Let’s Have a Debater
TTTE'RE looking for a man to accept a challenge.
If a Japanese or American student will come forward
today to accept the challenge of a Chinese student for a debate
on the Manchurian question, the campus will be able to hear
both sides of the dispute ably presented, and then join in an open
forum to discuss the national policies brought to light.
It will be a debate well worth hearing, but it can t be held
by only one man, the Chinese student who offers today in a letter
to the Emerald to present his country’s stand. We need an
opponent.
Wu Tang, the challenger, is competent to speak on China's
stand. Last Saturday in Portland he faced Hirosi Acino, Japa
nese consul in that city, and debated the Sino-Japanese conflict
ably before students attending an international affairs confer
ence. He will do the same here for the whole campus if some
one will accept his challenge.
The International House on the campus, of which Wu Tang
is a resident, is to be commended on its members’ initiative in
furthering the education of University students on world prob
lems. The house's Russian program earlier this term was an
excellent beginning. The Chinese member’s proposal now is a
fine second step.
Let’s have an acceptance to his challenge.
Christmas Revels—Let’s Go
17 ALL-TERM exams will be forgotten, students and faculty
members will forego classroom formalities and really get
acquainted, and everyone will have a good time. When? Why,
Saturday, December 12, the night of the first all-campus, no-date
Christmas Revels.
The informal get-together will be the first during a regular
University session, although the idea of a student-faculty party
has long been a feature of Eugene summer terms. The tennis
courts by the old library are the scenes of those affairs, When
faculty members cast aside their austerity and students their
classroom reserve to have a mutual good time.
The Christmas Revels committee students and faculty work
ing on a 50-50 basis is planning all sorts of entertainment.
There will be dancing, singing, comic features, a Christmas tree,
in short, everything' needed to make the evening a success.
We hope this year's Christmas Revels will inaugurate a series
of the get-togethers.
f
Mr. Average Man Thinks
Well, the order of the o muscle
men did their duty by the poor
culprits haled to the library steps
yesterday. One could hardly re
press a smile (lese mujesty) as the
University clothed and fed boys
solemnly conferred on the number
of paddle strokes due each victim.
Again the faces of the onlookers
must have twitched as the differ
ent theories of how to paddle the
hardest without serious injury
were practically applied.
As for the freshmen, they are
present through lack of will to dis
obey the summons or because they
want the regard of their fraternity
brothers. If the freshman class
wants to rebel against something
why don't they tell the order of the
o where to go?

For A. Maxwell Clark, editor of
the U. C. L. A. Bruin, student pa
per of the University of California
at Los Angeles, three cheers are
in order. Mr. Clark's editorial on
the decadence of intercollegiate
football in a late issue of the Bruin
is the first any college editor on
the coast has printed.
Clark writes what everyone, who
has cared to. has discovered: that
every college on the Pacific coast
either pays its football players or
uses various methods of enticing
good players to enroll. The truth
probably is that every major Uni
versity amPcollege in^the country,
wUh^one'or t wo exceptions callows
both subsidaLion and recruiting.''

Let’s give a hand to t tie efficient
manner in Which the library de
partments of the University are
carrying on despite reduced ap
propriations from the state. Both
i reserve and main libe offer every
assistance to the student seeking
information. The reserve system
allows everyone an equal chance
at the best material on any one
subject.
* * #
Wonder what's inside that large
window-less building southeast of
Condon library? Somebody said it
was a museum, built partly by stu
dent subscription. The searchlight
effect on the east side at night is
rather striking bid buildings are
not usually built at tremendous ex
pense just to ornament the land
scape. Let's have an open house
and an inspection. There might be
valuable hidden treasure inside.

all reports, the trip has been a tre

honor. Tritely repeating what lias

that such a gigantic welcome

LET’S DEBATE WAR
To the Editor:
I had great pleasure in reading
your editorial in Thursday’s Em
erald. I agree with you that in
telligent editorial leadership is
needed to secure a peaceful settle
ment in this Manchurian crisis. It
seems to me, however, that news
papers, as instruments for mold
ing public opinion, have certain
drawbacks in that the readers can
hardly hear two sides of a case at
the same time; and neither can
they ask specific questions con
cerning a controversy.
It is my belief, therefore, a pub
lic campus debate on a disputed
question, such as Manchuria, will
help create a better understanding
by the students at large, as well
as arouse their academic interest
in international affairs. My no
tion in this regard is approved by
some faculty members, notably
Dean Rebec of the graduate school.
He attended, recently, the Stu
dents’ Conference on International
Affairs, held at Reed college, and
was impressed by its open forum.
As a Chinese student, I feel
rather anxious to participate in a
debate concerning the Manchurian
question, should I receive a chal
lenge from a Japanese student in
particular, or any of my American
schoolmates in general. Although
this term is drawing to an end, a
debate may still be possibly ar
ranged to take place sometime
next week in case permission is
obtainable from the administra
tion.
Did not you, Mr. Editor, assert
in your editorial that no one seems
to know the rights of China and ,
Japan in Manchuria ? We will;
never know the real situation in
the Far East if we do not try some
means of finding it out. May I, j
then, ask if you would take suffi
cient interest to sponsor or sup
port a public debate on the Man
churian problem, to be held on the
campus some time next week?
Yours sincerely,
WU TANG
NO CENSORSHIP
To the Editor:
Even a “constant reader” can
only stand so much. I won't even
murmur when you spell my name
wrong, or give me a bum steer on
“Ford movie” dates, or make me
weep over your humor columns,
but, please, editor, please forgive
me for kicking when you run edi
torials such as “Newspaper Lead
ership Needed,” as you did on
Thursday.
“I’ll be charitable and not say
much about your recommendation
of “communism or war” as a cure
all for battle-scarred China; such
a short-sighted comment doesn’t
even justify a reply.
But when you say "The liberal
splashing of war stories over the
front pages . . . can promote the
belligerence of the two countries
involved more than any other
thing,” I wax sarcastic. Would
your charming editorial writer ad
vocate a hush hush policy on the
basis of “see no evil, do no evil?”
Since when has suppression of
news and playing down of big
stories been conducive to interna
tional peace? If the New York
American or the Portland News
Telegram shoved the Manchurian
stories back among the classified
ads, would that help the slaughter
in Asia?
As a, student of journalism I
feel that it is imperative that all
due publicity be given to the pres
ent condition in Manchuria. Only
through that means can public
opinion be crystalized (as it has
been t to the point where cessation
of warfare is demanded. And it is
news! Secret diplomacy and cen
sored news both belong to the dark
ages. The quickest way to stop a
bad thing is to throw light on it.
Let us hope that the editorial
opinion reflected yesterday does
not reflect the policy of the editor
in the conduct of the Emerald.
Stephen B. Kahn.
