China the democratic spirit has

Perhaps the rarest treasure of

Crisis in Chem. Lab.
Shows Gates Ready
For Any Emergency
By Anne Denny, ’43
Chemistry - Geology Building,
Thursday, March 12..— ‘Hodes’
Flood” swept the organic chemis-
try lab, leaving in its wake a group
of weary but proud moppers draft-
ed from the advanced organic class.
Sam, the janitor, discovering four
inches of water at 7:45 in the
morning, donned his galoshes and
started bailing. He was joined
later by Veronica who perched her-
self on an overturned wastebasket,
and by six hardy students. With
the help of makeshift implements
the crew mopped, shovelled, and
pumped until the flood subsided.
While Mr. Gates, gazing upon
the catastrophe, remarked, “Every
time I wear this suit it rains’,
quick-thinking Mrs. Gates jumped
on her bicycle and flew home for a
camera.
The disaster was finally traced
to a vacuum pump which Evie}
Hodes’ had left going all night.
Since a class was out of the ques-
tion the culprit expiated her crime
by taking the heroic crew to the
Inn after it was all over.
Although the day was saved by
two stirrup pumps which are Mr.
Doyle’s pride and joy, water was
also removed effectively by nine
sponges, two pails, a coal shovel, a
broom, and a mop. In the midst of
it all, someone suggested that Mr.
Gates give his lecture on ‘“theavy
water”. His only answer —was,
“Yes, it does get heavy after the
third pail”.

~ Telling Caricatures,
Portraits Exhibited; _
Taylor Tower, Featured
By. Sally. Matteson,.’43
Taylor Hall has crashed the
world of art. In the exhibit of
Miss Mary Meigs’ paintings in the
Rhoads“show case the old familiar
shape looms large. Taylor Tower
with Twins, Miss Meigs’ first oil,
portrays the artist and her sister
standing in Senior Row in front
‘of a green Taylor—perhaps El
Greco influence, for he is her favor-
ite artist. Freshman English, Miss
'M. Meigs shows an assortment of
students with Taylor and a winged
Pallas Athena (?) soaring above.
It is in these Bryn Mawr scenes
that Miss Meigs shows her gift for
expressive outline and good-hum-
ored caricature. The twins are in
contrast: one soft with dreamy
eyes, the other_erect and angular.
The Freshmen have in their faces
all degrees of bewilderment, en-
thusiasm, and fatigue.
The outline technique receives its
most masterful treatment in Dr... °
and Mrs. Meigs Without Class
Baby. Here contour and modeling
are combined with style in a dy-
namic portrait. The Man of God
and Bunthorne as Terry Ferrer are
telling but tolerant satires.

technique where roundness and
shading have greater emphasis. ~

for student workers.
We believe that the Alliance, as-a-supplement-to-the Bureau
of Recommendations, is taking an important step in helping the
undergraduate to find a summer position, This added attention to
the needs and abilities of the individuals will provide the necessary
_contact with many students.
The research required for finding these jobs has been compre-
hensive. The advice to undecided students promises to be excel-
lent, and there is no reason why the project should not equal or
excel the success of the Connecticut College program. Employers
are eager for volunteers or for salaried, college trained employees.
The jobs are there. The bureau will help you find one. The rest
lies with you.
: Nominating Committees
Last year a nominating committee for the ‘Junior Class, com-
posed of representatives from each hall, was established. For the
elections of the past two years this committee has furnished pre-
liminary lists of nominees to be presented to ‘the class, which
cheoses the final candidates. It has FuIGUSG: a need and proved
entirely’ successful. ,
Before the committee was established, class nominati¢ns
wasted time and effort. Insufficient knowledge of the candidates,
numerous and hasty nominations /complicated the proceedings. It
was felt that such a haphazard, ‘method of filling important offices
was dangerous.
The system of nomination committees has dispensed with
these drawbacks, since the groups have proved thoroughly repre-
sentative of class opinion. By carefully considering each member |;
of the class, they choose qualified candidates, including those who
might be overlooked in the rush of a large meeting. Although the
classes -may add to the lists, they have seldom done so—a proof of
the success of the committees...
Elimination of the confusion in nominations has resulted from
the system. We urge its continuation.

Vitriolic Article in Partisan Review Attacks
Dr. Frederick Schuman as Underhanded Red’
By Alice Iseman, ’43
“Frederick L. Schuman’s .

eler is both interesting and typical.
For almost a decade he has played
tag with the ‘party-line’ and lin-
So says the Trotskyite Par-
risan Review of March-April, 1940,
in a vitriolic account entitled The
Strange Case of F. L. Schuman.
Mr. Schuman who spoke at Bryn
Mawr last week, is accused of con-
cealing his nefarious activities un-
der the cloak of liberalism. The
Partisan Review suggests that this
protestation of liberalism is merely
in line with the “Trojan Horse”
tactics’ adopted by the Seventh
Congress of the Communist Inter-
national in 1935. Even under oath,
the article asserts, “Schuman flatly
denied he had any ideas which
were in. any way radical’, and
adds, “He maintained that he had
never signed the Open Letter
which appealed for support of the
Communist candidates in 1932.”
As conclusive proof of his perjury,
it states “Theré were those who
had seen his signature to the let-
”
ter”’,
Almost outdoing itself, the agti-
cle concludes with this flourish.
“Intellectual integrity and _ scienti-
fic method, academic freedom and
democracy, are ideals which are
not well served by espousing one
or another varieties of Moscow,
Rome, or Berlin totalitarianism
Schuman has tried to use|
the apparatus of scholarship first
to persuade others that Stalinism
and liberalism were blood brothers
. but he would use the same
apparatus to exculpate Stalinism
from its sins of commission on the
grounds that politics didn’t involve
ethics . . so crass a formula-
tion of the debased doctrine: ends
justify means, presents. a sordid
spectacle. To this’ sordidness,
Schuman has made a major con-
tribution.”

OPINION
Schweitzer Reviews Pacifist
Position in Society Geared
For War Action
To the Editor of the College News:
This letter is another after-
thought of Mr. Weiss’ talk on
Pacifism.
It seems to me that modern so-
ciety at war leaves only two con-
sistent solutions for someone who
thinks he is a pacifist.
The first one is to leave that so-
ciety and look for one in which he
can live a pacifistic way of life. (I
admit that this is a rather imprac-
tical suggestion now, when there
is practically no such society.) The
second is to oppose openly and to
accept prison or whatever the pun-
ishment might be for’ such an of-
fense. All other solutions are com-
promises and therefore inconsist-
ent.
a soldier.
That is, fundamentally
everyone in thata society is doing
the same thing: we all fight.
I admit there is a difference in
degree of the extent to which any
given individual partakes in the
physical fighting, the killing of an-
other human being from the enemy
side’ But this difference in degree
is not a difference in kind. A so-,
ciety at war can be compared to
the production of a machine by
division of labor. The worker who
makes a wheel or the worker who
puts the whole machine together,
are they not both involved as much
in the production of the machine?
So in a society at war: no mat-
ter what the individual -is* doing,
whether we are so-called “long-
range” or not, we all contribute,
however indirectly and less ob-
viously, to the final product which
is the war machine. We all are
killing our enemies. This even
holds for the so-called “enemy
alien.” Through the restrictions
which are imposed upon him he is,
if negatively, partaking in the war.
A society at war is completely
organized in terms of war and
everyone living in that society is
Translated into ethical] terms:
No one action, profession or job
has a final meaning; they all are
said that Spain had undertaken representation of Axis interests in
South America “only to carry on an international Christian mis-
sion.” On March 8 in the New York Times the AP reported
that the Spanish Foreign Ministry announced that “it had ear-
marked 2,244,000 pesetas for expenses of the newly created
Central Office of Production, which is charged with looking after
Axis diplomatic and consular interests in American countries.”
And Harold Callender, correspondent of the New York Times
in Mexico City, sends important news of Axis activity there.and
adds thése significant remarks. :
“Apart from Axis aliens, there are Spanish nationals and the
Facist Falange Espanola, which they finance’ reportedly to the
extent of 200,000 pesos a month. Some of these Spaniards are
rich and influential, and their influence extends into high social
circles.”
Callender reports that Mexican authorities consider this Span-
~
travel freely to and from the United States. One is reported to
have ‘made -an extensive tour of American factoriesand to have
reported his findings to Franco, The Falange is also said to have
a military section.
Now technically Spanish Falangists are not members of the
Axis, and even more remote from such a stigma are their sympa-
thizers in the United States. This, obviously, enhan@es their value
|to the Axis and increases the danger ‘to the United States.
It has become sufficiently clear that not only alien enemies but
also their. American friends and other Axis agents must be dealt
with. Timidity, and. consideration for the feelings of such people
have no place in a democratic country at war. If -the machinery
is not available to deal with them, it should be created and used
immediately. .
Will the United States Government wake up before it is*too
late and thoroughly’ revamp its State Department, Femoving every
gentleman who has ever been an“apologist for Franco or “neutral”
toward the struggle in Spain, and_replace them by staunch _parti- |
sans of Spanish democracy who supported-the Loyalist cause to

Common Room, March 17.—Re-
viewing the-Russian situation, Miss
Robbins military
conditions of both the Russians and
ithe Germans, the probable strategy
ithat they will employ, the needs of
|Russia and the attitude of the
| Allied countries towards these
needs.
| The major question in everyone’s
hoe is whether the Russians can
defeat the Nazis. The rapidly ap-
secahitng thaw is, in general, fav-
/orable to the Gernians. The Rus-
sians, to date, have regained less
than a quarter of the land lost dur-
ing the summer campaign. This
insufficient gain will simplify the
‘situation for the Germans since
they are still in possession of the
terrain that is most difficult to
overrun. Furthermore, the Rus-
;Sians have lost one-half of their
iron and steel factories, while the
24 hour day of the German fac-
tories undoubtedly makes it possible
for them to replace many of their
losses in mechanized units. The lack
of reliable information received
from Russia makes it impossible to
tell whether the essential Panzer
Troops are being trained in
Siberia.
The picture, Miss Robbins said,
is black but the many gloomy
prophesies made last summer must
be remembered.
The Russians themselves appar-
ently feel that they cannot defeat
the Germans in Russia alone, al-
though their armies have improved
greatly since the Finnish campaign.
There is suspicion among many
in the United States and England
of co-operation with Russia. This
is partly caused by the fear in these
discussed __ the’
It is certain, however, that the
Marxist theory of world revolution
has been greatly modified and, un-
der Stalin, the Russians have been
following a realistic program aimed
towards the security of the
U.S.S.R.
parts which receive their meaning
through the whole, which is the
society at war. How could it be
otherwise? No one can say that
the soldier alone is the militarist,
that he alone acts unethical be-
cause he is doing the actual killing.
Then it would’be a privilege of the
girl in our ‘society to be ethical
because she does not shoot.
We all are responsible for the
war by the mere fact of living in
this society; and theréfore we -all
partake in it no matter what we do.
Thé pacifist failed at the moment
of the declaration of the war. His
mere non-opposing existence in this
society makes him a soldier as well
as everybody else.
It is inconsistent to stay in this
society and to call one’s self a
pacifist; it is self-deception to think
that doing “peaceful” work like
teaching in a society at war is
being a pacifist, and it is cowardice
to choose a “peaceful” job like
that of a teacher if one is better
qualified to be a soldier. It seems
essential to me that everyone re-
alizes that we are as much soldiers
as soldiers at the front. Discus-
sions whether war is right or wrong
seem superfluous from the moment
a war is declared. Everyone of us
declared it. It was our choice.
The only worthwhile thing to do
is to find that place in the society
in which the individual can be of
most: value to the whole. The
what he is doing, will be that of
war, but a war for peace. b

Hudson States Faith’
In International Law
For Post-War Period
To extend and hold its gains is
the problem faced by International
Law in the future, stated Dr. Man-
ley O. Hudson in his concluding
lecture of the series on Interna-
tional Law. Dr. Hudson expressed
his faith in the place International
Law would take in the organiza-
tion of the world after the war,
since the emphasis on future inter-
national organization must be
placed on function and not on
structure. We must apply what we
already have at hand to this fun-
tion.
The first function of world or-
ganization would be “to save peo-
ple from exploitation one by an-
other.” This raises colonial, mi-
nority and social justice questions
which we must handle with experi-
ence gained through the League of
Nations, the mandate system, and
minority treaties. International
organization must also protect
free intercourse of people which
we have already attempted through
the Communications Union and
maritime treaties. We are lacking
in agencies for dealing with the
third function . . maintaining
their Activities Drive, no funds:open channels of world trade. We
can utilize the success of interna-
tional law in dealing with the drug
trade and in establishing machin-
ery to suppress admitted abuses.
To deal with the function of settle-
ment of international disputes we
have the experience of the Court
of International Justice and Coun-
cil and Court of the League of Na-
tions, but a new approach to this
problem is necessary.
“There are basic factors that
condition a scheme of international
organization with such functions,”
Dr. Hudson declared. There must
be political freedom for dependent
and independent people, which
raises the question, “Will the great
empires. be restored, and if not,
what will be substituted?” There
must also be economic freedom giv-}-
ing reasonable opportunity for
people to secure their well-being, | :
as well as civic or spiritual free-
dom.
Dr. Hudson based his theories on
United
Nations will have an influence in
the determination of international
organization whatever the out-
come, that there will be the con-
tinuance of state systems known in
the past, and in spite of changes,
the world of the future will not be
altogther different from the one we
knew in the past.
Dr. Hudson stated that he places
his faith in efforts to build a satis-
factory world society and that the
gains of international laws will bé
extended into the universal laws
of an organized world.

Mysterious Bushes Vanish from Cloisters;
Crowded Goldfish Welcome Regained Peace
_ By Barbara Kauffman, ’43
Two or three years ago, non-
committal and.silent, four bushes
appeared around the cloister foun-
tain. No inquiry could unearth
whence or why they had come. No
amount of caustic remarks could
make them-fo. And for an equal
number of years, Freshmen stum-
bled over them on Lantern Night,
while, in the Spring, potential
Katharine Hepburns swam under
their protective shade.
Now? Now they are gone, in
the same mysterious fashion, leav-
Jing no tales behind them—save
four muddy pools on the cloister
lawn. No one knows why they
left, or if any one does, he or she
H..S. Ede, Art Critic,
Will Give Lecture on
National Art Gallery
A lecture on “The National Gal-
lery of Art, Washington, D. C.,”
will be given by H. S. Ede, on Sun-
day at 5:00 P. M., in the Deanery.
Mr. Ede, who was curator at the
National Gallery of British Art
for 15 years, is. well known in
England as a student and critic of
modern painting. His house in
London has been a rendezvous for
artists of every kind, as well as for
others interested in any of the
arts.
Mr. Ede is the author of Savage
Messiah, a biography of Henri
Gaudier-Brzeska, which was chosen
by the Book-of-the-Month Club
some years ago and enjoyed a
wide circulation in this country as
well-as-in-England.—_In--addition,
Mr. ‘Ede has written a book. on
Florentine Drawings of the -Fif-
teenth Century, and a number of
his articles have appeared in the
Burlington Magazine and other
leading art journals.
Under the auspices of The Insti-
tute of International Education,
Mr. Ede recently made two lecture
tours in America.
is being carefully silent. But
everyone is ready with sugges-
tions: Perhaps the paper shortage,
anticipation of Christmas, or pure
sabotage explain the deficiency.
Some hope that perhaps long
standing censure of them has at
last had effect. There was: never
anything technjcally wrong with
the bushes. Cloi$ters may, it ap-
pe ‘s,_have shrubbery <<. -, of
sorts. But aésthetically, the flora
were a sacrilege. The Cloisters,
one faction contended, were ren-
dered lineless. The Mediaeval
peace produced by symmetry and
stones ‘was __ shattered. Slacks,
chewing gum, Freshman English
classes and cigarettes had not dis-
turbed it then came the
bushes.
Kittens will become cats, . ‘
and bushes will grow. At first
only obtrusive, they became un-
manageable. They’ spread. They
cast shade. They crowded out the
goldfish. They were removed.
And neither these bushes nor
any related to them will return.
Once gone, we know better than to
give them another chance. The
pool will have a border of ivy. The
symmetry will continue again un-
disturbed. Mediaeval peace will
be restored.

Bryn Mawr Varsity,
Powerful Reserves
Squash Chestnut Hill
Gymnasium, March 14.—The
Bryn Mawr Varsity exhibited their
best basket shooting of the season
when they vanquished the Chestnut
Hill Varsity by 37-28. Throughout
the game the forwards were re-
laxed and made baskets with con-
summate ease.
Both teams’ guards were aggres-
sive and covered their opponents
well. Frannie Matthai consistent-
ly suppressed the scoring chances
of her opposing forward and play-
ed a steady defensive game.
At the half Bryn Mawr was far
ahead. . Chris Waples and Johnnie
Meyer both made excellent use of
flick shots to score. But each team
got progressively wilder and rough-
er as it tried desperately for bas-
kets in the second half.
The second team game was
equally exciting, and Bryn Mawr’s
stupendous lead of 46-3 added not
a little to the fame of the reserves.
Ruth Finger made many of her
baskets on the run; they were
beautiful shots to watch. Numer-
substitutions,
ous Chestnut Hill
however, flustered the invading
team, and the forwards were timid
in shooting.

A similar plan was successfully
| worked out last summer at Con-

employers or agencies was com-

|Miss Alison Raymond, warden of
| Pembroke West, is in charge of
| getting the necessary information
jand making the suggestions. Indi-

Raymond will treat each student’s
! problem separately.
Miss Raymond is bringing the
old list up-to-date with positions
made open by the war. These jobs
include work in settlement houses,
rural community organizations,
land _ housing projects, which need
student workers badly. There are
also many positions to be had in
few writing jobs and one or two
| government agency positions. The
‘easiest work to get is the volun-
teer job, but there are also possi-
| bilities for salaried positions.
Much of the work, while not di-
rectly under the National Defense
organization, is connected with the
defense effort. There are some
openings in research projects al-
lied with defense. It is difficult to
find jobs in students’ home towns,
but this is’ possible in large cities.

is the ideal place, however, since
it is small and the acoustics are

The projector will be employed
in curricular and extra-curricular

possible to show a series of defense

The Alumni Association, various
departments, and organizations on
campus contributed money for the
purchase of the projector. As yet,
Miss Park has not appointed a
supervisory committee. Money for
the soda fountain was obtained
from the bonds on a gift to the
Alumni Association.
