Progress Of Freedom In The U. S.

New York, Oct. 18, 19.—“The
future of freedom in our land
seems to me to depend upon two
essentials; the continuous develop-
ment of our economic system, and
the improvement of our political
system,” said Governor Thomas E.
Dewey as he opened the annual
two day Forum at Hunter College,
sponsored by the New York Her-
ald Tribune. The theme of the
Forum this year was “Progress of
Freedom in the United States.”
Two subjects were discussed at
the Forum. “Steps toward Racial
Integration” was the first problem

The fact that one may be intro-

means was one of the main points
made by the French poet, Pierre
Emmanuel, on Oct. 25, at Wynd-
ham.
Mr. Emmanuel, one of the group
of poets of the Resistance that in-
cludes Paul Eluard, spoke in
French on how to read poetry,
with emphasis on the contempo-
rary poets, He cited his own case
as an example.
When he was a schoolboy, Mr.
Emmanuel was often told to write
a poem on a certain theme, to use
a certain form, to use a certain
rhyme scheme. He wag thus ex-

nouncement did not contain the words “required and fined”?
If it were only the interested few, so what?
A “captive audience” will not efficiently or even capably
carry out class business. This business consists mainly of
electing officers and preparing songs for college traditions.
Voting to elect a class officer requires knowledge of the
qualifications for the office and a desire to see a competent
person elected. Only if we are prepared to think about the
outcome can we do that well. If people do not care, why
should they come? Their votes are meaningless.
Traditions at school are regarded by the student body as
enjoyable. Why should fining be necessary to force them to
come if that is the case? No one has ever found it necessary
to fine absence from class show rehearsals. Why should they
do so for Lantern Night and May Day?
If not enough people show up when these meetings are
not fined, either the traditions or our attitudes need to be
re-evaluated.
Some say fines give that extra little prod to interested
students who wouldn’t come otherwise. Why should that
prod be necessary? Why should class meetings be a painful
chore?
A change in scheduling might make them less bother-
some. With meetings held from 1:30 to 2:00 half the time
is spent waiting for late comers to arrive, and the other half
letting people leave early. A meeting at 5:00 would get the
business finished more efficiently. This would allow time for
the nomination and election of several officers in one session.
Basically, how we allocate our time in college is up to us.
If class meetings and college traditions are not our choice,
we should not be forced to participate. Those who are in-
terested will attend the meetings and appreciate the improve-

Community Church
What is the Community Church
of New York? It does not consid-
2r itself within either the Christ-
an or Jewish faiths, as such.
In its own words, it is, rather
than a church dedicated to any
creed or dogma, or ruled by any
hierarchy, a church composed of
“a group of people”... united in|
a democratic fellowship, and dedi-
cated to the belief that “religion
is not primarily a matter of pro-
fessing belief in theological . ..
dogmas, but a matter of under
standing the great relationships
of life, and learning how to live
happily within them.”
“It strives to be a voluntary
democratic group, on the highest
level of spiritual sharing and
achievement.”

Could Students Buy
WashingM achines?
A washing machine in every hall
would be the result of a plan sug-
gested by Miss Compton, of the
Bureau of Recommendations.
At Smith, her alma mater, each
hall bought a machine and divided
the cost evenly. It came to $10.00 |
per person. Since the machines |
had no coin slots, the girls signed |
up for washes and one girl was |
elected to collect the money.
The venture worked so well that
graduating seniors received their
$10.00 plus 1% interest. If we}
liked, we could get machines with
coin slots or put the cost on pay
day. :
Does anybody know where we
can get some washing machines

Liz started by telling a little
about the various jobs involved in

directly involved with the making
of the set. She then conducted: the

had ample opportunity to see and
mingle with Italians in her work
at the Academy.
She found that when she travel-
ed through the country by bus, she
had far greater and more intimate
contacts with the people than she
does now since she has a car. Miss
Taylor considers the newspapers,
although partly controlled, and the
radio, other very helpful sources of
information about Italy. Also, she
finds that excavating ruins with
native labor is one of the best
ways of getting into a country.
Wages Rises
Although she can see no partic-
ular reason for it, Miss Taylor
finds the general conditions in
Italy improving. However, the
standard of living is still poor and
will continue to be considerably
lower than that to which we are
accustomed.
Unemployment has lessened, but
there is much part time employ-
ment. Wages have gone up in pro-
portion to living standards, but
this holds true only for the labor-

ing classes.
Still there are from 5,000 to
10,000 more cars registered in
Rome every year. The average
workman, however, contents him-
self with a motorcycle. While tel-
evision has been in Italy only a
year, the one set Miss Taylor look-
ed at was in her cook’s home.
Though general conditions in
Italy has improved, the political
situation has not. The government
is a shell, rife with bribery and
the scandal of the Montesi case.
Yugoslavian Trade
The Trieste settlement with
Yugoslavia took the _ spotlight
away from corruption in govern-
ment and seems to have saved it
for a little while longer. The main
topic of discussion in the treaty
was not the division of territory,
but the probability of a great deal
of future trade with Yugoslavia.
The huge Communist opposition
party in Italy suffered a setback
over the Trieste treaty. They an-
nounced that Italy had been sold
out on Zone B of the Trieste terri-
tory, expecting Russia’s sanction
of this policy; Russia claimed she
thought the settlement
lent thing.
The taxes are exorbitant, with
a great many indirect ones. They
definitely discriminate against the
lower classes. Though bribery and
corruption are everyday occur-
rences, Miss Taylor says that she
was never cheated in any of her
business transactions,
Miss Taylor found the Italians
well-informed generally but not
mainly interested in politics. Their
newspapers,
an excel-
however, carry an
amazing amount of American news
and observations on American life.

position in the world today was re-
viewed by Lewis L. Strauss. Mr.
Strauss said that the atom is the}
one weapon of war which has man-
aged to prolong peace. By posses-
sion of the atom and a-realization
of its destructive powers, a major
world war has been avoided. Un-
like other weapons, the atom has
great potentialities for peace.
In the controversial race for
Governor of New York state, Aver-
ell Harriman, Democrat, and Irv-
ing M. Ives, Republican, spoke. Mr.
Harriman urged that everyone vote
Democratic in order to obtain a
“government that will measure up
to the standards of the people, and
give them an adequate farm pol-
icy, civil service, better care for
the aged.”
Mr. Ives, on the other hand, urg-
ed the election of the Republican
party, which has “experience, and
is not, like the Democrats, recap-
tured by Tammany Hall.”

ing to Winston—the new filter cigarette real
smokers can enjoy! Winston’s got real flavor

“thin” the taste or flatten the flavor. New
Winstons are king-size for extra filtering
action — and easy-drawing for extra good
taste. Try a pack of Winstons. You'll really
enjoy ’em!
Winston tastes good —
like a cigarette should!

Broughton Named
Faculty Secretary
Mr. T. Robert S.
chairman of the Latin Department,
Broughton,
has been elected secretary of the
faculty. He succeeds Mr. Samual
Claggett Chew, who retired in
June (1954).
Mr. Broughton is also president
of the American Philological Asso-
ciation and in December, 1953, re-
ceived the association’s award of
merit given annually for an out-
standing contribution to classical
scholarship, for his two-volume
work, Magistrates of the Roman
Republic.
He was a member of the faculty
of Amherst College before coming
to Bryn Mawr in 1928. Both Gug-
genheim and Fulbright Fellow-
ships have been awarded to Mr.
Broughton while at Bryn Mawr.
The Class of ’57 gave $672
in Freshman Show proceeds for
undergraduate scholarships. This
is the largest class gift donated
for the purpose.
Science Club Offers

’T will be the witching hour for
sure Thursday night when stu-
lents mix with faculty at the
science Club Hallowe’en Party.
ill members of the science de-
partments or Science Club and
interested students are cordially
ivited to come to Applebee Barn.
oan Smith, newly elected co-pres-
dent, and Maddie de Ropp will be
ready to greet all guests. This
party is traditionally held every
fall so that science students will
aave a better chance to become ac-
quainted with their professors.
Laura Dennis, decoration chair-
man, has painted several murals
for the walls. She plans to supple-
ment them with Jack-O’-Lanterns
and, of course, a witches’ brew will
boil and bubble in a cauldron on
the fire.
The club plans to serve punch—
not from the cauldron — and to
roast marshmallows over _ the
flames.
Margie Fair has planned the
games, which will have a scientific
theme. One could find herself look-
ing for an Erlenmeyer flask in a
treasure hunt or imitating a Bun-
sen burner as everyone plays
charades.

Orals Brought Woe
To the Editors:
Do you realize the results of the
first orals? In French only four
people passed who have not had
preparations beyond entrance re-
quirements. Of the 37 who passed,
21 had had a major language, six
had studied abroad and the other
six had had as much as minor
French. That makes 54 per cent
failures, or 10 per cent more than
have ever occurred’ since records
have been kept, i.e., since 1904. In
German we came through a little
better, though 49 per cent failed
and only 40 per cent had not had
some preparation beyond entrance.
The same number, 40 per cent, had
had a major language and the oth-
er 20 per cent had studied abroad.

WHAT A BUY! Chesterfield regular and king-
size. (Both at the same price in most places).
JACK WEBB AND BEN ALEXANDER
You know them best as Sgt. Joe Friday and Officer Frank
Smith — stars of Chesterfield’s award-winning “Dragnet”
on TV and Radio. They’re now starred in the movies,
too, in Warner Bros.’ great new picture, “Dragnet.”
Jack Webb and Ben Alexander want what you want
from a cigarette. Relaxation, comfort, satisfaction. They
know where to find it—because in the whole wide world,
no cigarette satisfies like a Chesterfield.
Chesterfields are best to smoke because they alone
have the right combination of the world’s best tobaccos.
Chesterfields are best for you because they’re highest
in quality, low in nicotine.
Try a carton of Chesterfields today.
