Discusses Mills liberal frontier 936 accepted in Collegeby Susan GuggenheimThe special paradox andproblem of the liberal fron¬tier seems to be that “forthe maintenance of the lib¬eral frontier the new generationis quite clearly indispensable. Andyet, to understand its role withadequacy the new generation is al¬most bound to educate itself outof its own capacity for innova¬tion.” stated Donald Meiklejohn ina lecture on “John Stuart Milland the Liberal Frontier” Sundaynight.Meiklejohn, professor of philo¬sophy gave his lecture as an in¬troduction to a Sunday night Hillel“Frontiers of Freedom” series. Heis leaving the University of Chi¬cago at the end of this year tobecome professor of philosophyand social science at Syracuse Uni¬versity.Meiklejohn considered the terms“Liberal,” John Stuart Mill, and“frontier” in relation to eachother.He said that when he uses theterm “liberal” he means to con¬vey “the capacity to respond notto pressure but to principles.” Hespeaks of humor not readily dashedby disappointment, of resolutiononly stiffened by adversity, ofeagerness broght by challengeonly into greater keenness andprecision.” Liberalism is, “takingarms against troubles, effectivelyopposing them so that they arehardly troubles at all but opportu¬nities, chances for the exercise oftalents and powers.”We are all in a sense, Meikle¬john states, liberals as so con¬ceived; but by the same token weare also all conservatives. For weare committed vO both the liberat¬ing and conserving functions. “Ifthere were no accumulated fundof thinking, no available store ofconceiving and valuing and plan¬ning, there could hardly be anypowers worth liberating, worth ap¬plying.”John Stuart Mill combined hiseagerness for the expanded suf-rage, the extended participationof people in public affairs, with anSG elections maybe declared invalidThe College Student Gov¬ernment and NSA electionsmay be invalid because ofa discrepancy between thenumber of voters who signed theelection roster and the number ofballots cast. The discrepancy cameout last night in the recount ofthese elections.In the College it was by about 30ballots (eight of the winning can¬didates could lose by a 30 votechange). It has not yet been de¬termined how many in NSA. TheElection and Rules Committee de¬cided late last night to take theproblem to the student-facultycourt for a decision. One possibledecision would be to call a newelection.Tlie cause of the discrepancycould be ballot-box stuffing ormerely error by an inexperiencedpoll-watcher. It will probably beimpossible to prove which expla¬nation is correct.If the election is declared validthere will be three changes ofthose elected. Bruce Rappaport(POLIT) will replace Bev Splane(GNOSIS) in the NSA delegation.Dick Jacobson (POLIT) will re¬place Terry Petterson (GNOSIS)as an alternate in NSA. and TerriRay (POLIT) will replace AllanSussman (POLIT) as a collegerepresentative in Student Govern¬ment.CBS workshop setNine UC faculty membersand eight representativesfrom major industries willparticipate in the GraduateSchool of Business Student-Man¬agement workshop on April 20.The Workshop, which was or¬ganized by Jerry Baer, a first yearstudent in the Business School,will give students an opportunityto participate in discussions withmen in industry and will enablethem to apply their theoreticalknowledge to real problems, hesaid. abiding concern about the pres¬sures toward conformity and avoid¬ing conspicuous difference fromother people.Mill, said Meiklejohn, was oc¬cupied with “defining and assur¬ing the conditions under which theprocesses of free discussion coulddo their proper work.” He wasconcerned, added Meiklejohn,“with the necessary conditions, orrequisites, of freedom, as wellas with freedom’s character anddestiny.”Meiklejohn finds in Mill, “pro¬phet of individual liberalism thathe was,” “ample provision for thesocial undertakings involved in theintellectual cultivation. The busi¬ness of learning and studying andand teaching was taken as a mat¬ter of course as a necessary partof society’s effort to provide forits own indispensable intellectualcapital.”Using a contemporary example,Meiklejohn interpreted Mill assupporting public aid to educationon the national level. He takesMill to have said that he ex¬pected this could be done withoutthe sorts of strings and condi¬tions that hamper the free pursuitof the truth. He was identifyingthe learned class as a “socially use¬ful class and one whose specialfunction and excellence entitles itto special support.”Meiklejohn then spoke of Millas a spokesman for the liberalfrontier, giving an application ofJ. F. Turner and Woodrow Wil¬son’s common idea of the frontierenriched by Mill.The theme and question of Mill’sgreat essay “is to insist on thevalidity of seeking out the strange,the original, the outrageous, thenatural as against the conven¬tional. Mill’s prayer for the US isthe liberal prayer — that ourcountry continue to have, to bethe frontier.The positive aspect of the fron¬tier is the juxtaposition of civil¬ized and primitive conditions. “Thepioneer, that is to say, the man ofthe frontier, is the man who car¬ries the full-formed culture for¬ward into the wilderness. Thepioneering country is the onewhich, while faithful to its ownaccumulated traditions, meets thenew wilderness of its own andother countries future with ap¬propriate flexibility.”Mill’s permanent meaning,claims Meiklejohn, is “as thespokesman of the permanent hu¬man frontier — in part the spokes¬man for each new generation, asinnocent and "brash as it may be,impart the infusing edge of chal¬lenge and innovation in a society’sslow evolution.”The essential point the liberalfrontier as Meiklejohn sees it is that it is not simply the new, theraw, the unanalyzed, but “It isthe new adequately understoodthrough the old. It is the new asdistinct from merely different.”And this why the public mustpreserve the learned class, for”in the pursuit of knowledge inthe learned class we have par ex¬cellence the employment of theculture that enables us to trans¬cend that achievement.” The office of admissionsmailed out 936 leters of ad¬missions to the College lastThursday, stated Director ofAdmissions and Aid Charles D.O'Connell. O'Connell estimatedthat about 50% of the accepted stu¬dents are expected to matriculate.61 students had already been ad¬mitted under the early dicisionsplan, through which the candidateis admitted in October if he appliesonly to UC. O’Connell estimatedthat the incoming class will num¬ ber between 550 and 570. Exactfigures will not be available untilthe first week in May, since thestudents need not notify the Uni¬versity until May 1.1800 applications had been re¬ceived. 120 students were placedon the waiting list, and the re¬mainder either withdrew, failedto complete applications, or wererejected.Last year, about 900 personswere accepted in April out of1650 applications. The enteringclass numbered about 570.Yol. 71 — No. 93 University of Chicago, Wednesday, April 17, 1963 31Multiple college committee metThe Committee on Multi- one college of science, and not ally present proposals to the Pol-ple Colleges has established I°ur> or that there might be no jCy Committee, which in turn willseveral subcommittees to SO- college of science at aU- present them to the College facultylicit ideas and proposals for At sa™? meeting. which was for legislation,undergraduate education within on the Committee de- , .,the frame work of the multiple cided to focus its discussions on In lts second meeting, heldcollege, system. the idea of an association of col- March 25 the Multiple college com-, ... . leges grouped within a division of mittee discussed the wav in whichThe subcommittees will examine undergraduate education, rather th ji - could he senaratedthe possibilities of setting up col- tban on the idea of several indi- . ,leges in the liberal arts, social vidual branching off from Most of thls investigation centeredsciences, physical sciences, biolog- one iaree general college around the question of whether theical sciences and mathematics.

After all, federal aid legislation means moreand better fellowships, scholarships, loan funds, libraries, research facili¬ties, classrooms, and teachers. TO THE EDITOR:I write you in reference to ClydeKennard, the Negro about whomyou have carried stories, who wasformerly a U. of C. student andwas later imprisoned in Mississip¬pi following his attempt to enteran all-white segregated universityin Mississippi and who is now dy¬ing of cancer of the liver. The problem is, as Mr. Finersaw it, the increase in governmentexpenditures. The city today isobliged to build more schools androads. In addition the city mustprovide for the traditional serv¬ices: police and fire protection,sewage disposal, water purifica¬tion, etc.; these costs increase eachyear.An education bill will get through Congress only if there isenough sentiment for it among the students and teachers of thecountry, according to Phillip DesMarais, who is on the staff of Secretaryof Health, Education, and Welfare Celebrezze. Nonetheless, he said, andDr. Deborah P. Wolfe, education staff chief for the House Committeeon Education and Labor, confirmed, almost no letters from collegeand. university students have been received. It has come to my attentionthat Mr. Kennard would welcomethe gift of books about the Amer¬ican Negro, in the fields of his¬tory, political science and govern¬ment, natural sciences, philoso¬phy, and sociology since the year1955, as well as the great classi¬cal novels. He has an abundantsupply of books but not the sorthe wants to read.Mr. Clyde Kennard’s addressfrom now on will be Rural RouteOne, Box 70, Hattiesburg, Missis¬sippi.CELIA TOWNEIllinois Senator and former UC Professor Paul Douglas agreesthat letters from the student community would have a favorable effecton legislation, but noted that he, too, has not seen much interest in Welfare key to electionpending education bills. *Adam Clayton Powell, chairman of the House Committee on Edu¬cation and Labor, said he has received “very little mail" on educationbills.And even Representative Edith Green, sponsor of the only generalcollege aid bill that is acknowledged to have any chance of passingthis session, said she has not received much mail from students. Mrs.Green suggested, that letters of support from students who find it fi¬nancially difficult to get through college would serve as a valuableimpetus to legislators.What obviously remains, then, is for students at this university(and faculty too) to make a point of finding a few moments to writeto their Congressmen and other key legislators and demand actionon education. We are confident that their demonstrated interest willhave a very great effect. And, while it would be disgraceful if thiscountry were to go one more year without squarely facing up to itsresponsibilities in the field of education, it would be even more soif the students of the nation allowed this to happen by their lack ofconcern for their own educations. TO THE EDITOR:I read with interest Mr. HermanFiner’s analysis of the Daley vic¬tory in the mayoral election. (Ma¬roon April 5). While his statementlisting the immediate causes forthe decreased Daley pluralityseems correct, the analysis of thebasic issues leading to the declineis questionable. Mr. Finer is cer¬tainly, as a private citizen, ableto revere Mr. Daley and the Demo¬crats and to despise Mr. Adamow-ski and the Republicans, indeedthis thought is the desirable certi.ficate of the liberal. However, thisemotionalism obscures the basicproblem which Mr. Finer, as apolitical scientist, is trying to anal¬yze: why people voted as they did.1 There is also the problem of thegreat pariah class, the unemployedand the underemployed; the classis comprised chiefly of Negroes.This group creates a great econom¬ic problem since, although it hassmaller than average tax bills, itrequires far more than the basiccity services. To support this classthe city must pad the payroll, al¬locate supernormal funds to con¬trol the increased fire and crimerates, build many new schools toeducate the large numbers ofyoungsters, and spend far morethan normal for unemploymentcompensation and aid for depend¬ent children. This staggering costis compounded since the city nowfeels obliged to provide new hous¬ing for the pariah class, i Mr. Finerconsidered only this one segmentof the total welfare bill and herehis analysis becomes emotional.) fare programs or are they an evergrowing economic cancer as is thedefense program.In light of the voter revolt inChicago and the one Mr. Finersees approaching throughoutAmerica, I would suggest thewhole .set of welfare programsneeds a complete reappraisal. Theprograms must be continued butwe must reappraise them in lightof growing tax payer opposition.Only through calm study can weformulate the best possible wel¬fare programs. We must not en¬gage in useless name calling.CHARLES R. KEENHits dogmatic liberalismThe cost of Chicago’s huge ex¬penditures for relief are partiallyborne by the local taxpayers andthey do not like it. The Chicagoproperty tax rate is over $5.30 per$100 of assessed valuation and inaddition the city directly receivesof the state sales tax. It islittle wonder the local taxpayersoppose the bond issue and urbanrenewal programs which take fromthe property owners and give tothe low-income pariah class. Avote for Adamowski might well beconsidered as a simple, “unquali¬fied prejudice” against the highcost of urban renewal and thewhole set of services the city per¬forms for the low-income class.Such a vote may represent an “un¬qualified prejudice” but it is notirrational.The one lotion that’s cool, exciting-brisk as an ocean breeze!The one-and-only Old Spice exhilarates...gives you that great-to-be*alive feeling...refreshes after every shave...adds to your assurance...and wins feminine approval every time.

Mr. Finer believes there is anapproaching national conflict inurban affairs; we would do wellto study Chicago and Illinois asa ready example. The federalgovernment provides many millionsannually for the support of thewelfare programs, the unemploy¬ment compensation program andthe urban renewal program. Thestate of Illinois is nearly bankruptand yet it must increase its wel¬fare budget, most of' which goesto Chicago, to nearly one billiondollars for the next biennium. Em¬ployers must pay part of the costof the unemployment compensa¬tion program. Finally the local citi¬zens must pay their property taxes.For a city and a state who areboth economically sick. The costare staggering; voters revolt.Here we are at the heart of theproblem. Why are we providingthese services for the low-incomeclass? How do these services aidthe class? Are the members ofthe class better able to rise eco¬nomically and socially? Do welfarefunds help tide people over temp¬orary crises or does the welfarecheck become a permanent alter¬native to gainful employment?There is also the related questionof taxes; given the presumedlyunlimited present need for wel¬fare funds, just how much finan¬cial support can and should be ex¬pected from each employer andproperty owner?

While there ismaterial enough for a short storyin the NEW YORKER about theway the screening was held, the“press conference” afterward, andthe multitude of teenage high-school editors in attendance (out¬side of sundry chaperones, we werethe only person over 21 at theshowing), we shall limit this re¬view to the film itself.NHTR is supposedly an accountof the day Gandhi was assassinatedIn a typical movie thshlon we aretold more about the assassin(play by Horst Buchholz) than theassassinee. It is really not worththe space to go into details of thekalidescopic plot. There is hate,fear, ambition, love and passion(“look passionate, Horst baby”).There is little understanding. ThatIndia is colourful has been wellknown since the first traveloguelecturer set foot there with hisbaby brownie and NHTR does notignore this (“get a shot of themcamels, sweetie”), but in spite ofthe cameraman’s efforts the best color photography occurs in SaulBass’ opening titles.There is very little sense in de¬voting space in a review to a badmovie, except to warn the unsus¬pecting public. But NHTR is morethan a bad movie—it is offensive.We thought Hollywood had givenup ‘black-face’ when they madeSARATOGA TRUNK in 1947. Wewas rong, massa! With the excep¬tion of Ghandi and a prostitute,not one of the leading charactersIs Indian. The cast list reads Buch¬holz, Ferrer, Gearon, Baker, Mor-ley and Borisenko. Buchholz hasa colonial accent tainted with abrouge and Robert Morley givesthe only credible performance inthe film. Now we are aware thatthere are certain economic reasonswhy name stars were used andwhy they ran around in a heavyshade of Max Factor pancakemakeup but if Mark Robson hadbeen interested in making a sin¬cere film, a film resting on itsown merits and not the dubiousbox office of Buchholz, this chi¬canery would have been unneces¬sary.The second objection we haveto NHTR is its “retelling of theevents”. This is not an account,it is a slander against Gandhi andthe Indian people. Gandhi appearsMOWSOUTH SIDE STUDEBAKERTHE NEW LARKmaomiBE as an unrealistic fool, a deludedphilosopher seeking his own mar¬tyrdom. True, he does say in thefilm that if he is assassinated itwill be because his teachings havefailed, but only" after we havebeen told repeatedly that many ofhis ideas are out of step with thesituation. Gandhi's character isglossed over with a few clinches(“put him in a sheet and have himspin some jazz, honey”) and hecomes across as a man a lot ofpeople like. It would be a shameto kill the nice old man. A blurbhere and there gives a few quaintuniversal truths (“don’t offend no¬body, lover, we gotta eat”) butthe meaning of Gandhi's beliefsare left on the cutting room floor— if they were ever shot. WithoutGandhi, who then, emerges as thehero — who has our sympathy,,our pity and fear, as the filmend? Why the assassin, of course.In a fine bit of melodramatic up¬staging, Buchholz falls at the deadGandhi’s feet and weeps after theassassination. The poor baby!Word has it that if 20th Centurydoesn’t recoup its losses on CLEO¬PATRA it won’t make it into the21st century.
