The Oregon Daily Emerald, official student publication of the University of Oregon, Eugene, issued daily except .Sunday and Monday during the college year. Entered in the postoffice at Eugene, Oregon, as second-class matter. Subscription rates, $2.50 a year. The Emerald's Program for Oregon THESE are the constructive developments which the Emerald hopes to inntitute and helji maintain at the University of Oreaon: 1. Advance educational Ideals. 2. Promote Intellectual achievements. 3. Reorganize the student government structure. (a) Establish a student parliament In an advisory capacity, (b) Establish a faculty legislative committee. <1. Advocate n well-balanced athletic program. 8. Promote minor sports. 8. Subordinate extra-curfieular activities to academic attain ments. 7. Maintain the Emerald on its present status as a representa tive college da’ly. The American people cannot be too careful in guarding the freedom of speech and of the press against curtailment as to the discussipn of public affairs and the character and conduct' of public men. —Carl Schurz. THE DARK AGES OF ’33 SOME of o\ir eminent law-makers are doing their utmost to revive the dark ages. Yesterday there arrived from Salem dispatches stating that the ways and means committee of the legislature had recommended that Chancellor Kerr's salary be . reduced 50 per cent. In the same story it also was declared that the national guard appropriations were to sustain a tremendous reduction of $12,554, the budget tot the state’s private army being cut from $198,937 way down to $186,383. It does seem a bitter shame that the national guard will lose $12,554. This deplorable fact ap pears even more tragic when one realizes that the higher educational system has suffered a cut of only $1,107,000. This probably will mean that the guardsmen at their annual vacation at Fort Stevens this summer, where they inhale the salt air for two weeks at the state's expense, will have to go easy on the shells and ammunition they shoot out to sea at imaginary targets. What a pity tHis is! And just think the guard could play with just as much ammunition as ever if only a couple of more college professors were fired! But the legislature is going to fix everything. It is going to try to cut the chancellor's salary in half. It is going to ask the man who holds supreme command over the state's educational institutions to work for $6,000. Why, at $12,000, he actually was receiving more money than some of the na tional guard generals. Senator Woodward even had the audacity to suggest that the national guard reductions were not in line with those sustained by other departments and that the militia's appropriation should be cut to $150,000. (We do not know Senator Woodward personally, but, we would like to shake his hand.) Historians say that the dark ages was that period prior to the revival of learning, when armed men rode about lawlessly and conflict was at a maximum and intelligence at a minimum. Now the ways and means committee recom mends cutting the salary of the chief of higher education in half, and knocks 12,554 whole dollars off the national guard's appropriations. We hope the historians were right when they said the durk ages were past. SACKIFUK HOI KS, KATHK'K THAN KOOKS '"INHERE lias been some criticism come to our ears recently directed at the reserve libraries for closing on Friday and Saturday afternoons at 5 o’clock The protest lias been a mild one and from students who least need such week-end study. But anxious to protect the interests of those who do not take part in the moderate whoopie that goes on each week-end, we decided to do something about it. So we called up M. H. Douglass, librarian, to find out exactly why it was necessary to make such curtailment in library hours. He informs us that, only a few students were taking advantage of Friday and Saturday nights rot- study, and that the pro-ratio cost of keeping open for these tew w,»s entirely too high. Under the present arrangement, the reserve lio raries are open Monday to Thursday from 7:45 -t in. to 10.00 p m. Friday and Saturday from 7.lb a. m. to 5:00 p. m. and on Sundays from 3:00 to 9:00 p. m. This totals 81V2 hours a week that the reserve libraries are open, or a little more than 11 hours a day on the average. This seems to be a .long enough time to permit even the most ambitious student to prepare his weekly lessons. Since the slashing of the budget makes general retrenchment necessary, we feel that economy of this nature Is more desirable than cuts in the lib rary facilities proper. The library could possibly be kept open if less money was spent on new books and periodicals, but reduction of the amount spent on these items would be very unfortunate. Already budget slashes have made necessary the discontinuance of many little used items, and a large reduction in the amount spent for current books. Since the library is the very foundation of any university, the Emerald would favor the further cutting of hours, if such was found neces sary, for the continuance of the high standard of the Oregon library. WE SALl TE MB. REINHART ANIJ HIS TEAM QPORTS for sports' sake at last has been achieved ^ at Oregon, and one cannot help but admire Billy Reinhart for the manner in which the long sought Utopia was attained. No longer does basketball receive the appropria tions it used to. It now functions for an entire season on approximately half as much money as it obtained three years ago. The players travel as do other mortals in this day and age in tourist cars. Nor do they care that the pullmans in which the football men ride are closed to them. They play with old basketballs, balls that are inflated and deflated before and after each prac tice to keep them from bursting their seams. They are wearing old jerseys. The sweaters which they wear were purchased by the coach, out of a salary thac already has sustained a healthy reduction. Yet, there is not one word of complaint from the players. There is even less from the coach. They go about their business Just as they did in the old days. The boys are loyal to Bill Reinhart and he is equally as loyal to them. Oregon's men are smaller than those of any other conference school. But their courage is as great and their spirit is greater. The University’s basketball team may lose many games this year, some of them by mountainous scores, but its morale never will fail. For Oregon’s basketball team is built on a sound foundation and it is coached by a man who makes a business of understanding boys. He does not mind riding in tourist cars with his players and they do not mind eating 25 cent meals with him. Long have we sought for sports for sports’ sake, and it appears as if Billy Reinhart, by his splendid cooperation and fine knowledge of boys and basket ball, had achieved the Utopia. MIND ABOVE MATTER TAR. ALEXANDER MEIKLEJOHN, a profound thinker and scholar, has declared the univer sity should be a place of the mind, and not a train ing school, as it is at present. The latter part of his statement is open to controversy, but there is no denying the veracity of the introduction to his | remark. I Dr. Meiklejohn says thinking should be stimu lated for two reasons. “First, it is pleasant. Sec ond, it gives insight and perspective.’’ How true he is. The real thinker is so in the minority today that those who associate with him realize a vicari ous pleasure from his opinions and ideas. Long a foe of technical training in universities, Dr. Meiklejohn frequently has declared that speci alization is an enemy of education. Ami he is right. We must make a college degree a reward for intelligence and not for durability. Let tech nical courses be confined to schools for that pur pose. A university must be an institution where people are encouraged to think. The world today needs thought and it looks to its universities to sup ply the demand. We heartily agree with a prediction made sev eral years ago by Glenn Frank, and look forward to the eventful time when it will come true. Per haps our grandchildren will reap its benefits— “I believe that the curriculum as we know it must go. A hundred years from now 1 suspect that little will be left of the rigidly departmentalized college that teaches a variety of separate studies.” Henry Sehaldach, California gridiron hero, has decided to forsake professional football for a career in law. What's the world coming to, anyway? Doesn't a man's education get him anywhere? The average child in United States public schools received 10.8 days more instruction in 1030 than did a child in 1920. North Carolina has improved approximately 5,000 miles of highways in the past 18 months. r——-1 On Other Campuses Student Subsidy 'T'HERE is at present in operation in Germai v a type of student subsidy which seems very ci ri . ous to those who are familiar with the English I and American types of universities. In short, under this system a needy student receives free tuition at the state universities, and | m addition lie is eligible for appreciable discount at the student restaurants. The basis of this system is the opinion prevalent in Germany that as many I people as possible should be educated. To this end. j lhe various states spend large sums in the educa I Hon of poorer students who without assistance could not possibly attend at the universities. The English system of university training re | serves the rights of education to the "best stu dents," referring to both a high intellectual stan | 'lard and financial independence during their at | tendance at the various colleges. To expand the German system into England would be a task | burdened with almost insurmountable difficulties. It is applicable, however, to the American type of higher education which the Canadian universities in general follow. Expansion cl' this type in the Canadian univer sities would be especially beneficial to a young | country such as we live m. Every force possible lor its development should bo harnassed in the 1 endeavor to place Canada on a high sphere of in ternational relations and national intellectual mde ■ pcndcucc.—McGill Daily. Excelsior! - - • By KEN FERGUSON A Message to Garcia This is one of a fcrics of articles to which outstanding members of Oregon's higher educational system arc contributing. Another will be published in the next issue of the fibitrald. By DONALD M. ERB (Professor of Economics) A T such a time as this, the world is treated to the gratuitous prescriptions of a whole horde of voluntary diagnosticians. When a person is ailing, he may receive the unsolicited advice of well meaning friends who tell him what the family did for brother Zeke or sister Carrie when they felt some what the same way and how Zeke and Carrie responded to the treat ment. But when an ailing person develops a fever of 104 or lapses into coma or goes into convulsions or develops other alarming and perplexing symptoms, the ama teur and free advice is likely to stop, and a known expert is called in. Moreover, long before this, the patient has probably sought out the respected expert on his own initiative and acted with more or less promptness on his recommen dations. And it is also true that we do not assume that an expert bridge builder is a qualified can cer specialist, nor a wizard at electricity a sure solver of digest ive difficulties, nor a renowned banker a genius at perking up the ductless glands. In other words, ! when our bodies get out of fix, we : usually go to a man in whom we j have confidence as a fixer of bod ; ies and not to someone else, no j matter how skillful he may be, who is best at fixing rediscount rates or j senile storage batteries or dams | that won't dam. | But when the body group be [ comes ill. how different is the at titude. Then anyone who has been able to get a fanfare of publicity j is hailed with enthusiasm as the herald of a promising cure, wheth t cr the publicity is based on a j catchword or on a record of sound : achievement. People . intelligent j enough to shun a mechanic's ad vice in a case of anemia will give ! solemn attention to an inventor's remarks on the shortcomings of jour currency system. And, strange [ ly, the more acute becomes the so ' cial disease, the more ready be comes the public to listen to! quacks. During what were then regarded as the very hard times of 1920 to 1923. (what a corrective i is perspective), there was a del uge of quack remedies ranging | from Mr. Ford's and Mr. Edison's monetary nostrums to the Ford ney-MeCumber tariff. Now we have tiie eminent Idaho squire, Mr. • Borah, preaching free silver andj 1933 Bryanism, with offstage | noises of enthusiasm furnished by j ; the Nevada and Utah and other senators who have large silver in terests. Mr. Patman wants flat j money to pay the soldiers' bonus, | 1 there are proposals for more cur- j rency inflation to pay unemploy-' mcnt relief, some want credit or j 1 currency inflation as a general stimulant even thoug. like many .stimulants, it is habit forming. And. of course, we have the Tech nocrats. * * « At most technocracy is half true. Although Mr. Scott and his associates have been accused of inaccuracy and rashness in their, figures on technological unemploy ment they have served to drama tize a development which is of g r e at social importance even though it is at least one hundred and fifty years old. With an ad vancing state of industrial meth od" ■ nv.l machine invcu'iou. . the I di placement and continual slnft ing of man power becomes a per manent problem of great social seriousness. The technocrats talk as though the men displaced by a machine would never find any jobs anywhere, unless perhaps part time jobs, and that is not true in most cases; but that an unem ployed group, not necessarily com posed of the same individuals all of the time, is now a permanent part of our industrial picture is undoubtedly true and something should be done to save that group from being victimized. When the technocrats enter the field of value and price, however, they take on the characteristics of the quack. They attack the gold standard because of its instability, the value of a monetary unit of gold varying inversely to the gen eral price level, and then propose a substitute which would be infin itely less stable. They have even said they would abolish money al together, but that is nonsense in asmuch as they specifically in vent a new money to be known as "energy units.” Prices, then, would be given in terms of energy units. And what are these energy units ? They are hybrid units composed of ergs, B. T. U.’s, kil owatt hours, and so on, all reduced by some common denominator to a universally applicable form. But the technocrats do not presuppose a static condition of the mechani cal arts; in fact, they look for in vention and labor replacement to go on at an accelerating rate, so that clearly the meaning of an en ergy unit for purposes of exchange, value, and price would be an un stable thing. Further, if prices were fixed in terms of energy units, the demand factor in value determination would be neglected entirely. What things are worth depends quite as much on how badly people want them as on how much it costs to produce them. If a technocrat dictatorship should be established and prices in energy units should be true, with penal ties for offering or taking more or less than the fixed price and all » that sort of thing, either there would follow the most elaborate system of bootlegging, and wink ing by officials, that the world has ever seen, or else there would be a revolution. V *i* , »l' Why do we listen to such quack ery? First, ills of the social body are impossible to study in con trolled isolation. Further, there has been so much1 talk of econom ics being just, common sense that all the emphasis has come to be placed on the common phase and none on the sense. Among other reasons is the unfortunate fact that many of the men who are our nearest approach to recognized ex perts in the field of social ills have disagreed bitterly among them selves, and some of the more pub licized of them have had their pre scriptions and diagnoses exposed as wrong. They have sounded quite like a group of medicos or psychiatrists at a murder trial in which insanity is urged as a de fense. promenade by carol hurlburt All those languid ladies who trail notoriously down the pages of history have skins the whiteness of snow drops, alabaster, or living marble. * * * That, dear reader, was a mis take. Or perhaps the author merely lied. It is only once in a wan blue moon that you will see a truly white skin. Most skins are tinted with green, with red. pink, gold, or with cream. Cosmestics should be chosen accordingly. # # The technique of make-up is.in deed a gentle art. The method by which you determine the color of your skin is to bind white around your hair, contrasting the white with your skin. Most blondes have skin contain ing a good deal of gold pigment and should wear a creamy powder tinged with yellow. Their reds should be of the orange type . . . very orange when they are tan and of an orangy pink when they are not. Elsie Burke has a skin which Contemporary Opinion The Family Doctor 1 \R. BERNARD Sachs, who be came president of the Now York Academy of Medicine on Thursday evening, took that occa sion to file a protest against the passion for specialization in medi cine which will have the indorse ment of every intelligent layman. Dr. Sachs deplored the general practitioner's development in re cent years of something like an inferiority complex and said: "The general medical diagnostician, the man with broad vision, with calm judgment, with the human touch the family physician—with the full appreciation of the needs of the individual under the present strain of social and economic stress, is sorely needed," "Changes in medical practice,” says the Lowell report on medical education, “have not and can not modify the essential unit of medi cal service and training, which is the patient." And therefore un duly sensitive human being who is not only under inspection. a ■uatch or a boiler might be, but who has '.he doctor under as close and critical examination as the doctor has him. What the head of a family wants of a doctor is a thoroughly trust worthy friend who will take the members of the family under his unremitting care when they need it, and not an expert inspec tor who will refer each of their separate ailments to a different high-priced stranger for imper sonal treatment. Forty per cent of the graduates of medical colleges now become specialists, and half of these have no experience in general medical practice. The reason for this, as the Lowell report points out, is that specialization is easier an 1 more profitable. Such views as Dr. Sachs has expressed have the support of all the leading medical organizations in the country; but it is the laity that has to convince the family doctor that these are its sentiments if the propaganda for impersonal medical care is to be silenced and if the best men are to be attracted to general practice.—New York Heiald-Tn bune. 4 exemplifies the loveliest of this type. * * * In tanning the skin, the sun adds a lot of yellow. Most women use a darker powder than they are tan, but never think of adding the corresponding quota of yellow. * * * You have often heard of the bru nette with an olive skin. Analyze the term "olive,” and it means "green." The typical Latin has this complexion with the greenish j cast, which can be startlingly exot- I ic, as in the case of Sally Roul stone, when complemented with deep wine red lipstick and rouge containing lots of blue. * * * Then there is the brunette with j the golden skin, such as Mary Jean j Warner's, similar to that of the blonde, only darker. She should wear cosmetics that verge on fla mingo ... a bright red slightly shaded with yellow. * * * A creamy skin, like Anne Frank's, contains a small amount of yellow, but such a small amount as to be negligible. This type should use pink make-up that is slightly diffused with rose. The brunette who has a creamy skin like Janet Howard’s exactly matching rachel powder takes a clear red. * * * Rose is for a pink and white skin like Anne Housnell’s, while a deeper rose (which means more blue) is for the highly colored out door type like Eleanor Barker. The cream-white Irish type, as seen in Mrs. Frank Kistner, takes a brighter pastel edition of this same rose. A cosmetic expert can almost tell a locale by the type or amount of make-up worn by the inhabi tants.

But it would not be difficult to develop a major enthusiasm for Cornelia Stratton Parker's “Ger man Summer.” Mrs. Parker confesses 45 years. Her daughter June is (or was) 15. The two saw a German faltboot (folding boat) and didn’t come to earth for several hundred delight ful pages. Happily, those who read about the paddlings of the Par kers won't come to earth either, until the end of “German Sum mer.” The idea of the faltboot is gay—■ thousands of young Germans of ' both sexes, chiefly clad in swim ; ming apparel, sailing the summer through in tiny (but substantial) boats that may be taken apart and wheeled along like a baby carriage. All summer the double-ended pad dles flash throughout Teutonic Europe; from a high bridge the passing of faltboots look like bee tles with bright, silver-plated legs. Mrs. Parker writes gayly of what they paddled by. She cares more for untouristed inns than for palaces, she has no false pride, and many amusing prejudices. Down the Danube, the Lahn, the Weser, the Drau and some oth ers, the reader goes. He lives like a young German; indeed, he almost feels as if he had had the exercise! * * * Helen Worden's "The Real New York” is only a fifth cousin to “German Summer," but there is a relationship after all. "The Real New York" is a guidebook to "in side New York”—from it you can learn where to buy Greek candies and where to get your hair cut; where Little Turkey (and all the other "Littles") may be found; who sells olives in garlic, who puts monograms on your pajamas, and where the salesrooms are with the uncensored French records. Miss Worden's book might have een a terrific bore had she tried to be clever in every item. And she didn't although she is by no means dull. The idea is simply to jam a great deal of information about New York into a book that is in tended as a mine of information instead of entertainment. Two or three things are espe cially intelligent. The eating plac es mentioned are for the most part modestly priced establishments. Miss \\ orden also has been kind enough to say w'ho lives in the es pecially attractive houses she pass es. * * * There have been many books on China this year, novels as well as “serious" works, and J. p. o. Bland, with "China, the Pity of It." adds an informed and valua ble contribution to the literature of this country. His viewpoint is that of the cul tivated Briton, and his book has one thing many others lack, be cause it is one of the few that ar rives at a definite conclusion. Mr. Bland believes only a social reorganization will give permanent aid to China, and that the most im portant step is reconciling "the divergent far eastern policies and interests of the United States and Japan."

The issue is mimeographed by a local establishment, which employs Mr. Wilson as editor, business man ager, graduate manager, and staff. Mr. Wilson was seen at an eariy hour last night covering the pre paration of a pot roast at the Kappa Alpha Theta house. One of his best editorial gems is a ^ brief and stirring masterpiece de- ’ scribing in detail the mashing of potatoes at the Minnesota Rotary club.. * « * This observation came forth from the young editor when ques tioned by admiring interviewers: “All I can say is that I am for the freedom of the press. Last week a certain cook used salt in stead of sugar in one of her fa mous chocolate cakes. But I ex posed her! The Kitchen tells of all the food that's fit to eat, and also includes that which is served in the sorority houses." * * * i Dr. Taylor, psych professor of | great renown, announces that stu dents who wish may take the en trance psychology test over again to determine their progress.
