Real Issues at Stake TF there was ever any question in the minds of students as to the ability of the student parliament to find things to discuss at its meetings, that question should be answered now and for ever after. The steering committee has lined up a program for the meeting tonight that is of sufficient importance and pop ular interest to bring to the meeting not only every student delegate on the campus but many spectators. And on the action taken by the parliament on one proposal of the steering com mittee rests the future of student government on this campus. We refer to the proposal to make the student parliament a legis lative body within a year. It should be evident to anyone that the parliament without legislative power does not belong in the scheme of government. Without this power it is in no sense an agent of government. But give it the right to legislate and immediately there is cre ated an efficient representative body for the transaction of stu dent business. If opposition does form to the proposed resolution of the steering committee, it will undoubtedly spring from the minds of those who fear that the granting of real power to the parlia ment will result In the destruction of efficient student govern ment. The fallacy of this contention is obvious enough if it is taken into consideration that the function of the parliament should be the determination of general policy and not of detailed administration. The students should certainly have it in their power to out line the course their government should take. To deny this is to admit that the present system is autocratic and that the autocracy should be perpetuated. The present system being of this nature, it is oniy a logical stop that a more democratic system be instituted at once. The year’s limit for the taking of legislative power by the parliament is not too short. If the old system can be rooted out and a suitable new plan prepared at once, the change should then come as soon as conveniently pos sible. In any case, the parliament should definitely state its intentions tonight. France Faces Left 'T'HE assassination of the president of France may not mean x much to some University students. The loss of 75-year-old Paul Doumer, militant friend of French war veterans, is less significant to us than are the results of the Sunday elections. Herriot, strong man of the “left” factions, probably will form the new cabinet. A new regime looms on the horizon. With the entry of the radical socialist left center coalition the world may expect a more reasonable, more cooperative attitude in French diplomacy at Geneva from now on, and at Lausanne next month, oven accepting the fact that French pol icy changes slowly. The stolid insistence of Tardieu upon "security" has blasted the brilliant hopes we held last February for the Geneva con ference. Yet Herriot may redeem something from the mass, He favors peaco, reductions of arms, conciliation. The election of Albert Lebrun to the presidency by the senate and chamber of deputies also is less important and less interest ing to us than the high hope we hold that the spirit behind the great liberal victory of Sunday may be more Ilian a change of personalities. Can it mean a deep-rooted dissatisfaction of the French people with the isolationist policies of the conservatives and rightists? Does it portend a return to the cordial relations of better days? Does it mean a revival of Driand's doctrines of peace and good will? If France were to forget for a moment her hatred of Ger many, her greed for control of the Danubian basin, her disas trous stubbornness in the matter of arms and “security,” the world would gain greatly by it, and France along with the rest of us. The wolf of economic disaster is at last at her door. Lets be good fellows about it. We’re all caught in the same economic tornado. United we stand, divided we fall -the United States of the World. Portland seems to be blocking out its population. There's the 400. the Committee of 50, the Committee of 500. the to.ooo unemployed, the 100,000 school children, and the several dozen newspapermen who keep track of all the others. The Portland police towed an uverparked car to their garage, where the owner redeemed it. But lie paid the bill w ith a lead dollar. There ought to be a law. Or maybe it'- just the de pression.' By V. H. Hoi Flowing constantly from the pens of writers today are millions upon millions of words which will soon go to the presses and be pre sented to the reading public as mpdern books. Presses forever whirringly produce second, third, fourth, fifth, and many more edi tions of works that are to be pur chased and absorbed by those who still hope to "catch up.” When we pick up a book it may be only one that has been emitted along with this accellerating pro duction, yet it may be one that stands out from all others as a masterpiece and a creative piece' of art with potential powers of j influence and impression. Perhaps j we will read this book. As soon as we have done so it will melt in our memory and shift about so that its completeness has been re grettably diffused. As more time elapses its outline, its unity, breaks down more and more until we -can claim only a handful of impressions or a few clear points which, if we are lucky, will emerge out of that fog-like haziness. This is true with most books, speaking in a general way. And, unless the book in question will gracefully stand a second reading, it will remain just as obscure. One cannot re-read all the great books in the world, and this is the lamentable part of it. A new book is a new friend that must be watched closely and analyzed as relationships become more inti mate. All must be taken from it upon short notice. When we discuss a book we mu3t build our criticisms upon a general impression and out of our memory of the high places. We can never feel definitely certain that our judgments are accurate. Like the reviewer, we check back for another glimpse of what we so vaguely remember if for no other reason than to ease our con science.

W e've said good-bye to flannels and wanning pane — thanks to modern slcanwheated homes, closed cars and well-heated schools. However, a lot of folks still think that cool weather makes it necessary to eat heavy foods. • But a change is taking place here too. More people -'\ cry day are enjoying crisp, ready-to-serve cereals like Kellogg's Corn Flukes. And what a delightful difference it makes! Meals as crisp as summer itself! Delicious ami healthful.

Faville Takes Finance Lesson From Policeman Dean David E. Faville of the school of business administration took a succinct lesson in finance from Police Judge R. S. Bryson yesterday. For neglecting to have all four wheels of his motor car solidly planted in the gutter, the dean was made the recipient of what in police parlance is known as a “ticket.” The recorder made known to the offender that no provision of the city code nor the state mo tor vehicle law permitted parking one wheel on the sidewalk.
