Back Again
Thodb who rend my letter in this
column in the jSmorakl of Saturday
-will reiliensber that it was followed
by a reply from our editor. The
reader will remember that, editor
ials have been discontinued be
cause there is a tendency for thu
editor to dictate public opinion
mil also because our editor wishes
to stimulate the unguided critical
thought of the renders. In my let
ter I intimated that all this is only
dramatic bluff in defense of an
easiest way to “get by” as editors.
To this the editor offered no nr
guinont and did not attempt, to ans
wer any of my arguments but
rather resorted to the old illogical
and, t.imc-'woim method of “ beg
ging thu question.” We attempted
to explain all by saying that the
writer, was not sufficiently familiar
"with journalistic problems to eriti
cm*.
Perhaps .the editor would be more
willing to accept criticisms of the
Morning Oregonian. I quote its edi
torial of Saturday, February tl.'l, as
follows: "The thought obtrudes
that the c.(liters wlio have many
distractions from* journalistic, work,
including their duties, may just be
taking (lie easiest, way.”
1 note that earlier in the year edi
. « o
torials were followed by the in it L;i Is
of q1 11e associate editors of editors
who wrote them. The fact that in
itials of associate* editors appeared
°so often indicates the great number
of editorials which they wrote. A
new policy was then adopted where
by identity of the writers was not
made public. No initials offered.
Now whether those who had pre
viously contributed editorials were
unwilling to write without credit
we con only speculate. However,
the Eniorald now “Defies Conven
tions; No More Editorials.”
The writer is firmly convinced
that editorials are essential to a
good student paper and their ab
sence will lower the journalistic
standing of the Emerald. This new
policy has already provoked unfav
orable comment from many of the
leading papers of the state. Hays
the Morning Oregonian: “It is
hardly likely that the Emerald’s
policy will prove popular with the
readers. A student newspaper is the
voice of undergraduate opinion as
well as a chronicle of school news.
Publication of contributed letters
hardly meets the situation.”
CLAUDE L. HALL.
Note: Wo did not devote space
in the columns of the Emerald to
answer Mr. Hull’s first letter in
full, since so doing would have con
stituted a breach of the Emerald’s
present policy of substitution of
letters for editorials. We are glad
that the writer is so keenly inter
ested in Hie situation, and if he 1
will call at the Emerald office we
sl.all bo glad to go over tire ‘question
with him. This applies also to any
one else an the campus who is suf
ficiently interested.
In connection with the present
communication, may we ask two
questions: “Wouldn’t it be more
than passing strange if these
writers who make their living con
cocting editorials should favor tire
stand of the Emerald in abolishing
the thing from which they derive
their bread 'and butter?” Amt:
“What better ‘Voice of undergradu
ate opinion’ could there be than
the written opinion of the under
graduates themselves?”—Editor.
Also More Emeralds
Why don’t they deliver more
copies of your estimable paper to
the sororities and fraternities?
Every morning when I get up and
get downstairs a few minutes be
hind the vanguard there arc none
left to read. I do not think that
I am alone in this complaint as
I have heard many other persons
saying that their house did not re
ceive enough Emeralds to go around.
Everyone pays for and is entitled
to one so the matter should be
looked into.

Nicotine Bench Sought
What this school needs worse than
a new infirmary, worse titan a new
library, and worse than a single
board'of regents is a “nicotine
bench” between Oregon and Com
merce balls along the curb so that
the lawyers and their associates
may have some place to sit and
talk about briefs and eases and
take those very necessary puffs orf
of clgardts.
It would be a nice thing for some
class that lias enough mqjicy to
onflow such a"sent?of learning and
dedicate it to themselves.

Publicity
In glancing over a couple of out
of town newspapers I noticed com
ment in them concerning the Emer
old’s no-editorial stand. Not being
ail authority I would hesitate to
pass judgment upon the merits of
the plan, hut at least if it has no
other favorable aspects it lias re
sulted in bringing wide attention to
the Emerald and in giving Oregon’s
student paper a good deal of pub
licity.

Another Pica for a Hall
Concerning the recent plea in the
Emerald for a suitable hall for stu
dent dances, let me cast another
vote in favor of “doing something”
and doing it in a hurry. The prob
lem of decorating the Igloo makes
dances there almost prohibitive, and
the floor at tlie Woman’s building
makes dances impossible,

Politics, What?
This morning’s Emerald (Feb. t?7)
contains a communication signed by I
the managing editor of that august
journal correcting a statement ap
pearing in the paper yesterday
(Feb. “(!). The Emerald said yes
terday that the managing editor
had announced his candidacy for
editor; the managing editor in his
communication said that lie iiad not.

Now, what are the peculiar duties
of flic managing editor? I always
thought that he looked over and
passed upon the news appearing in
the Kmerald. If he was on the job
why didn’t he see the st6ry before
it was printed? Perhaps he did and
saw a rhancc to get seine publicity,
intending to anftounce his candidacy
later. Perhaps the political pot lias
hoguti to boil again. What?

the skilful financing and careful business man
