NIGHT ED]TOlR: RICHA DG. HERSHEY
On Ihe Ldnucation
Of Women . .
OLLEGES were attacked for being
lax in preparing women to meet
the complexities of present-day life by speakers
who included ,college administrators and career
women at the luncheon meeting of the New York
VLeague of Business and Professional Women Sat-
urday.
We single these criticisms out for attention be-
cause we believe that they embody a great and
prevalent misconception about the function of the
liberal arts college.
The fallacy that "there's plenty of room at the
top," held as prevailing among graduates on the
threshold of careers, is "attributable in no small
measure to the colleges' neglect of their responsi-
bility in that they had given the girls a great fnd
of . specific information without sufficient con-~
sideration to personal judgment," Miss Constance
Warren, president of Sarah Lawrence College, was
quoted as saying by the New York Timms.I
Five aspects of the training required by a stu-
dent who must seek a livelihood were cited by Miss
Warren as follows:
"To inculcate the ability of getting along with
people, through the understanding of human prob-
lems under expert psychiatric direction, by stim-
ulating interest in a greater variety of extra-
curricular activities.
"The teaching of initiative, independent think-
ing and a sense of personal responsibility - culti-
vating thinking instead of memorizing, by atten-
tion to observation and discussion, rather than
pure recitation and quizzing -- and to discourage
the habit of leaning on authority.
"Teaching students to see and realize the always
greater possibilities inherent in any achievement,
rather than a resignation to do the given job and
"let it go at that.
"Attention to, and insistence on, the application
of courage, one of the most necessary factors in
meeting competitive obstacles, such as are en-
countered in business.
"Stressing the extreme importance of clarity
and vision by abandoning the purely 'logical an-
rangement' of courses and substituting a regime in
which the students might encounter some of the
real problems met in daily life."
These criticisms of the liberal arts college arise,

we feel, because of a mistaken conception of its!
aims. Women who want to be educated in the
sense in which Miss Warren uses the term do
not belong in the liberal arts colleges.
It is true that the liberal arts college seeks
to arouse an "understanding of human problems,"
but not by "stimulating an interest in a greater
variety of extra-curricular activity." Even more,
the liberal arts college strives to inculcate "clar-
ity and vision," but certainly not by "substituting
a regime in whi h Uhe stients inight enOunter
some of the ral probiems met mn daily life.'
The incul.athion o e tsc ideals comes through
an associat':on wit the culture of tradition, as
addcd ) td mudiLieLd by contemporary civiliza-
ton. The eica aiariichy in which we live is
a product of a philosophy which confuses the
demoel : , ideal iln Odu(c,tion with the utilitarian;
the ay to restore 'culuivated thinking" to a world
of jazz. immediacy is not to "discourage the habit
of leaning on authority,"b'cut rather to repair the
general ignorance of tradition. The way to teach
a sense of personal responsibility in the modern

iness of the liberal arts college only in the sense
that a cultivated mind has character. In the
practical and immediate sense in which Miss War-
ren uses it - character to overcome business ob-
stacles -- it lies within the province of another
type of educational institution. Women who want
to learn to cook, to sew, to take dictation or to
learn some way of earning a livelihood ought not
expect these things from a liberal arts college.
Training for specific tasks is the job of technical
and professional schools, and should be undertaken
only with the firm structure of a liberal arts train-'
ing underneath.
With Miss Warren's criticism of the passive
lecture system -pure recitation and quizzing -
we are in agreement, and intend to make it the
subject of a future editorial. But with her de-
mands upon the liberal arts college for more
practical educational ideals we are not in sym-
pathy.

Recognize The True Diagnosis
To the Editor:
Many students appreciate the encouragement'
given by The Michigan Daily to the attempts
to form a Student Senate on campus for the free
discussion of current problems. The need for such
a body was amply demonstrated by your editorial'
"Alternative to Chaos."
Your editorial "Domination By Radicals" implies
that radical leadership is bad. Radicals may
dominate discussions of social problems, not be-
cause of their organization or undue articulateness,
but because they have the correct diagnosis and
solution of current questions. Maybe truth is on
their side.
To the best of my knowledge groups such as
the now defunct National Student League and
'he Student League for Industrial Democracy,
and the existing Michigan Student Alliance wel-
come students of all beliefs to their meetings
so that any question may be amply discussed by
having all viewpoints presented. The reason why
their invitation to the more conservative students
has been overlooked may be due to the fact that
the latter are not too sure of their position. Such
remarks as "Government - pitifully inadequate"
and "College students, bewildered at the illogical-
ities of poverty stricken age of plenty" in your edi-
torial "Alternative to Chaos" seems to indicate
that that is the true reason for radical domina-
tion.
Let lIs not damn leadership by the cheap polit-
ical trick of calling opinions contrary to our own
"Radical," "Communist," or "Bolshevik." Let us
try to meet their challenge by intelligently mar-
shalled facts. If in free discussion they have the
better case, let us be broadminded enough to learn
from them for, after all, that is what free dis-
cussion is for.
May the true side win.
-harold Ross, Grad.
'Struggle' For 'Battle'
To the Editor:
The German nation will endure long after Hitler
has become but a name in the textbooks, and her
youth will be pursuing science and culture at Hei-
delberg long after the Nazis have been forgotten.
Which merely makes it difficult to understand why
Mr. Abernethy and ex-Professor Levi should shout
hysterically that attendance at Heidelberg's anni-
versary celebration is tantamount to "embracing
a new philosophy of totalitarianism, radicalism,
and nationalism." Perhaps there is some confu-
sion about the matter; it is Heidelberg's birthday
party, not Hitler's, that we've been invited to help
celebrate. In these times, when fanaticism is ram-
pant there is all the more reason why we should
honor a university whose history has been con-
sistently one of liberal advancement, who contrib-
uted to the reformation, and on whose doorstep

I the German Revolution of 1848 was practically
born. Let us not counter with hysteria and more
fanaticism.
There is no sinister "significance" in the fact
that this anniversary comes at the same time that
the Olympic games are being held in Germany, as
Mr. Saul Kleiman suggested in a front-page article
in the Saturday Daily. He quotes some British
journal to prove that the date of the anniversary
has been advanced a year. He might have written,
a more reliable article had he first consulted the
German encyclopedias in the library. The Univer-
sity of Heidelberg was founded in 1386, it cele-
brated its quincentenary in 1886, so everything is
coming off according to tradition and schedule,
and Saul Kleiman can ease his mind on that point.
Now I am not a Hitler sympathizer and am
heartily opposed to his principles, but in the in-
terests of accuracy I would like to ask Professor-
Emeritus Levi in his future letters to The Daily
to translate the name of Hitler's book "My
Struggle." Cassell's dictionary lists five English
cquivaients for "Kanipf," but "battle" is not one
of them. It is a minor point, I know, but I hope
Professor Levi was not as careless in translating
those excerpts from the book for the readers of
The Daily.

Don't telegraph; telephone. For the telephone

to be investigated, the company appears to be
able to furnish records. Why not to subscribers?

A Washington
BYSTANDER
By KIRKE SIMPSON
W ASHINGTCN, Malch 16. - There
seems to be a tradition among the
Kentucky Breckinridges for political
"walkouts."
Against his pesonal as well as the
Breckenlidge background, the action
of Col. Henry Br'eckinlridge in walking
out on the Roosevelt administration to
the extent of launching a boom of his
own for the Democratic nomination is
not surprising. Nor is his selection of
Maryland as a state wherein to dem-
onstrate without precedent.
The colone once walked out on
the Wilson administration. He was
assistant secretary of war under Sec-
retary Garrison and when the latter
bolted the Wilson cabinet in the 1916
controversy over Garrison's "con-
tinental army" idea as against the
federalized national guard preferred
by Congress, young Breckinridge went!
along.
ONG BEFORE THAT, however,
another Kentucky Breckinridge,
John Cabell Breckinridge, walked out
on his party ticket although he was
vice president at the time. That
Breckinridge was nominated for the
presidency at Baltimore by Demo-
cratic seceders from the regular party
convention which named Stephen A.
Douglas to oppose Abraham Lincoln.
The odd part of that 1860 contest
was the way the popular and electoral
votes were divided. Lincoln got 1,-
866,000 popular votes and 180 elec-
toral votes. Douglas got 1,341,000
popular and 12 electoral votes. Breck-
inridge got 874,000 popular and 72
electoral votes. He carried Alabama.
Arkansas, Delaware, Florida, Georgia,
Louisiana, Mar'yland, Mississippi.
North and South Carolina and Texas
and ran second to Lincoln. Perhaps
that bit of history figures in Col.
Henry Breckinridge's seemingly for-
lorn effort to prevent President
Roosevelt's renomination.y
S)U4VIORED willingness of the Su-
promo Court to sit beyond the
normal May date for closing the pres-
ent term in order to expedite deci-
sions on New Deal measures yet to
be tested constitutionally might not
be an altogether welcome note in some
New Deal ears. With so important
matters as the anti-utility holding
company bill and the right of the
government to loan states or munici-
palities the money to set up power'
distributing systems in this cate-
gory, it remains to be seen whether
the justice department attempts to
take advantage of reported court
willingness to trim a couple of weeks
ofl the usual vacation period.
The New Deal needs a rounding
out of its TVA victory such as win-
ning a test suit over loans to muni-
cipalities would involve. If no effort
to push such a test into the high
court this term is made, however, the
TVA decision will be the last word on
the matter until after election.
And between now and next October
when the next Supreme Court term
opens, almost anything could happen,
even a change on the bench.
