- In attempting to criticize Russian propaganda--or*
ccucatLion, for certain well informed men have stated
that the difference between propaganda and educa-
tion is difficult to measure,.I wonder if the writer has
not modeled somewhat of a Jabberwocky himself. In
Russia, propaganda is used by the government to
further the ideal of a communist society; in this
country, therefore, it would seem that attempts at
flaying Russia and furthering the principles of Aier-
Icanism might. also make up one of Lewis Carrol's
strange monsters-perhaps a Jubjub bird. But when
one listens to the radio or reads a newspaper and
constantly hears the ballyhoo of "rugged individual-
ism," and of "a return to first principles," expounded
by men rolling in wealth and surrounded by millions
of starving people, one cannot help recalling the pic-
ture of the Walrus and the Carpenter sitting stuffed

To The Editor:
Next week's student council election offers inter-
esting possibilities. It may mark a turning point in
student affairs. These possibilities center about the
outcome of the protest now being heard from the
generally passive independent students. The Inde-
pendent Rebellion has gone so far that an effort is
being made to present a complete ticket of three
Literary school aophomores ror election to the Stu-
dent Council.
The trend of student politics in the past has been
marked by the complete failure of the independents
to secure representation in the student government.
They truthfully say that, due to lack of organization
among the non-fraternity students, there has been.
in. recent times, no real attempt to secure representa-
tion for the independents in campus affairs.
A growing feeling that there was a gross misman-
agment of student interests by the fraternity parties
which have secured control of the campus was cryr-
tallized by last week's election fraud. Coupled wit>

K. B. W. Disagrees With the Crane College Javelin
The Editor:
' In regard to the editorial reprinted in the Daily
ar Saturday, entitled "Jabberwocky," it seems that{
ome comment is necessary. It is the easiest thingj
o paint Russian propaganda in the shape of a gro-
esque monster, if the writer is attempting to be
musing. However, if he tries to down Russia by
riticism of certain articles in a Soviet daily, he is
ghting on thin ground.
The article quoted from the Moscow News, pointed
ut the fact that American worker's children being
ppressed and undernourished, are unable to partake
f the full advantages which education could give
hem. Such statements cannot be doubted by those
'ho have studied the present conditions. It has
Yuen e:>timatped recentlv that neivlv twenty million
away all honors.
Loretta Young, as the Hatchet Man's wife, carries
a unique make-up admirablyand uses her artificial
almond eyes to excellent advantage.
For the plot, nothing more need be said than thatr
it concerns San Francisco's Tong wars. They, in fact
and fiction, have always been a source of mysterious
thrills. In this instance, they require the murder of
a best friend by the Hatchet Man, at the begiining
of the picture, and subsequent gruesome hatchetj
work thereafter.
In the shift of background from tht 'Frisco of 15
years ago to the 'Frisco of today, the opportunity for
Americanizing the flowery Chinese language appears,
and the directors have taken advantage of it, as
well as the opportunity to modernize the clothes and,
business of the Hatchet Man. It provides some inter-
esting shots.
The pictujre is well arrayed with Oriental costum-
ing and also supplied with the incidental music to
be expected, with a shot of jazz here and there, un-i
expected. Probably the best shot comes at the top-
notch conclusion, when a hatchet thrown at the eye
of an image breaks through the wall to crush the
villain's skull-the vengeance of the great god
Buddha.
Not much can be said for the short subjects
accompanying the Chinese feature. Even the news
reel is linking' in interest Tnonmuch Dunnino n the
