NIGHT EDITOR: GEORGE VAN VLECK
iterfraternity Coun ci.
Ould Shirk Duty .
S TUDENT self-government suf-
fered a distinct set-back in the
eyes of close observers Wednesday night when a
proposal was offered to have the faculty members
of the Interfraternity Council Judiciary Commit-
tee sit as a special Indictment Board to hear the
initial evidence in support of alleged violations of
rushing rules.
Self-government naturally implies self-disci-
pline and self-punishment, and the plan to put
the faculty members of the committee in the
saddle and leave out the students is an admis-:
sion of weakness on the part of the student mem-,
bers. Unless students are willing to accept the re-
sponsibility, however onerous it may be, of con-
ducting trials, it is difficult to see how we can
have student government.
The reason advanced for the proposal-that
the board would afford more secrecy to the in-
vestigation proceedings and hence encourage the
presentation of accusations -is not a valid one,
since under the present system, the proceedings of
the Judiciary Committee are kept secret, and the 1
names of parties presenting evidence'or charges
are not divulged.
The point of view of the students on the com-
rnittee is apparently grounded in a desire to be
able to say after the matter is closed that they
did not have anything to do with it, that it was
done by the indictment board.
Of course we grant that it is not a pleasant
task to sit in judgment upon another fraternity,
lut this objection is only a minor consideration
compared with the fact that the responsibility
for enforcing the council rules lies more than with
anyone else with council officials.
There is a distinct contrast between the attitude
expressed in the proposals of Wednesday night
and the recent actions of the Undergraduate
Council on Student Affairs. On one hand we have
a dodging of responsibility by seeking to have the
faculty step in and take the brunt of the meanest
part of the job. On the other we have a group of
students passing judgment on others, even close
friends in some cases, fulfilling their unpleasant
duty willingly.

To The Editor:
When we came back to the campus this fall
we were greeted by a group of campus politicians
shouting, "Have you signed the NRA pledge?"
Among those few who refused to sign were those,
who recognized that: 1) They hired no help and.
therefore their support could at best be only sec-
ondary. (2) They would not be able to distinguish
between those concerns which were really living
up to the code and those who had only raised
prices and put up a picture of a bird. (3) We
are all associated with an institution which is
not attempting to live up to the ideals of the
NRA (the University).
Nevertheless many signed this pledge, among
them some fraternity men. The pledge implied
that they would try to live up to the spirit of the
NRA. When it was pointed out that they violated
it most seriously they hid behind a legal tech-
nicality and the same old excuse as all other vio-
lators have used "We can't afford to pay a fair
wage."
What became of all the nice cards signed by
the supporters of the NRA?
-Student.
EDITOR'S NOTE: As reported in The
Daily, issue of November 7, Albert J. Koepcke,
special agent of the NRA in Detroit, and A.
J. Barnaud, district compliance director, have
ruled that campus fraternities and sororities,
which do not operate for profit, and which
do not cater to the general public and do not
compete with restaurants, are completely ex-
empt from the NRA blanket or restaurant
codes, or any variants thereof.

Ten O'clock Boat
Stand close --I want to hold your arm and lean
To watch that stick that's tangled in the waves.
Now it's beneath the boat . . . How queerly that
bright light
Away out there beyond the point behaves!
See, there's the lighthouse . . . That must be a
ship -
That green light and that blotch of smoke against
the moon.
Stand close, the wind is blowing cold tonight;
I think we'll be inside the harbor pretty soon.
Look, when a big wave comes and lifts us up
The land slips down and only sky is there;
Stand close - the next dip down I want to see
You blot that biggest star out with your hair.
I Son et
O trouble not, impatient one, the heart
With vain command from the impassioned will,
Or strive to make the thing ungrown fulfill
Conceptions from its certainties apart;
Because the quick mind sees the fragile start
Of some deep thing within it, voiceless still,
Scourge not the pulse for its persistent chill
Before a fire transcending all its art.
The rose that trembles into birth at dawn,
And knows the bright impatience of the sun
All warm upon its slowly flushing cheek,
Uncurls no petal till the time has gone;
Each knows, unhastened full perfection won -
The rose its hour, the heart its time to speak.

AUUSTRALIA'S
COMEBACK
Australia, one of the first countries to feel the'
world depression, now claims a more enviable
leadership in being the first to work out national
recovery in accordance with a planned program.
The recent budget speech of Prime Minister J. A.
Lyons gave justification for the claim, for red
ink had turned to black, the business chart again
showed an upward line and Mr. Lyons found it
possible to announce the modification of numer-
ous drastic economies.
Australia's recovery plan has much in common
with that of the United States. It differed in in-
ception, however, being framed in 1931 at a con-
ference of Premiers and Treasurers of the six
states rather than by the leadership of a national
administration. The budget was balanced and all
government expenditures were reduced by 20 per
cent; a parallel to our own New Deal's budget
balancing and reduction of expenses by 25 per
cent. Economy measures included reduction in
payments to veterans, as here. Another step was
the conversion of state and Federal debts to lower
rates of interest, for a saving estimated by Mr.
Lyon at £1,280,000 annually. This process has just
been started in the United States. We have also
followed Australia's example of levying emergency
taxes, providing mortgage relief and constructing
public works.
The Australian Premier, who is also Common-
wealth Treasurer, now is able to announce an ex-
cess of revenue over expenditure totaling £3,547,-
000, representing an increase in receipts of £7,527,-
000 over last -yer's estimate. Although the fall
in gold prices for Australia's exports offset the
advantage derived from England's departure from
the gold standard, the total value of exports in-
creased more than £4,000,000. The Common-
wealth's credit improved, and Australian bonds
now enjoy high ratings.. .
This country hopes for the day when it will
hear good news similar to that imparted in Mr.
Lyons' message, namely: reductions in taxes on
personal and corporation income, on insurance
company earnings, on rentals, on land, on sales
and on shipping owned abroad, totaling £7,490,000.
At the same time, the Government announces in-
creases in old-age and superannuation pensions,
in war pensions, in payments to farmers and in
public works expenditures.

HE GOES RATHER FAR
Upton Close went rather far when he told a
Detroit audience that Americans "must realize
their existence is threatened" by Japanese im-
perialism. The author's familiarity with the rise
of the Japanese in the Orient, which makes his
report of Pacific affairs worth hearing, seems to
have led him in this instance to an excessively
alarmist conclusion.

The Japanese are the first people of the Orient
to adopt the economic and military weapons of
the Occident, and to challenge the white man in
the Far East. They are today a new industrial na-
tion bidding against older industrial nations for
the trade of the raw material countries of Asia. In
this competition they have many natural advan-
tages, to which they do not hesitate to add the
use of military force when military force is expe-
dient. Their exploits in Manchuria and Northern
China are well known because of their military
character. What may not be so clear to all in this
country is the fact the Japanese also are con-
ducting aggressive trade wars against British,
Dutch, and American interests in India, Malaysia,
and the Philippines. In these conflicts the Jap-
anese are having considerable success without the
