LINCOLN MARCHED TO MUSIC A PERSON who signs himself Chester E. Flory, a name which does not appear among the records of University students, has addressed a communication to the editor of the Emerald. There in Mr. Flory quotes one.of the eminent Albert Ein stein’s outbursts against militarism. Similar notes, presumably written by the same Mr." Flory, have been placed at various strategic points on the cam pus. The communication opens witli Mr. Einstein’s quotation. Thereafter follow remarks by Mr. Flory which imply that he agrees entirely and completely with his noted contemporary. All of which is very commendable. That we should have one in our midst whose ideas coincide so harmoniously with those of the famous Albert Einstein is indeed grati fying. Mr. Flory bases the strength Of his letter on the fact that he cites so noted a person as Albert Ein stein. He says: "Thus speaks a great thipker,” meaning, of course, Mr. Einstein. The fact that Mr. Einstein derides the actions of such fairly well known people as Napoleon Bonaparte, Abraham Lincoln, Julius Caesar, George Washington, Alex ander Hamilton, Oliver Cromwell, Theodore Roose velt, and Benito Mussolini is indeed lamentable. It weakens Mr. Flory s none-too-strong argument. In part, Mr. Einstein says: “ . . . . The man who enjoys marching in line and file to the strains of music falls below my contempt; he received his great brain by mistake. . . .” Remarks of a simi lar nature follow until the great scientist reaches the end of his bristling discourse. Abraham Lincoln was a young trooper in the Blackhawk Indian war. Presumably the Great Emancipator was called upon to march to the air of martial music. This places him in the class of men that falls below Mr. Einstein's contempt, and also (presumably i that of Mr. Flory That Mr. Flory presumably should hold Abraham Lincoln in con tempt is too bad. Mr. Lincoln is quite a figure in this nation's history. So are Hamilton. Washing ton, Lee, Davis, Roosevelt (not Franklin, but Theo dore!, Hayes, Harrison, and others. That Mr. Ein stein holds them in contempt, and that Mr. Flory refers on to us Mr. Einstein's advocacy of such contempt is, as we have repeated, indeed unfor tunate. In concluding ms letter, Mr. r lory hsks: n mu place has the K. O. T. O. on a campus devoted to ‘higher education"."' He also might interrogate: “What place has football, student government, dances, social affairs, music, clubs and publications on a 'campus devoted to higher education' ?'" Cer tainly they are as much connected with higher education as it. O. T. C., so long as our country maintains an active army. Mr. Flory would be far more logical if lie asked: "Why war? Why armies?" We do not necessarily advocate the continuance of military training. We merely advise him to at tack militarism at its crux, and not at one of its many ramifications, the campus K. O. T. C. units. It also is to be wondered if Mr. Flory took into consideration Mr. Einstein's early life when he quoted the latter's passage against militarism. The following is from a brief biography of the famous scientist: "... The rough methods and self opinionated tone of his teachers, who for the most part had the military attitude of non-commissioned officers, irked his spirit. . . Thus, as a boy, Einstein was biased against the men who march for their country. Early prejudices, often little better than snap judgment, are difficult to sway. COL. HAYWARD STEPS ON THE GAS TT IS a grand and wonderful sight to see Colonel William L. Hayward, may his tribe increase, dash out from the sidelines to the aid of a stricken Oregon athlete. His vividly-colored necktie trail ing out behind him like the headband of a Roman charioteer, the Colonel moves to the rescue as speedily as some of the boys themselves move with the football. Not soon forgotten v, ill be an incident at Port land three weeks ago. Bill Morgan had been in jured when he dived for a Washington fumble, and Colonel Hayward went i ito high gear as he raced onto the field to give aid to the motionless player. A spectacled sports writer, high in the press-box, peared through his glasses at the galloping Hay ward. “Say, fellows,” he called. “They’re sending in a 10-second man to replace Morgan. See if you can get his number.” It was indeed a surprised reporter who found that the individual moving so rapidly below was the well-known and highly respected Colonel Hay ward, and not a blithe triple-threat halfback. Colonel Bill Hayward is a tradition here. For more than 29 years he has served Oregon athletic teams, and each year finds his popularity on ttie rise. No pernicious comment ever derides him; al ways is he liked; never is he in disfavor. Every time he races onto the field with the water bucket and smelling-salts, at least one Oregon grad says proudly, "Here comes Colonel Bill Hayward!” This winter Colonel Hayward will have com pleted three decades of service here. Appropriate to the occasion would be a campus-wide celebration, open to all Oregon alumni and ex-students. The Emerald is willing to assist in any such project, To those in charge, we address a message—“Get busy!” WRITE ’EM SHORT NEWSPAPER apace always is at a premium. To date the Emerald has received numerous letters, but the majority of them have been from 500 to 1,000 words in length. Because of space limitations, especially now in the heat of the elec tion and football campaigns, the communications should not exceed 500 words in length. All pre vious statements as to the length of letters are hereby summarily retracted. They should be as short as possible. Mr. Flory’s letter elsewhere on this page, under the “Safety Valve’’ heading, is a good example. Remember—the briefer your communication, the better its chance of being published. IL DUCE ON HERTS PREMIER BENITO MUSSOLINI, at a celebra tion of the 10th anniversary of fascism Sunday, made a plea for cancellation or reduction of the war debts owed to the United States. Whether his plea will receive much attention right in the cen ter of a national election is doubtful. On the other hand, one of the candidates may take it as a cue for making a statement of his policy as to debts. There are two ways of looking at the war debt problem: That of the theorist who looks at the con ditions under which the loans were made and that of the practical man who looks at the opportunities for collection. Some of the idealists who consider that the United States went into the war to win it for French and Italian irridentists who had as big a part in causing the war as the Germans, if not more, believe that the French and Italians should pay their obligations. Others of the same group feel that since the United States let themselves in for a war to aggrandize the Triple Entente and its allies, this country should continue its big-hearted ness and cancel the debts. Other supporters of cancellation or reduction are those who hold that the debts should be used as a rod to bring certain of the nations into line in the disarmament conference next February. The idea is that before the conference agreements should be j made with France and the other nations owing the United States money providing that if they meet j this country half way in carrying out disarmament, ! the debts will be reduced or cancelled. This idea looks good. If Uncle Sam is going to i continue to play Dutch uncle for Europe, he should j get something out of it. The easiest way to gain by cancelling or reducing debts is to cut appropria tions for armaments at the same time that Euro pean nations cut their military expenditures. Disarmament can be carried out safely only j through mutual action of all of the powers. If any j power refuses to co-operate, what instrument could be used to better advantage than the war debts. Mussolini predicted that the conference will be a j failure. He cited that France has refused Germany parity of armaments. He held this would force j Germany out of the league, should it occur again. Germany would undoubtedly be satisfied, for the present, with reduction of arms on the part of the allies, as prow led in the peace treaty. The United States, Italy, and several of the others of the for mer allies hi ve been in favor of reduction. It is believed that those holding out could be brought in to line should the United States use the “big stick" of war debts. There are those in this country who believe that ' using the debts as a "big stick" would be better than the dilly-dallying of the past with the result that they may never be collected, cancelled or re \ duped, but just written off the books. As a further step in the reorganization of the I conservatory of music at Rollins college, members of the conservatory faculty have been appointed to titles of academic rank for the first time in the history of the department.

So far it has not appeared on the re verse side, among the list of win ners. Alpha Chi Omega has the most repeats, with six notches to its credit. They broke into the win-column for the first time in 1919, and rang the bell for four straight years. After a four-year lapse from grace they came back again for two more wins between ’27 and ’29.

After twy or three years there will be no more room for winner’s names, so the Chi Omega , cup will be pensioned off and re turned to the donors.

Now, Greta may get away with it, although I once heard an army officer remark: I "She has no figure, no carriage. I | can’t see her attraction." Last night I called one of the IK. O. T.

What he said was far from flattering, but here it is: “The girls are delightful (Oh. yes: he has a good eye! t. but they don’t use their ankles when they walk: they are a little humped in the back: they don't hold their j heads up; they take steps that are too long; their stomachs hang for ward." It doesn't sound enticing, and he says that it looks worse. ft is this officer's pet conten tion that classes should be con ducted in the gentle art of walk ing and he judges a woman's beauty by her feet.

The latest evening shoes are salmon skin good for the Oregon salmon business." If you aren't already cognizant of the monk style shoe, you can recognize them by noting a flap of the leather which crosses over the instep to button on the side. * * * The new shoes are arrogant, smug. They are rounded off at the toe so that they resemble nothing in the world so much as a snub-nosed, self-sufficient Pe kinese. The new street pumps are of lizard, combined with kid. or else of suede combined with kid. Saw a fascinating pair of afternoon pumps in bronze kid and crepe trimmed with lustrous kid piping. Metallic gold and silver have re asserted themselves for evening wear. Metal combined with bro cade is provocative, and the most startling pair of evening slippers I’ve seen are of silver with very high rhinestone bejewelled heels. Kver hear of sparkling steps be fore ? As for our friends, the gentle men' 1 can't pretend to be any one so important nor so well versed as an army otftcei. and it is only out of the depths of my feminine intuition that I speak. This I know: the man who slouch es loses his air of command, his air of masculine authority, his air of self respect. 'Twould be hard to love a man who didn’t hold him self erect. # * * The latest thing out in men’s sports shoes is a brown buckskin, preferably with a plain toe and fashioned with a rubber sole and heel. Brown English wing tips are dress wear. As the women's shoes get less pointed, the men’s become more so. Point and counter-point! * * * We Select for Promenade: Caro line Hahn, because she hies us back to the days of Egypt’s splen dor with her evening sandals of silver kid, extreme as to design, cut away at the toe, high as to heel and glittering with brilliants.

Washington Bystander l\ By KIHKE SIMPSON YjWASHINGTON, D. C„ Oct. 24— (AP)—To what extent demo cratic activities in Pennsylvania represent any real hope of carry ing that historic stronghold of old 1 guard republicanism in November it would be hard to say. On the face of the record the idea of raiding a state still filled with memories of the days of Bo ies Penrose and where the influ | ence of “Uncle Andy” Mellon still is felt might appear fanciful. Within the memory of man Pennsylvania has never faltered in republican regularity but once. It did flop to Theodore Roosevelt in the three-way fight of 1912. And that 20-year-old fact no doubt is what dictated democratic strategy in summoning Senator George Norris from his Nebraska theater of prolonger republican irregularity to fire the democratic r|''HIS morning the Emerald again publishes three dif ferent opinions on the presi dential race. The sentiments of Julian Prescott, who supports Hoover: Carol Hurlburt. who advocates Roosevelt, and Parks Hitchcock, who supports Thom as. appear on page 1. Your opinions are also solicit ed. Anyone wishing to contrib ute articles on Hoover, Roose velt or Thomas, can do so by leaving them on the school of journalism board, in an envel ope. prior to 4 o'clock this af ternoon. The most outstanding stories will be published in to morrow's paper. The envelopes should be addressed to Dick Neuberger. editor of the Emer ald. national campaign opening guu m Pennsylvania. * * * If there is a man in public life today qualified to speak from ex perience about holding lightly the ties of party regularity, that man is Norris. Nobody remembers a time when he was completely regular. And if there is a large state which has a better record for republican regularity than Pennsylvania, the books do not show it. Offhand, Norris might appear the last man to “sic’1 on Pennsyl vania. Drafting Norris, however, is more understandable when it is re called that the state ran up some 444,000 votes for Theodore Roose velt in 1912 against 395,000 for Wilson and 273,000 for Taft; that Norris was an original Roosevelt man that year and that he was the original republican irregular to call for "another Roosevelt" this year. As the senator himself said in his address, Governor Roosevelt can carry Pennsylvania only if enough old line republicans vote for him to do the trick. There are not and never have been enough democrats and independents com bined in the state to accomplish it. The Norris address served as an introduction for Governor Roose velt's own campaign swing into Pennsylvania. In the early days of the 1928 campaign in which he figured so largely as convention manager of the Smith nomination boom, Roosevelt had a notion that a Pennsylvania miracle might happen. It didn't. President Hoover got the state by about a million votes, the biggest of all Pennsylvania re publican majorities. Yet Mr. Roosevelt was back again in his own interest this year, hammering at that citadel of republicanism. What is he doing to provide a probably vitally necessary repub lican majority from Philadelphia in November. Contemporary Opinion . . .

Rocke feller Jr., is indicative of a trend in the scholastic field which is be comihg more important. nong ana noiame nas oeen me service performed by the Cite Universite in Paris as a center where students from the far ends of the globe come into contact with one another for an i nter change of opinions and experienc es. The facilities of such a center are not restricted to those of am ple means, evidence of which is found in hostels where board and lodging is only $15 a month. In all parts of the world the Y. M. C. A. and the Y. W. C. A. have established international branches by which visitors and native stu dents are brought together for in terchange of ideas. Such organi zations as “The Committee on Friendly Relations Among Foreign Students,” “The Academic For eign Bureau” of Hamburg, Ger many, “The Institute of Interna tional Education,” “The American International College,” “The Ital ian University Organization” and numerous similar societies are helping students the world over to form friendly relations. Then, of course, there is the well established movement in the line of traveling scholarships, student exchanges and other like organi z a t i o n s. Societies have been formed in some countries for the purpose of meeting, welcoming and entertaining student visitors. The practice is now being carried on even among boys from elemen tary schools—and successfully, too. Indeed, much might be writ ten on this ever-growing move ment among students whose every step is toward international fra ternity and good feeling. Despite wars, tariff barriers, in ternational complications which may arise, there is among the brotherhood of students who en joy one another’s hospitality a mounting good will, a reaching out of “hands across the sea." With the growth of cultural relations between nations, this reciprocity will continue to increase. Indeed, this is ope of the more effective means through which a true in ternationality of feeling may be obtained. It is the youth of the world who have most to gain from true in ternationalism. Through their in numerable societies and institu tions there should result among scholars a unity of feeling which will reach out and imbue other cit izens of the nations with this broader outlook—an outlook which must be a fundamental factor in dissolving international strife and misunderstanding.—Christian Sci ence Monitor.
