-Streit Discusses
World Union Need
Speaking for the second time at Oregon, with an interval
of 26 years between, Clarence Streit, author of the “Union
Now’’ movement, spoke to the assembled student body on
Monday, October 13, in Gerlinger.
“If we come out of this war with no better government than
when it began, ’ ’ claimed the author, ‘ ‘ we will have a depression
that will make 1932 look like a
Sunday-school picnic.”
The ex-correspondent’s organ
ization, Federal Union, Inc., has
iRveral million members in the
United States alone and issues
charters to new chapters all over
the world each month. This group
maintains headquarters in Wash
ington, D.C., from which !t dis
tributes literature and a monthly
bulletin on union principles.
Mr. Streit’s first visit to the
University occurred in 1915, wnen
he appeared with his college de
bate team.
Speaking on the subject, “The
Democracies’ Answer to Hitler,”
Mr. Streit recalled that upon pub
lication of his first book, “Union
]%w,” people looked on the idea
as a dream, “as if a dream were
more impractical than a night
mare,” referring to the current
world situation.
President Donald M. Erb intro
duced the speaker after a fiute
solo written by Frank Keller and
played by Charlotte Allen. Ac
companist was Marjolaine Le
Beck.
Propeller Club
Plots Year's Course
The student "port” of the Pro
peller club met Monday to or
ganize plans for the current year.
The club, composed of shipping
men in the various shipping ports
of the country and interested stu
dans of all universities, has as
its aim promotion of interest in
the American merchant marine.
Each university group is known
as a “student port,” and is spon
sored by the business men of
some nearby shipping point. The
University of Oregon port is
sponsored by the Portland group
which invites the student port to
banquets and informative discus
sions at the Portland meetings.
LOST: Twenty-one Theta
Chi nuggets; last seen heading
in the direction of the western
front. Forty-five members
have ants in their panzers,
anxiously awaiting further de
velopments. Look for general
wetness behind ears, shabby
appearance, and one picture of
Nelda Rohrback, inscribed "To
my blond Hercules.”
To whom it may concern,
these refugees are promised to
see plenty of action along the
ox front and maybe a little
behind. Please phone 1920 if
found.
P.S. Heaven can wait, fel
lows!
C Streit Grad
OfMontanaU
Clarence K. Streit, who spoke
at an assembly Monday, is a
graduate of the University of
Montana, a Rhodes scholar, and
an ex-intelligence officer of the
A.E.F. He was editor of his col
lege paper. While at Oxford and
later, he worked as a foreign cor
respondent for several large
American newspapers and evolved
his idea of Democratic Union
while engaged in this work.
His plan includes the political,
military, commercial, financial,
and cultural unity of free na
tions. These "free” countries orig
inally meant: the Pan-American
Union, the British Common
wealth of Nations, France, Bel
gium, the Netherlands, Switzer
land, Denmark, Norway, Sweden,
and Finland.
In his latest book, however,
“Union Now With Britain,” he
mentions only England and Amer
ica, although any other nation
could join the Union upon accept
ing the Bill of Rights into their
form of government. All of these
countries would then be bound to
gether by common citizenship,
defense, economy, finance, and
communication.
Receptionists Hear
Woes at Infirmary
“What can I do for you?”
quoth she.
“Well, it’s like this. Last night
I got a pain in my neck. It start
ed working both ways, up and
down, you know; wow, it was ter
rific! My temperature ran over
105 degrees, too. Yeh, and by this
morning I had a pain over both
eyes and one for each vetrebrae,
too.” The aching individual
breathed deep preparing for fur
ther discourse, but the patient re
ceptionist hastened to tell him
that he’d better wait and tell it to
the doctor.
And that sort of thing goes on
every day at the health service.
Skeezix’ girl, Nina Clock, has
never heard any more detailed
descriptions since she became a
steno than the receptionists at
the pill palace hear in one lone
day.
The “tell - it - to - the - doctor”
group listed in the wards today
includes; Grace Henry, Bette
Reames, Arliss Boone, Virginia
Tyrell, Jean Dutton, Bill Malt
man, and Ray L. Smith.
More than 3,500 intercollegiate
football games are played at col
leges and universities in the Unit
ed States each year.
