Where
Have You Been?
The Russell Kelly Fund boxes, which were distributed at various points on the campus last week, have been opened and show some lack of student interest in the cause which the students themselves initiated.
The Kausan worked as an agent in the campaign for money which might conceivably help in the capture of the Kelly murderer. The real impulse came from students who, so they said, wanted to make contributions.
Those who so boldly cried out against vicious attack on one of their own still have a chance to put their words to the test.
It's up to you
The boxes are still up.
Even
T. B. Was Taboo
One giant is nearly conquered.
The National Tuberculosis Association is already issuing literature and advertisements starting this year's campaign to sell Christmas seals to aid in the fight against tuberculosis.
Thirty years ago when the first Christmas seals were sold, tuberculosis was a dreaded disease. It had not been long since it was not mentioned in polite company, and a person having it was pitied, feared, and given up to the dead.
Today tuberculosis is recognized as a disease that any one may have. More important, it is also recognized that the majority of the cases are curable.
Today syphilis is a dreaded disease. Persons who have it are pitted, feared, and given up to the lost stratum of society. Yet cures are already known for this disease. Only foolish social inhibitions hold up a conquest that could be as quick, sure, and triumphant as that of tuberculosis.
When these inhibitions are replaced with social enlightenment, another giant will lie prostrate.
So Florida has another "unsolved murder." In 1935 Joseph Shoemaker was flogged to death when, because of his activities against Tampa's two dominant political factions, he was warned to leave town by the Ku Klux Klan and refused to do so.
Florida Needs a Clean Up
Because the state had not proved "the actual or constructive presence" of any of the men (six former Tampa policemen) at the scene of the crime the judge ordered an acquittal. Almost two-thirds of the state's case had been ruled inadmissible by the court. After this decision, trials to follow other indictments against men accused of kidnapping and flogging Dr. Sam Rogers and Eugene Poulot, who were taken with Shoemaker in 1935 will amount to nothing more than routine, farcical substitutions for justice.
The whole affair represents the dregs of a Ku Klux Klan-political mess in Florida. Reforms and investigations are in order...on the double-quick.
World's Fair.
Not Amusement Park
The World's Fair has gone "high hat." New York has informed the country that she is not going to have any amusement section for her fair in 1939 similar to those at previous world's fairs in America. Gone will be the "barkers" on the "Pikes" and "Midways" who characterized Chicago's fair.
Mr. Whalen, director of the Fair, has said that the traditional recipes for entertainment in amusement parks will be tossed overboard. The old ideas of creating a sense of excitement and ballyhoo by the use of ghoulish lights and raucous shouting and by steering people down dead-end avenues flanked by amusement palaces will all be gone.
New York and her World's Fair director, Grover Whalen, are to be congratulated on lifting the Fair out of a cheap, bawdy, carnivalistic atmosphere and placing it on a truly fine entertainment basis with a constructive purpose and enlightenment.
As Luck or Politics Would Have It
The anti-bynching bill may put in an appearance at the special session of congress because the Senate, in August, made a formal agreement to consider it "after a vote on farm legislation at the next session."
The wage-hour bill and the farm bills would be acted upon first, when the anti-lynching matter might then jam the well-oiled Roosevelt machine with a prolonged battle. The other three points on the five-point special session program, (governmental reorganization,
regional programs similar to the TVA, and a working-over of the anti-trust laws) can only receive attention after a majority vote to postpone work on the anti-lynching bill.
A strong bloc has been opposing the passage of this measure, so that although it has passed the house, it has been filibustered in the senate and never really formally debated.
Lynching continues to leave its black mark on American law and order in the South, and unless the federal government intervenes will meet no serious local restrictions. By some quirk of fate the anti-lynching bill's position in the New Deal "must" legislation may be just the needed impetus to make it law.
Campus Opinion
The A.S.U. Speaks Un
In the past weeks the name of the American Student Union has again been used in connection with some news about students who have come to misunderstand body and general public happenings. It is important that misunderstanding that the A.S.U. makes the statement "Americans are a multicultural community."
Freedom: it defends students and teachers' rights
to learn. It inspires students to learn. It
inspires it; it resists the Heart-inspired march toward
revolution.
Peace: It opposes American war preparations. It speaks abolition of the R.O.T.C; it supports the Oxford Treaty.
Security: It favors extension of Federal student aid; it seeks adequate social security legislation.
Equality: It campaigned for universal educational opportunity; it condemns Negro discrimination and
The American Student Union is independent of any party's party income, incomes or ranks anyone would wish to join on one side. It is sinister in the belief that no one who is interested in the promotion of democratic ideals can join.
