In a setting of academic pageuutry
USl men and women received de
grees from the University of Ore
gon at the fifty-fifth annual com
mencement exercises in McArthur
Court Monday.
Marching down two aisles, the
graduating seniors and masters' can
didates in plain black caps and
gowns, the medical school graduates
with green tassels on their mortar
Iwards, the students in social work
and public health nursing in white
robes entered the court from one
door, while the speakers and fac
ulty made a brilliant procession with
their many colored hoods represent
ing degrees from any universities
of the world as they entered from
another door.
Dr. Chester Harvey Howell, edi
tor of tlie San Francisco Chronicle,
in addressing the graduating seniors,
declare?! that they would live in one
of the most interesting generations
of the world's history.
"Decnmocracy. capitalism, moral
ity, religion we bequeath to you nt
a 'time when there is nothing certain
about them. You are faced with a
task of intellectual energy in solving
these problems whirh no generation
has ever been called upto to at
tack,' the speaker said.
Make Machinery Servant
"We are leaving you a very mess
ed up world," he continued. "With
you lies the opportunity of making
machinery a servant of mankind, not
a master. My geueratiou and those
before it have not succeeded iu this
problem. America alone can pro
nicc more than enough of every
thing for everybody. Lai t she hasn't
figured out how three-fourths of
everybody can pay lor wnai my can
get. We have solved production; we
have not solved distribution."
Socialism has issued a challenge
to the whole capitalistic world. Dr.
Howell asserted. As a going con
cern it is forcing a choice on Amer
ica, "The decision of socialism or
capitalism will not be made by argu
ments, but facts. You must make
our system work, in fact,' the edi
tor said.
"You are the first democratic
generation which hHs had to face
competition of anything else better
than democracy. America herself
is showing an interest in dictator

with the president in the present
crisis.
"Todav nobody knows whether
