SILVERMAN Teacher Organizations . - A T THIS TIME of the year we are fortunate in being able to witness the annual meeting of the National Education Association which, in the deepest years of our current depression, proved a medium for incisive criticism of American social and economic phe- nomena. It was at the 1935 meeting of this organization that Charles Beard, the eminent historian and one of America's most sympathetic liberals, uttered the famous passage in which he assured us that no decent person would touch William Randolph Hearst with a ten foot pole. Therefore, if adequately publicized, the expres- sions of opinion at these meetings signify a cer- tain vigor and life in American social and eco- nomic affairs. Wednesday's session of the convention of the department of superintendence was involved in strong differences of opinion on the issue of teacher's organizations. Maintaining the "ivory tower" theory was Dean William F. Russell of Teachers College, Columbia University, and op- posed' to him were Professors Jesse H. Newlon and George S. Counts of his staff. Earlier in the day Professor Newlon had made a strong recommendation for teacher organi- zations. Later, in a formal dinner speech Dean Russell criticized the idea in the following words as reported by the New York Times of Feb. 25: "I deprecate the prevailing tendency for teachers to organize in associations devoted to their own betterment, to salary increases, to hours of work, to pensions. That is why I hate to see delegations of teachers descend upon the State Capitols and bludgeon legislatures into line. "This is not the duty of the teacher. This is why I hate to see efforts to bring teachers into one intellectual group-to bring them into one. party, Right or Left-to make them class con- scious and to identify them with organizations of labor." tion of their livelihoods even as the bees store honey or the squirrels, nuts. Individually the teacher can hardly hope to alleviate his conditions. One Columbia profes- sor or one Chicago school teacher cannot exert the necessary pressure on their state legislatures to restore pay cuts or rescind loyalty oath bills. One worker on the long General Motors assembly line cduld not safely have asked for wage in- creases for the same occupation for which hun- dreds were competing. It required an organi- zation of all the automobile workers in Flint and surrounding cities to work for better conditions. From the point of view of the economic status of the teacher, the usefulness of organization cannot be refuted. It is the fear of Dean Rus- sell, and of many others, that such organization will make teachers incapable -of occupying a position of scientific detachment towards their work. This argument has been raised in the con- sideration of organization among newspaper workers. An analagous argument has been ap- plied to almost every type of labor organization. The answer is, in the case of labor, newspaper workers and teachers; that it is necessary to meet pressure with pressure. Teacher organiza- tipns resist the pressure of groups who wish to dictate, as certain patriotic groups have done, what history books shall be used. It is in fact one safeguard against infringements upon aca- demic freedom by groups whose primary interest lies otside of education. The work of the Amer- ican Association of University Professors has from time to time demonstrated that this is true. THe FORU Cordial Invitation To the Editor: The letter in the Forum February 26 is an excellent example of the facility with which a student can take an immature approach coupled with a certain amount of real information. The Peace Council in presenting te movie Dealers in Death to the student body was unaware that withany one would be so naive as to see in it any statement to the effect that the munitions mak- ers were the sole cause of war. Nor was the movie merely advocating the abolition of mu- nitions industries. The realist, in seeing the im- possibility of such action, should compromise and realistically see the possibilities of national- ization of the munitions industries, thus remov- ing whatever incentive to war is provided by the avarice of these firms. May I suggest that economic pressure as a war cause may be largely psychological, and that careful study of the consumption statistics of those three economically starved countries may show that their complaints are not entirely jus- tified. Mr. Realist's conclusion that war is in- evitable is all too well taken. In view of the stress and conflict in the world today, war indeed seems inevitable. With what is at least a tempo- rary collapse of collective security, we may best turn to keeping ourselves out of war. The idea that these nations are going to choose us as their victim is absurd; what we should most fear is the possibility of being drawn into a foreign conflict. Defense armament is indeed necessary, but does this mean billion dollar appropriations such as that of last year which promises to be even exceeded in the coming year? Already the House Appropriations Committee is considering a Naval appropriation of $536,000,000 as a starter for this next year. Does defense include a floating dry- dock so constructed as to be used off the coast of Japan or some other hypothetical enemy? I submit as a concrete suggestion that our neu- trality program must be strengthened. A realist 4who seeks to accomplish this should write his congessman urging the passage of the Pittman bill, S. J. Res. 51, with strengthening amend- ments on cash and carry. He should also urge that inquiry be made into the possibility of neutral trade cooperation in the event of war, and that the State Department pursue this course as far as possible. In seeking to relieve economic pressure, he may write to his Senator advising approval of the extension of the trade agreement policy as embodied in H. J. Res. 96, already passed by the House and now in the Senate Finance Committee. It is indeed true that the future of world peace is dark; but I submit that the realist may, by remaining alert, at least attempt to minimize the danger of our participation in any foreign war. The mad idea that a bright new world may arise out of the debris of a new conflict should certainly be disproved by any realistic apprecia- tion of the fact that most of the factors now working for war have their seeds in the peace that ended the war to save democracy. I hereby extend a cordial invitation to Realist to attend the meeting of the Peace Council next Wednesday at 7:30 in the Union. -Julian H. Orr. Suicide To the Editor: May I call to your attention, as an example of civilization in the Third Reich, the following item taken from the "London Times," column six' on page thirteen of the issue of Wednesday, February 3rd, this year, under the heading "Mu- nich Professor's Suicide" and dated at Munich the previous day: "The funeral took place in Munich today of Professor Moritz Heymann, a painter, aged 65 and formerly the proprietor of one of the best-known private art schools in Mu- nich, which was much attended by British art students. Early last year Professsor Hey- mann, who. being of Jewish extraction, was BENEATH **** * *# * IT ALL h4..__ By Booth Wifliams OW WOULD YOU LIKE to drop out of school right now and take an all-expense cruise to Spain and return absolutely free. If you want to you may visit Russia before you come home and see the sights of the far-famed Soviet Union. All you have to do is to agree to fight for the loyalists in the Spanish civil war. Silly. Maybe, but that's what George Quick, Monroe junior and well-known campus writer intends to do within the next two weeks. The bills are footed by a recruiting agent of the Madrid government who has already spent some time in the, Detroit district and enjoyed a good deal of success in interesting adventurers in his proposal The idea, of course, is to bolster both the num- bers and morale of the defenders, as well as to gain the sympathy of the United States. "It's a chance to see the last stand of repre- sentative government in Europe, a chance to see history, an epoch of history, in the making,' George pointed out when I asked him why he was planning to go out of his way to find a war. "Once I graduate, I'll have to settle down and work for the rest of my life," Quick went on, "and this looks like a real opportunity to see Europe, find out what war is really like, taste adventure, and watch history being made." Whether or not Quick will be able to complete arrangements and get his passport in time to make the dead line, is not certain, but already he has applied for credentials and the necessary papers. If all goes well this time next month will see him a sworn soldier of the loyalist armies of Spain, striving to free that land from the power- ful fascist forces which continue to press forward and squeeze it in their unrelenting grasp. Thoughts of the Gargoyle, for which he wrote, and of the Phi Bete key which he had practically assured himself of will be but dim recollections to George as the guns boom out and Madrid is strangely quiet. DEAR BONTH Please tell me, Bonth, who was the guy who was telling people that the score was 201-13 after the game Saturday night up at your office? He must have been higher than the score. -Puzzled Faculty Reader. Dear Puzzled Faculty Reader, You're telling me. Apparently he couldn't even remember the same line. I called about eleven to find out myself and he told me Michigan won 2-1 in overtime. "Strangest game I ever saw," he said. "Both teams had covered the baskets with cellophane and there was no scoring during the regular game. "When the referee called a foul on Gee for parking too close to a dog pound, an enthusiastic rooter dropped a match from the balcony and burned a hole big enough for Ohio to assume a commanding lead. "With ten seconds left, however, Houdini Townsend transformed the cow hide into a three fingered bowling ball and with a deft motion burst the Buckeye's cellophae to eke out a thrilling victory." I really think you got cheated, if it was a good story you were looking for, but all kidding aside, I don't have the faintest idea who it could have been, unless some joker sneaked in from outside and picked all the calls off the main switch in the Gargoyle office. Sounds like some sophomoric sports hopeful, to me. Sincerely, Bonth Williams, F YOU'RE A HESPI, boy, you're really tops these days on the Michigan State Campus. The Hespi's have outdone themselves, and now when one of them walks beside the Winding Cedar or strolls down the East Lansing Streets in the afternoon sun, there follows in his wake, the murmur of admiring, almost awestruck voices with only "He's a Hespi" audible. On the Spartan Campus the Hesperions, a local fraternity, and the Phi Delts are bitter rivals, and because they are bitter rivals, they contin- ually seek to outdo one another in putting on the dog. So it was that the Hespi's decided really to throw a dance, throw a dance that would c.ause the little green monsters to play a tattoo on the head of each and every Michigan State member of Phi Delta Theta. The Hespi's began by getting the brothers to toss something approaching two sawbucks each into the hat. Then they got in touch with a couple of booking agencies and finally signed Art Kassel to play a closed dinner dance at the Hotel Olds. Only the Hespi's and their. chosen guests will be there on the great night. The Campus is agog. Co-eds have discovered new qualities in old Hesperions, and new Hesperions who have no qualities. Everybody is talking, "Did you hear, Art Kas- sel . . . the Hespi's . . . at The Olds . . . closed .-. Oh, I hope so." And to top it all off with, the Phi Delts are half crazy. So, although the Brothers Hesperion may not eat for a month to come, they have struck a great blow, and their triumph is, for the mo- ment, quite complete.

He does, however, state that he recognizes the fact that salaries have been cut and that Amer- ican schools and the educational system have suffered for it, but, he maintains, the teacher has no concern in correcting the faults; that is for the citizen and the parent. Obviously Dean Russell, being a dean, not con- fronted by the same problems that confound teachers, is overlooking the realities of the teach- er's position. If state legislatures pass spurious loyalty oath bills, fostered by all the professional patriots, the "159 per centers"; if city and state legislatures decide to execute pay cuts and lengthen working hours, Dean Russell would ad- vise teachers to wait for corrections until state legislatures once again find the problems called to their attention. State legislators are usually busy men, not acquainted with every phase of every problem THE SCREE N 1 r Three Smart Girls AT THE MICHIGAN1 This picture scores highly for sheer all-around appeal. It is one of theI most fascinating productions to ap-I pear in a long time. Universal Pic- tures has cast a refreshing new star in a gaily moving story.

The three girls are driven to action by theI grief of their mother who is faced f with the fate of seeing her divorcedl husband, whom she still loves, snatched up by a creature of a wom- an. The girls run off to New York to save their father (Charles Winn- inger) from the impending remar- riage. They burst into the scene just in time to cause the designing Miss Donna Lyons (Binnie Barnes) and her meddling mother' (Alice Bradley) some very embarassing moments.
