Up to Oregon State
F as seems probable, the invitation to Dr. George F. Zook
of Akron University (Ohio) to visit Oregon and look over
its educational situation, means the definite abandonment of the
plan to make Dr. Kerr chancellor, then the next move in this
effort to bring order out of our educational chaos, is up to the
alumni of Oregon State college.
For in that Kerr action the alumni of the University cer
tainly did their part, in sacrificing their personal inclinations,
for the common educational good, and that it failed, is no fault
of theirs. Now if future developments show it DID fail, then
it will be directly up to the 0. S. C. alumni, to exhibit the same
splendid spirit of unselfish public service, and give their support
to the alternate proposal. .
"We heartily agree with the Oregon Journal in its praise of
this action by the alumni of the University : -
"Has anybody noticed the offer of peace and good will In
higher education held out by Important members of the alumni
of the University of Oregon?
"It wa action of big men, No higher-minded move In behalf
, of itate welfare has been made In Oregon.
"The educational antagonisms in this state have been and are
distressing. The rivalries and bitterness between friends of the
two major Institutions have been and are wrong, are harmful,
are disagreeable for everybody In the state. They are the subject
of unfavorable comment outside the state. In the last three or .
four years they have grown In bitterness and factionalism until
they have become destructive. . -
, "Aa a result, the system of higher education In the state Is In
near chaos with change and modification of the new unified
plan actually proposed and all kinds of schemes and revolts In
the air.
. "It Is in the mire of such conditions that members of the .
Oregon Alumni association came forward with a generous pro
: posal for peace. Among them were such widely known and
highly esteemed men as Leslie Scott, Portland; Judge Lawrence
Harris, Eugene; Clarence Bishop, Portland; Eugene Kelty, Klam
ath Falls; E. R. Bryaon, Eugene; Merle Chessman, Astoria, ftdgar
Smith. Portland; Richard Smith, Eugene; Carl Washburne,
Eugene, and many others of like standing, Including Oregon
alumni from all parts of the state. -
"Their proposal was for the board of higher education to
make Dr. Kerr of Oregon State college, chancellor of all the
Institutions under the new unified system. Their thought, as ,
' they expressed It, was to get also tor their own Institution the
educator who achieved remarkable success In the administration
of Oregon State college.
"The point In this article la not to be a discussion of Presi
dent Kerr. The thought here Is not to point out Dr. Kerr's '
knowledge of Oregon, Oregon needs and Oregon education.
"The object here Is to take notice of th splendid proposal
for peace In education, for harmony In the educational system
undertaken by Illustrious leaders, among the Oregon university
alumni. They are an example of dedication to state welfare,
They-reflect a spirit that Is a credit to their great alma mater. ,
Their proposal for a lasting peace could not do otherwise than (
be a challenge and an appeal to members of Oregon State
, alumni to come half way and clasp hands In friendship, good
will and mutual helpfulness In conserving Oregon education and
In providing for the educational system and the educational
Institutions a defense against violent movements and revolu
tionary changes that now threaten to tear down the whole
educational structure." 1

Number 22
By
CHARLES BUKTRON BOBBINS
Former Assistant Secretary of War
It Is a well known fact, familiar
to most Bturnts of history, that un
prepared nesa In the United States
has been one of the main contrib
uting causes to all of our foreign
wars, and this In spite of the warn
ing first Issued by Oeorge Washing
ton In those memorable words: "My
fiends. In time of peace prepare for
war," and reiterated by him In many
of his messages to congress and pub
lic addresses.
National leaders, following Wash
ington's administration, refused to
believe In any form of preparedness
and the war of 1813 suited. At the
opening of that war the regular army
had been reduced to less than 7000
men and the navy to only eight
ships, four of them forty-fours, and
a fleet of gunboats which had been
built for river and harbor protection,
which, It was discovered at the out
break of the war, could not put to
sea, and yet with the army and navy
In this condition we declared war on
one of the mightiest nations In the
world, certainly the strongest In sea
power.
It was fortunate for the United
States that the resources of Great
Britain, Including bot,h her army and
navy, were being used In the great
Napoleonic struggle then going on In
Europe. She could 111 afford to send
ships of war or trnlned soldiers to
far-off America, ynt so firm was the
conviction In the European mind that
America could not be "kicked into a
fight" that embargoes against our
shlpa and Impressment of our sailors
had gone on for years almost undis
turbed. An almost Identical situation pre
sents Itself so far as regards the war
with Mexico. Santa Ana had a pow
erful and well equip pea army and
felt he could look with disdain on
the despised Yankee, who was not
sufficiently Interested In the welfare
of .his country to provide sn effectual
force for national defense. The war
would have been over in six months
had the United Ststee possessed an
army and navy which her slae and
resources would well have permitted
st that time. We won that war with
untrained troops, but at a tremend
ous loss of life made necessary by
throwing them Into the battle line
without sufficient preparation.
If they made the concern profitable
wages would come back. They did
it, working six hours a day, seven
days a week. The management says
the Increased leisure, freedom from
factory monotony, enjoyed by the
men, accounts for an unusual pro
duction record.
Other employes might consider
thst. The five-day week, demanded
by the federation of labor, with an
eight or even six-hour dsy, If ca
pacity of machinery should make
necessary, may be found as produc
tive in the long run, as the old long
week day with tired worker.
U. H. Karkcr. writes to his stock
are most frequently dubbed "cold"
In their early stage), that we adopt
the term "crl," pronounced kree,
coined from the Initial letters of
the too cumbersome phrase "Com
mon Respiratory Infection." This
term conveys all that the eel word
"cold" can possibly convey to any
Intelligent mind, and besides it
carries a wholesome acknowledgment
that your trouble, whichever spe
cific respiratory Infection It may
turn out to be. Is probably , Infec
tious In character, and hence all
your friends and associates may
avoid catching It from you, If you
are that species of animal that pre
fers to keep about during the early
stage of the Illness, spreading the
infection Indiscriminately.
Please run over that once more,
particularly you health officers and
health board executives. It wont
hurt you any to know what we are
teaching millions of people. If you
find any flaw In our teachings
about this, let me know. Or better,
challenge me to debate the question,
and so show me up and stop me
before I do any more harm.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.
Weak Minded,
Tell me how to overcome psych as
thenia and neurasthenia. The doc
tors say that Is what I have- L. L.
Answer Fsychasthenla means
weaknes of mind. Polite way of
calling you half-witted or moron,
Neurasthenia means weakness of
nerve. Old medical dodge soothes
the dumb patient's anxiety as to
what alls him when doctor hasn't
the faintest notion.
Progressive St. Vitus' Dance.
Young man aged 21 seems well.
His mother died In an Insane hos
pital. Having had St. Vitus dance
for years. His grandmother had
the aame trouble and one of bis
sisters Is developing it at the age
of 35 years. If he marries would
his children Inherit It? D. G.
Answer Probably yes. That Is not
St. Vitus' dance, but Huntington's
chores, a different condition. There
Is nothing heritable about acute
chorea, the common St. Vitus' dance
of children. Nor has it any bearing
on or relation to the mental Integ
rity. Huntington's usually develops
at a mature age and often termi
nates In dementia. It la hereditary.
A good many of us remember the
outbreak of the Spanish war. At that
time tho United States possessed a
regular army of only 35,000 men,
deemed Insignificant by the govern
ment of Spain. Anyone who will
read the Spanish Journals and peri
odicals of that time will see that the
Idea was firmly fixed In the minds
of the Spaniards that the people of
the United States who were unwill
ing to provide adequate force for
national defense could not be serlou
ly considered as successfully oppos
ing the large and well trained army
of Spain. And It was this Idea, firm
ly fixed In the minds of the Spanish
people, that caused them to continue
with their policy of reconcentratlon
and atrocities In Cuba, regardless of
protests from the United State, a slt
utalon which eventually resulted In
the Spanish war.
There would have -been no war had
we possessed an adequate army and
navy. The same situation confronted
the nation at the outbreak of the
world war. Had the United States
possessed an army and navy com
mensurate with our population,
wealth and resources, Germany would
never have resorted to unrestricted
submarine warfare and the agony of
the world war would .have been
spared us.
It would, therefore, seem to a
straight thinking mind that there
should be no argument on the ex
penditure of a part of the national
income on what might well be term
ed "national insurance," If by doing
so we can In the future avoid be
coming lnyplved in those melancholy
and bloody struggles which time and
again have caused the civilization to
totter. The horror and hldeousness
of war are infinitely better known
to a soldier who has been In actual
conflict than could possibly be known
to anyone who has not experienced
It, and through personal experience
as well as study and thought, his be
lief as to the necessity of an ade
quate national defense should control
the policy of the nation, instead of
suggestions made either by dreamers
or by men and women who are act
ively Interested In the disintegration
of our national government.
No one believes In his .heart that
the dawn of universal peace Is near
at hand, or even approaching, and If
In dallying with this thought we
strip the nation of Its vital defenses
snd thereby cause Its ruin, we have
only ourselves as a nation to blame.
