“ . . . . 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 toduy—the citi
zenship of tomorrow. . . .
*•.... The University should he a place where
classroom experiences and faculty contacts should atimu
Jate and train youth for the mast 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 be 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 a dis
ciplined intellect, with a reasonable command of the
techniques that s 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 1031-32.
A DEBT TO THE NEXT GENERATION
HIGHER education trembles beneath the blud
geon of retrenchment at virtually every legis
lative assembly in the nation. Sifters of press dis
patches on newspaper copydesks read monotonously
through stories telling of slashes and reductions
imposed upon institutions of higher learning. Near
ly every state university and college foresees the
destruction of work that has taken generations to
complete Against the general disaster a few ideal
ists and educators and scholars struggle valiantly.
Hopelessly in the minority, they endeavor to avert
what they know may be a terrible calamity.
Romans watching their city sacked by the Huns
sorrowed no more than the true scholars as they
view the wreckage contemplated in higher educa
tion. Napoleon brooded no more over the loss of
ins resplendent army in Russia than America's edu
cators will mourn the depredations in education,
if the howlers for economy at all costs wield their
pruning knives unhindered.
A tragedy confronts our schools, and it must be
averted. There is a generation of children coming
up to take its place in ttie world. Among its mil
lions will be future Edisons and Sinclairs and Lin
colns and Lufayettes and Wrights and Marshalls
men to lead the world. And it is upon them that
the great burden will fail if higher education is
dynamited this year.
The result of malnutrition is not apparent until
the second and third generations. And as it is with
food, so it is with knowledge. Where spindle-legs
appeared in one instance, flimsy minds will appear
in tlie other. Where weak spinal columns appeared
in a literal meaning in one, weak spinal columns will
appear figuratively in tHe other. And the general
outcome will be a sterility of ideas and a lack ol
ambition and purpose that will anchor the advance
of civilization for years and years to come.
The catastrophe must be averted. ‘HOW?" you
ask. The answer is the MEN who can avert it.
Already splendid work has been done here in Ore
gon by board members anti educators and more
remains for them to do. It takes strong hearts
and brilliant minds and courageous spirits. And
the press dickers bounce away merrily, broadcast
ing the need for those hearts and minds and spirits:
Seattle Drastic cut in curricula feared.
Salem Faculty salaries face rigid reductions.
Madison President Frank fears for future of
university.
Berkeley Courses may have to be abandoned.
Give us MEN to save higher education.
EMBARGO PEN \EIZES c'lll.N V
/NOMMKN r by Oregon professors on Britain's era
^ bargo of arms shipments to the Far East is not
altogether favorable. Without casting any i of lec
tion on British foreign policy, some of thorn feel
that the measure is more harmful to China than
Japan. Senator Borah concurs in this opinion at
tacking the measure.
The results would be entirely different. Japan
already has her war machine assembled for her
invasion of Chinc.se territory, and if out,Hr .arc- '
1
of supply are shut off she is in a much better tech- [
nical position to manufacture her own supplies of
war. China depends upon the world to provide her
with even the barest necessities for a defensive
campaign. If these outside sources are shut off her
disadvantage will far exceed that of Japan.
"Under no circumstances will it do for Great
Britain to become a party to the dispute,"’ said John
Simon, England's foreign secretary, in his brief for
Tire embargo. Under ordinary circumstances and
between two nation.s with similar and diversified
industries, the measure would undoubtedly hinder
an armed conflict. As it is Great Britain's embargo
will unjustly penalize China.
Any use of sanctions should be instigated by the
league and subscribed to by all of the members. For
Great Britain and America to refuse to sell arms
in the Far East, unless the rest of the nations sub
scribe to the same policy, means only that guns of
Czechoslovakian or Austrian make will be substi
tuted instead. Dean Eric W. Allen summarizes the
situation briefly: “I think the only sensible thing
to do is to follow the lead of the league of nation.s.”
No matter what the decision of congress, or the
protests of the League of Nations, the bloody cur
tain goes up. Along the Jehol front the massed
armies of two nations await the signal of attack.
The hitherto intermittent sniping, the occasional
guerrilla warfare, and the casual atrocities prac
ticed on napless farmers, are reminiscent of an or
chestral prelude before the play begins. The real
business of the day is only starting. Nor will any
wot ld-wide disapproval, notes of protest from
league members, or use of economic boycott, deter
Japan.
Before spring melts the ice in the passes, and
before any further shipments of arms can affect the
conflict one way or another, the trial will have been
made. China will have repulsed the Japanese cam
paign, or defeated, will have lost irrevocably its
hold in Manchuria.
PUERILE PRANKS
r¥"'HE RECENT adolescent action of the inter
fraternity council in condemning the Emerald
for its procedure in advocating the low-cost living
plan has been deplored by all who noticed it as a
pathetic and feeble effort, hardly worthy of a group
supposed to represent the upper strata of the men's
Greek-letter organizations. Faculty members,
newspaper men and students have been united in
agreeing that the move was ridiculous and deserv
ing of little more than passing comment.
It was up to the interfraternity council either to
approve or condemn the Emerald plan for low-cost
living. The members of the group knew that. But
they did not face the issue. Instead, they back
paddled by criticizing the Emerald and then crawled
out of that dilemma by saying they were in favor
of “any plan” for reduced living expenses. Obvi
ously, they would approve “any plan" for economy,
but why did they hesitate to take issue on the spe
cific proposal before the University?
Although the action of the council was so child
ish and pathetic that, it actually was humorous, we
believe it to be serious that a group representing
the fraternities cannot muster sufficient courage
and facts to face the problems confronting it. Every
member of the interfraternity council knows the
organization should either approve or condemn the i
Emerald plan. They realized that when they side
stepped by criticizing the editor of the Emerald,
calling him names, in fact, in a resolution that was
little short of libelous. They also were aware of
that fact when they flaunted their prejudice and
bias before the campus by condoling a previous un
authorized statement by three members of their
group, instead of chastising those three members]
for unapproved anil unwarranted action.
The action of the council is over now, and there
is little to be done about it, although the group
could show its good faith and intent by aiding in
the adoption of the Emerald plan. Tiie people of
the state of Oregon, struggling to keep their chil
dren in school, are in a receptive mood to any pro
posal designed to lighten their financial burden. And
they arc in no mood to tolerate interference with
such a plan, especially when that interference be
based on prejudices anil side-issues and not the facts
of the case.
It also is to be regretted that a fadulty member
presided over tiie meeting at which the council
adopted its childish and undignified resolution.

An Inspiring Lilt to Oregon
¥N THEIR gift of the Miner building to the Uni
* versity of Oregon, Wilbur E. and Henry T. Miner
arc milking more than a gift. They are showing
their faith in the future of Oregon and Oregon’s
education. At a time when education is threatened
by tiie combined forces of prejudice anil depression,
this action is reassuring anil inspiring.
The Miner brothers are not college graduates.
They acquired everything they have by native abil
ity and by what they learned in the hard school of
business competition. But they came to Eugene
because it was the University City, of Oregon, be- ■■
cause they enjoyed the kind of life that is possible
here. They invested a fortune in this building
which testifies to their faith in Oregon. Now they -
leave it all (except for a modest life incomei to the
state of Oregon through the University.
'till tiie depression lifts, the revenue which the
University will enjoy from the Miner building will
not be large, but it will be sufficient to endow a
professorship in tiie school of business administra
tion. in years to come, as valuations and rentals
icturn to normal, the Miner building may become
a mainstay of endowment income for the Univer
sity. Pile University of Washington through its
ownership of downtown Seattle property has long
enjoyed an income secure from tlie whims of poli
tical fortune and this means much to the mainten
ance of high standards in an institution.
The gift of the Miner brothers is another link
which binds the University of Oregon to Eugene
and makes talk of moving or abandonment sheer!
nonsense. It is in keeping with the Eugene tra
dition of giving to this school which began with the
first .0,000 for Old Deady in tiie hard times of '7J
and in many other gifts down to the $150,000 for
tiie ait museum a few years ago. It is a reminder
Itmt the people of Oregon BELIEVE in education,
deeply and sincerely. Some day we shall laugh at
the troubles of these “early days" and early strug

His Royal Highness, Edward,
Prince of Wales, heir to an empire
of 450,000,000 subjects, sets the
style in masculine attire. H. R. H.
is looked to not only for the stamp
of approval on new vogues, but he
instigates fashions of his own
which are immediately taken up
by men the world over.
So instantaneous is the response
to any fashion which H.R.H. starts
that garments are rushed by air
from London to Paris.
* * *
There arc those who believe that
any man who is so fastidious, so
exacting, and so knowing in mat
ters of dress as the prince must be
somewhat foppish. The prince,
however, is recognized as a “reg
ular guy,” and when one considers
that his “job" is that of a super
salesman, traveling the world and
persuading the peoples of the globe
to “Buy British,” one realizes how
essential it is that sartorially
speaking he be always a little more
than correct.
* * $
There is no doubt but that the
wardrobe of Edward contains the
largest single collection of male
attire in the world, consisting, as
it does, not only of ceremonial
robes, accessories to court dress,
the ancient Tartans which he
wears in Scotland, his guard’s
dress, army and navy uniforms,
the sumptuous robes peculiar to
the title of Wales, Boy Scout uni
forms, university robes, but also
of the accoutrements incidental to
formal day and evening, informal
and sports attire.
ill * Jj:
What are those styles, then, for
which we can thank this man who
is the greatest beau brummel of
our time ? He, it is who revived the
Glen Urquhart plaids, which are
taking the world of men by storm.
He is responsible for all the Shet
land pullover sweaters which
sportsmen and school boys affect.
He favors the double-breasted suit
of flannel with chalk stripes over
the blue.
* * *
We have him to thank for the
backless dress waistcoat, for the
hacking scarf, for the wide spread
collar which takes a. longer knot
in the necktie, for the polka-dot
foulard muffler, for the cap which
has a one-piece top sewn to the
brim and which, even now, is the
latest thing out in sport wear.
* * *
If you. dear men of my acquain
tance. would be smart this spring
and would care to make a girl’s
heart go pit-a-pat, you will wear
a suit with Wales stripes, which
are stripes that harmonize with
the fabric, or with Wales plaids,
which are refreshing after the
plain and timid weaves to which
we have been accustomed. They
have a bolder look and nine out of
ten fabrics have over-plaids.
* V *
A. for colors: you will wear the
single-breasted notch lapel and
the three-button single-breasted
peak lapel models in brown, the
double-breasted suit in grey flan
nel or in blue with chalk stripes.
* * *
Spring hats are either off the!
face or have the brim snapped
down in the manner which was
originated and popularized by the
Vale students. And speaking of
hats, it may please those of you
who invested in green homburgs
to know that they still hold their
own iu thlo mad. merry, Marina
vellic whirl of fashion whims and
changes.
We select for Promenade: The
three Spirits of Spring: Ed Cross,
Guy Benson, and Ralph Schomp,
who greeted the Saturday sunshine
en role. Mr. Cross wore grey flan
nels with a pearl grey sweater;
Mr. Benson wore grey flannels
with a blue sweater, Mr. Schomp,
red-brown flannels with a brown
sweater.

Washington
Bystander. .
By KIRKE SIMPSON
^WASHINGTON, Feb. 27.—(AP)
” —Judging by his announce
ment of a hurry-up party deficit
pay-off plan as he passed through
Washington on his way back from
Miami ahead of President-elect
Roosevelt, big Jim Farley must
have been doing more than mak
ing up a patronage slate while in
Florida.
He was probably more interest
ed in laying the groundwork for
getting the democratic national or
ganization out of the red, than he
was merely in determining just
who were to be his cabinet col
leagues after March 4.
In announcing his plan of call
ing for contributions, to pay off
the $700,000 deficit in the par
ty till, before instead of after Mr.
Roosevelt’s inauguration, Mr. Far
ley did not seek to avoid the talk
certain to come up otherwise as to
who “bought” his way into the
limelight of federal office by that
means.
“We are all familiar with the re
curring scandal to what amounts
to the sale of important offices of
the government,” said Big Jim.
* * *
So his idea is to have everybody
step up to ihe pay window before
there is any distribution from the
pie counter and avoid the notion
that an advance “bargain" was
struck. And it follows logically,
that a host of deserving demo
crats now studying intently that
pamphlet listing government jobs j
which are subject to political fill
ing—the much thumbed volume
known in Washington as “the plum
book”— probably read that Farley
announcement with pained inter
est.
It might imply that among the
items on which their availability
for an appointment might be
weighed would be whether they
had done their duty by the deficit.
This new stroke of party man
agement disclosed by Mr. Farley
has another aspect to it also. |
While he was holding conferences i
at Miami and being deluged with 1
letters of application, an extraor
dinary lot of names got into print
as “possibilities” not only for cab
inet or little cabinet posts but for
many other good jobs that arc so
soon to be filled by presidential
appointment.
Every day during Mr. Roose
velt's absence on his fishing cruise,
a new batch of names came from
Miami on the pr&ss wires.
* * *
How did they get out? If those
names were not being mentioned
somehow in circles close about Big '
Jim Farley, how did they happen 1
to occur at the same- time to all
the reporters?
Whatever the manner of release,!
the party treasury might profit in
those cases where persons men
tioned for jobs decided it might be
wise to contribute to Mr. Farley’s
deficit sinking fund plan as a sort!
of preliminary “insurance.”
“I have no doubt the money will'
be promptly forthcoming,” blandly
said Big Jim in Washington.

Oscar Levant, the pianist, was
hemmed in a corner by one of i
these talkative pests who seem ;
to pop up on all parties. The pest !
kept blab-blabbing away until Le- 1
vant. was seriously considering if
he couldn’t get a jiu-jitsu hold and
.oss his annoyer out of the window.
Finally he quashed him with the
suggestion that they play a new
game. “This is the way it goes,”
Levant explained. “You leave the
party and don't let us know where
you’re going. Then we’ll all try
to find you next week sometime.
It’s lots of fun.”
Sometime later Levant was ex
plaining why he was so tolerant of
one of those dumb lasses who dote '
upon hero-worshipping.
“Of course, she asked a thous
and silly questions,” he admitted.
"But, you see I have an inferiority
complex. And anyone like that
who will pay so much attention to
me—well, I just feel sympathetic.”

Tallulah Bankhead is indeed an
artful professor when it comes to
ridding herself of these parlor in
truders. Usually she is very cour

are times when she eliminates
them with a facility that leaves
them gasping.
A well known dramatist, known
for his boring conversations, called
upon her and remained for hours.
All hints that he should take his
leave were ignored.
Finally Miss Bankhead excused
herself, went to the telephone in
the next room and called the hotel
management, requesting that she
be transferred to another suite on
a higher floor.
Porters immediately descended
on the apartment and quickly
transferred her belongings to the
new suite. The dramatist sitting in
the drawing room waited and wait
ed for her return, but she didn't.
Finally, a bell boy came in and
announced to him, “I'm sorry but
Miss Bankhead has moved and left
no forwarding address.”

CINEMA
By PARKS HITCHCOCK
CINEMA addicts who passed up
last season’s most ballyhooed
film may take it in at the Colon
ial tonight for 15 cents. And
when we say ballyhooed, we might
add rightly so, for “Grand Hotel”
is a good show.
Our finest bit of praise might
be that highly publicized actors
and ’tresses, Greta Garbo, John
and Lionel Barrymore, Joan Craw
ford, Wallace Beery, Lewis Stone,
et al, act together, and not sep
arately. It has been one of the
banes of a moviegoer’s life to too
often see each actor in an over
loaded cast try to “steal the
show” from their co-actors. Not
so cinema actors, Garbo, Barry
| more, Crawford, Beery, Stone.
It is hard to revel in compari
sons at a show as outstanding as
this. Perhaps Wallace Beery as
| brutal, boorish Preysing is fore
I most in our memory. However, as
this publicity savors too much
publicity we might state our sin
cere opinion. It's a fine show.
To Authoress Vicki Baum, act

the Barrymores, and last of all
our own Glen Godfrey (who brings
they all for 15 cents, noble soul)
