J a n u a r y 13, 1928 Vol. X I I , No. 15 STUDENTS SHOULD EXPRESS OPINIONS ON THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT At last, an opportunity for all discontented souls to speak their minds, and to have a hearing, is al hand. Myskania, altho a secret honor society, is now at your service. W h e t h e r you think Myskania is being chosen satisfactory a t present, or, whether you wish for a new m e t h o d is for you to say. P e r h a p s you feel that by the proposed method of electing Myskania members, the student body is better represented, since a committee made u p of m e m b e r s from each of the four classes, limits Myskania, by forcing her to choose her eleven, twelve or thirteen members from a list of eighteen Juniors, which it draws up. P e r h a p s yon feel that Myskania is "getting out of a lot of work". In any case, speak now or forever hold your peace! T h e r e is nothing so a n n o y i n g a n d distressing as a few individuals in a g r o u p w h o a r e dissatisfied with tilings as they are and who, instead of making their suggestion and criticism, out in t h e open, at the proper time, merely g r u m b l e and complain to a few of their friends, without even trying to avail themselves of the opportunity to help set things right. As college students, then, let us hear what yon honestly think, after careful thought and consideration, t o be the very best for all concerned. APPOINTMENT OF EMANUEL GREEN AS DELEGATE WISE, GOCHRAN DECLARES To the Editor:— The recent appointment by the exeettl committee of the student association, of Emanuel Creei represent State College at the congress of National F ation of College Students at Lincoln, Nebraska, should, I believe, he highly endorsed by the student body. Although the appointment of Green comes somewhat as a surprise, it nevertheless shows the excellent discriminating ability of the executive coin mitlee. I say surprise, because Green is not very widely k n o w n here. T h i s is not due to the lack of any of those o u t s t a n d i n g marks of personality that distinguish be tween individuals of ordinary and those of interesting personalities; but rather to a native anil instinctive conservatism, However, those who know Mr, (ireeu per sonally, and, 1 count myself fortunate to he among that number, appreciate those qualities which led lo his hi-iu_selected to the very important mission as the ambassador of Slate to Ihe N. F. C. S. convention. We are confident thai he acquitted himself with dis tinetioil and dignified the name of State College before those student representatives assembled in the west. T h a t this appointment was a signal and dihtim live honor, none will doubt, also thai it could have been filled by anyone of a number of eminently qualified m e m b e r s of Stale, no one will gainsay, hut to improve upon the selection would have been difficult. In this belief, Louis W o l n e r a n d several other repre sentative m e m b e r s of State concur with me, I am sure. Green has o u r sincere c o n g r a t u l a t i o n s ami the c,\ ecutive committee of the student association our com liieiidation on their selection. Waren K. Cochrane, ',)(). Dean Metzler Gains World Honors For His Life Work In "Treatise On Determinants" W I L L ENGLAND A N D U . S . C L A S H THE BONAPAR1ES M A K E F A U X P A S By W . M. F Peace or War? By Lt. Commander J. M. Kenworthy, M. P . With an introduction by H . G. Wells. $2.50. 338 pages. Indexed. N e w Y o r k : Boni and Liveright, That Great Britain and the United States could between them outlaw war is the thesis of Lt. Commander Kenworthy. T h e next war will be far more destructive than the recent World War, he declares, and civilization may crash from the strain. T h e fai" ire of the Geneva naval limitation conference is a grave warning to the "blood is thicker than water, hands across the sea" speakers, the author holds, l i e describes a possible war between Great Britain and the United States. He predicts thai Canada would be a neutral. Hut the book is not a scare-maker alone; Kenworthy is not merely an alarmist. He pleads for world peace pacts, anil proposes that the United States, Great Britain, Switzerland and the Netherlands, which among them control a large share of the world's raw material, declare war outlawed. H e would have them refuse to aid any combatant nation. Other nations would adhere to the agreement, and its force would be tremendous. Concerning the passage showing how this union could suppress war through their combined control of the finances and vital raw materials, II. G. Wells writes: "It should be given out as a dictation lesson in every school in the English-speaking world." Few people can speak with the authority of the Lieutenant Commander. He is a member of parliament, heir to Baron Strabolgi, a Laborite, and during the World W a r commanded a British warship. The hook is hound lo set people thinking. It will cause more comment than Upton Close's Revolt of A .... Although it deals principally with the Anglo-A\ierican relations, it also treats in a capable manner the other phases of international discord. The .status of civilians, the case l-r th- ibdition ; i submarine war I-are, new nationalism md imperialism, anil other pertinent topics receive attention. Warfare can be abolished as have been dueling and feudalism, the author points out. His suggestions are worthy of consideration by international statesmen; he may be pointing the path to a near-Utopia. John Paul Jones: Man of Action. By Phillips Russell. §5. 314 Pages. New Y o r k : Brentano's. Phillips Russell, author of the highly .successful interpretative life of Benjamin Franklin, has taken John Paul Jones from his particular niche in revolutionary history, dusted him off, and brought out his bright colors once more. He dispels certain popular legends, and presents the commodore in a new light of mate on a slave ship, refugee among pirates, and a conquering hero in Parisian salons. Jones, we read, was "celebrated everywhere for the neatness and gallantry of his at:ire' ! —a striking contrast to the popular conception of an uncouth sailorman. The admiral is likened to Napoleon, in that "both were small men—soft in the hands of women—both were egotists". Jones was misunderstood by his generation: "in his frantic endeavors to make therri sec his own visions, he was compelled to prod them incessantly, and these proddings sapped his energy", The book not only deals with his services to America, but embraces his world influence. We see him in France, and as an admiral of Russia under Catherine the Great. Wherever there was action, there was Jones. Mr, Russell has spent several years in Europe, and there gathered much of the hitherto unknown data used in the hook. He has done much to make the tomb at Annapolis a national shrine. One thrills at the exploits of Jones: it's as_ good as a pirate story. W e read that : "Though he was first of all a man of action, lie was intuitively an artist. With ships and men, instead of paint, pen or chisel, he strove to make real his dreams of a glorious world". Mr. Russell's previous standard is upheld, and perhaps surpassed.
