TUESDAY, APRIL 16, 1935 THE SITUATION AT MICHIGAN Said Michigan students a few days ago through the student paper, "Today's convocation in Hill Auditorium presents to Michigan students one opportunity to do something about war. It is a chance to register mass sentiment. It is a time to devote intelligent consideration to some of the complex factors that generate war. "If Michigan students are alert to the awfulness of war . . . it will be necessary to turn them away from the Auditorium for lack of room." Said President Grant Ruthen Sunday, "There will be no more radical activities on the campus." To this official statement of purpose to stamp out radicalism at Michigan, he added that the whole peace demonstration of last Friday was instigated by the pervasive activities of a few professional agitators. The officials have not yet hastened to add that they, as well as their students, abominate war. Michigan authorities also gave notice that reprimand would fall on students "who are known to have interfered with the proper conduct of university affairs." IF WE ARM TO THE TEETH— The obvious inconsistencies of so-called preparedness are being brought home to us more forcibly every day. The nations of the world are again engaged in the insane race for first position in armaments. Navies "second to none" and air fleets "without an equal" are the talk of the day among government officials of all nations. Where is all this leading us? Are we getting peace insurance in our attempts to overweave our neighbors by military power? Perhaps we foolishly believe that by preparedness we are arriving at the munition of world brotherhood. Maybe we believe that we can scare weaker nations from entertaining imperialistic designs, by a huge display of tanks, cruisers, and bombing squadrons. If we do believe this, we had best pause and awaken to the folly of our ways. Germany has announced a comprehensive rearmament policy in direct violation of the Versailles treaty. And yet we cannot blame Nazi Germany, bordered on all sides by hostile nations armed to the teeth. If we must have our super airfleets and speed tanks, Hitler must have his armies and airships. If he feels the necessity of any army on a par with the other "guarantors of European peace" those guarantors of peace must place the blame at their own door. You cannot expect a nation to sit idly by and watch its neighbors arm for another great imperialistic war, and not expect that nation to commence rearming. Before we conclude that "preparedness second to none" is a sure means of attaining peace, we must count the stupendous financial burden of such a course. Still more essential in the work for peace is that biting little question, "Why then do we prepare for war when all official opinion says we want peace?" To answer that is to know the malady.

Articles over 200 words in length are subject to cutting by the editor. Conclusion CAMPUS OPINION AU SIGMA: Editor Daily Kansan: Some are perhaps still arguing over the effect of such a strike. But why worry about that? Everyone no doubt realized the futility of such a war preventive method. It did show that the students were in earnest in condemning war and that they favored any rational method for its abolition. Much ano was enuncied by our recent scheduled prayer stilos, which contrary to the opinions of some of our campus did actually take place peacefully. This simple, harmless demonstration against war caused dissention in many ranks. It even went so far as to cause the resignation of the publisher of our paper. Persons should be commended for standing for their beliefs. However, now that the strike has occurred one more time, it is likely that the fury that it caused was necessary. Was it not what Shakespeare would call "Much Ado About Nothing?" It is interesting to note in this connection the inaccuracy with which this in- 10c UNION FOUNTAIN Sub-basement Memorial Union HUGH HERBERT WILLIAM GARGAN --- GRANADA Make Your Dates Now for JOAN BLONDELL · GLENDA FARRELL ALL SHOWS 25c From Nine to Five -- -- It's Big Business!
