The Oregon Dally Emerald, official student publication of
the University of Oregon, Eugene, issued daily except Sunday
and Monday during thd college year. Entered in the postoffice
at Eugene, Oregon, as second-class matter. Subscription rates,
,$2.50 a year.
The Emerald’s Creed for Oregon
“ . . . . There is always the human temptation to
forget that the erection of buildings, the formulation of
new curricula, the expansion of departments, the crea
tion of new functions, and similar routine duties of
the administration are but means to an end. There is
always a glowing sense of satisfaction in the natural
impulse for expansion. This frequently leads to regard
ing achievements as ends in themselves, whereas the
truth is that these various appearances of growth and
achievement can be justified only in so far as they
make substantial contribution to the ultimate objec
tives of education .... providing adequate spiritual
and intellectual training for youth of today—the citi
zenship of tomorrow. . . .
“ . . . . The University should be a place where
classroom experiences and faculty contacts should stimu
late and train youth for the most effective use of all
the resources with which nature has endowed them. Dif
ficult and challenging problems, typical of the life
and world in which they are to live, must he given
them to solve. They must be taught under the expert
supervision of instructors to approach the solution of
these problems in a workmanlike way, with u dis
ciplined intellect, with a. reaspnable command of the
techniques that r re involved, with a high sense of in
tellectual adventure, and with a genuine devotion to the
ideals of intellectual integrity. . . .”—From the Biennial
Report of the University* of Oregon for 1931-32.
The American people cannot be too careful in
guarding the freedom of speech and of the press
against curtailment as to the discusst&n of public
affairs ami the character and conduct of public
men. —Carl Sehurs.
i WHY NOT TO REDUCE SALARIES
THOSE who strive to balance the budget and
build bridges and courthouses by slashing
teachers’ salaries could put their time to no better
use than reading the following excerpts from the
biennial report of the University of Oregon for
1931-32. It appears in the recent bulletin of the
state board of higher education:
“. . . The administration always has been on
the look-out for young and promising scholars for
faculty members. With our low faculty salary
scale it is impossible to attract mature men who
possess both sound scholarship and the divine spark
of spiritual leadership from established institutions.
Our salary scale is far too low to permit such ac
tivity ...”
Those words were penned by Dr. Arnold Ben
nett Hall before he resigned as president of Oregon
to become chairman of the Brookings institution.
When Dr. Hall wrote them, the drastic salary cut
recently imposed upon our faculty had not yet been
levied. What would he write today? Even then
he admitted the futility of attempting to add out
standing educators to the University staff. Does
it seem logical that we can retain those wc have
if further reductions are enforced?
The present session of the legislature is con
fronted with bills and committee reports that
threaten to impose additional cuts upon faculty
salaries. Huge reductions loom in higher learning
appropriations, and it lias been assumed that the
greater part of these slashes must he achieved by
trimming the wage scale for educators. It requires
no expert to determine the fallacy of that perspec
tive.
Personnel is the most important requisite of any
educational system, and that of Oregon is not an
exception. Faculty salaries already have been cut
to the bone. Further reductions will be disastrous,
anil they must be avoided.
The Emerald has pointed to this fact on numer
ous occasions in the past. It will continue to do
so until ilefinite action is taken in one direction or
the other. Should it deplorably come to pass that
the professorial pay scale would be reduced even
further, tin re will be but one eventual result the
loss of many of out notable men and a stigma upon
the University's reputation as an educational and
cultural center. The necessity of avoiding such
events cannot be questioned.
TUI TAltlKF \\ \I.KS <ilU)\\ SH\KA
'C' VERY student who subscribes to the "Buy Ore
-*-y gon" snibboleth should have read the editorial
which appeared in Wednesday s Oregonian. There
in the fallacy of erecting a trade barrier around
ourselves was set forth. It pointed out that the
wall which the "Buy Oregon" advocators hope to
hold against incoming merchandise will be equally
as effective in confining Oregon products to Ore
gon. And without the rest of the world Oregon
industries will not amount to a hill of beans, civi
lization can get along without Oregon goods, but
the reverse does not hold true.
Those who have the phobia that it is patriotic
to "Buy Oregon and "Buy America" should dis
card it. It is not patriotic, but merely foolish. One
of the principal reasons for the world discord and
strife that e.u.-l i today u Uie va L ..ccuuiulation
of tariff barriers that extend across the earth. They
must be tom down if conditions are to improve.
They are as great a barrier to progress as the
Himalayas were to the barbarian hordes north of
India.
But somewhere there must be a Khyber pass,
and perhaps it will be found in an advancement of
liberalism and international ideals. It is encourag
ing that the Oregonian, long the stronghold of the
protective tariff, has seen fit to show the people of
the commonwealth the fallacy of the “Buy Oregon”
craze. The action must be regarded as an encour
aging note of progress. Perhaps the doom of such
anachronisms as the high tariff and the subsequent
advent of liberalism is not so far away, after all.
LIVING ON $13 A MONTH
NOVEL experiment concerning the cost of
student living has just been completed by the
home economics department of Indiana university.
The class prepared a menu, which includes three
meals a day, costing $1.72 a week. This added to
the average cost of a room for a week at Indiana
gives a total of $3.32 a week, or $12.88 a month.
Compared to the $50 most of the students were
paying in the form of house bills a year ago, the
sum is unbelievably small. But that it is possible
to exist comfortably on this amount is proved by
the fact that many Indiana university students are
expending not more than from $16 to $20 a month,
including the cost of necessary clothing and other
incidental expenditures.
Greek letter organizations at Oregon are having
a difficult time competing with the lowered dormi
tory and private residence charges for room and
board. The average house bill still is in the neigh
borhood of $40, while at many places board and
room can be procured for half that amount. As a
result, fraternity and sorority membership have
decreased, and many houses are having a hard time
making both ends meet. With a smaller member
ship, it is the tendency for house bills to increase.
A worthwhile movement of the house managers’
association is its attempt to reduce the large as
sessments that confront fraternity and sorority
members. Since the beginning of last term, by
rigid economies, many, organizations have found it
possible to reduce their house bills without under
going any undue embarrassment. Such reductions
have been made possible because of the declining
price level.
In order to reduce bills further, it will be neces
sary to cut the large payments made for contrac
tual obligations. Installments made on buildings
erected in good times consume a large percentage
of income. A lew finance companies have reduced
these payments voluntarily, but there still are some
ten organizations paying the same amount as three
years ago.
Under present conditions a house bill of $40 is
out of proportion to the value received. They will
have to be lowered, and they will be. The move
ment of the house managers’ association is the first
constructive step along this line. If the fraternity
and sorority are to survive, they will have to make
dra.stic cuts in their living expenses.
PHILOSOPHY OF “ALKIE IN WONDERLAND”
TT has been said that Wonderland in which a
small girl named Alice found herself many, many
years ago was a place which, as it were, topsy
turvy.
Various bits of this and that, which if swal
lowed caused people to grow very small or very
large, as the case might be, were found here and
there about the place. Certain versatile animals
talked in a most unexpected manner. Is it any
wonder that they named it Wonderland?
A couple of weeks ago the play "Alice in Won
derland" was launched successfully in the New
j Amsterdam theatre in New York City. Last year
1 a new edition of Lewis Carroll's book was pub
lished with much success. Friday evening a cam
pus group is using this so-called children’s book as
a theme for its principal winter term social event,
the "Mad Hatter's Banquet."
What is the appeal that is found in this book?
Is it the humor, the naiveness, the simplicity of
style? It is a bit of each of those things, but
dominant of all is its philosophy. Any college stu
dent perplexed about personal problems or who
hasn't been able to find just ihe right "slant on
life" should spend an hour with "Alice." Its light
ness hides a bi' of ii.s profound philosophical mean
ing, but it is so much fun to read it, anil before
; he is through, anyone who attempts it will have
done some real, deep thinking.

TF we "Buy Oregon" exclusively we must make
up our minds that eventually we shall be able
to sell little except in Oregon. If we "Buy Amer
ican" exclusively we must expect that our trade
balance still in our favor although shrinking —
will eventually go tHe other way. Zealots in Mr.
; Honest's provincial crusade will do well to regard
I these facts and hold them in view.
They are facts peculiarly pertinent to the Pa
! eific coast states. Oregon, California and Wash
ington have a large foreign trade balance in their
I favor. In these states we import less in proportion
to our exports than does the country as a whole.
We of tlie Pacific coast buy more from the east
, than wc sell to the east. We need the outlet of
our foreign markets to equalize the domestic trade
balance. The "Buy American" agitation, if per
sisted In and made effective, is certain to bring re
j prisals on ns that will react heavily against us.
| its effects, so far as the Pacific coast is concerned,
1 will be the opposite of keeping the money at home.
A compilation of figures on imports and exports
j for the first ten months of 1932 shows this:
Exports. Imports.

These figures, taken at the lowest dollar value
since l9t)o, are by no means as favorable as those

Use That Saw ! ByJKEN FERGUSON
qnHE moot point at the present
* moment is whether women
will don trousers or whether they
won't. And by that I don’t mean
the kind that looks like sailor trow,
but rather the kind which Mar
lene Dietrich and Greta Garbo
have affected for their private
lives.
These trousers are of tailored
grey flannel and are made by Wat
son, the men's tailor of Hollywood.
They go by the name of slacks,
are high-waisted, cut on straight
lines, with rather wide cuffless
legs, and button on the sides.

Some of the stars, such as Bette
Davis and Kay Francis, absolute

have accepted them, and smart wo

are being worn in either grey or
navy blue, with soft woolly tops
constructed on the order of the

I asked Bob Guild, critic extra

the next three generations will
wear them. A beautiful woman
can get by, in skirts, without say

wear trousers, she won’t be able
to get by on her looks. She'll have
to cultivate her mind.

If you want to see some dramat
ic innovations in clothes that may
one day become fashionable, go to
see Carole Lombard in “No Man
of Her Own.’ Miss Lombard wears
a black afternoon frock which is
unusual because of a fluted ruff
around the neck that is reminis
cent of the Elizabethan era. White
ruffs also encircle the upper part
of the sleeves.
Another stunning creation in
which Miss Lombard appears is a
dinner dress of a soft white glis
tening material, cut on straight
simple lines with a tiny collar
(that looks like the collar on a
small boy’s shirt) and a pointed
neck. The startling thing about
the gown is that the point at the
neck line runs down to the very
high waist which is circled by one
of the broadest belts in existence.

Students and Leadership
I JIYIDK society as you will into
classes, there are in reality
only two distinct groups those
who lead and those who are led.
The latter class comprise the great
majority. But despite their minor
ity it is the former group who
shoulder the great burden of the
difficulties Which face the nations
and it is to them that the nation
looks in the hour of national dis
tress.
In looking about us, it is forci
bly impressed upon our minds
how really few men there are who
stand out as leaders in our own
country. In times such as these
when distress, unrest and social
strife are very evident, Canada
needs men of education, deep
thought and vi.ion Not tan th
present ills be rectified in a mo
ment and in years to come, those
who are to succeed the present
leaders must be found.
We think that we are justified
in suggesting that these leaders
will be found among the ranks of
those who have been privileged to
receive a higher education than
the average. From the ranks of
the college students of today will
be drawn the leaders of tomorrow,
to use a much-worn phrase.
But to repeat this statement is
not enough. If we are to succeed
and help our country in the years
to come the time to start is now.
The conditions and situations fac
ing national leaders are not new,
nor will they be over in a few
months. Problems of social jus
tice, national health, international
relations are as old as civilization
itself. These will be the problems
which students will have to face
when they leave their college
campus. Opportunities are un
bounded for those who have the
desire to find out the facts for
themselves. We can be sure that
they will not be solved by any
snap judgment but only by study
and thought.
The nation needs men of vision.
Students should start to prepare
for leadership today. — McGill
Daily.
Burned at the Stake
npHE action of the university
faculty in attempting to put a
quiet death to the many years of
educational progress developed
through the experimental college
is one of the most serious blights
on its record.
After years of experimentation,
and having had prepared for their
consideration one of the most bril
liant analyses of progressive edu
cation ever made in this country
(Dr. Meiklejohn’s report), the fac
ulty last winter began its pathetic
temporizing. Death by smothering
was the fate decreed for the expe
rimental college idea.
The Bleyer committee was ap
pointed by the faculty to consider
the Meiklejohn report, and it fi
nally drew up one of its own, in
which is showed a pitiable miscon
ception of the whole experimental
college idea. Finally, on the basis
of thi§ report on the report, Dean
George C. Sellery was empowered
to appoint a third committee to
make a report on the report on the
report. This third report was to
investigate “educational changes
in the freshman and sophomore
years” including the experimental
college reform which were thereby
to be reported on for the third
time.
And now comes the information
that Dean Sellery has not yet ap
pointed the members of the com
mittee, because in his own words,
he has "not had an opportunity to
secure sufficient data to provide
such a committee.”
This is no time to waste words.
We realize fully that there are cer
tain interests in the faculty bent
upon defeating the experimental
college idea on personal and prac
tical grounds. Then let them come
out into the open; stop appointing
(or failing to appoint because there
is not “sufficient data”) useless
committees, announce to the edu
cational world that the great Uni
versity of Wisconsin has decided
that it has wasted five years of
valuable time and extra money in
educational experimentation, and
take the inevitable consequences
thereof.
Certainly a 75,000 word report
on the college, in addition to the
Bleyer report, is enough “data" for
anybody. One can spend a lifetime
searching for data—that quest is
endless. Now is the time, however,
to make a straightforward decision
and the faculty seems incapable of
such a bit of moral and intellectual
exertion. Instead committees are
appointed.
Certainly, there would be a great
burst of criticism if the faculty
were to repudiate its five-year ex
periment. Certainly, those who
throughout the nation have looked
to Wisconsin as the center of the
new education would feel the blow
keenly. Certainly, it would appear
strange in the light of figures prov
ing that universities with progres
sive educational ventures within
their organization are being flood

W/ASHINGTON, Feb. 17.—(AP>
” —Just a change in the tense
of a verb or two and it is doubt
ful that there ever would have
been any such incident as the oust
ing by the senate of Dave Barry,
its 73-year-old sergeant-at-arms.
What Earry wrote in the maga
zine article provoking the storm
was, "There are not many senators
or representatives who sell their
vote for money.” Had he said, '
"There have not been many,” pos
sibly he would have filled out the
few remaining weeks of his tenure
in that second ranking post of di
rect senate patronage.
* * *
Yet no one who listened either
to that unprecedented examination
of Barry at the bar of the senate
or to the wordy fight on the sen
ate floor, perilously close to blows
at times, when the vote dismiss
ing him was taken could doubt
that he probably would have been
called to some sort of an account
ing for other remarks in that now
historic magazine article.
The word "demagogues" was too
prominent to be overlooked by a
senate smarting under daily edi
torial lashings for dilatory rules
and ways.
Without that phrase in the pres
ent tense about trading votes for
cash, however, a mere reprimand
might have been the limit of sen
ate action, if even that in any
formal way.. Senators themselves
so often ridicule senate long dis
tance talking habits that there
are few of them who could not be
cited as supporting much that
Barry had said.
As a matter of fact, the senate
had voted overwhelmingly to oust
Barry with no debate at all when
Senator Norris, who presented the
resolution from his committee call
ing for that action, decided that
a record vote would be desirable.
He demanded a roll call after a
roaring shout of “ayes” had al
ready sounded.
sis !j: H:
When Norris stopped proceed
ings to get everybody on record it
gave Senator Logan of Kentucky
his chance to thunder his denun
; ciation of “mob law” that set off
I all that followed.
And it also served to introduce
the Kentuckian in appearance,
manner and political background
one of the most picturesque of sen
ators, to his colleagues in more
emphatic fashion than any pre
vious incident since he came to 1
the senate two years ago.
Marvel Mills Logan is a big,
dark man, rivaling that ex-ama
teur heavyweight, Barbour of New
Jersey in heft. A mop of black
hair, shot a bit with streaks of
gray, flops down over his eyes
when he talks. He has wit and
good nature aplenty and an easy
command of language that favors
simple, homely expressions.
Launched on a single-handed
defense of Barry from the demo
cratic side, Logan was cast in a
role to his liking and made the
most of it.
ed with applications for entrance.
Certainly, it would require an ex
planation when Wisconsin’s enroll
ment is falling rapidly, and when
an increase would help the univer
sity very materially.
We, the students of the univer
sity demand a definite explanation
of this slow death by fire of the
experiment at the stake of faculty
cowardice. No additional reports
can erase the disgrace of these
months of delay, misunderstanding,
and vacillating indecision.—Wis
