ersity President Tells
lege Men About S. America j
An interview with IRfus B. von'
EleinSmid, president of the Uni-
versity of Southern California.-
BY MILTON DREYFUSS
Within the past few years and es-
pecially since the opening of the Great
War, South America has loomed in-
creasingly to the college men of this
country as the land of opportunity.
"Go south, young man" press, pulpit,
and Chambers of Commerce admonish
us. This recent interest in South Am-
erica is evidenced in the colleges byj
the great popularity which Spanish'
language courses now have in prac-
tically all our universities.
Student Opinion
Each student takes it upon himself
to assure confidently every other
student of the wonderful opportuni-!
ties that await in South America; and
although definite information as to
these many opportunities seems to be
conspicuous y 'lacking, most of us
have succeeded in convincing our-
selves that these opportunities do
exist
But actually, what are the oppor-
tunities in Soth America along scien-,
tific and commercial lines for college-
trained men? That's the question the
writer put recently to Dr. von Klein-
Smid, formerly head of the University
of Arizona and now president of the
University of Southern California.
Dr. von KleinSmid had but recent-
ly returned from an extensive trip tol
the west coast republic of South Am-1
erica. The visit was made under the!
enco ragement of the United States'

According to Hon. Henry Curran,
ex-president of the borough of Man-I
hattan, who recently lectured at the;
University, the value in going into.'
politics lies in doing good for our fel-t
lowmen and knowing how to do it.
"The political game is decidedly anj
unprofitable one, and should not be
undertaken to the exclusion of all oth-
er occupations, unless, one is finan-
cially fit before he goes into politics,"
said Mr. Curran,
Politicians StupidI
"Political stupidity is the one great t
fault among political office holders'
and office seekers today. That is1
where the college man is needed, for
he is more intellectually fit to under-
take' the tasks of representing the .
peopletin their interests and repre-
senting them properly. There are too
many conflicts among the leaders of
party machines today," according to
Mr. Curran. "Men who are leaders
of the people were meant to be lead-'
ers. We have capable men active in
the business world, men of intelligent'
calibre, who are eligible to be leaders,
of the people, yet there are very few
leaders in politics today. Men of real
intelligence are needed today, now, to
form a real human political machine
that can function entirely for the in-!
terest of the people."
Mr. Curran explained why it was
that there were not more capable peo-
ple in politics. Since the demand is
there. There should be some answei
to the demand. According to Mr. Cur-'
ran, the reason that people don't go
extensively into politics is because of
spent, but nevertheless it goes.
indirect taxation is the means
which it is taken.
"The true value in going into p
tics is primarily gained in doing g
for your fellowmen. It is your
personal self-satisfaction wherein
value of going into politics lies.
yet do not let it be entirely a
of heartwork as it is, the case wi
great number of politicians, or
versa, but let it be a combinatio
heartwork with headwork. Our sp;
dzd country must be managed b:
capable men as those who lead
business industries, to that call t
should be a few to answer."
