We Want Peace For America
Since November 11, 1918, twenty senior classes have graduated from the colleges and universities of America. The present college group is composed of War Babies and those born in the immediate Post-War years. We are the prospective cannon fodder, unless America keeps a level head and an invulnerable neutrality.
Today Congress convenes to propose in an orderly and logical fashion some solution for the problem of a neutral nation in war times. Last summer when Congress was drawing to a weary conclusion, the issue of neutrality became involved with party issues, and the conflict of individual factions obscured vital importance of decisive action. Now that the long-feared second European war of the 20th century has begun, America must define her position.
Admittedly, we-the-people in colleges and shops and offices are the "little people" comparable to our European contemporaries who are now dying on an unglorious battlefield. We are comparable but unlike them because we are the public, and consequently the formulators of public opinion which is the barometer in a democracy.
We must assiduously avoid adopting a fatalistic attitude concerning our eventual involvement in the struggle. We must fight for peace in the face of propaganda, sympathy for the Allied cause, and the social inertia that may start the drift toward American participation in Europe's war.
Campus Traffic Problems
University students are citizens of a locality known as the Hill. They spend a great deal of their time walking and riding about the campus and consequently a traffic problem is automatically evolved which can only be solved by student cooperation.
Every year there are more automobiles to be parked on the Hill. Parking permits are necessary to avoid congestion; these permits must be obtained from Dean Werner's office by tonight.
Car owners and pedestrians are urged to observe the stop signs, and cooperate' to maintain our record of nine years without a serious traffic accident on the Hill. George Murphy, Campus-Cop, represents the law, and it is up to us to keep ourselves and others alive.
Grass on the library lawn is as scarce as enthusiastic early risers on the first day of school, but there are rumors of a proposed crop of blue grass so don't let that smoothly rolled surface frighten you.
Gullibility
Betravs 'Reds'
Stalin sold his American Communist support down the river when he joined daisy chains with Hitler. For years Browder breathed fire at the mere mention of the unspeakable Nazis, he coined the phrase the "Fascist brigands of the Rome-Berlin-Tokyo axis." What do the storm of events in the past few days make of the Communist spokesman?
For child-like faith and unadulterated gullibility the misguided Communists of the United States would be hard to beat. Moscow has used the comrade and his followers, bewitching them with a beautiful camouflage of idealistic plans concealing the U.S.S.R.'s underground diplomacy.
Perhaps the duped Communists will rationalize a bit, and after a brief respite from the political picture return to a loyalty for the United States instead of for a dream country which suddenly assumed stern reality when the Russians marched on Poland.
Browder must feel rather futile without a substantial soap-box.
