GLASS MAKING - Authority Fully of Interesting Methods of Manu- facture. BLESSING TO MANKIND Glass, its manufacture and _ its uses, was the subject of a very interesting illustrated lecture by Dr. Silverman, of the University of Pittsburgh, on Thursday evening, January’ 12. The lecture, under the. auspices of the Sci- ence Club, was enthusiastically re- ceived by a large audience. First American Industry Dr. Silverman: began’ by telling us that glass-making. was one of the old- est industries in the world. It was. also the~first industrial enterprise in the American colonies as there was a factory at Jamestown. He went on to tell us how glass ac-, tually is made. One hundred pounds of sand to every 15 peunds’ of lime and 35 of soda ash seem strange ele- ments to compose a transparent sub- stance like glass, but such are the facts. One can but wonder. As clay is the only material capable of with- standing the terrific heat necessary for the making of glass, the materials are baked in fine clay pots. ‘The heat of 2500 degrees Fahrenheit to which’ they are subjected melts the three el- ements intg, a liquid-like molasses. This embryo glags is then poured out onto a flat steel table, where it is rolled like dough. This flat sheet! is stamped down between two revolving steel plates, and after that polished with rougé or iron rust. The product resulting from this process is. plate giass. Bullet-proof glass is no more nor less, we learned, than three layers of ordinary plate glass stuck together with a collodion-like binder which has a certain resiliency that-keeps~ alt} }- three layers from breaking.

STUDENT Attended Conference as Dele- gate of Bryn Mawr, Elected . 4 Committee Meitifier= — REPORT? OF - OF “CONGRESS, (Specially contributed by. 2G. ornelia Rose, '28:)* \ The third Congress of the National Student. Fedetation-of America was held at Lincoln, Nebraska, from December 15 to December™?7, Court where a. group of colleges organ- ized on a permanent basis. Last year, the, Congress at Ann Arbor adopted. a constitution which has since been rati- fied by the member colleges. This sum- mer, the C. I. \E. (Confederation Inter- nationale des’ Etudiantes ) ‘admitted , is to membership, . Fhus the N, S.- FTX. has taken the -first’steps on’ the path it pro- poses-to follow as it states in the preamble to its Constitution: “We would. achieve a—spirit--0f-co-operation” among. the” sti dents .of the: United States of America ing students’ interests; we would develop am intelligent, student opinion on questions of national and ‘international importance ; we would foster understanding among the students of the world in the further- ance of an enduring peace. for these ends the Federation acts in- dependently: 6f any party or religious’ creed,” pomnnnene Organized in Districts. Federation ig organized along regional lines, and into standing com-! mittees. Thus every member of ‘the Executive ‘Board represents one of the six sections into which the country - is divided. / The committees are on Student Government, Honor system, Curriculum, Fraternities and Foyeign Relations -or Travel. Each of ‘these had a discussion group at the Congress where the sub- ject was talked over and plans made for the work of the coming Year. . The Thq Travel Committee, for instance, invitefl the C. I. E. to send over and en- tertained ten foreign students this sum- mer as well as sending a delegation to be cated for by the C. I. FE. E. Brown, ’28, Bryn. Mawr’s delegate to the Ann Arbor Congress, was responsible for much of this... She has reported on_ it in Chapel. The..most. important accomplishments of the Congress were the plans for next year and those for the establishment of the Federation on a firm: financial basis. The budget was carefully worked out and discussed in full session. It would have been a shock to those who contend that students are always so impractical to ob- serve the interest taken in this subject and the clear thinking that was given to it. It was decided that if there are suffi- cient funds on hand in-June the Execu- tive Committee is to establish a Central Office. The Bryn Mawr Summer School has offered a foom in its, building in New York, for a nominal rent. It is absolutely necessary for the successful continuance of the Federation that it a few permanent workers. The student personnel shifts too continuously. Student. Heresy Discussed. Beside the discussion groups and Con- gress sessions there were speakers on topics of wide interest. Dr. F. N. Fling of the University of Nebraska spoke on the “Student in World Affairs,” declar- ing that the “students’ first task is to educate themselves with’ reference to! world affairs and then to be enthusiastic énough to induce others to become so educated.” Miss May Hermes of the University of London told of the work and organization of the C. I. E. and Dr. A. J. Todd of Northwestern spoke on the “Student .Heretic.” In a most interesting speech he explained that tHe W. al phat: 4s this?-asks}" tH everybody:- Phre N>-S.F.-A: is an out-{ growth’of the meeting at Princeton.two| In working |. have a permanent mailing address and}, When - To Head School Miss Ellen Faulkner, who has been manager of Halls for. several years; and this year assistant to the, Dean, become Head of Milton Academy, ‘a co-educational school in Massachu- setts.

Co-operate With God Moderns Have Ceased to See Im- portance of Prayer in Religion. eure “Prayer, more than conduct, is re- ligion at work,” said Dr. Samuel Shoe- maker in chapel on Sunday, January | 8. . “The Christianity of the present.day- and age is too often medasyred by deeds and generosity. There is no longer the Godward attitude of mind which surrenders itself to . constant prayer. We consider. such things”as the sentimental pasttimes of perverted people. Many of us feel that our pray- ers are received indifferently, and when God doesn’t answer as we would have Him, we immediately turn into pro- found atheists. Intellectual Faith Still Possible. “The result of this attitude is blank agnosticism. The truth of the matter is that we have failed to realize one of the most essential phases of relig- ion:. that ‘God had a purpose in mind when He created the universe. We can still.be as modern as we would and hold on to our intellectual faith in prayer, through.. which God. makes it possible for us to seek out the: sig- nificance of our lives. ~“The difficulty Comes when we try to bring prayer down from the region of the abstract to concrete realism. We hesitate to have prayer for the basis of’ our prudence, éven though it hhas:proved its worth by long experi- ence.

May Queen has finally been ‘elected by a large majority. Margaret Nuckols, of the Class of ’31, was an- nounced as the choice of the college by the overwhelming majority of 211 to 77 votes. Many Honors at School. Miss Nuckols lives in Albapy and at- tended the St. Agnes School there, Dur- ing her senior year she was Class Presi- dent, Vice President of Student Gov- ernment, Treasurer of. the Athletic As- sgciation, Editor-in-Chief of the school paper, and a-member of basketball and soccer teams. Besides all of this, Miss Nuckols was voted by her class as the prettiest, she who had done most for the school, the most likely to succeed in love and in life, the hardest worker and the most original member of ’26. After graduating ‘from-St. Agnes, Miss Nuckols returned. for one year of post-graduate work before coming on to Bryn Mawr and ftture honors. The May Queen elect entered college * on..a~New~ York-Regional-Scholarship: In the few months that she has been here she has become a member of the choir, the Glee Club, and the Water Polo team.

But qv about teaching a young dog new tricks? At—seems_ that either they are not ‘being: “taught or. élse}: : they cannot learn. A few years ago we all believed that the war had taught something to the world at}: large, that Populaces had, at last, begun to learn. We can no longer believe this miracle. Mass educa- tion seems to be as -illusive and ephemeral an ideal as ever it was in the petty pre-war days. Customs, thousands of years old, make a dis- couragingly ineffaceable track in our impressionable-minds,and_the. Glory of War is an ageold tradition. Most of those who took part in thé re- in- grained - superstition. They were jolted out of the almost indestruct- ‘ible rut. War books, plays and films were brought out by the disillusioned in an effort to popularize their new belief that the Military Ideal was bunk. In the beginning i propa- ganda got across. “Outlaw War” became both a- popular’. and .a fashionable slogan. This week we saw the “Big Parade” again, after two years. . In just twq years the/ spirit of the audiences has changed. The propa- «ganda of the film didn’t get across at ‘all this time, rather the audience took it as pro-war propaganda. ‘The sordid incidents were apparently not noticed, the obviously tragic ones were sobbed at, but the point of presentation was completely missed. The spread of patriotism, the mob movement ‘to — enlist at the beginning were applauded, and from then on ‘the Glory. of War dazzled the -audience more ‘and more. ‘The American forces move up to the front (applause) ; Americans killed (sobs mixed with admiration of glorious, sacrifice) ; Germans killed (hectic cheering). And so it went: every scene that was meant to shatter the’Military Bubble swelled it further “instead: there were cheers. when in the shell-hole the American. soldier.’ punched _ the|’ face of the wounded German, and near grdans ‘when he gave him a cigarette.

A read- ing period is being held for the two and a. half’ weeks preceding midyears; During this time books selected by the professors and sup- plied by the library are being read, and a knowledge of their contents is to be required-for-the examinations: There are of course’ no lectures. Miss Ada Comstock, . head — of Radcliffe, said in..an article appear- ing in the college daily that if. this experiment succeeds “it ‘will be a step in the direction of making edu- cation more of an independent, per- sonal adventure and less of a sub- mission ‘to a prescribed routine.” This is a step we should: all be glad to take, for we often find ourselves impeded. by apparently unreasonable rules, harassed by petty require- ments.

Dr. quainted with Thomas Chew, who. was personally. ac- Hardy, dis- cussed’ the principal: aspects of his work; his regionalism, wich was as ‘intense as that of. Wordsworth, his interest in poetry, and Ws philosophy. It was partly the pessimism of his-out- look on life which prevented him at Prize, sae partly the 4 Te that * he never had the continental appeal that, for instance, Byron had. He was Eng- -lish of the English—his life and works center’ around’ Dorchester. The Imminent WwW ill Shown in Dynasts. The Dynasts, ‘Hardy’ s masterpiece, the greatest work of literature of the gen- eration, was written to give voice to the ‘Tentative Metaphysics” which is implicit inwhis novels. He wanted. to show the Imminent: Will active in the fates not only of a few human crea- tures, but. of all humanity; this life force, unintelligent, blind unreasoning, “like a~Knitter drowsed whose ‘fingers move in skilled unmindfulness.” Hardy was oppressed by the insignificant of man against the background of the universe. In his sonnet On. the Lunar Eclipse: he expressed hisidea of a cos- mic scale by which men’s actions are measured ; reduced to a mere curve passing over the face of the moon. His philosophy was not, however, entirely pessimistic; he was a “practi-| cal meliorist.” In his poem to the Unknown God, ‘he expresses -his awareness that life is slowly becoming better. In spite of war, on which he looked from a universal point of view, seeing the tragedy from both sides, he felt that» there: was hope in human relationships, in love and_ friendship. His poem, Fo’ Meet or Otherwise, most beautifully expresses this: “By briefest meeting something stire is won; It will have been: Nor God nor Demon can unde the done, Unsight the seen, Make muted music be as unbegun, Through things terrene, Groan in their bondage till oblivion supervene.” - = Rare Proof Lithographs at Wyndham Exhibition The new exhibition at Wyndham will last only for a short time and is certainly worth .a visit this week bef6re it leaves. Besides the charming colored reproduc- tions of paintings by Renoir, Matisse, and André Derain, which are for sale at mod- erate prices,’ there are fourteen proot lithographs -by Gavarni. These are ex- tremely rare, since such proofs usually do not survive. Knoedler & Co., in a let- ter to Mrs. Hinchman, writes: ‘These proofs have a quality and a bloon, miss- ing from the later and issued impressions. It is, perhaps, due to the fact that so few persons have ever seen lithographs, in the “first state’ that lithography ‘as an art_has'in great measure béen, and still is, a ‘Cinderella’ of the graphic arts. If people only would realize what.a de- lightful-.process..it-is,. the: onty. absolute autographic process which produces per- fectly the artist’s original design, there would be a corresponding interest in such work as.this.” _ ‘ V.

New Liberal Club Has Been Started This Year Although for some years all at- tempts to start a liberal club here have failed, there has at last been started one. which the founders expect will continue, and which has been run very successfully for one ‘semester. The organization is intended to be as democratic as possible, and has so far avoided all unnecessary rules and re- strictions. There is no regular Presi- dent. The Chair at each meeting is taken by a member elected at the pre- vious meeting. Becausé of May Day no regular lectures which ‘are open fo the entire college will be given this year, although speakers may come down for informal and private talks. Attendance Must Be Regular. Members are allowed not more than two cuts.unless they have a reasonable _excuse—this last includes. week-ends. ~ Meetings. are held every other week on ~ Sunday night after Chapel. Every one ected to, do some, reading on the "inex which has been assigned. It is intended that the discussion shall be concerned with current problems. So _far the. subjects for discussion have _ been Soviet Russia, Disarmament and “Companionate. Marriages. ‘New Members Invited. The membership is limited, but the original members think they can in- clude more than have so far been ad- mitted. Those who wish to be admit- ted are asked to come to two meetings both. that they.can discover whether the Liberal Club comes up to their ex- pectations and also: that ‘they may prove to themselves-and- the. members present that they can take an intelli: gent part in the discussion and can do ~adéquate work in preparation for it. Those who wish to join the Liberal Club are asked to ‘speak to one of the methbers as soon as possible, The a ‘of wisdom.and happiness is the per- present members are FE.

Goodness Is ‘Harmony : Christ’s Lifé Was Perfect in the « Way Sought By : Socrates. “We are just ‘beginning to realize that all the standards of life are im- plicit within each one of us,” said Dr. Albert Cohoe on Sunday evening, Jan- uary 15. “In other words, just whqn we fin-' ish breaking“all the rules thad'we can find to break, we discover that these very rules are not connected with out- ward things, but are within us and‘an integral.part of our innermost beings. : Each time we set out to solve one of the difficult.problems. of. life, we find that every factor of the problem is in- cluded in living the human life. vtiee Taife-of Harmen, Is Best.>*~ “It is then that we begin to:realize that the good life-is not the life of conformity, but the life of harmony— not harmony in things without, but harmony in things within ourselves. Goodness, in other words, is integrity. “The perfect life. is not» impossible. . Socrates looked about.for the unattain- able for many years. But since a mir- acle had to happen. the perfect lifé be- came a reality and Christ was born, lived and was crucified. . Publicity Doesn’t Count. “We are often inclined to think that the Christians were followers of Christ merely because He was_ spectacular: He arose and sat at «the right hand of God the- Father Almighty. But wheti we. read the letters. of Paul we see a light on. the subject: The rub- bish of. all the ulterior motives is brushed aside’ and we find the actual facts: a good man put to death for his goodness. Then it is that we see that the business of life is the good man and not what the good man gets in publicity. “We talk of Jesus Christ-as an ami- able person Who made us: behave .in our childhoods as our mothers wanted us to behave. We deprive Him of His virility and imagine Him weak and sweetly passive. But the fact that Christ is discovered again and again is proof enough of His virility. “The perfect life is not the life of a weak, polished gentleman. The life fect harmonious life—the life of Jesus Christ.” ° Jobs For Graduates Dean Tells of Openings in the ° Teaching Posi- tions. ree “Every year the Bureau of Recom- mendations sends out a questionnaire to all Seniors,” said Mrs. Manning, speaking in Chapel on Wednesday, January the 1ith. “There is gener- ally little response, probably because few Seniors know the type of job they are interested in. Also the Bureau does no active work in procuring any job besides that of teaching. ° Bryn Mawr Bureau as Clearing House. “The Co-operative Bureau for Teachers in’ New, York, and the Bu- reau of Occupation in New York and Philadelphia are more apt to get you a job, ‘What the Bryn Mawr Bureau can do, however, is to ke» a Clearing House for information about Bryn Mawr graduates. The other bureaus write to us and we can send them the information from your college records and the answers on the blank you have ‘filled out. “ “A good many private schools apply directly to the Bryn Mawr bureau for recommendations of. teachers; these are the schools that are willing to take a girl without special training or ex- ‘perience in teaching; and~- they are very willing to take the college’s word for her ability. art “The idea of Vocational Conferences, 'formal,.or informal, is to give the stu- ‘|telligent supervision. work. she will be interested: in.” Announcement of College Bureau. ‘ Any se at aa ‘or ‘graduate students “nhwedtehd to teach next year should register. immediately with the“Bureau of Recommendations No time should be lost as it takes -at least 4 week to fill out the application blanks and ob- tain the necessary references, and most schools make their appointments for the following year during the months of sua and February. “Last Year's Placements. ae year the Bureau of Recom- mendations placed about seven sen- iors and one graduate student in per- ‘mafient positions besides those who took summer work.

Dt. Fenwick Chosen Appointed Member of Committee for Codification of Inter- - national_Law...-—-—-- Dr. Charles Fenwick, Professor ‘of Economics and Politics, has been chosen as‘a member of the American Advisory Committee on the Codifica- tion of the International Law. This committee was chosen on January in Cambridge, under the auspices of the faculty of. the Harvard Law School. The. aim of this committee is to secure the :co-operation. of Ameri- can, authorities on legal subjects, “in order to place before the first confer- ence for the codificaton,’ of the inter- bs national law, which the League of Nations has called to sit in 1929, a systematic statement of American thought on the subjects as to which codification will be attempted.” These subjects include nationally, territorial waters, and responsibility of states for damage done in their territory to the persons or property of foreigners. The organization of this commit- tee is seen as anothef step in the di- rection of American co-operation with the League of Nations. The sub- jects which are to be studied are of vital importance to any future devel- opment of .amicable international re- lations, and. it will be interesting to follow: American.expert. opinion on. the matter. “Dr. Fenwick is a gradyate of, Loy- ola College and recei his Ph. D. degree from John Hopkins University. From 1911-1914 he worked in: the .di- vision of International Law, Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, and was a lecturer. on International Law for Washington College of Law for several years following. “In 1913 he edited a publication on the Neutrality. Laws of the United States, published by the Carnegie En- dowment for International Peace; in 1920, Political System ‘in Translations; in 1924, International Law.

They were photo- graphed, and their pictures -posted in Taylor. The ultimate choice was to have been. made’ from among their number, but, on the eve of the. big decision, just before Christmas vacation, a petition was handed to the committee that the elec- tion be postponed, and the last six candi- dates be photographed and considered. This .petition was signed by filty-five people; the final voting was postponed until after the holidays, and a mass meet- the ‘ing was held on January tenth to discuss the new suggestion. A motion was. passed after a good deal of discussion, that the petition be disregarded; then J. Stetson, ’28, moved that of the six highest candi- dates, the two-with the most votes be considered for the final choice. This4 motion, too, was passed. The result of the meeting was that Gendell and Nuckols were the. final people remain-} ing after the various processes of elimi-, nation. - Miss Nuckols came out as the winner of the last step of the competi- tion, and: the college expressed its ap- proval by electing -her with a large majority vote.

M. train and were met at Broad Street by Mr. The first place visited was the Walnut’ Street Sta- tion at the foot of Walnut on Dock. Hiere all the freight from the. ‘north and New Jersey is received on floats from Camden. In shipping freight out for New Jersey points,-the Pennsylvania has ‘found it more economical ‘and time- -Sav- ing to send shipments of less than’a full car to Camden by motor truck, and then load them into cars for distribution in the State. The process of loading and chécking up on’ bills of lading was ex- plained. -Mr. Flottman said that -when the consignee has freight tracks into his buile:..., aaedear i is run there and he does ‘the unloading. This relieves the railroad of responsibility for the count,. and it is still further relieved when the consignor ha§ loaded and checked up the shipment himself.. This is true also when the receivér sends a-truck to the freight yards and unloads there. . When. the car- rier does the unloading; of course it” ds : _ responsible. The next place visited was the Dock across from the. Walnut, tables. Here an impromptu ovation was the class which marched through lines of apples, oranges, carrots and grinning, cheering men. It must have been rather a stirprising invasion at 7.30 itt the morning. The bus drove along Deck street and its continuation, Delaware avenue into a foreign “country. It ‘seemed most unlike Philadelphia, nothing but docks, It used to be all marsh until the war “made new demands: on the Philadelphia harbor and two doéks were constructed and Oregon avenue built as a_ feeder. Now the B. & O. freight yards are here and the Perishable-Freight Terminal of the Pennsylvania. New offices are going up and it is expected sthat’ the center of the fruit and vegetable trade will move down. The: Dock street buildings are crowded and antiquated. Case of Chickens En: Route. _ On the way down, one of the chicken slaughtering houses'.was passed, several cars of live chickens standing on the tracks. There are caretakers who travel with these cars ‘and feed and water the chickens. They have beds, and stoves on which to cook their meals so that their charges can have constant attention. Since a bonus is paid if the: Chickens lose no weight in thé journey, many illegal prac- tices have grown up among these care- takers. They stuff the chickens. with food and gravel and: salt to make them drink a lot of water. ‘ni New York there is a law requiring’ the inspection of these chickens and they hope to have one in Philadelphia soon. The diseased chickens are theoretically eliminated. Chinese freight, yards, warehouses and.great waste fields. | inspecting the prodiice and auctioning it off.’ The tracks run alongside a big open- | sided ‘shed where they. are unloaded. Fighty cars can be accommodated at once. ‘on slips’ of paper, where the, lots” are numbered.. The: bidding is by number in’ the auction rooms upstairs. On these lists seventy kinds of fruit and vegetables masquerade under such names as: “‘lopes,” “cukes” and “casbas,” for cantalopes,-cu- cumbers and casabas: Egg plants are ‘\“E. ° Plants.” Unfortunately— business is--slack—now and there is no Saturday morning auc- tion. Mr. Flottman described the scene on regular days as a “mad-house.” History of Vegetables. Upstairs. in the auctions room, Mr. Flottman gave a lecture on marketing, tracing the history of vegetables from the first mention of lettuce as a cure for some disease by Caesar, and that of artichokes preserved in vinegar and honey. In the sixteenth century most fruits came from Indo-China, ‘the original home of the orange, or Persia, which prodticel’. especially fine pears.’ Various Mediterranean companies acted as dis- tributing agents. He mentioned condi- tions in Colonial days, and now how the truck farmers are being shoved further and further away from their ‘markets. The food producing industry is also specializing to a great extent. Thus the majority of the freight received in Phila- delphia comes from a distance, California this is only over the, Pennsylvania and does not include all-the othe? railroads serving Philadelphia—with Pennsylvania in fifth place with only 2000. The grape crop in 1925, the last year for which there ate government figures, was 1,900,- 000 tons, of which 92 per cent. was con- tributed by California. Philadelphia’s share, was 4262 car loads of grapes, of leading with nearly 10,000° cars a. year—;- _There are many problems: connected with the shipping of fruit long-distandes for which new solutions are always being. sought. . For instance, pears shipped green them nearly ripe and sealing them in air- tight boxes and shipping them in refrig- erator cars.: They preserve their taste this way but it is extremely expensive. The use of “dry: ice,” a. chemical that many caterers now use for packing ice cream, -is successful but also expensive. In a test made with this two years ago, a carload of fish’ sent to. Kansas City-and| five days on the road,. arrived frozen solid. A scheme is being- worked onto install Frigidaires with power from the wheels. The installation would cost $300 per car but the refrigeration would be only about $15 per carload. Now it is $110-115. The cost of shipping a single car from the Pacific coast with refrigera- tion is often from $8000-$15,000, Basis of Freight Rates. Mr. Flottman explained the Way in which rates are based on the perishability of goods graded into six divisions. Some account of the relative weight and space occupied by the merchandise is also taken. Sometimes. “commodity rates” are given. Then boat.competition is also a factor.’ Some time ago, shippers could send mer- chandise from San Francisco by boat to Philadelphia, then by .rail to, say, some point in Ohio for less than the straight railroad rate from San Francisco to that point: Réanttifns are made on solid car- load shipments. The I. C. C. has stepped on a good many .of the rate-cutting schemes. Special rates used to be given to importers who shipped their goods from New York. This ‘is no ‘longer al lowed. Part of the cost to the who country arises because: the conditions,An New York are so poor. All freight tebe lightered- across the harbor ; There are many: interesting and queer things about this business. For instance, a car may be started out from California with a fictitious destination. Before it especially good somewhere else and he orders it diverted. The railroad charges only $3. 60 for this service. He may find his second’ guess no better than his first and he can’t get the price he ‘wants. A. car may reach Philadelphia or New York after having played six or seven markets. _- Varieties of Produce Freighted,—- The Pennsylvania carried food from forty-four States and eleven foreign countries into Philadelphia last year. Such odd shipments came in as twelve cars of peanuts from China, or eight of horge- radish from Germany.: Lemons. come from Italy, pepper, tomatoes, egg plants from Mexico; onions from Spain and Egypt. Seven cars of annis arrived from Louisiana at one time. . and the market absorbed ‘it all! -One hundred and fifty.cars-are handled ‘a day, not counting the immense amount of prodtice that comes in by-express or motor trucks. The use of trucks has had the effect of stabilizing the market. For instance once last year, three hundred~baskets of mush- rooms came in at once. ia by railroad the market would ‘have slumped. But, as it was, nobody knew at the time how much was coming in and the bu\ersy.were unable to force the market, down. My Flottman talked about the com- isfion method of buying, of buying by e crop, of the, great: associations like the California Fruit Growers’ Association and what-not. After these very full and interesting explamations, the class completed its in- spection of the yards and traveled back to the center of the town.

As a matter of fact, cording to the arfn’that wields it.’ An analytical discussion of. the question makes essential an internafional organ- ization that will decide the definiti6n of the word “aggression.” Thére are two schools of thought-on the subject of disarmament with en- tirely different ideas. The first, that may be.called the Pacifistic School, maintains that armaments, are the cause of-wars. They make two argu-" ments: First; that the manufacture of armaments creates the need of a mar- ket. Second, that the fact of a stand- ing army.and general staff leads to the presumption of a hypothetical adver- for which some, neighbor is chosen; sary exerts a psychological effect like that of the lamp post and the amateur bicycle rider—it leads inevitably to a clash, Power Cannot Be Limited. The solution would be complete dis- ‘but the objection to that is that the poteritial military, power of a nation cannot be limited.. A coun- _ fry with vast economic resources or exténsive credit with which to buy ma- terial ‘can replace ‘its armaments in an instant, while a smaller country can- not. Disarmament: must give the smaller nation the potential power. of ‘the large ones, and for this an inter- ‘ national institution is again necessary. Is War the Cause of Arms? | The second or Realistic School says that war is the cause of armaments. Nations remember and fear wars— therefore they arm themselves. The ‘-only cure for-this”is*to do away with. the causes: of war. These are innumerable and-too long to be listed. But the causes is: the same. By succeeding treaties and agreements, the world: has become. caked in a network of many obligations. But life progresses, and the world outgrows these arrange- ments; a tension arises and a conflict occurs. This may be dealt with in two ‘ways—first by violence, a method that __ has been proved to be wrong; second, ~ methods, * Great Britain , .” side of the law-breaker. - As for disarmament, when- through [| -a world agreement we are once con- . vinéed of the® right, we May: be’ sure reat the truth © ; by international conciliation and jus- tice. ; ae What the League Has Done. The League of Nations, with such problems,~ has, used two the direct and, the indirect. Its) Permanent Advisory~ Council of military representatives from all coun- tries made two efforts, both by the direct method. First it’ examined the problem-and decided that'‘any measure of general disarmament was impossi- ble; then the Temporary Mixed Com- mission tried the system of giving each member a co-efficient number— 4, Francé 6, etc., and multiplying the unit of forces by. that number*for each country, This -was also a failure. . The indirect imethod Was attempted by the Protocol to the Treaty,of Guar- antee, 1924. In case of dispute there “would take place, first voluntary arbi- | tration, then. compulsory arbitration. then an arbitrary judgment by the League. It was necessary to provide security, from ‘attack for’ weaker: na- tions; and then disarmament could be attempted. For all these things an in- ternational organization would be es- sential. Central Power Needed. ~The question’ of. the “Outlawry of War” was never mentioned at Geneva, but has been much discussed in Amer- ica. It also implies a central power; for a nation cannot be declared out- side, the law unless a’ law ‘exists; and such a law must be made by interna-. tional agreement. Then the only kind of war that can be outlawed—is- that between two~-nations, as dueling forbidden two individuals. idea of calling a fight between the polite force, and a murderer. illegal; so, when a country must be punished is by police operation leading to vio- lence, the result is not war in this ‘sense. | - a Mae The police force itself will not be an internationa] army, but will depend on . time and: circunf$tance, and will not { ‘materialize till. then. -ethe.

The student herefic is not he who thinks with the group -which calls itself ‘radical’ but he who is sufficiently radical to dare to think.” 3 Perhaps fhe greatest value of ‘the Con- |. gress-as-such lies in the experience which each delegate derives from” meeting the delegates from other colleges. There were nearly two hundred students rep- resenting colleges all over the country and as far away astHawaii. The suc- cess of the Federation depends primarily upon a stimulation of ‘serious thought ‘among these delegates and the interest which they can arouse .{n their colleges. The more the Federation is used— through its Travel Committee, through its other committees which hope to be- come clearing houses of information on the subjects which they cover—the bigger place’ it will have in campus life and the more useful it can be. International Connection. There is no doubt that*the most im- portant phase of the Federation is its international connection’ with the C. I. E. But to be a member of that organization, there must be a national -union, There are problems in which all students in this colintry aré interested and in which they find discussion with others who have..those. problems profitable. even though their ‘own ‘situation requires its individual solution. The N. S. F. A. is the instrument at*hand for this co-opera- tive use. . As a. host, the University of Nebraska left nothing to be desired. The delegates lived in. fraternity and. sorority houses. _The green badge which we all wore acted as open sésaine~to—social or any other -events. Next year the Congress is to”be at the University of Missouri, It was strongly recommended, though no resolu- tion was-passed on the subject, that the college should send at least otie Junior as a delegate or observer.
