The containment of Commu-
nism and prevention of another
world war were labeled the great-
est problems of our day, yester-
day, by Howard L. Barkdull,
chairman of the House of Dele-
gates of the American Bar Asso-
ciation.
Speaking at the Founder's Day
dinner of the Lawyer's Club, Bark-
dull called for the training. of
young lawyers for public service."
to aid in settling these difficult
issues confronting the United
States in international affairs."
"Greater emphasis can be
placed upon public law and the
training of lawyers for public life,

particularly in the realm of inter-
national relations," he said.
"There must be greater incen-
tive for able men to enter public
service," he added. "rather than
having the cream of the crop serv-
ing private enterprise."
"A government of law means in
the final analysis a government by
lawyers," Burkdull said, adding
that the legal profession is not
contributing all that it is capable
of.
"It is time that the legal pro-
fession resumed the position of
leadership which it held in the
early days of this nation."

By ART HIGBEE
Such present-day philosophies
as surrealism and existentialism
are attempts to find, in the dream-
image world of infants and primi-
tive men, something superior to
abstract analysis, Dr. E. A. Have-t
lock said yesterday.
Dr. Havelock, associate profes-
sor of classics at Harvard, said that
the tense self-consciousness of
modern man can be explained by
his struggle to relate this .dream-
image world of concrete experi-
ence to abstract anaylsis.
He said that man thirsts to re-
solve this struggle but is "baffled
by the thought involved."
Too Much Work
The result is that men "reject
thought because they tire of the

effort of thinking," he remarked.
Their next step, Dr. Havelock
said, is to try to avoid the issue by
attempting to boil things down to
a personal philosophy.
But the issue remains, and so
does the tension, he said.
This, then, is the trouble with
our civilization-the ever-increas-
ing compulsion to think abstract-
ly versus the yearning for con-
crete, dynamic simplicity, Dr.
Havelock continued.
Pity the Poor Artist
Chief victim of this struggle, he
said, is the artist, who is at once
attracted by two opposing forces:
subjective experience and abstract
thought.
This struggle is nothing new;
however. The Greeks started it
more than 2,000 years ago, when
out of concrete experience they
first developed abstract thought.
And thus the Greeks were the first
moderns, Dr. Havelock remarked.
He said that they were the first
to differentiate emotion from
logic, sense from reason, the con-
ventional from the moral and the
expedient from the ideal.
Vanderbilt To

Arthur T. Vanderbilt, newly ap-
pointed Chief Justice of the New
Jersey Supreme Court, will deliver
the fourth annual series of Wil-
liam W. Cook Lectures, entitled
"Men and Measures in the Law" in

The lectures are the result of
the founding of the William W.

Michigan alumnus.
Last year's lecturer was John
Maurice Clark, professor of eco-
nomics at Columbia University on
the topic "Alternative to Serf-
dom."

Stamps May
Bring Food
Foreign postal stamps will be
turned into food for Europe
through a stunt originated by the
Student Religious Association
Public Affairs Committee.
The stamps will be auctioned
off on April 28 and the proceeds
used to fill food requests from
Europe, Committee Chairman Lew
Towler announced. The commit-
tee needs more stamps and is ap-
pealing to students to donate any
that they have received from
abroad.
All stamp donations may be left
at Lane Hall, Towler said. To
date the committee has responded
to personal overseas requests by
sending approximately 130 pounds
of food and clothing.
