TO TUpN events into ideas is
the purpose of literature.
It looks at natural things with
an incorrigibly dramatic eye,
turning them into permanent uni
ties, and almost intimate per
sons, grouping them by their
imaginative or moral affinities.

When in Doubt
Try Suppression
«T INCOLN APPLESAUCE” and
JL/the storm it caused is evident
ly still fresh in the minds of the
University of Washington faculty*
Or perhaps the diplomatic corporals
of erudition have heard of the sup
pression of the Liberal club and
the dismissal of two friendly fac
ulty members at the Pennsylvania
State Normal school becauso mem
bers of the club criticized the gov
ernment’s Nicaraguan policy.
But whatever the reason, and it
didn’t appear in print, the faculty
at the northern institution has per
formed another of its periodic
stunts by virtue of which it will no
doubt merit the applause of tlio
good citizens of the state. But there
will be many others who will look
askance at the bravo teachers who
issued an order prohibiting a stu
dent meeting, called by campus lead
ers, for the discussion, of the Chinese
problem, from making any criticism
of the American government or pass
ing any resolutions. Moro specific
ally, Chinese students were prohibit
ed from making adverse comment
on the American policy. This with
out any intimation from the stu
dents that they were contemplating
criticism or resolutions.
To all of which restrictions the
leaders of the conference should
have answered with an emphatic
“No!” Unfortunately they did not,
but submitted, instead, to the fac
ulty order, announcing that only a
discussion would be hold. The meet
ing was scheduled for Wednesday
night and reports of the proceedings
are not yet available, but it would
be pleasing to hear that instead of
.upending an evening in criticising
the government, the students paid
full tribute to the intellectual in
tegrity and moral honesty of their
mentors.
Ilow do these purported peda
gogues reconcile their cowardice to
their duty as teachers? Clearly the
students would have been acting
within their rights had they do
sired to criticize. This (not that
such matters count for much any
more) is a right said to reside in
the national constitution. That a
university faculty should have
placed limits upon freedom of ex
pression and denied voice to opin
ions that are being voiced openly
by private citizens, by statesmen,
by politicians, by students, and aye,
even by daring college professors,
throughout the laud, is without ex
cuse. Fear of censure evidently
makes discreet silence and intellec
tual immorality more expedient than
honesty.
And come to think of it, the good
citizens of the state probably will
not censure the faculty for its re
pression of freedom of expression.

IT HAS been hinted with some de
gree of frequency during the past
few weeks that what this institu
tion needs is more co-operation. Yes
sir. Wo ought to get together. It
is suggested, therefore, that the
victims of the recent political hol
ocaust show their public spirit in
the organization of a society which
might, for want of a better name,
bo called The Ancient, Honorablo
and Annihilated Order of Defeated
Candidates.
The potential utilities of such a
group are manifold. It would be
self-perpetuating to a degroo almost
inexorable. It could serve as a lab
oratory for campus political exper
iment. Its members hvould have
both the leisure and tho ability to
formulate its constitution—one with
out flaws or inconsistencies that
could bo emulated by all other cam
pus organizations. It could arrange
little semi-weekly fireside discus
sions on such topics as “Why tho
Best Man Lost,” or “I Didn’t Want
to Bun but My Friends Mado Me.”
It could oven put forth efforts, after
| tho passage of a suitable interval,
to graduate certain of its junior
members into moro successful
■ spheres. But by then, no doubt,
the society will have attained to
i such a degree of dignified detach
| meet that any thought of material
success would bo considered infin
! itely below the high realm of ab
j struct policies.
Tho motto of tho order might be,

The new plan is primarily for
bringing the various tutors into a
group in order to give them more
work and allowing students to ben
