Bricker Makes Effort to Rally Support Today
Mr. Bricker, the central figure in the Senate's "great debate" over treaty powers, would not predict how many votes he may be able to muster.
Washington—(U,P)—Sen. John W. Bricker (R-Ohio) takes the Senate floor today in a last-ditch effort to rally crumbles support for his own substitute amendment to limit the President's treaty-making powers.
Friday, Feb. 19, 1954
If the Senate rejects his compromise proposal, Mr. Bricker and most of his backers are expected to line up behind another substitute proposed by Sen. Walter F. George (D.-Ga.).
Republican leaders meanwhile abandoned hope for a final vote on the Bricker amendment issue this week as the Senate resumed the debate after sidetracking it for a day.
Senate Republican leader William F. Knowland (R.-Cal.) said no further votes are expected on any of the various proposals before next Tuesday. Monday will be a semi-holiday with the session devoted to a reading of George Washington's farewell address.
Most observers felt Mr. George's substitute, which has heavy Democratic backing, is the only proposal with any chance of obtaining the two-thirds vote required for a constitutional amendment.
But even that would require fairly heavy support from backers of Bricker's substitute and also from administration Republicans favoring still another substitute sponsored by GOP leaders which the Senate has tentatively adopted.
New Sour Owl Sales To Begin Monday
Bricker's substitute would add a new provision to the three-section administration proposal providing that no treaties or international agreements could become internal law without legislation by Congress unless specifically exempted by two-thirds vote of the Senate.
The spring issue of the Sour Owl magazine will go on sale this Monday, Tom Stewart, editor, said today.
The Sour Owl is published four times a year by the KU chapter of Sigma Delta Chi, professional journalism fraternity. The issue will be the third this year. Another is forthcoming in May.

Sales will be handled at the information booth and outside the Hawk's Nest in the Student Union.

THE DEAN'S A DUDE—Rigged up in western duds, Donald K. Alderson heads for Tulsa to pick up Leon McCauliffe for the Bootheel Drag. The dean will be sheriff at the dance next Friday night.
ATO Members Will Tell You, 'Classifieds Bring Results'
The ad read: "Notice, Alpha Tau Omega Fraternity has lost its charter. An auction of all house furnishings starts at 8 a.m. Friday morning. Everything must go! Good buys at low prices! 1537 Tenn Phone 655."
Alpha Tau Omega, social fraternity, was almost forced to sell all its house furnishings because of a small six-line classified advertisement in the Lawrence Journal-World last night.
As soon as the paper was out, the phone began ringing. Potential buyers wanted to know the price of rugs, furniture, and curtains. One even asked the possibilities of repaneling the walls.
At 8 a.m. today, a taxi arrived with an elderly couple. They had come for the auction.
The cause for the confusion was finally explained—the pledges. During their walk-out, they had placed the ad, hoping to frustrate the actives.
Keys Elected Head Of Sigma Delta Chi
Clarke Keys, journalism senior, was elected president of Sigma Delta Chi, professional journalism fraternity, yesterday. He succeeds Jerry Knudson.
Other officers elected were Ken Bronson, journalism junior, vice president; Chuck Morelock, secretary, and Sam Teaford, treasurer, both journalism seniors.
McKeon Discusses Human Relations
By AMY DE YONG
"We must learn the values and meanings which other people believe in," said Dr. Richard P. McKeon, service professor of Greek and philosophy at Chicago U., last night in the first Ernest H. Lindley memorial lecture.
"Human Rights and International Relations" was a topic for which Dr. McKeon was well qualified. As United States delegate to UNESCO conferences, the speaker shared in the human rights program of that group. He traced the history of human rights and showed the problems faced in a world wide attempt to agree on these freedoms.
Dr. McKeon was introduced by Chancellor Franklin D. Murphy Chancellor Murphy also spoke of Mr. Lindley, chancellor of the University from 1920 to 1939, as "a competent administrator, whose immortality is established in many ways."
"A series of differences prevent the toleration of these differences" Dr. McKeon said. Varied beliefs occur basically in four fields, which he listed as ideological, political, cultural-social, and economic.
The speaker emphasized the fact that we must make a distinction between individual reasons for considering certain rights important and the possibility of agreeing to observe these rights without agreeing on the reasons for so doing.
"The importance of individual conviction is as a spring of individual action." Dr. McKeon said. "It is improbable that mankind will ever come into agreement on a single philosophy."
Concerning political disagreements, Dr. McKeon said that political institutions and practices are so highly different that the only solution for agreement would be to "state the minimum to constitute a democratic government." Because cultural and social differences are also very apparent, he said, "no statement of the common except the specific is possible."
Explainting this comment, he said that all people were convinced that a universal language and religion were advisable; but for the specific, they held to their own beliefs. In the economic realm, Dr. McKeon cited the interdependence of nations as basis for agreement.
Different theories of the relation of justice to law were discussed, from the belief that the two are "mutually exclusive" to a consideration of these terms as synonymous. Dr. McKeon traced the development from basic provisions of "the way men should act" to present freedom of conscience and worship, civil, and political rights.
"The record of the 19th century was an extension of rights into other domains," the speaker said. In addition to human rights, the UNESCO studied democracy, the nature of freedom, and the basis of the extension of international law. The conclusion of this study, quoted Dr. McKeon, that everyone is entitled to "an order in which the rights and freedoms set forth can be recognized."
