fts, checks, and prom-

equitable," declared Bertrand Russell,
the distinguished English philosopher
and social economist, in an interview
yesterday. We had the honor and
pleasure of an hour's conversation
with the famous visitor and found that
his reputation as a brilliant intellect-
ual radical has a substantial founda-
tion.
Mr. Russell believes that only by
the universal adoption of socialism can
world peace be achieved. The LeagueE
of Nations' futility, he thinks, has been
demonstrated beyond questiod and he
forsees no possible change in the pres-
ent world chaos "until we extend our
present political democracy to eco-
nomic democracy which is far morel
important."
Mr. Russell's unequivocal denuncia-
tion of the League was supported by
reference to several incidents of its
jurisdiction. "The Aaland Islands,"
he asserted, "were given to Finland.
despite the fact that the inhabitants
desired union Nwith Sweden. The
Ieague's settlement of the Silesian;
question was entirely unfair while the
handling of the Corfu incident revealed'
pitiable weakness. Under the League,
the disposition of Syria was farcical.
The Syrians desired first, independ-
ence; second, government by America;
third, by England. The League of Na-

tions gave the country to France, the
one country which Syria had made it
absolutely clear, she did not wish to
becone attached to. Furthermore, the
administration of the Saar valley has
been outrageously tryannical; a man
is sentenced to five years' imprison-
ment for speaking ill of the Treaty of
Versailles.-
"Lord Robert Cecil," continued Mr.
Russell, "is a misguided idealist who
does not realize that one can't re-
form the world overnight. The Ver-
sailles treaty was utterly bad and I
look for no relief from the existing
world turmoil which has followed it,
until socialism is adopted. The recent
war was primarily waged for econom-
ic reasons. The United States joined
the war because the foreign loans of
her great bankers were becoming en-
dangered by Germany's threatened vic-
tory. The outstanding result of Mr..
Wilson's intercession in world' poli-
tics has been to help make the world
safe "from" democracy. The Amqi-
can people, duped by a subsidized
press, excited to patriotic fervor by
capitalist propaganda, fought for a
cause which was detrimental to their
best interests the perpetuation of gov-
ernment by financial oligarchies.."
To bring about the socialist regime,
Mr. Russell proposes the nationaliza-
tion of the great natural resources and
transportation of this country, a step
which he pronounced easy of accom-

Students who are interested in the

Coolidge clubs have been formed in

that students interested in national po-I

that an effective group may be organ-

Former secretary Daniels was before

It was at his request that congress
passed the act of June 4, 1920, giving
the naval secretary controlof the nav-
al reserves and authorizing him to1
iease lands and to sell, store or ex-
change oil extracted from the re-
serves.
One of the chief contentions of the
government in the oil cases has been
that President Harding's executive or-
der of May, 1921, transferring control1
of the reserves to the interior secre-
tary was in violation of this statute
and the leases to Harry F. Sinclair
and E. L. Doheney were invalid for
that and other reasons.
Heralded Filmi

3No more remarkable, epochal, unfor-
getable, haunting and obsessionat piece
of eccentric, bizarre, cynical character
acting than that contributed to the
"Hunchback of Notre Dame' by Lo .
Chaney has ever been seen on eitherr
stage or screen, according to New York:
critics in their reviewsof the much
talked-of' film which is coming to: the
Arcade theater next Sunday. If' Vic-
tor Hugo could see this picturization
of his famous "Quasimodo", he would
be amazed by the product of his own
imagination.
Lon Chaney's is the sort of a charac-
terization about which you will dream,
the sort of a monstrosity, leering, cyn-
ical which you cannot forget, the pivot
around which revolves the tremendous
episodes of a really marvelous picture.
This "Quasimodo" will give you the
whole bag of human emotions; nobody
can overlookthim; he is as solid as
Notre Dame itself.
The film in its entirety gives you the
very marrow of Victor Hugo, without
having to fish for it yourself. The
meat is all there and perfectly screen-
ed. The finale, the cessation of the
Hunchback's activities with the por-
tentous bell, as he rings it for the last
time, is the ne plus ultra of art. Lon
Chaney has stamped himself an artist,
and his work in this picture caninot
die.

Because of the attractiveness of the

deal of consideration, but finally de-

Graduating from the University in
1912, Professor Eich took graduate
