U. S. Foreign
Policy Must
Be Liberal
Dr. R. C. Clark Sees
Need of Fair Play
And Disarmament
By CAROL HURI.itTRT
If hell breaks Ions,, in the world
ami the United States is dragged
into another War, she will fight
against Grvftt Britain.
So said Dr. R. C. Clark, profes
sor o£ history, in an interview he
gave the Emerald yesterday on
“Amorim and Her Foreign Policy.”
“The most serious controversy
that, prevails at the moment,” he
explained, “is with Great Britain.
The inability of the powers to
agree on disarmament and the
rivalry of the two may lead to
serious 'disagreements, although 1
do not think that there will be any
war. 1
“The main hope is that there has
been a change ofadministration in
the United States and there is like
ly to he a change in the British gov
ernment. It is conceivable that the
Labor government will come into
’ power at the next elections in May
and will be more willing to make
concessions for disarmament.”
T>r. Clark was prevailed upon to
give his interview in the interests
of International Week which is now
in progress on the campus.
In speaking of the foreign poliey
of the United States in relation to
Great Britain he remarked, “1
rather believe that on the whole it
has been correct.
“I didn’t believe in our cruiser
bill, however, that has been held as
a sort of club over Great Britain’s
head.
“I think that America is right
in demanding that there should be
absolute equality between the two
nations in their naval strength. It
seems that the policy of the present
British government is to evade the
carrying out of that resolution, but
I think that there should be some
means of satisfying that without
America’s launching out on an am
f bitious program of naval construc
tion.”
“I don’t think,” ho stated, “that
we have anything ourselves to fear
from other nations. The United
States is now the great outstanding
nation of the world, so overwhelm
ingly rieli in resources as to make
it dangerous for others to attack
her.
“Tf we are brought into any
trouble with outside powers I think
it \\*ill be because of our aggres
siveness.
“True patriotism isn !t in exalt
ing your own country above others.
We must distinguish between pat
riotism and untra-nationalism. There
is nothing necessarily conflicting
between loving your own country
and others.
“There is a wrong sort of pat

Faculties for Recreation
Discussed on Trip
On Coast
A hope that “ground will bo fly
ing early this summer” ami a. eon
vielion firmer than ever that Ore
gon eaa have a splendid infirmary
building for $100,000 — these
thoughts Dr. John F. Bovard, head
of physical education brought back
to Eugene when lie returned Friday
from Berkeley, California, after at
tending a meeting of the Pacific
coast heads of recreation work and
viewing the University of Califor
nia’s plan for the new student hos
pital.
Cost Estimated at $350,000
The California infirmary, esti
mated to cost $350,000 includes hos
pital equipment, lias 100 beds and
four stories, the lower two being de
voted to the clinic, and dispensary,
and the upper two to beds and hos
pital equipment, Dr. Bovard explain
ed yesterday afternoon, declaring
that, “most certainly if California
can have such a large, complete and
well-equipped hospital for $350,000
we can surely have a complete, mod
ern unit for $100,000.”
Hospital Well Equipped
JNo ward in tlie ( aliforma uni
versity's lios]>itn 1 will have more
than four beds, most of them will
have two. A plug will connect a
telephone and radio music to every
room, and every room will have
lavatory equipment, with showers
rather than tubs. Beds will be
wheeled, doing away with moving
to wheeled stretchers, and all doors
will be large enough to permit their
passage in and o-ut. There will be
a sun porch. ,
To Be Complete Student Hospital
It’s to be built to be a complete
student's hospital and it certainly
is,” commented Dr. Bovard. “Yes,
I’m all the more convinced that we
can have a fine building here. They
are working on the samp theory we
have here, that the health service
can educate students and better
health habits and improve the con
tact between students and the medi
cal profession.”
Many States Visited
Meeting with men in his work
from Utah, Idaho, Washington, Cal
ifornia, and British Columbia April
4, b, and (i, ini sessions of the
Pacific coast association of recrea
tion workers, Dr. Bovard heard his
theory that a knowledge and under
standing of applied sociology as
well as a foundation in physical
education is essential in recreational
work expressed and approved.
“It was primarily to study the
qualifications for recreational work
ers that I attended and it was in
teresting to find that conviction re
cognized. We are trying to show
those who engage such workers that
simply a personality particularly fit
ted, or a complete'physical educa
tion is not sufficient. A practical
knowledge of social problems is
essential. ”
Mothers Get Attention
Growing attention is being given
to providing recreation for mothers,
he said, describing newly instituted
camps where recreation is provided
for all members of the family and
all housework and child care away
from t7ic mother, giving her op
