Finley power and the real source of power is the general student body, and the Council represents that body. Judging from present conditions, it must be admitted that this is not true. The students have only as much voice in affairs as the governing body per- mits them. The present government of the university is distinctly aristocratic. The balance of power resides with the Board of Regents, which is absolute, only subject ultimately to the wishes of the people of the 'commonwealth whom it represents. This board dele- gates certain power to the body known' as the University Senate, comprised of the majority of the faculty. This body as far as general university adminis- tration is concerned, is supreme. This has led to the generally ac- cepted theory that the Senate is the source and fountain head of all power and that, to secure self-government, the student body must appeal to the University Senate for power. This is the -view which the St'udent Council has taken and its petition for extend- ed power has for some time adorned the table of that eminent body. At this point the Student Council, granted to be the representative of the student, places itself beyond the sym- pathies of the students who elected it. Instead of going to the source of the real power, for the students as citizens of this and other states do possess real power which cannot be abrogated by any faculty decisions, this body has placed itself in a position ,where it seems to assume a position as a buff- er committee, a favored creation of the Senate instead of a representative stu- dent council. The Council decries constantly the lack of sympathy upon the part of the students, in the way' of moral and fi- nancial support. Yet has it ever tak- en the proper means to correct this lack of enthusiasm? -Not noticeably. Instead, it has turned its back con- stantly upon the student body to crave consideration at the hands of the Sen- ate. This is the real reason why we do not have self-government at the pres- ent time. The faculty has judged the student' body by the Student Council and found it wanting, not prepared to take care of itself. When the real power naturally resides in the general body of students, it. seems strangethat the Council should have taken such an attitude.

The students are fully capable of it and strongly desire the same. This basic idea, underlying everything American, that the individual should. be allowed to male laws and execute; them and have a voice in the matter of taxation, is scarce in most of the universities, including Michigan. No sooner do we make the above as- sertion than the immediate question arises, how can this be accomplished. Must it come through the governing body of the university or through the students themselves? The Michigan Daily believes that it can be success- fully accomplished by the students through their representative, the Coun- cil.
