CURIOSITY
Events of the past week afforded a
striking example of the laxity with
which students avail themselves of
their opportunities. A straw ballot
was taken on the campus with the in-
tention of finding out which of
four World Court plans was pre-
ferred. During the vote, however,
one constantly heard such remarks as
"I don't know enough about this
World Court movement to vote on it."
Anyone making such a statement,
is admitting the laxity of his interest
in affairs of vital importance to the
future peace of the world. Every op-
portunity has been given the students
to acquaint themselves with the sit-
uation. No less than ten talks have
been given on the various phases of
the World Court question in the last
week . No less than six full columns
have been published in The Daily re-
garding those talks, giving notice of
them beforehand, and reviewing them
later. Beside this, there has been a
large amount of publicity given in
both The Daily and metropolitan pa-
pers concerning the recent remarks
of Senator William E. Borah and stu-
dent conferences held in other uni-
versities.
Wednesday night 78 people went to
the Natural Science auditorium to
hear one of the country's leading au-
thorities on international law explain
several of the most perplexing prob-
lems of the world today. A professor
who is accustomed to speaking before
regular classes of four or five hun-
dred-it seemed ridiculous for him to
give such an enlightening and worth-
while talk before such a small group.
At the same time three foreign grad-
uate students gave the audience an
unusual opportunity to hear first hand
information on the attitudes of other.
nations toward world peace.
Tuesday night a similar spectacle
was produced at Hill auditorium when+
barely enough people to fill one sec-
tion of the main floor went to hear
an interpretation of the World Court
supporters' arguments for the inter-
national tribunal by a representative
of the National World Court commit-
tee, Ex-Gov. William E. Sweet, of
Colorado.
In spite of these opportunities, stu-
dents are forced to admit that they
don't know enough about the World
Court to vote on the ptraw ballot!
Such admissions of ignorance are
inexcusable. They not only admit a
lack of knowledge of the World Court,
they admit a lack . of intellectual
curiosity in regard to matters of
world importance. Ex-Governor Sweet
commends the rising tide of, student
interest in international questions.
Does the support given the Michigan
conference indicate that the students
of this University merit any of that
commendation?
TAIBoURINE
Before we will take our pen in
hand again, many of our esteemed
readers will have seen "Tambourine"
the much heralded Union Opera. We
are taking our sebatical leave of ab-
sence next week, and so we fear that
you will be interested to note that
there will be no more ROLLS until
next Wednesday's issue. This leave
will enable us to make a trip to Texas
or wherever it was and investigate
this rumor about Zilch.
What we were going to say, is that
we hope that you can wait until that
date to read the review of this new
spectacle which is coming to the
Whitney. We plan to send an adequate
staff to cover it fully and in detail.

THIS IS NOT A PUZZLE PICTURE

" " -
There! we have one too. Every de-
partment in this paper has run the
pictures of the Opera, except this one.
We feel that we cannot be left out of
this great photographic contagion
which seems to be sweeping this of-
fice.
We don't know anything about this
boy except that his name is written
on the cut, so we are sure that that's
his name. He may, be in the orches-
tra, which we hear is to be in costume
this year, or he may dance or sing,
or whatever else they do in Operas.
Nevertheless his face appears in
everything about town that is printed,
so we join the mob. We are nothing
if not democratic.
* * *
Which reminds us of the good old
jest about some dignitary about the
country. It seems that some paper
spoke of him being "Nothing if not
Democratic" and a paper of the other
party copied this and added: "And he
is not Democratic."

.ENATE RULES
he Senate opens tomorrow,
the Vice-President of the United
States will actively inaugurate his
campaign for the revision of the Sen-
ate rule ~ ich at present allow un-
limn Ite and permit minorities
to so obstruct important legislation
that they occupy a position entirely
out of proportion to thei numerical
strength. Whatever the results of
his campaign may be, Mr. Dawes is
sure to figure prominently in the
newspaper reports, and the vice-
presidency will be removed from the
position o" political isolation that it
has occupied for so long.

burst with the
The new presiding officer of the
Senate has won the popular approval
of the people, who admire his char-
acteristic enthusiasm and disregard
for obstacles, and the efficiency with
which he has concluded several of his
campaigns, notably the Dawes settle-
ment of Europe's difficulties. And his
"Hell n'Maria" type of oratory ap-
peals to the American love of the
theatrical. The people will be back
of the Vice-President when he storms
that redoubt of time-honored customs
-the Senate.
As to whether the rules should be
changed, however, authorities differ.
While it is true that a very small
group of senators may conduct a fili-
buster that is capable of blocking
legislation desired by the majority,
1)th in the Senate and in the country
at large, such a condition is not espe-
cially harmful except in the case of
appropriations which are vitally
necessary.
The House of Representatives has
freed itself to a great extent from in-
cumbering rules and is able to act
with less chance of successful oppo-
sition by a minority. But the change
has resulted in the House becoming
more of a partisan battlefield and less
of a body which debates important
questions and is in possession of all
the relative facts when it finally
votes. A similar change in the Sen-
ate would allow the majority party
to rush legislation through both
houses without any real argument
on it at all-,and haste, while some-
times necessary, is usually unwise.
The American political system de-
pends on a system of checks and bal-
ANTI-FOREIGN?
To the Editor:
In his comment on the question of
extra-territoriality in China which I
referred to in my speech before the
International Students' Forum last
Wednesday evening, Professor Reeves
made some remarks which are so mis-
leading that, if left uncorrected, they
will cause serious misunderstanding
on the part of the American public of
the question at issue.
Professor Reeves said that China
granted extra-territoriality to foreign
powers herself because she desired
to have trade with these powers, and
because she wanted to use it as an in-
centive to induce foreigners to es-
tablish trade there. This statement
is far from the truth. China in the
past never desired to establish trade
with any foreign country. In fact
she wanted to keep her door closed,
for she was afraid that the foreign
powers would cause serious trouble
to her. She was forced to open her
door only after the Opium war with
Grea Britain. in 1840. The principle
of extra-territoriality was forced on
her by the British after that war.
The other foreign powers simply
took advantage of the privilege se-
cured by the British and demanded
the same, which China at that time
was helpless to refuse. She never
desired it and never welcomed it.'
Even if we grant that she had desired
it at that time, it does not follow that
she should not demand to have it
abolished now. Time has changed;
~situations have changed. The world
uand China have bothdmoved more
than eighty years. Moreover, the for-
eign powers have abused this special
privilege too far. The recent Shang-
hai and Canton massacres have more
than anything else justified China's1
demand of its immediate abrogation.

SLEEP
We just heard the story about the
man who entered the Dean's office in
a very questionable condition, stag-
gered into his presence and asked for
a drink. When he was questioned as
to whether he was intoxicated or not,
he answered that he was not but was
just very sleepy, and wanted to go
home to bed.
Unfortunately the Dean was not
conversant with the new theories of
sleep, so the student fared not so
well.
