Group Discusses _
Campus Activities

Common Room, November 11.
The newly-organized Student Fed-
eralist group of Bryn Mawr, un-
der the direction of Priscilla John-
son ’50, and Pamela Wah! ’50, out-
lined its work for the year at its
second weekly meeting. The or-
ganization, which welcomes those
interested—in—-world-_ government,
plans to conduct campus polls on
relevant issues, write letters. to
Jongressmen, and invite speakers
to talk on the important issues of
world government.

The Student Federalists do not
advocate one particular type of
global federation, like Reeves and
Streit, but have built their char-
ter on a broad basis to make room
for different opinions on the-sub-
ject. Several points of their char-
ter were clarified in the discussion
following the outline of the year's
vlans. The group supports the.
United ‘Nations only as “the prim-
iy existing international organi-
ration attempting to achieve these
‘ims of world government.” It
‘onsiders, however, that there are
lefinite faults in the U. N., and
1opes, through student pressure
rroups, to help bring about a re-
vision of its organization in the
‘uture. It is furthermore in fa-
vor of any world federation hav-
ng a federalist basis, by which is
neant a government with a high
iuthority with complete jurisdic-
‘ion. in international questions at
she thead.

The Student Federalists, by their
discussion groups and polls, hope
0 create campus-wide interest in
the issue of world government. To
further their work, there is a shelf
in the Quita Woodoward Room,
where current books on world fed-
eration are available to all stud-
ents.

Grad Club Plans
Year of Activity

The Graduate Club has been
planning an active program for
this year. They began their social
activities in a light mood with a
masquerade party on Hallowe’en.
The informal Graduate Dance, to
be held on November 16, is good
news. It will be the first Gradu-
ate Dance given in eight years.

A sight-seeing tour is . being
planned for the spring, as the large
number of foreign students in
Radnor have not had a chance to
become acquainted with Philadel-
phia and its vicinity. The Club
feels that such a tour would be fun
as well as a benefit to them. The
Grad Club will continue its discus-
sion meetings this year, and hopes
that the foreign students, as well
as professors, will lead them. Aida

Italy’s Problem
Of Re-Education
Stressed by Lelli

Common Room, November 7.
“Today in Italy we must re-edu-
cate from the grass roots”, declared
Miss Anna Lea Lelli, delegate
from Italy to the International
Assembly. for Women, in a talk
n “Underground~ Work in Italy
and Re-Education”.

Italy was “the best place for
preparation of an Underground”,
asserted Miss Lelli, since the “idea
of moral nationality” had never
formed there, due to division and
historic background. She stated
that centuries of foreign domina-
tion had made it patriotic for
Italians to act against the govern-
ment, and the Risorgimento had
been the work of “great lights”,
not the masses.

“We do not like the word ‘under-
ground’”’, said Miss Lelli, pointing
out that there had.been outspoken
Anti-Fascism from the start, in-
creasing after the Ethiopia episode,
when the leaders first began to
show their ignorance. Resistance
at_this stage was both—moral-and
intellectual.

Real action began with the oc-
cupation of the Germans, stated
Miss Lelli, herself an active par-
tisan, although politically intern-
ed. She stressed the fact that the
“Patriots” were “fighters” and ex-
plained that the problem was to
get them news, arms, food, and
money. To do this it was some-
times necessary to resort to force.
German vengeance was heavy, and
the lives of about 27,000 patriots
were taken, she added.

With such a background the task
of\ re-education is of paramount
importance in Italy, Miss Lelli de-
clared. She pointed out three goals

Talk on Friends’
Student Projects

Common Room, November 12.
The purpose of the American
Friends Service Committee is to
enable people of different racial,
religious anud cultural backgrounds
to live and work together “in such
a way that another catastrophe
like the one which the world has
just endured will never take place
again”, said Mr. Robert Lyon and
Miss Louise Young of the A-F.S.C.
All students, said Mr Lyon, should
realize that something is shocking-
ly wrong when nearly 80% of our
governmnt’s budget this year is
being spent for war purposes or as
a result of the war such as. vet-
eran’s allowances and payment on
war bonds. Also academic freedom
i sbeing encroached upon, added
Mr. Lyon, for many physical sci-
entists are still in government
service who could be teaching in
the schools and in Nashville, Tenn.
there is compulsory military train-
ing in the schools.

Many student projects are spon-
sored by this organization such as
work camps which enable students
of various backgrounds to live to-
gether in the summer, where they
gain “personal development” by
learning to know other people,
have a chance to educate the com-

“Price control was really under- |
mined & year ago,” stated Miss |
Mildred Northrop, of the Econom-
ics Department, in a discussion of
the recent removal of price con-
trols except on rent, sugar, and
rice.

Miss Northrop began her discus-
sion of the causes and implications
of the present situation by sketch-
ing the background of price con-
trols during the war years. Under
the wartime economy, price con-
trols were backed up by a system
of direct allocation of raw mate-
rials. A number of interlocking
and integrated agencies providing
control of materials, resources,
and production formed a _ vital
backlog for the rationing and price
control functions of the Office of
Price Administration.

The present situation began V-J
Day when the first price controls
were lifted. Shortly after the war
ended, lend lease was terminated.
Government allocation of r ma-
terials which was so important
the success of price controls, be-
gan to be discontinued in Septem-
ber and October of 1945. After
this was out of the picture, price
control had to bear the whole bur-
den of holding down end prices.
The long and bitter battle over the
continuation of O. P. A. in the
spring of this year and the subse-
quent passage by. Congress of a
price control bill which was very
difficult to administer, lead almost
inevitably ot the recent “spectac-
ular battle of meat.”

There are two chief issues in-
volved in the present situation.
The first is the danger of a fairly |
immediate inflationary spiral and
an eventual boom and depression.
Such an inflation might /easily | re-

Assembly Stressed
‘By Lograsso

To the Editor:

It seems unfortunate to me that
the College News account of the
recent meeting of delegates from
Assembly for
Women with students and faculty
at the Deanery failed to stress cer-
tain common fundamental points in
the short speeches made by the
various delegates.

Desire for World Freedom

All of the speakers (with thé
possible exception of the delegate
from Sweden) gave expression to
the longing for liberty among the
peoples they represented. We who
listened felt that these delegates,
most of whom had experienced di-
rectly the terror of tyrann (some

had been confined to pri§on or-in_

concentration camps;/ some had
known first-hand the scourge of
war;/others had beer active in re-
sistance movembts)/ were giving
testimony. to-the desire for freedom
and democracy the world over. .
Surely this o4nnot be a matter
of indifference to us Americans.. It
ought to give us the courage to
demand from our leaders a fer-
eign policy based on principles that
will encourage democratic move-
ments all over the world rather
than throttle them at birth—as our
present-foreign policy (and a good
portion of our press) is surely and




steadfastly doing. (I am thinking

of the recent coalition of Commun-
ists, and Socialists in Italy, with,
at the same time, a resurgence of
Fascist movements so that the re-
nascent Italian democracy, so hope-
ful for all of us, bids fair to be
squeezed out of existence between
a totalitarianism of the left and
one of the right. I am thinking,
too, of the recent Communist’ vic-
tory in France. I am contemplat-
ing, as well, the recent strength-

Senator Fulbright’s recent suggestion to the effect that
President Truman resign after appointing Vandenberg Sec-
retary of State seems to us to represent an uncalled-for and
defeatist attitude. It is certainly possible that a Republican

Congress and a Democratic President can lead to two diffi-
cult and domestic years for this country, already at an in-
ternational crisis, but it is not at all inevitable.

Mr. Truman, in his Armistice Day speech, declared: that
the times demand a national rather than a party program;
he advocated the use of “wisdom and restraint”. It is evident

and perhaps even more basic one
of full employment.

Miss Northrop also stressed the
fact that since the nations of the
world are soydependent upon the
United States,” our own instabil-
ity is bound to bring difficulties in
the rest/ of the world, ” and warn-
ed that the United States has no
right to “accept political interna-
tionalism and at the same time de-

(Mrs. Paul Werner) . ening of both Fascist and Com-
munist forces in South America, -I
am considering. recent evidence of
open antagonism to the United
States in Japan and Germany. . -
Value of Spiritual Faith
Another fundamental point that —
emerged from the speeches was,
it seemed to me, the earnest belief
in the prevalence of spiritual and
religious values: some of the speak-
ers mentioned God; other, Christ-

that Mr. Truman: himself is completely sincere and will do all
he can to help his country, in spite of his Senator from Ar-

kansas and other gentlemen who talk too much!

It is late to worry about party policies, when we so des-
perately need a foreign policy, and it seems foolhardy for a
member of Congress publicly to deprecate the man who is,
after all, the leader of the United States, and its representa-

tive among the nations of the world.

We should remember, on the anniversary of. the ending
of a world war which must be distinguished by a numeral,
another time, in 1918, when Congress and the President were

of different parties.

Similar to the first group of for-
eign undergraduates at Bryn Mawr
interviewed, science and languages
are the main interests of the stu-
dents,- who either want to travel
or to take their scientific knowl-
edge back to their native coun-
tries.

Christel Kappes, having lived in
Germany with her German parents
until 1936, arrived in the United
States by way of a former S. S.
Marine Corps troop ship from Pal-
estine six weeks before college be-
gan. She speaks German, Eng-
lish and Arabic fluently, and some
French, and came to Bryn Mawr
to study because there are no uni-
versities in Palestine, other than
the Hebrew one, and.she cannot
speak Hebrew.

Her education in Palestine was
carried on in four different schools.
They were: a German school in
Jerusalem, an American Friends’

to return to Germany after col-
lege, although she is not sure that
she wants to live there permanent-
ly. .

"Although Elizabeth Grey knew
that’ she had been accepted at
Bryn Mawr last spring, she could
not get a seat on a plane from
England until after college had
started. So, she arrived here less
than three weeks ago at La Guar-
dia Field, was dazzled briefly by
the lights of New York City and
rushed to Maryland to stay with
her godmother for the week-end.
Therefore, she has hardly been
here long enough to make her
mind up about anything other
than to study languages so that
she can travel.

both the United States and Chile.
Her father is an American, now
farming in Chile where Lynn was
born, and her mother is English.

ianity. Certainly there was no
evidence that the vast majority of
peoples in the world place materi-
alistic values above the spiritual.
That they desire to benefit from
the technological advances made
by science does not detract one jot
from the primacy of the spiritual.
This, too, should be highly signifi-
cant for all of us and should calm
those who are blinded by the hys-
terical fear of the spread of Marx-
ist Communism. Communism will
surely spread (and neo-Fascism,
too), if the United States fails to
lead in making a just and durable
peace for harassed humanity, but
it will not be because peoples de-
sire it.
Alive to Reality

Another important point, it
seemed to me, was the fact that
these women believed that no sec-

Finally, Baroness Ann - Marie

protest against the deterministic,

in such statements as: “War is in-

about it”! (with a shrug of the|
shoulders); “But what can Jimmy
Byrnes do with those terrible Rus-

(Though some of us fail to per-

ones, from that unhappy Confer-

At bottom, behind all these evas-

Stavraki, from Greece:

“My home-town is Athens. Yes,
the city of art. But I hope that
you don’t mind my sincerity though
I say that it might be better for
foreigners to neglect Acropolis for
a while and take for a change some
snaps of the burnt Greek villages.
I- don’t say this only*for patriotic
reasons. It is just because I think
that the future of art ought to be
our chief concern nowadays. I am
a student of classical literature
myself, but I came to the States

‘ not so much to study as to learn

to know this part of the world, its
people and its ideals. During the
war years,gwhen I used to teach
at a classical gymnasium I notic-
ed that in difficult times it is not
book-learning that you need, but
human understanding and mutual
support. As almost every Greek,
I took part in the underground
movement, too, bringing messages
to persecuted patriots to their
hiding-places, etc., but these are
only memories now. -I like

ular, and what strikes me as the
most admirable American charac-
teristic is their skill in making
every newcomer feel at home. As

a matter of fact I have almost
completely forgotten that I am a

foreigner.”

“Here I should like to put my
word in,” said the other girl, our

Egyptian friend Aida Gindy, who
being a second year graduate—is
probably known to most of you.
“I agree with Calliope in many
Points, especially as to the great-
er importance of the present in
comparison with the past. So if
you come and ask me what. my
home town Cairo is like, I’ll ruth-
lessly crush all your beautiful
dreams about camels and sphinxes

and pyramids and tell you that it

is a miniature New York. It has
even two sky-scrapers; 15 stories
high. In the same connection let
me tell you that I have not seen a
single living erocodile in my _ life,
that the days of harem-romance
are over, that a veiled women is
nowadays a rare sight in the
streets and that the Nile is not blue
but muddy. Still, Egypt is an in-
teresting country though as a so-

The final blow came with the
overabundance of men so again the
