Mr. Hearst Replies \ PPEARINC in the Oregon Emerald of Novem her 13, was an editorial presentation of an open letter emanating from Francis G. Smith, Jr., editor of the Daily Princetonian and president of the as sociation of college editors, to William Randolph Hearst, American newspaper magnate and No. 1 nationalist. Recently Mr. Hearst on the front page of each of his newspapers presented Hits reply with true Hearstian dynamic eloquence. In doing so, however, Mr. Hearst cautiously refrained from answering specifically ANY ONE of the nine questions sub mitted. Mr. Hearst made no vestige of an appeal to thinking Americans. Mr. Hearst skillfully evades the questions, devoting his gifted pen to platitudinous remarks which serve to disguise his contradictory and inconsistent statements to the end that they will appear valid to his readers. That Emerald readers may reacqnanit themselves with the questions, we reprint below Editor Smith's nine points following which is t.hc reply of National ist Hearst. The Questions: “1. Docs WILLIAM RANDOLPH HEARST agree that if we pile on our already -shaken and dis ordered economic system the further dislocations, unpayable debts, revolutions, which we now know are the necessary legacy of war and which so shook the relatively sound system of 1914, then it will probably finish off the present order in chaos? "2. Is it WILLIAM RANDOLPH HEARST'S general view that the best way to prevent that re currence is to continue the old armament competi tion and decline to discuss internatio: d agreement or organization? If so, on what grounds does he believe that the old method will not produce the old result ? “3. For a nation to be secure under the competi tive principle it must be stronger than any possible rival. What becomes of the rival? Is he to go with out defence? How shall defence be managed under this plan since the security of the one means the in security of the other? Does WILLIAM RANDOLPH HEARST think that there is some system by which each can be stronger than the other? “4. If, in order to be secure, AMERICA must make herself stronger than a rival, does WILLIAM RANDOLPH HEARST suggest that that rival will accept the situation and not resort to alliance mak ing? And if that rival makes alliances, is AMERICA to refrain from resorting to the same weapon? An alliance is an arm, like a battleship, or a submarine adding to a nation’s power. Are AMERICANS to leave this arm entirely in the hands of prospective rivals ? “5. From the time of GEORGE WASHINGTON TO LINDBERGH there has not been a single cen tury in which AMERICA has not been drawn into the affairs of EUROPE. Does WILLIAM RAN DOLPH HEARST really believe that, if isolationism was not possible . . . even in ancient times, a great power, a CREDITOR NATION SUCH AS AMERI CA, in the days of the airplane can continue to pur sue isolation ? “6. To keep AMERICA free of general or per manent commitments and be guided by each circum stance as it arises, was the method pursued before the War. Although AMERICA had po League com mitments in 1914 and men up to the last, WILLIAM RANDOLPH HEARST AMONG THEM, proclaimed how free their hands were, America was drawn in. Does WILLIAM RANDOLPH HEARST think that AMERICA could have kept out, that her entrance was a mistake ? If he thinks AMERICA'S entrance was a mis take, would he have regarded the victory of the Germanic powers, the creation, that is, of an hege mony so preponderant that AMERICA could not have resisted any der ands that it cared to make upon AMERICANS, as a matter of indifference ? If so, why, trouble about armaments at all—if it is a matter of indifference that combinations, much stronger than AMERICA, should arise? “8. If, on grounds of national security, AMERI CA cannot accept the preponderance of a foreign combination, why should AMERICANS expect for eigners to accept THEIRS, especially as their pre ponderance (the Allies) resulted in imposing upon their rivals a treaty which MR. HEARST himself refers to a3 the “UTTER INJUSTICE OF THE VERSAILLES TREATY”? “9. On the eve of the War, Sir Edward Grey declared that the only possible alternative to the see-saw of tn% Balance of Power, by which the pre carious defence of one was achieved by the depriv ing the other of all defence, was for both to pool their power to secure the observance of a common rule of international life, like arbitration of disputes: To build up what Asquith called the community oc Power behind the Jaw. On what general groun l doe3 WILLIAM RANDOLPH HEARST differ from that view? November 17, 1934. Mr. Francis G. Smith, Jr., President, the Association of College Editors, 354 Fourth Ave., New York. My Dear Sir: I AM happy to learn the Mr. Norman Angell is a "probable Nobel Prize winner,” but I have not been overwhelmingly impressed by actual prize winners —as far as their political sagacity is concerned. Because of which (and irrespective of which), I do not feel obligated to answer categorically dis ingenuous, specious questions propounded on the recognized "Have you stopped beating your wife ? —answer yes or no” basis. Nevertheless, I have no objection to stating clear ly and comprehensively my beliefs as to what con stitutes visionary and what practical and patriotic internationalism. 1 personally believe in nationalism AND interna tionalism, each in its proper place. I BELIEVE in benefiting all the people of the earth, whenever and wherever we can do so WITH OUT SACRIFICING THE INTERESTS OF OUR: OWN PEOPLE. I believe in promoting the public welfare, but I do not believe it necessary in doing so to be entirely indifferent to the needs of my own family and as sociates. I believe in loving my neighbor as myself, but I have not yet reached the point where I am ready to sell all I have and give every precious personal and national possession to covetous neighboring nations who desire them but do not deserve them. I BELIEVE in good faith and common honesty among individuals and also among nations. I believe in honor among thieves. I believe that honest debts should be paid and a word of honor respected among peoples and politi cians, even when dishonesty and dishonor are mo mentarily profitable. Pledges must not be given unless they are to be observed; obligations cannot be contracted unless they are to be discharged. Business cannot be conducted unless the names m notes and bonds are valid and honored. International relations can never be maintained on a friendly basis or even or. a business basis if all men are liars and all nations repudiators of debts and duty. I believe in peace and in all sane measures to promote peace at home and abroad and among na tions—BUT PARTICULARLY AT HOME. t BELIEVE that the best way to insure peace at home is to keep out of wars abroad and out of unnecessary international complications which may lead to war. I believe in disarmament when nations are will- j ing to disarm. 1 believe in sustained efforts to persuade nations to disarm. But 1 do not believe that a rich and envied coun- i try like our own should place itself in the position of a shortsighted and misguided nation like China, j and leave itself open to attack and exploitation by other nations which are ambitious, unscrupulous, I and AHMED. I believe in abandoning our military forces when our people can be safely and surely defended without them. I believe in abolishing the police force when there are no longer criminal elements to necessitate it. 1 believe in disbanding the fire department when all the houses are built of non-inflammable mater ials. 1 believe in closing the idiot asylums on the day when there is no longer such an obvious and urgent need for them. But oftentimes 1 am compelled to realize that such a happy day is far distant. Sincerely yours, WILLIAM RANDOLPH HEARST. ASUC) Secures (Continued from Page One) West.” and iu Europe as "The American Expression in Architec ture.” In contrast to Wright, Grant LaFarge, a representative of the older school of art. will speak. La Farge, who comes from a family noted for their architectural work, has done architectural work of ul most every description — cathe drals, memorials, churches, hospi tals, subways, dub houses. Will Durante, note author, will speak on the popular subject of Russia a topic which he knows exceedingly well. “The Tragedy of Russia” was published by him in l‘J3d. labcral to Speak Glenn Frank, president of the University of Wisconsin and for mer editor of the Century maga zine is another of the lecturer. He is a liberalist and will discuss) the modern trends. "America's' Hour of Decision." his new book, is attracting much attention and lishod several years ago, is still popular. Drank has lectured in the United States and Canada since 1912. The books written by these men are in the University library and 1 will be put on a shelf so that the t students may become acquainted with the work before the authors appear on the campus !: 1 I The Day’s Parade By PARKS HITCHCOCK The Czech Jack-pol J ITTLE Czechoslovakia is the J focal point of latest interna tional grievances. Sixteen years old last month this nation has crashed many headlines because of the violent anti-Nazi sentiment its people have shown. This senti ment, so contrary to the national spirit of two of the “Ccskosloven ska's” neighbors has met with re taliation in various anti-Czech demonstrations in Vienna, Berlin and Cologne. Student Riot To a definite outbreak came the a'ffairs of the Czechs, Slovaks, and Bohemians day before yesterday. Students in the university of Pra ha (Prague), Czechoslovakia's cap ital, rioted against German Nazi elements among their body. As yet no confirmation of actual damage inflicted upon Hitlerites has come to light, but Nazi sympathizers in both Germany and Austria were not slow to strike back. Mobs formed in front of the Czech con sulate in Cologne; cries of “Down with the Czechs!" were hurled at the embassy in Vienna; stones and brickbats were cast through the windows of the Czech-controlled newspapers, Der Tag and Die Tunde; students in Nazi “univer sities" throughout central Europe j Ill JJ1ULCOI-. Czech Leaders Silent Silent as yet were famed Dr. Ed uard Benes, Czech minister of for eign affairs, one time premier (1921-22) long-time fighter for Czech freedom, and equally fam ous Thomas G. Mazaryk, who has ' been president of the Carpathian i state since its establishment. Dur-1 ing the decade and a half of its ex-1 istence Czechoslovakia has con-1 ducted its national affairs in a peaceable and highly praiseworthy manner, and in many circles has gained fame as the best of the post war republics. Independence Thrfeatened Her autonomy, how ever, is threatened by any serious disturb ances that may focus about cen tral Europe, and plenty of these circumstances seem to be in the offing. She is encircled by Ger many and Poland to the north, Austria and Hungary to the south, While her eastern tip borders on Rumania. With Rumania alone is she on a solid standing as a mem ber of the Little Entente (third member: Jugoslavia). Her rela tions with Poland are fairly ami cable, largely because of their common ally, France, who has of fensive-defensive treaties with both * nations. Nazi Ascendancy? If, however, (and this is no re-' mote possibility), the Austrian and Hungarian governments s h o u 1 d > pass into Nazi hands with German ! amalgamation as the end, Czecho slovakia would be overridden as the first move, as she would be the one barrier to a Teutonic control of central Europe. Thus the same balance of power that confronted the world in 1914 would again rise, as both France and Russia would i be forced to throw in their lot with i the Little Entente or allow the Na- j zis to take control of half of Eur-I ope. What of Italy? In this hypothetical picture, It aly and Great Britain remain tin- j known figures .with Japan and the United States holding balcony , seats. The minute, however, Rus- , sia becomes embroiled on her west ern front the probability of a Jap- ; anese attack from the east in- , creases. The situation, then, may j seem to resemble a powder train, of which each minor flare will in ■ all probably lead to a major reper- ■ mission. Senators Call (Continued From Page One) iirnis situation was “suppressed” iurin gthe hearings last fall. The :ommittee members nevertheless placed some evidence into the rec ord showing sharp increases in German importations of American iviation materials. American Aid Charged Senators asserted openly that1 Germany -with the aid of Ameri can munitions firms—was reami ng in violation of the treaty of Versailles. The state department report on the German arms situa ion was studied by committee nembers, but its insertion in the •ecord was forbidden for fear of tugmenting tensity abroad. Previously, the state department eceived a series of protests from ieveral countries. Argentina. Me\ co and Great Britain among them, net- testimony in the arms indus ry.

Thus far the poets have managed to converse in a rather human manner, and the programs have been continually improved by Virginia Wappenstein, director, until now this Wednesday feature is the only regular fifteen minute entertainment on the Em erald of the Air schedule. The age-old question, “How In telligent Are Women,” will be given an answer by Dr. Joseph Jastrow, noted psychologist and author, in his regular weekly pro gram over an NBC nation-wide network today at 1:15 p. m. This writer (me) submits that some of them have a great deal more of what it takes than appearances would oftimes indicate. And prob ably it’s a good thing. Harmony and better understand ing between the three great relig ious groups — Protestants, Jews, and Catholics—will be urged by representative speakers in a Good will day program at 3:30 today. There are 102 stations associat ed with the Columbia Broadcast ing system, but by flipping a half inch switch in its master-control room in New York all outlets can be linked together in 30 seconds . . .

Oregon Squad (Continued from Faye One) the favored Gaels was heightened this morning when an examination of his injured knee disclosed al most complete healing. Oregon’s f a m o u s “cruncher" play, stopped cold in the USC bat tle. was given a thorough going over last week and with Frank Mi chek fully recovered from a shoulder injury. Callison hoped that the deceptive line play would function against the Gaels. Dick Bishop, sophomore understudy to Michek, was given much attention in the week's drills, giving rise to the belief that Callison would shift his fullbacks frequently. A light workout on Kczar stad ium this afternoon will finish the workouts for the game The squad will leave for Eugene Friday morn ing to start drill for the coming in tcifcectienal clash with Louisiana Thanksgiving Dope Giving By ED HANSON mi KYSTAL borl SAYS mm State university at Baton Rouge, December 15. Rally Committee Goes Seventeen members of the Ore gon rally committee also left yes terday noon for San Francisco where they will conduct a regular Webfoot rooting section. Oregon alumni living in the bay region have been contacted and asked tc join the students in supporting Oregon at the game. The trip is being made in private cars and was made possible by the support given by the students at the recent rally dances held at the Igloo and at the theater rally held in Port land before the Oregon State game. Newt Smith of the Coliege Side and Sid Claypool and Walt Van Atta of the Oregon Pharmacy also gave financial aid to make it possi ble for the group to make the trip. N. B. Zane, associate art profes sor accompanied the group as ad visor. The group will make their headquarters at the Clift hotel. The following made the trip: Ralph Schomp, co-chairman of the com mittee, Eddie Vail, yell king, Gif ford Sobey, Jack Campbell, Doug Ward, Fred Lieuallen, Ken Belieu, Cecil Barker, Fred Fisher, Jack Granger, George Callas, Don Thomas, Norris Perkins, Jack Mul hall, Bill George, Craig Finley, and Baline Ballah. Jim Emmett, co chairman was unable to accom pany the committee to the game as business kept him here. Fates of Empire (Continued from Pape One) left, following the well-known tradition of the younger genera tion. "Eternity" whithered under the speech of evil Root, who sugges ted ‘‘loin-girders" for girding the loin. As an example for something else, to which he switched with amazing speed, he mentioned the little girl who was bred in the j country, but who was just a crumb in Eugene. Then there was the girl j named Naughty Bird, who gave I herself the first part of her name, but the boys gave her the “bird.' Conclusion (copied from “the Root of all evil"): Whithers a will there's a way. , Juniors Offer (Continued from Pape One) appointed by Ed Labbe, president, and are as follows: W. F. G. Thacher, Miss Maude Kerns, Ottilie Seybolt, Virgil Earl, and Tom Stoddard from the faculty; student members are, Ann-Reed Burns, Virginia Younie, Bill Paddock, and Henriette Horak. Professor Thach er was named chairmen of the judges. Mardi Gras Ball Other nlans discussed at the meeting were for the junior-senior dance, to be given December 6, at the Osburn hotel. The dance this year is to be called a “Mardi Gras ball," and in addition to special features, and select music, a door prize, in the form of a student radio, will be awarded. A committee was also appointed! to study the alleged negligence of campus traditions. The members' are Jim Blais. Bill Schloth. Cos-' bro-.6 Labaru. and A! Neilson. Innocent Bystander By BARNEY CLARK ^fE have a real treat for our six readers this time, bless their fat little faces. The Chi Psis came up to the Shack last night and took our Mr. Morrison, and dunked him in the mill race! Just to get the thing straight, we’d better give it play by play. Our Mr. Morrison is sitting on a desk, talking to Jim Emmett, when Phil Fields and Jim Wells roll up. “Are you Jimmy Morrison?” queries Wells. “I am,” asserts Jimmy, throwing out his chest. “Just the boy we are looking for,” they chime in chorus, clamping onto his arms and legs. Emmett looks up from his fash ion column, batting his eyes like a toad in a hail-storm. HE thinks they are trying to dis member Jimmy, and proceeds to clamp a strangle-hold on Wells. Immediately sixteen assorted Chi Psis rush into the room with bulging eyes, and commence to do the typewriter tables a bit of no good. This calms them down somewhat, and they retreat out into the hall to discuss ways and means. Mr. Morrison remains behind, breathing very hard and looking a bit green around the gills. Pretty soon the Chi Psis come back and solemnly remove all the typewriter tables into the far corners of the room. Emmett stands to one side this time, having finally discovered that they do not wish to tear Jimmy into small pieces, but merely to insert him in the Race. The lodge lads take Morrison easily this time, prying him out from behind a radiator like an oyster from the half-shell. They bear him out, Cleopatra-like, on their shonlders, and tour down. j to the mill race back of the j Kappa Sig tent. There is a brief j and solemn pause, during which giiUhiamittiumuiuiHiumtirajnHtirmiimuiiiiiKisiiHawianiiiiHuiiuiiiiJimimnmus WE HOPE | you enjoy every minute % 1 of Thanksgiving Day.

Such is the life of the Emer ald “humor” editor. * »• * Lou Parry and some other girl stopped into the Falcon the other night; the other girl ordered some food to take over to the dorm. Somebody brought a sack contain ing a bottle of milk. “My gosh, what is this, old home week?” asked Lou. , Yesterday the- players’ train was obscured for a little while by another train which pulled into the station, but the loud cheering went on just the same. Pretty soon someone noticed that the boys’ train was clear out of the yeards. Notice to near flunkers: Do your Christmas dropping early. A careful survey of the frater nities on the campus reveals the startling evidence that the frosh like to take hacks when they’re wearing their “tin” pants. Looks like the paddles are getting “tin foiled.” they anoint his head with asa fetida, and then he strikes the old aqua with a resounding splash. Exit all, chortling hap pily over the fact that Jimmy will smell right pretty for weeks. And it is our best chromium plated guess that Morrison will be at least discreet in his references to the Chi Psis as long as the odor lingers on, or else our crystal borl is all out of whack..
