced this week.The new organization, formedat the end of the Autumn quarter,has as its purpose the “Study ofMarxian-Leninist theory andpractice in relation to present-day events.”Not connected in any way withthe so-called “University of Chi¬cago Communist Club,” the newclub is chiefly Trotskyist.Speaker at the Club’s first meet¬ing this afternoon at four o’clockin Social Sciences 122 will be Al¬bert Goldman, prominent U.
