Political Science Needs Theory
H. E. Dean Stresses to Club
“Ideas are facts, and social sci
ence is a science” said Professor
H. E. Dean of the political science
department in his speech, “Func
tion of Political Theory,” before
the Political Science club Wednes
day night at the YWCA.
“Social scientists can study ideas
as facts aside from considering
whether they are good or bad,” he
said. He said he believes it is pos- I
sible to study^the operative ideals
within political institutions with
out forming an evaluation as to
their falsehood.
He indicated Marxism as an ex
ample of a scientific effort to study
how the process of social change
comes about. The techniques of
science must be different from so
cial science, but the scientific

metnod can be used to establish
ethical values.
Professor Dean explained that
the field of political science needs
political theory to help in critically
analyzing the concepts that we
use. Ideas and assumptions must
be studied as such, and their value
should be determined, Dean said.
He cited Chief Justice Holmes’ fear
of the “inarticulate major prem
ise,” the explicit idea being held
far more dangerous than the im
plicit idea. -
The normative theory, Dean ex
plained? is concerned with values
and ethical concepts. It is evident
that men seek orientation and
guidance, as seen by the great pop
ularity of the new study of history
by Toynbee, and such books as
“Peace of Mind” by J. L. Liebman,
he commented.
“We must be concerned with val
ues,” he said. “Science as such
rests upon a fundamental value
judgment, that the truth of sci
ence is good. I can't see.” he said,
“how an intelligent scientist, social
or exact, can live in an ivory tow
er.” The scientist must be con
cerned with ethical problems and
value judgment.

day, KUGN is going to bring you
one of the greatest public service
programs ever written. . . . Nor
man Corwin’s “On a Note of Tri
umph.” This special broadcast will
be heard from 7:30 to 8:30 p.m. in
observance of Armistice day.
And here’s a note for longhairs
and assorted music lovers. The

ly broadcasts on KUGN beginning
Saturday, November 15. Each Sat
urday will bring a complete opera
for your listening pleasure, start
ing at 11 a.m.
The final set-to in the Game of
the Week series will feature Michi
gan versus Indiana in a quaint
mob-scene known as football. The
whistle blows for KUGN listeners
at 10:45 a.m. tomorrow morning.
H. Wismer will attempt to tell the
players from the officials. Michi
gan is expected to tear the Hoos
iers limb from limb.
On the seamy side of life . . . .
there’s a fine old line-up of mys
teries tomorrow eve for those of
you who like blood with your en
tertainment. Mr. John J. Malone
waves a few law books in the di
rection of a trio of kidnapers, ex
tricates a dame named Hazel, and
has an all-round fine time at 6:30
p.m.
Ross Dolan, detective, detects
like crazy around 8:30 tomorrow
