One hundred and thirty years of peace have given Sweden an opportunity to become democratic without any interference Mrs. Claes Rende held members of the Sociology club Thursday. She recently arrived in this country from her native Sweden.
Peace Has Given Sweden Democracy
"In that time our educational system and national economy have made great progress," said Mrs Pende, who is an instructor in German at the University.
The co-operative movement is gaining control in Sweden Mrs. Blende said. It has helped keep enterprises down in addition to breaking many of the monopolies in agriculture and industry. All public utilities are socialized and a similar move in medicine is making progress.
There are no regular colleges in Sweden that correspond to American universities she declared. In Sweden the high schools have eight years of work. Only graduates from these schools may enter Swedish universities for more advanced work. High school instructors must have a doctor of philosophy degree to qualify for teaching, and those in the lower grades must have a master's degree.
The new constitution for the Sociology club was presented by Rita Wicklin, president, and will be voted on at the April meeting. Next year's officers will also be elected all that time.

Press Free As Possible Telfel Tells Forum
The press in America is as free as any institution run by human beings can be. Prof. Emil L. Telfel told members of the movie forum Thursday.
"Newsapers are not at the mercy of advertisers, but are the reflection of the editor or owners opinions," he said.
Professor Telfel admitted that some papers are "check-reined" by their owners, "but for every controlled paper there is a free one."
"There isn't any one publisher who has you under his power. You don't have to read his paper."
The real dangers to freedom of press are in monopolies and in forcing the press to take stands on "what's good for the people," he said. "Hitler rose to power by determining what was good for the people," he added.

*Kruge Murdered Mine Victims*
John L. Lewis Charaes
Washington — (UP) — President John L. Lewis of the United Mine Workers (AFL) charged today before a Senate subcommittee that the Centralia, Ill., mine explosion victims were "murdered by the criminal negligence" of secretary of interior J. A. Krug.
He was referring to the national mine safety code drafted under terms of the contract negotiated by Lewis and Krug after the government seized the mines last March 22.
Senate May Revise Tax Bill
"Mr. Krug failed to enforce the law and the safety code which he negotiated with this witness," Mr. Lewis said.
Washington—(UP)—The house has voted to reduce the income taxes of most Americans by 20 to 30 percent. The bill which faces rougher going in the senate probably will be revised there. President Truman is on record as opposing any tax reduction this year.
U.S. Asks Police For Balkans
Lake Success, N. Y. —(UP)—The United States today called on the United Nations to establish permanent machinery to police the strifetorn Balkans and revealed that the new "Truman doctrine" may be extended to other countries in addition to Greece and Turkey.
The American declaration was made in response to widespread charges that President Truman had by-passed UN machinery in calling upon Congress for a unilateral $400,-000,000 American aid program for Greece and Turkey.
Seek Injunction To Avert National Telephone Strike
Meanwhile the labor department pressed efforts to bring the union and the telephone companies to terms to head off a nationwide telephone strike scheduled April 7. Federal conciliators will call union-management negotiating conferences in 30 cities.
Washington — (UP) — Chairman Fred A. Hartley, Jr., of the house labor committee said today he would seek swift action on a bill which would empower the government to prevent the walkout of National Federation of Telephone workers by injunction.
The measure would amend the Norris-Laguardia act which forbids the use of injunction in private labor disputes. It would remain in effect until an overall strike-control law is enacted.
Before tonight's deadline for consideration of bills in the house of origin, the senate and house of representatives will have disposed of well over a hundred measures.
Topcka—(UP)—The Kansas legislature today began a hectic day of calendar cleaning with house passage of 14 bills and a resolution.
Legislature Cleans Calendar
Food Crisis Brings Violence
Dusseldorf—(UP)—Nearly 100.00 hungry germans massed at the Hofgarten today in a demonstration marked by flurries of violence against the Ruhr's worst food crisis since the war. British officials charged that sabotage of the food distribution system had brought on the crisis.
