Actions Affecting Campus
Government Are Studied
By National Federation
(Special to The Daily)
MINNEAPOLIS, Jan. 3. - With
New Year's resolutions drafted and
ratified, 200 student delegates Sun-
day concluded the 15th annual con-
gress of the National Student Fed-
eration.
Discussed by student leaders repre-
senting 108 member colleges in ses-
sions on the University of, Minnesota'
campus were resolutions and recom-
mendations affecting principles of
student government and student
action in national and international
affairs.
Keynote of the conference was
the general emphasis on joint stu-
dent-faculty control in the adminis-
tration of colleges and universities.
Student control was stressed by the
congress though it was pointed out;
that faculty membership in control-,
ling bodies added factors of experi-
ence and permanence to such organ-,
izations.
Unanimous condemnation of the
war in Europe and of aggressor na-
tions and a unanimous endorsement
of strict American neutrality feat-,
ured the congress' stand on interna-
tional politics. In a series of reso-
lutions, the convention reaffirmed
its stand opposing the United States'
entry into any foreign war and called
on American college students to unite
in opposition to any such. move.
Also condemned by the conference
were tactics and practices employed
by the Dies Committee.

THURSDAY, JAN. 4, 1940
VOL. L. No. 71
Notices
Smoking in University Buildings:
Attention is called to the general rule
that smoking is prohibited in Univer-
sity buildings except in private of-
fices and assigned smoking rooms
where precautions can be taken and
control exercised. This is neither a
mere arbitrary regulation nor an at-
tempt to meddle with anyone's per-
sonal habits. It is established and
enforced solely with the purpose of
preventing fires. In the last seven
years, 30 of the total of 80 fires re-
ported, or 37 per cent, were caused by
cigarettes or lighted matches. To be
effective, the rule must necessarily
apply to bringing lighted tobacco in-

o or through University buildings and
o the lighting of cigars, cigarettes,
and pipes within buildings-nclud-
ng such lighting just previous to go-
ing outdoors. Within the last few
years a serious fire was started at the
[exit from the Pharmacology building
by the throwing of a still lighted
'match into refuse waiting removal at
[the doorway. If the rule is to be en-
forced at all, its enforcement must
begin at the building entrance. Fur-
ther, it is impossible that the- rule
should be enforced with one class of
persons if another class of persons
disregards it. It is a disagreeable
and thankless .task to "enforce" al-
most any rule. This rule against the
use of tobacco within buildings is per-
haps the most thankless and difficult
of all, unless it has the willing sup-
port of everyone concerned. An ap-
