TUESDAY, OCTOBER 6, 1931 DWIGHT W. MORROW Not only the United States, but the world as a whole, mourns the death of one of the greatest national and international leaders in the history of this nation. United States senator from New Jersey and former ambassador to Mexico, he was respected for the objective manner in which he regarded international relations, and for this reason the loss of his advice and counsel will be deeply felt. It was the power to be an international adjustments that made him so valuable to the United States. It was President Hower who saved Germany in the eleventh hour by his moratorium, but it was Senator Morrow who advocated this movement three months before it was given over to the world for consideration. At the naval conference in England, when the nations were divided through selfish interests, Senator Morrow reconciled the different powers and was able to bring about an agreement between them. The Mexican-American affairs were muddles before Senator Morrow was appointed counselor to the country south of us. He plunged into the work with tremendous energy, and within a year had settled problems which had long threatened serious difficulties between the two countries. He gained wide recognition for his work there and was respected by the Mexican authorities, who regarded his advice without suspicion, something that Mexico has been unable to do at times in the past. After his administration for the senatorship, he reargested his position in Mexico to devote himself to the campaign. The people of his state responded to his political achievements by electing him to office with a large majority. And during the time he has served in office, he has worked not solely for the interest of his state, but for the interest of the entire nation, because he saw that the different states could not be strengthened unless the nation as *r* who worked in unity. The work of Senator Morrow will continue after his death. His political enen, a regarded his work so highly that they, too, worked toward his goal; a goal that did not merely seek to cure the immediate needs, but to achieve ultimate results. LET'S GET ORGANIZED In times of business depression such as confronts the nation and the world now, public thought naturally turns to economic theory. People everywhere are trying to plot a route to prosperity. There has been considerable dissention among the prominent, economists of the country as to the best and safest route to take. There are those who favor inflation others who propose deflation, and there is a great deal of variation within the ranks of each group. The country has board plenty of theories, but it seems unable to concentrate on any one of them long enough to put a workable plan into operation. It is high time foolish political contention and scatter-brained thinking were abandoned and efforts were concentrated on some sound economic plan for a return to prosperity. A recent speaker on the campus pointed out that it was the duty of the country press of the mid-western states to lead the agricultural interests to a solution of their problem of low market prices for farm products. This is the greatest service the newspapers could render the farmers of this section. But why not extend the idea a little further? Would it not be just as wise for the people of the whole country, through the national farm and business organizations, to get together and revamp our economic structure long the lines suggested by some of our more practical economies? The newspapers of the nation could make a tremendous contribution by helping to organize and concentrate public action. But first, the people themselves must forget their political jealousies and acquire more unity of thought and principle. POVERTY STRICKEN "A person who does not read more than is required of him is impoverishing himself." So Chanese Lord Linden said that the group of students at Westminster hall. Are students impoverishing themselves when they rush to the library, read the assigned pages, close the book and rush out again? On course there two sides to the argument. Life is too hurried. One can't stay at the library or check out books, for one must hurry home to talk to the gang. One must go downtown, or one has a date. One must see this show and attend that dinner. And one just simply must sleep whenever one isn't able to sleep. We don't have time to pick up a good book twenty minutes before dinner, and read. What man is of interest who cannot talk extensively and intelligently about one subject of importance? Even they of frivolous interests admire and recognize one who thoroughly understands even one subject. Do we really have time to impoverish ourselves? FREE SPEECH The board of education of Long Beach, Challis, in denying Ex-Senator J Thomas Hellin the use of the high school auditorium because he refused to sign an agreement not to touch on religious matters, brought nation-wide woe and criticism. Regardless of the merit of his argument, this gesture should be condensed, and regardless of the group that made it, for a board of education to deny free speech is reverting back to medieval tactics. At least one will benefit by the short-sightness of the board, and that will be Ex-Senator Heffin. He will deliver the speech today or tomorrow in another building, and because of the publicity given the unfortunate incident Saturday night, the ex-senator may be sure of a packed house. LET'S TALK ABOUT SOMETHING NEW We realize that this everlasting fuss about the depression may become monotonous, but there are angles of it which only some of us ever see, angles which change the entire outlook of many crusty individuals. Just as the pessimist sees only the hole in the doughnut, so our thousands of calamity howlers see only the worst of the depression. For instance take a slant at the World Series. Hard times, isn't it, when people will turn out forty thousand strong just to see two hours of baseball? They pay a price, too, to witness those few minutes of play, and many stand in line for days to obtain bleacher seats. Back in New York Earl Carroll has just presented a magnificent and surprising musical extravaganza in a colossal new theater. (Pardon the use of celluloid superlatives.) People are falling over themselves to pay three dollars a seat for the performances, and that's cheap for a musical comedy. The United States has just finished the Akron, the new super-fighting ship of the skies. Does that look like depression? The United States got the money from taxes, and the taxes came from the people, and they had to get the money from somewhere. Capone is coming to trial, and maybe they'll convict him and send him to prison. That will be wonderful news, depression or not. All this unrelated chatter means one thing: we may be in the threes of a depression, but even then the same old economic processes and laws are oper- OFFICIAL UNIVERSITY BULLETIN Vol. XXIX Tuesday, Oc. 6, 1931 No. 22 rabra una sesión especial de El Ateneo el jueves proxima a las cuatro media.

Let's all try being Pollyanna for a little while, and if we can't do that—let's talk about something new! THE FLASHLIGHT MENACE There will be a Wednesday night varsity at the Union building tomorrow night. NEWMAN JEFFREY, Manager, Student Union. DELORA KELLOGG, President. "But no Jew would buy a Bible except from a reputable person," said Rabbi Leopold Greenwald. "The desecration was in vain." Of course it's a little late to mention it, now that the University has played its last night football game for this season. But we find the student body anything but pleased with the photographer who persisted in taking flashlight pictures of the players at critical moments in the game last Friday night. Several times when the play was directed near one of the sidelines, this photographer blinded the players to get a picture which apparently seemed more important to him than the outcome of the play he was interupting. The same thing happened in last year's game with Haskell. On one occasion a photographer flashed a light so close to a player's face that it obviously caused him to miss a forward pass, and the referees allowed the play to go. Columbus, Ohio. A strange theft occurred in the syngagogue B杰ebach here. A window was found broken, a key was gone, or the Bible, was gone from the altar. As well as the public likes football pictures, they are hardy worth the interference they cause to players. We sincerely hope flashlight photography will be eliminated at night games next season.

Rome, Oct. 6—(UIP) -Aurea, the ancient highway which 2,000 years ago joined imperial Rome with Gaul. It is ready for use early next year from Rome to the French frontier, according to a report by I.C.P.I., President of the State Road Board.
