feature and editorial writing by
four classes, consisting of over
100 students.
Each year the students go'
through all the technical difficul-
ties of organizing a staff, getting
together writers, make-up men,
proof readers and headline writ-,
ers.
Cooperative Staff
A board of faculty editors, con-
s'isting of members of the depart-
ment, acts merely as an advisory
group.
"The board," says Prof. Wesley
H. Maurer, who heads the project,'!
"creates as many situations as
possible that develop students as
a cooperative member of a staff,
since cooperation and initiative
in assuming responsibility are so
large a part of successful journal-
ism."
By-Lines for All
Students develop their own
story ideas but receive approval
from their news source before
publication. Every article is by-
lined as a means of identifying
the individual writers.
Editorials are chosen from
among those writtenhby tworde-
partment classes in journalism.
Final editing is done at the Ann
Arbor News which publishes the
newspaper for the department.

By PHYLLIS KULICK
A plan for the proclamation of
a world federation directly
through the people and not
through the UN is snowballing
toward actuality with the calling
of a Peoples World Constituent
Assembly for 1950 in Geneva.
The movement began unassum-
ingly enough in England in Jan-
uary of 1946 when a group of
backbenchers from Parliament
led by Henry C. Usborne met to
consider the problems of the
peace. They refuted the two pre-
dominant trends of thought that
peace can be bought with dollars
or be enforced by power.
No Peace Without Law
IBeginning with the premise
that there can be no peace with-
out law, they reasoned that a

Direct World Federation Plan
Will BeDrafted by Assembly

Federalists officially endorsed the
plan.
Parliamentary groups in Great
Britain, France, Holland, Luxem-
berg, Italy and Belgium endorsed
world federation and stated their
readiness to back the movement.
Men like Earnest Bevin, Clement
Atlee, Paul Spaak, William Doug-
las, and Henry Cabot Lodge, Jr.,
climbed on the bandwagon.
Selecting Delegates
England is already setting up
electoral districts to select dele-
gates to the convention. On this
side of the international scene, a
meeting was called for the fall at
Princeton to create a plan for
electing delegates in the United
States.
As more and more political
leaders become convinced of the
need for World Federation the
dream of "peace in our time"
comes a little closer to realiza-
tion.

Students Cite
Social Needs
In Education
University curricula that train
technicians instead of citizens
came under fire from more than
600 students at the Michigan
Christian Student Convocation in
East Lansing.
The students agree in discus-
sion groups that the modern uni-
versity's stress on objectivity and
the scientific approach is produc-
ing social misfits. Efficiency in a
specialty is inadequate prepzra -
tion for the problems of conmmu-
nal life, they concluded.
Bishop R. S. Emrich, of the
Protestant Episcopal Church,
charged that modern universities
are "intellectual cafeterias," with
no overall policy for balanced
meals. He recommended an em-
phasis upon Christian concepts in
the universities since Christian-
ity "is a struggle for order in hu-
man affairs."

DOG ADOPTS CHICK--Laddie, German shepherd, looks at a

He whimpers when it is out of his sight.
MYSTERY FELINE:
Chem Profs Assume New
Functions as Kitten Keepers

By JO MISNER
Members of the chemistry de-
partment have viewed numerous
chemical and physical reactions
in the past without "losing their
equilibrium."
But a recent biological phe-
nomena which took place between
the new and old chemistry build-
ings has the department all agog.
This disconcerting event was
the discovery at 9 a.m. yesterday
of a tiny kitten in the combus-
tion room between the two build-
ings. An unnamed professor spied
the kitten through a hole in the
wall made by construction work-
ers who are now knocking down
parts of the walls for entrances
between the buildings.
Origin a Mystery
The parentage of the foundling
was clothed in mystery. The only
means of entrance to the combus-
tion room was a six-inch lead
pipe. No other traces of cats or

kittens were found in the build-'
ing.
The kitten's eyes are still closed,
and various authorities estimate
its age as somewhere between 2
and 5 days.
The orphan kitten has been
adopted temporarily by doting
professors and is making its
home in the main office of the
chem building.
Christened 'Benzene'
The kitten, dubbed "Benzene"
(C-6 for short), is living in luxury
on a white fur mitten-bed. Her
meals are administered through a
medicine dropper by top-notch
chemical authorities.
Though the chemistry profes-
sors are doing everything in their
power to make "Benzene" com-
fortable, they expressed a deep
concern over the kitten's future.
As a matter of fact, they will be
quite happy to turn "Benzene"
over to any layman who promises
to give the kitten a "good home."

world government is needed
which has the authority to make
and enforce laws applicable to in-
dividuals. There was less and less
prospect that the UN would take
an about face on its present pol-
icy of national sovereignty. But
they believed that the people
were ready and ahead of their
statesmen in the quest for world
government.
And so the plan for the people
themselves arising and proclaim-
ing a world federation was born.
It was proposed that a Peoples'
World Constitutent Assembly
meet in 1950 to draft the charter
of World Goveijnment.
Delegates to the convention
would be unofficially elected in as
many countries as possible on the
basis of one delegate per million
of population.
Ratification Procedures
Two possible procedures for
ratificationswere seen.d Fist, it
would be submitted to the UN for
approval. If this failed, the dele-
gates would have the democratic
right to submit the draft directly
to their national legislatures for
formal ratification.
Groups in the United States
were quick to follow up the pro-
posal. The Hutchins group in
Chicago drew up the first con-
crete draft of a World Govern-
ment. A World Republic group
was organized to back the plan.
