'U' Must Bear Consequences
Of Legislature's Actions
THE UNIVERSITY and the state are out in
the cold again this year. University admin-
istrators have been saying this is the critical
year when we must have an adequate appro-
priation or face disaster. The University is
facing disaster.
It is becoming increasingly clear that the
the University will not receive the $4-5 million
boost it needs in the coming year's operating
budget. The income tax is dead. At best, the
state will limp along with a package of nui-
sance taxes. There is no prospect of more
than a $1-2 million boost for the University.
The University's answer to the state's cry for
economy is a tuition boost. Higher student
Squeeze
ONCE AGAIN Jews are caught in the switches
of history.
This time the Jews of Algeria are the un-
happy victims. Caught between nationalistic
Arabs seeking their independence and essential-
ly anti-semetic Europeans, the Jews have been
harrassed by both sides. Only Friday, the Asso-
ciated Press reported that six Moslems were
killed and two Jews wounded in clashes in Oran.
Six Moslems, the AP dispatch said, had sped
through the Jewish quarter in a car firing on
persons in the street. Returning Jewish fire
caused the car to crash killing the car's driver,
The rest were killed by gunfire.
This is not the first such incident in the
eight-year war where Jews had been attempt-
ing, as in the past, to stay neutral. Several
serious clashes between Arabs and Jews have
occurred in Algiers.
THEIR HISTORIC relations with the French
had not been better. The "colons" have
elected anti-semites to office for years and
during World War II enthusiastically supported,
the Vichy government decree revoking Jewish
citizenship.
This situation is not a new one for Judaism.
They have been caught between the nationalis-
tic East Europeans and the imperial Germans
and Austrians before World War I. The results
were only pogroms, mass immigration and in-
tensified hatreds that contributed to the
slaughter of the Nazi regime.
The prospects for Algerian Jews do not seem
any better. Not being European, they will not
be easily accepted in France and the new Al-
gerian government will probably ally itself with
the Arab League with its anti-Israel, anti-
semetic overtones.
Hopefully, the Algerian Jew can escape the
dilemma before it is too late. Immigration to
Israel seems the ohly feasible solution for de-
spite the nice words of the provisional Alger-
ian government in Tunis, conditions of Alger-
ian Jewry will not improve under the incoming
Arab regime.
-PHILIP SUTIN
fees, now almost a certainty, have, however,
provided legislators with an excuse for abdi-
cating their responsibilities. Instead of accept-
ing a deteriorating educational system as the
consequence of fiscal irresponsibility, the legis-
lators find it convenient to rail against out-of-
state students, and lack of economy in our
universities, and argue the necessity of a tui-
tion boost.
THE LEGISLATORS want a tuition boost.
After all, universities, with student fees, are
the only state institutions that have a sub-
stantial income outside state appropriations. In
a year when the legislators have decided that
the state will have no substantial new taxes, a
boost in tuition is the easy way out.
The legislators are interested in being re-
elected. Their constituents won't blame them
if tuition at the University goes up. They will
blame the Regents.
In short, the University has played right
into the hands of the Legislature. A' tuition
boost is the expedient way, the easy way out.
BUT THE UNIVERSITY can still come out
ahead. There are, after all, two alternatives:
boost tuition or cut enrollment. Paying $50
more is less painful than getting no educa-
tion at all. If the University would cut back
50 per cent in freshman admissions next fall,
the legislators would hear about it around
election time. The University would have an
excellent way of making its point about addi-
tional funds. And for those who remain at
the University, there would be an adequate
level of facilities and faculty available.
Such an action would be more than a vivid
symbol of the plight of the state's educational
institutions. It would be the beginning of a
flood of similar moves that would destroy the
artificial dam of nuisance taxes and non-sup-
port that have long characterized the legisla-
tors' attitudes. They yell about economy. Yet
they expect that state institutions will keep
on working at full capacity no matter how
little money they give them.
THIS BELIEF in fiscal witchcraft-that by
some miracle state institutions have always
worked and hence always will-would fall
apart. Other institutions would quickly follow
suit. Legislators-no. matter where they are
geographically based-expect to do nothing,
provide nothing and yet have a full level of
state services. What would happen if all the
state's institutions decided to limit themselves
to a realistic level of services?
If the University is to be a leader rather
than a follower in society, it must take over
the rejected responsibilities of the Legislature.
It must make the point that one must bear the
consequences of one's own actions. It must
begin with what could well be the most effec-
tive drive towards intelligent taxation and ap-
propriations this state has ever seen.

HENRY IV, PART 2
'U' Players Stage
'Adequate' Performance
T HE UNIVERSITY Player's production of "Henry IV, Part Two" which
opened last night, was an adequate portrayal of one of Shakespeare's
more disjointed plays.
The comic scenes kept the play from dragging interminably, which
it could have done, as the characters of Prince Hal and all the various
lords and earls are dry, sterile, and lacking in nobility.
Falstaff, played by David Hirvela, was quite good. He and Hostess
Quickly (Nancy Enggass) provided a rampaging comic element, with
considerable slapstick and wild running about on stage. The serious
sections of the play suffered, by contrast, greatly.
THE DULLEST scene in the production is where Prince Hal and
the King are working towards a reconciliation after Hal has appeared
too eager to get the crown. This is unfortunate, as it could be a moving
portrayal.
Justice Shallow, (David Saunders) Davy, (Terry Seebach) and
Justice Silence, (John Sargent) provided a quieter brand of comedy
than the Falstaffian, but even more amusing. Shallow and Silence
were charming, elfish old men with the most marvelous laughs. They
gave the audience the freshest portrayals in the production.
THE MAJOR problem of the play, was its minor characters. They
are either mechanical, ridiculous, melodramatic, or spoke with mouths
full of mush. But probably by the end of its run, "Henry" will have
gotten rid of some of the first-night nerves and settle down to a per-
formance worthy of the lovely costumes.

MAY FESTIVAL
Dvorak Mass Excellent
THE "REQUIEM MASS," Op. 89, of Antonin Dvorak, was beautifully
performed at the fifth concert of the May Festival Sunday night.
The Choral Union, soloists, and the Philadelphia Orchestra, conducted
by Thor Johnson, brought to life the little-known work and gave it an
exciting performance.
Dvorak, a zechoslovakian composer of the Romantic school, wrote
the "Requiem" between his "G Major Symphony" and the well-known
"New World" Symphony in E minor. The principal characteristic of the
Dvorak Requiem is the use of a motive of death which opens the "In-
troitus" and runs through the entire composition, reminiscent of the
idee ffxe of Berlioz.
The most outstanding feature of Sunday's concert was the control
and excellent choral tone and quality which the Choral Union displayed.
The chorus and its choirmaster, Lester McCoy, are certainly to be com-
mended for their fine performance.
The "Requiem" is a highly dramatic work which contains fire and
bravado. The performance was exciting throughout, but Thor Johnson
sacrificed beauty of sound and contrast of mood for fast tempi, par-
ticularly in the second part of the work.
ALL FOUR SOLOISTS sang with great artistry, although the "Re-
quiem" has no large solo arias as does Verdi's "Requiem". Phyllis Cur-
tin sang with a clear, sparkling vocal line and her brief duets with the
powerful contralto Lili Chookasian were perfectly lovely. Richard Lewis
and Donald Gramm completed the outstanding quartet.
Dvorak created a unique orchestration for the "Requiem" which
was particularly well-executed by the woodwind choir. The principal
flutist deserves special recognition for the beautiful, pure tone which
pervaded the woodwind passages.
It is unfortunate that the Dvorak "Requiem" has held such an
obscure place in choral literature. This performance proved that the
mass should take its place among those of Mozart, Brahms, and Verdi,

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR:
Religious Issue in Algeria
4I
To the Editor:
UNFORTUNATELY a news ar-
ticle has appeared in The Daily
which has introduced an issue into
the Algerian war of liberation that
does not belong there - the issue
is a religious one.
The article "Oran Jews, Arabs
Clash"-AP) stated that "ancient
animosity between Moslems and
Jews flared..." in Oran, that "the
trouble began when . . . five Mos-
lems sped through the Jewish
quarter firing on people in the
street . . .", that when "the car
crashed into a parked automobile,
killing the driver . . . four pas-
sengers ran down the narrow
streets and were killed by Jewish
gunfire."
ANOTHER account of the inci-
dent appeared in the Sunday New
York Times, (French Jail 400 in
Algiers Hunt for Terrorists" -
UPI) : "In one incident Secret
Army commandos killed a carload
of Moslem youths one by one .. .
five Moslem youths speeding down
a street ... ran into a Secret Army
ambush. A burst of machine-gun
fire killed the driver . . . the four
frightened survivors fled for their
lives but the Secret Army men
hunted them down and killed them
one by one in the narrow, twisting
Solution
THE EDITORS of the Tulsa
Tribune had tongue in cheek
-or did they?-when they told
the story of a man who went to
one of the senators from his :state
and said he wanted a job.
The senator pretended to think
a while, as some senators fre-
quently do, and then replied:
"Well, I'll tell you. There aren't
any jobs, but here's what I can
do. I'll get up a committee to in-
vestigate why there are no jobs,
and you can be head of the com-
mittee at a salary of $10,000 a
year."
That's one way to solve the
unemployment problem. Another
way-and one which isn't so dif-
ferent when you stop to think
about it-is to start a crash public
works program.

side streets." Obviously, there is.
no reference to Jewish-Moslem
animosity, alleged or otherwise.
Somehow one account of this in-
cident has perhaps inadvertently
given strength to a traditional
colonialist rational that if Algeria
receives her independence, then
minorities, in this case the Jewish
community, will be persecuted.
And yet, one need but look at Tu-
nisia for one example of an Arab
country where Jews today are
completely integrated into the so-
cial, economic, and political life
of the country.
* * *
OF ALL minorities, the 150,000
Jews of Algeria are the most close-
ly tied to the struggle for inde-
pendence. Historically they are
among the oldest inhabitants and
the history of Algeria is free from
blots created by religious perse-
cution - except those atrocities
committed by the French, parti-
cularly under the Vichy regime.
The first declaration of the Al-
gerian provisional government on
Sept. 26, 1958, stated that the "Al-
gerian Republic will make no dis-
tinction due to race or religion."
On Dec., 1959, a special pamphlet
put out by the FLN stated the role
of Algerian Jews ". . . in fact and
in law as members of the Algerian
community . . ." and it pointed out
that homage was due to those Al-
gerians of Jewish faith who were
participating in the struggle for
freedom, especially the many "now
suffering in the prisons and camps
together with their Moslem com-
patriots."
I am sure that most observers
are able to see that the AP article
will fail to aid the colonialist de-
vice of divide to rule.

To the Editor:
I HAVE just received a graceful
note from Phylliss Curtin, solo-
ist in the May Festival. She in-
forms me that the Troilus and
Cressida excerpts which appeared
in Friday's concert have been re-
corded by Donald Lewis and Eliza-
beth Schwarzkopf. She does not
recall the recording company, but
believes it was made available
within the last five years. I gladly
pass on this information to those
who have been misinformed by
my article a few days ago.

Tuition .
To the Editor:
THE QUESTION of a probable
tuition rise at the University is
causing much concern to parents
who want their children to enjoy
a top education at this institution.
The concern is greatest among
those who are working their way
through school and who can hard-
ly pay the existing tuition cost.
However, as much as a rise in
tuition may cause purses to squeal,
it is indispensable if we are to con-
tinue enjoying a quality educa-
tion.
* * *
THE UNIVERSITY'S top facul-
ty need and deserve salaries which
are commensurate with their ex-
cellence.
If the Legislature is not willing
to foot the bill, we as the benefi-
ciaries of its services must pay for
it. Otherwise this great institu-
tion of learning will suffer a dras-
tic decline in quality. This we can
not and will not allow to happen.

Welfare
REUTERS reports that a man in
Blackburn, England, who had
been on the waiting list for an
appendicitis operation for five
years recently received a card from
the hospital asking if he was "still
interested."
The story was told by a physi-
cian, a spokesman for the British
Medical Association, who was de-
scribing waiting lists at British
hospitals under thestate-run na-
tional health service.
He said the only way to alleviate
the situation would be to have
shorter hours and better salaries
at hospitals, better buildings and
more facilities. But he had no idea
where the money, would come
from; perhaps, he said, a lottery
could raise some.

STRAUSS PROGRAM:

Judiciary Action Arbitrary
fON TUESDAY, May 1, the resident advisor of
Cooley House in East Quadrangle suspended
the house judiciary without giving prior notice
either to the house council or to the residents.
Although there was some justification for
the action itself, the undemocratic, arbitrary
and secretive manner in which the matter was
treated cannot help but create an atmosphere
of distrust and resentment among those con-
cerned with the purpose, operation and future
of student government on this campus.
The operation of an effective student judi-
ciary system assumes the careful, democratic
selection of responsible public officials for the
enforcement of just and reasonable laws.
These elements were almost wholly lacking
in the operation of the judiciary in question.
The judiciary, as was readily apparent, was in-
effective in dealing with the problems it was
designed to remedy - the announced cause
of the resident advisor's action.
THE MEMBERS of the judiciary were select-
ed from among a group of sophomore appli-
cants at the beginning of the school year. No
provision is made in the house constitution for
the impeachment or dismissal of the judiciary
by the resident advisor; once again, as they
were so often, responsible people interested in
student government are met by the "implied"
or "natural" powers of the quadrangle admin-
istration.
It was just this sort of arbitrary, secretive
action that precipitated the food riot of the
Editorial Stafff
year before last. The natural objection to the
action in question arises from two causes:
1) The fact that the removal of an appoint-
ive body is the traditional function of the
authority which appointed it.
2) The fact that the action was taken in a
manner which renders it objectionable.
The blame for the incident cannot be laid
at any one door. The house council, by virtue
of its poor selection of judic members, and
the house constitution, which limits the oppor-
tunity for obtaining better qualified people,
are partly to blame. The administration, by
virtue of its subtle control ("recommendation")
of the judic, doesn't contribute to the strength
of its public image.
T HE LARGEST share of the blame, however,
rightfully falls upon the resident advisor
and his superiors. It was the action of the resi-
dent advisor and the fact that such arbitrary
action has been sanctioned by the administra-
tion in the past, that caused this whole re-
grettable incident.
The behavior and effectiveness of the judi-
ciary notwithstanding, it was the duty of the
resident advisor to advise the members of the
house as to the situation, either directly or
through the house council, and to seek its opin-
ion as to a proper solution. The fact that the
house council, the group that appointed the
judic, was not even informed of the action in
advance, certainly limits its effectiveness as
a policy making body.
If the role of student government is to be a
signifiicant one on this campus, some oppor-
tunity for intelligent action must exist. If its
power is to be so easily disregarded, let the
administration abondon the hypocritical facade
of student self-government it is perpetrating.
F STUDENT government is to be effective,
its role must be respected on every level. The
judic was clearly ineffective, but was it equit-
able to deprive the members of the house of
their right to govern themselves, (or at least be
consulted about that government), because of
the ineffectiveness of a few?
It was the vesonnnibility of the resident ad-
Present Early Works
ANOTHERMay Festival is history. Carrying out the idea of featuring
the music of one composer or one country at each concert, Sunday
night's program was an all Richard Strauss night,
Strauss's creative life overlaps late Wagner, all of Debussy, Bartok
and most of Stravinsky. The three works which were programmed are
from the first 34 years of his life. At this time, he was considered a
radical composer.
As a result of the personnel and the tastes of its conductor, an or-
chestra becomes identified with characteristic predispositions toward
the performance of works. The Philadelphia Orchestra inclines toward
a romantic and comparatively light sound -'somewhat Venetian or
French. However, the 'music of Richard Strauss is thoroughly heavy
German in nature. This richness is not congruent with the Philadel-
phia's more characteristic sweetness,
That particular orchestras are more appropriate for particular types
of music is simple fact. There were times when.the beautiful sound of
the Philadelphia string section entered and one almost expected to hear
a Johann Strauss waltz begin. The few times in "Ein Holdenleben"
when former lead trumpet Samuel Krauss' playing was prominent one
wished that he had not given up the first chair. His strong full trumpet
tone would have made many of the brass climaxes more effective.
THE SECOND WORK on the program was 'Burleske in D Minor for
piano and orchestra," which was publicly disinherited by the composer,
and rightly so. It is a brilliant showpiece for piano which utilizes the
four tympani more melodically and prominently than any other orches-
tral piece which this reviewer has heard. Perhaps Strauss has written
only one piano piece which could have been utilized on this program.
Otherwise, one could think of many other concertos of musical merit
which would have been more rewarding for the talents of Gyorgy Sand-
er, the new head of this University's piano department.
The tone poem "Don Juan" was also performed by this competent
orchestra. After some concluding remarks of gratitude by Ormandy,
the series was closed with a rousing performance of "The Victors."
