; muni8t party if their organization is to have labor board rec-
: ognition in a labor dispute. This criticism is not, however, an
: objection to the affidavit. It is, rather, a proposal that there
, should be a broadening of the provision to require a similar
i affidavit from employers.
After all, why not? Theoretically, we suppose, there is as
great opportunity for red infiltration in employer ranks as
in those of employes although it is at once apparent that the
position of the communist who achieved high executive status
in big business would be, to put it mildly, somewhat anoma
lous. But, if he were in such position, his company or business
associates, as well as any agency of government, should cer
tainly be as interested in discovering this allegiance as would
any labor organization. Neither would wish to have its activi
ties directed in a manner to strengthen the communist pro
gram in this country.
. Here it should be noted that the non-communist affidavit
has been made use of by a number of unions in eliminating
undesirable domination of the sort. The opposition to enforce
ment of the affidavit provision has been largely communist
inspired.
If there are benefits to be derived, it would seem that
business and industry should have the opportunity to share
them. Indeed, we have heard no. objection to the suggestion
and doubt seriously that there would be any. If the purpose
is to assure equality in the relation of employer and employe
in their negotiations, then it is a good idea. If the purpose is,
by chance, to cause embarrassment, that possibility can easily
be disposed of by accepting the suggestion. ,
Any change and," after the election results of early No
vember, it is manifest that the Taft-Hartley act will be in for
a pretty thorough combing will rest, of course, with con
gress. Some of the amendments, it is likely, will be ill-advised.
Reaction is frequently marked by blunders. This possibility
that we have been discussing, however, need occasion no ap-

DEFERRED FRATERNITY MEMBERSHIP
At. the University of Oregon a development of much social
significance and with a bearing as well on the handling of stu
dent housing is announced by the Emerald, undergraduate
newspaper, in relation to admission to Greek letter societies.
Freshmen, it is noted, while still eligible for pledging, will be
required to spend their first year in living quarters other than
those which the fraternities provide.
Heretofore, as we understand the situation, virtually all
invitations to prospective members have been extended in
the first week of the fall term of college. Hasty appraisal of
individuals by thd fraternities and equally hasty appraisal of
fraternities by the individuals has been a necessary feature
of the system. This has also been displeasing to many in the
fact, that in order to be considered for membership, freshmen
have been required to declare their desire to "make" a fra
ternity and to relinquish any right to college dormitory hous
ing. Those who have not been "bid" have found themselves
without quarters and in tho unpleasant position as well of
having been unfavorably passed upon. For one rpason or the
other, students in this situation have not infrequently decided
against continuing at the school of their choice.
' The new plan, which has been satisfactorily tried in other
institutions of higher education, should be the answer to such
problems as those we have stated. Tledging throughout the
year, on a basis of better and more thorough acquaintance,
elimination of the shadow cast by failure to pledge an an
nounced candidate for nledirintr. uncliminiHhnH Hnn-irv in
the matter of living accommodations are the results which are
reasonably to be expected.
Many adults may view tho whole matter as rather fi-ivi;,l
We do not consider it so. Annually it is something which may
have a delinito influence on the lives of an appreciable num
ber of the younger generation from which we must expect so
mum n Mie worm is 10 go on as it should. That makes it im
, porta nt.

One such- memo that has been
going the rounds In the Pentagon

is a fake transcript of an imagin
ary press conference with an avia
tion general, it is cureiuuy ntuiup
cd "Top Secret." Understand, it
never took place. But here are its
highlights:
Question General, what are
your plans for the next war? .
Answer There won't be a next
war. When all the other nations
hear about our plans, they won t
dare to start a war.
QWell, what are the plans?
AFirst of alL we will restrict
our offensive to the air. By fabri
cating an overwhelming offense,
we can ignore the .defense. This
can be achieved by dreadnaughts
of the air. We refer to these as
"alrnaughts."
Q What will the airnaught be
like?
A It will operate on tne closed
shuttle principle. This is the pro
cedure whereby an aircraft can
bomb a target and keep going, re
turning to its starting point with
out turning around.
Q You mean the plane will fly
completely around the earth?
A The details aren't worked
out yet, but the plan is compara
tively simple. If one plane can go
5000 miles, two planes can go 10,-
000 miles. Now, if you double the
fuel oad of those two planes,
you get 20,000 miles, and so on.
Actually, we won i neea as mucn
fuel, because the planes will fly
faster.
Q How much faster?
AWell, a plane standing on
the eround is traveling about 1000
miles an hour because the earth
rotates 24.000 m les in 24 hours.
We should be able to add another
1000 miles per hour to that, and
thus get around tne wona in it
hours . . . with optimum Velocita-tion.
Q Will the airnaught carry
anv nav load?
A Definitely. Every memlier
of the crew will draw flight pay.
Q - Are you going to have any
trouble getting enough fuel?
A None at all. We are working
on a fuel-recovery system by
whlqh each plane reprocesses the
exhaust gases of the plane ahead,
and thus manufactures its own
fuel.
Q But General, how will the
first plane get its ruerr
A There won't be any first
plane. There will be a continuous
ring of planes so that eacn one
will have a plane ahead of it. l nis
constitutes a . sort of endless
bombbelt.
e
Q Does this mean that planes
would be refueled in the air?
A We would go much farther
tViun iht,t An fivnjwt tt rnynl'vlf-n
the plane in all respects and ex-
cnango ingiu crews even wnne

bases when the program is ulti

that the children would have hot

the school to prepare them, moth

Washington Scene

i (Unltml Pru Staff Correspondent)
Washington, Nov. 17 UK A
portrait of a U. S. senator by his
14-year-old daughter: "Dad and
Horse Sales."
"About the last day of the Tat
tersal horse sale in Lexington,
Ky. the last hour, I should say
I saw my father running back to
the auction hall. When my father
has that suspicious smile and my
sterious twinkle in his eye, his
next move is worth watching. . . .
"All of a sudden, the auctioneer
called in a beautiful standard
bred stallion. He was namey Sir
Guy Laurel. Really neat. He
didn't have the awful Roman nose
that is typical of standard breds.
"The auctioneer started his
chant . . . 500, do I hear 30, who'll
give 40 . . . 600 . . . going, going
. . . gone. Sold to the man in the
black mustache."
"How'll we tell Mom?" I asked
Dad. "We'll think about that to
morrow," he said.
The author of the above theme
for the English class at Alice
Deal Junior high is Judy Morse,
brown-haired daughter of Senator
Wayne Morse of Oregon.
Seldom Loses
The senator is a lover of fine
horses. But he doesn't love 'em
so much that he wants to lose
money on 'em. And he seldom
does.
He took Sir Guy Laurel to the
Oregon state fair and quickly
got out of the dog house with
"Mom" when the horse, which
stands 16 hands, won everything
in sight and promises to show a
fine profit at stud.
The senator is proud because
the incident backs up his claim
to the title of "scratchin" dirt
farmer." He's been trading horses
and getting the best of most deals
since he was a kid. When he was
,n un nitul a tlnev hnrap trader
out of a fine livegaited saddle
horse DacK on me mum?
in Wisconsin. . -
Financed Education
Animals rabbits, guinea pigs
and ponies financed his educa
tion up to and including a couple
of college degrees.
Today with the senator, It's
more of a hobby than a means of
providing three squares a day for
his wife and three daughters. But
he's still as sharp on a deal as
ever. He has to be, because Mrs.
Morse, who . knows something
about horses herself, keeps an
eye on the books.
Every penny spent for oats,
hay, carts and nosebags is care
fully entered in the "horse book"
in his office in the senate office
building. The "book" is kept by
Miss Genevieve Cooper, of Port-
labd, Ore.,' his secretary.
''That one has to be accurate,"
he said, "because Mom is liable
to come in to Inspect it at any
time. Miss Cooper also keeps my
records for the internal revenue
department. I don't pay any at
tention to those. Mom wouldn't
understand 'em, anyhow." ,
Mrs. Morse and all three daugh-.
ters are expert horsewomen. Not
long ago, the senator had enter
ed "Spice of Life," one of the fin
est American bred saddle horses,
in a big show in Virginia. He had
ridden the sleek chestnut through
four of five events and was call:
ed to the telephone on an emer
gency. He asked Ed, an old-time
handler in the ring, to mount
"Spice" in the finale. The han
dler was afraid of the critter, so
daughter Nancy, aged 17, took
over and won.
